KUALA LUMPUR:
Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) doubles coaching director Rexy Mainaky will be recommending Chan Chong Ming’s replacement following the latter’s resignation as national women’s doubles coach on Wednesday.

BAM coaching and training committee chairman Kenny Goh expects Rexy to come up with the recommendation along with the annual year-end performance review for players and coaches within a month.

“Rexy will recommend Chong Ming’s replacement within a month. It could even be earlier than that,” he told Bernama.

BAM in a statement yesterday said they had reached the decision to accept Chong Ming’s resignation.

They said the 41-year-old left his position by mutual consent after joining BAM in July 2020.

On Tuesday, Kenny, who is also BAM secretary-general, said the annual year-end performance review which was supposed to be completed earlier has been postponed until this month after Rexy, who only reported for duty on Dec 1, requested for more time.

He said everyone from the management, coaching director, coaches and players should be accountable and responsible for the outcome, and didn’t rule out the possibility that some heads will roll.
