JAKARTA: The International Badminton Federation will penalize
athletes who refuse to attend a scheduled media conference, an
IBF official said here on Thursday.

IBF spokesman Keith Hawthorne said disciplinary action could
be taken against such players according to regulations. Penalties
are determined on a case-by-case basis.

The most common punishment is probation, which could end in
an athlete being permanently banned. -JP
