Except 2 or 3 players, the current roster is pretty weak. You may have better players in your own team. It is a little presumptuous to suggest this NT is able to win the Africa's. Then what is the real plan in the short term?

Like i said in my speech, your NT have to compete in the Africa Tournament.
More importantly this season with the HCA !
Compete does not mean win the title in the short term but :
- scout the other teams
- take care of our TS
- work on our GS
We have to give the best we could and may be could we do an hold-up versus a better ranked team in a semi-final
Which probably would be OUR final

We have to developp some new young players too
I do not know the current profile of Fabian Pöll, Sean Dunker, Ad Hayden, Kopano Mase or Ayize Mini (for exemples) but this is the kind of players we have to train in the long term

Hi Ebene,


In the short term, we have to take advantage of the home court factor to try to go as far as possible. And I think that you can opt for a medal, although it will not be as simple as when Sebe, Motihala or Cebekhului were there.

Regards,

I am also training 3 players for the Senegalese NT


Do you plan to replace these Senegalese players by some South Africans if elected?

How many players will you select to begin the competition? The previous coach tended to fulfill the roster and wasn't able to manage bad game shapes or injuries. In addition he didn't know how the enthusiasm works. I hope you won't make the same mistakes. It was very annoying.

Hi Ebene,

The enthusiasm is very important in this game. I hope that a good use and the court factor gives us that extra we need.

I do not know the players we have but, in normal conditions, I would start with 10/12 players and add depending on the circumstances.

Regards,
jtot

Like i said, i was in the staff of France NT in season 49, France U21 in season 50 (bronze medal / European Tournament) and I was Lubnan NT coach for 4 seasons : if i do such mistakes, i'll just have to quit the game ^^. And i would not get the results that i had ...

How many players will you select to begin the competition?


10 or 12 players to start

This is somehow giving ammunition to the enemy. But I understand it is difficult to stop a training program.
