  • Zentara will provide sponsorship and the Planet Training digital platform for coaching methods, player development and talent scouting.
  • The club says stronger management systems and technology will help it meet the demands of top-flight competition.

Garudayaksa FC is entering Indonesia’s top football competition with a technology partnership designed to shape more than its finances. The club has named Zentara its main sponsor and will adopt the company’s Planet Training platform for coaching, player development and talent identification.

The agreement was announced in Jakarta on Friday, Sept. 4, 2026. Planet Training brings together coaching methods, player development and scouting, while allowing the club to preserve records of player progress and institutional knowledge.

Just one year ago, Garudayaksa was still competing in the second tier and Zentara had only just launched. Today, both of our organizations have grown rapidly.

Zentara Technologies co-founder and chief executive Regal Rauniyar Star said the partnership aimed to provide support beyond funding. “Just one year ago, Garudayaksa was still competing in the second tier and Zentara had only just launched. Today, both of our organizations have grown rapidly,” he said.

Most clubs lose institutional memory and records of player development whenever the coaching team changes. That is the gap we are trying to minimize so Indonesian football can transform.

· Darian NathanaelZentara’s co-founder and president explained the intended role of the digital platform.

Regal said Indonesia had abundant football talent, but systems and technology to develop that potential were not evenly available. Zentara co-founder and president Darian Nathanael said digital systems could help clubs maintain continuity when coaching staff change. “Most clubs lose institutional memory and records of player development whenever the coaching team changes. That is the gap we are trying to minimize so Indonesian football can transform,” he said.

Garudayaksa chief executive M Reza Anugrah described promotion to the top division as a major achievement and a new challenge. “Entering the top league is a major achievement for Garudayaksa FC, and competing at this level requires us to build an increasingly solid management structure,” he said. He added that technology could assist with administration and team development, allowing coaching staff to focus more closely on preparations and on-field needs.
