PETALING JAYA: While the national shuttlers are already counting days to return to training on June 1, Soong Joo Ven and his fellow independent players are unsure when they will be able to step onto the court again.

The 24-year-old Joo Ven is hoping the Youth and Sports Ministry would also consider giving the professionals some leeway to restart their training soon.
