“For the final preparations before we leave, the players have undergone a training session to correct and improve all the weaknesses that we have identified during the Australian Tour Series, recently.

“With a few days left, each player and the team as a whole have focused on sharpening their set-play and individual skills.

“I hope that each player can maintain the momentum of the game well in the actual action later, besides continuing to maintain the fighting spirit and high team spirit in each of them, so that the mission to maintain the gold medal won in the last edition, can be realized,” he explained.
