Iran is going to host the 2022 Asian Men's Championship and our handball federation is looking for a coach, they were looking in past 1.5 years but still nothing.

they claimed they will announce the coach "next week" something like 10 times already but that "next week" never arrived, under pressure from media finally our federation published a list of their candidates. they claim they were very close to sign with each one of these guys in past 18 months but all of them changed their minds in last moment before signing the contract! money was never the problem. it was mostly because of the coronavirus situation here

 

:ESP David Davis

:CRO Zlatko Babic

:ISL Aron Kristjansson

:ESP Fernando Barbeito

:CRO Slavko Goluza

:CRO Vladimir Sola

:GER Michael Biegler

 

so there is a job opening here, if any of you guys know something about handball call our handball federation :d just being European is enough.

I was thinking about my personal hero Dagur Sigurdsson (who led Füchse Berlin to an absolutely epic Champions League win over Ademar Leon, arguably the best sports moment I've ever witnessed live, as in at the location/stadium :hyper:, incredible comeback with insanely attacking tactics), but apparently he's coaching the Japanese men for a few years already, including at the upcoming Olympics, cool! :d 

 

Well then...I'm afraid I have a job already, sorry :p

One more relatively easy Junior European Championship gold for Hungary in women's handball, just like in 2019. We have been sweeping these junior and youth events lately. At some point we have to deliver similar results in the adult competitions with these supposedly very talented generations, right? RIGHT?

The recent track record for :HUN in these women's U events:

 

2018 - Silver - Youth World

2018 - Gold - Junior World

2019 - Gold - U17 Euro

2019 - Gold - U19 Euro

2021 - Gold - U19 Euro

 

There are some serious issues with Hungarian handball if after these results we will still have a mediocre adult team by 2024.

Yes, it might sound like arrogance, but it was actually VERY easy :yikes:.
I watched most of the games (including last four) and it was total domination!

I already read negative comments about our lack of physicality compared to the others f.e. and there is probably negativity in the air like always, cause let's face it, we have always had many good placings, but won very little...

But hey! it is the first time that we are so far ahead of the rest of the world in youth sector. Idk but the purposes THIS TIME seem very very good, never like today.

HISTORY IS MADE! 

For the 1st time ever our women's u19 team qualify for the junior European championship! I have no words for this amazing and unbelievable result! 

 

And in August we'll have our boys, for the frist time ever, un the men's junior ECh. 

 

Amazing moment for Italian handball.

I got excited looking up our Handball federation's website and seeing the U19 women (also!?) won the U19 championship! But I guess the 'U19 EHF Championship' they won is a division below the 'U19 European Championship' that Hungary won. But hey, at least we won something!:cheer:

Lol, European Handball Federation fined the Norwegian women for not wearing revealing bikini bottoms during the bronze medal game at the European championships, but opting to go for less revealing shorts.

https://www.eurohandball.com/en/news/en/disciplinary-commission-imposes-a-fine-for-improper-clothing/

 

I wonder how many teams/athletes have been fined before for not showing enough instead of showing too much? :p 

 

Norwegian federation rightfully said they are completely behind the team and will pay the whole fine without any issue.

Important to add though that the match in question was in beach handball, not regular one. The rule they allegedly broke is stupid anyway.

    • I thought that was the case.  I just started watching skimo last year, but even then, I didn't recognize any of the women.  I recognized the top Swiss guy, I think.
    • Puripol Boonson seizes home men's 100m sprint gold after going sub-10 seconds in heats   https://www.olympics.com/en/news/sea-games-athletics-mens-100m-final-results-puripol-boonson   First Southeast Asian to go under ten seconds in the 100 meters.
    • Yes, that and a lot of the main medal contenders  either didn't have teams entered/or fielded B-C teams

    • Seriously wish Bialystok will be banned from any European competition and for long time.
    • Unexpected boost for Team .  They are at least going to have a credible excuse if anyone fails any drug tests.     American rapper Snoop Dogg has been named an 'honorary coach' for Team USA at next year's Winter Olympics.   The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) announced on Thursday the 54-year-old will take on "a volunteer role celebrating and supporting America's athletes off the field of play".   Snoop Dogg named 'honorary coach' for Team US at Winter Olympics - BBC Sport
    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
