Coaches play an important role in aiding both the development and growth of sports and athletes in the country.
Brunei Darussalam has appointed experienced coaches from overseas to guide athletes to reach the highest possible standards in both the regional and international scene. Their influence, management and coaching expertise led to multiple athletes sealing a number of podium finishes including gold in prestigious competitions.
Coaches also often design training programmes to help prepare athletes both mentally and physically in a challenging environment as well as fine-tuning their skills.
Brunei is known to have a history of high profile national coaches whose sports background makes them an ideal fit for the position. The wushu team has benefitted from a good coaching team including head coach Li Hui and assistant coach Zhao Chunjie.
