Det er vel landslagssjef for NT han stiller som kandidat til?

Hadde en del kontakt med han når jeg var landslagssjef sist. Norske aner og veldig dedikert.

Ser heller ikke ut til at OddgeirF. stiller som kandidat (per nå hvert fall).

Det har du rett i.. blingset litt der. Ser også at jeg var litt tidlig ute siden det fortsatt er mulig å melde sitt kandidatur.

Jeg er helt åpen for å bli byttet ut. Jeg har meldt meg, og fortsetter gjerne, men innser jo at jeg har litt lite tid å investere akkurat nå og at vår norsk-amerikanske venn ser ut til å ha driven som trengs

Kjør valg

Man kan ikke annet enn å bøye seg i støvet for en landslagssjef som har ledet Norge i 37 sesonger - respekt!

...samtidig er jeg veldig for at flere skal få prøve seg i jobben, dersom det er gode kandidater. jv03 virker å være en slik - dedikert, rutinert og sugen på jobben.

Dear Norge community,

My name is Thanos, ex-basketball pro.After a pause, i returned to the game and my primary focus still is saving some money but still being relevant.

This gives me time to focus almost only to a national team. i chose Norway because I always have positive feelings for the country (still sad for FIFA world cup) and also I have no personal gains for my team.my goals if I will be elected will be:

For the national team:

- establish game plans

- check all players, being fair in main selections.

- announce a second list of borderline selections and what is missing for them to join so managers might focus on training that.

- 80th place in rankings will be a first close target

For the teams :

-being open about what I do, you can ask or propose anything

- make the most of your players, either in skills or in money earned for your team

In conclusion,

If you vote for me,we will be in touch soon,if not thank you for reading this post and good luck to the two rest candidates as well.I wish you all a great new season and a great summer.

Hei alle sammen!

I already introduced myself in the National Team Speeches thread so I thought I would post here and focus on what a Norge National Team would look like under my leadership.

Team Development
With the size of our talent pool, maximizing the talent we have is the highest priority I will have as a manager. Assisting with training plans and supporting the managers who are training players is the top way to do this. I would plan on giving a bulk of the scrimmage minutes to top players in the pipeline as well as rewarding managers who commit to maintaining peak game shape on their NT players. These minutes will help club teams' economics as well as boost the experience of players who are being well developed. I will also actively be reaching out to any high potential rookies to encourage positive development of their players. You never know, we may pull a new manager into our group of managers building Norge NT (and U21) players. I will also be open about what our team pipeline needs are and actively reach out to those managers training players who may be able to fill those needs.

Game Day Strategy
As someone who made players for the USA NT, I am a firm believer in maximizing game shape. I understand that there are times where the luck of the game just doesn't fall for a player and you just can't quite get him to 9 game shape, but my lineups will be heavily influenced by the players who are at peak form. This may even sway a game plan if I feel like we will perform better with a different lineup because our usual starter is at 7 game shape and we have a similarly talented backup who is at 9 game shape. Also, stamina is very important, especially for our starters. If you are holding a high level player who has low stamina, don't be surprised if I were to reach out and ask for you to train the stamina up. At the club level, I saw my top tier team make a clear leap when I started training stamina. I expect that there will be some who are also training some other young trainees and I totally understand why you wouldn’t be training stamina in those situations.

Youth Focus
I plan on being strategic with our team’s minutes. In the European competition, if we are truly outclassed, I will likely lean toward playing younger players and building their experience up for future competitions. The approach will be different in the consolation tournament where every game and every point matters. The goal will be to put the best team on the floor and win a game at the knockout stage and continue to build from there.

Communication
Managers who have players on the NT will be hearing from me, as will anyone on our radar that owns an NT prospect. I will communicate directly to you if you are affected by the youth focus and will welcome feedback from all managers of NT or future NT players. Also, I will provide weekly updates via the forums, but will be careful to not expose too much to our competitors as our margins are thin and we need to keep any advantages we have.

Also, I will communicate in English. The only other option is for me to use Google Translate and I do not want anything to be lost in translation. If this is an issue, I will be sure to find a suitable answer to make sure I am communicating to everyone in their preferred language.

I think with some focus and support from the Norge community (as well as some Norge adjacent managers like myself), we could build a squad that can win a couple knockout games at the consolation level and even maybe push to make it to the World Championships. This will take time and commitment from multiple managers, but I believe it is something we can do.

Heia Norge!

Sounds like a well thought-through approach. From club games I especially find the combination of high stamina+game shape to be important, and I expect the same to be true (about stamina, GS should always be good) for NT as well unless you have a very deep roster (which is a challenge for a small BB-country like ours).

Good luck to all candidates in the election! Norge - remember to vote!
