"The send-off of the 2026 Thomas and Uber Cup teams is a crucial moment, not only marking the beginning of the struggle but also strengthening the unity of the entire Indonesian badminton family. We believe that team strength is built not only through training and strategy, but also through trust and solidarity," said PBSI Chair Fadil Imran in an official statement on Wednesday.
Fadil Imran said that Indonesia's strength in badminton comes not only from technical aspects, such as training and strategy, but also from togetherness, trust, and team solidarity.

On that occasion, Fadil also thanked the coaches and support team for their hard work in preparing the athletes, both technically and mentally.
