                    [Title] => Shuttlers will try their best versus world’s best
                    [Summary] => Ranged against the world’s best shuttlers, the national badminton team is quick to admit it may not contribute to the country’s gold medal haul in the 23rd Southeast Asian Games.


"I hate to say it but as for winning a gold medal, no, I don’t think we can do it ," said Martin Araneta, who replaced Butch Oreta as head coach last April.  "We are still a long way behind compared to other Southeast Asian countries."

Even a repeat of RP’s bronze medal finish in the previous SEAG in Vietnam is no guarantee, according to him.
