If you are a good supporter of the famous animated series "Ninja Turtles", then you surely know who the Rashdan Master is.
Professor Rushdan was at the base of what the "Ninja Turtles" had subsequently achieved and had the greatest impact on their future after collecting them. But what does it have to do with Egyptian handball and its achievements?
The first Egyptian handball team finished eighth in the world championship earlier this year after 18 years of absence from the G8.
The success of the Egyptian handball did not stop there, but the youth team won the bronze medal of the world championship before the junior team finished its achievements of the year by winning the title of world champion for the first time in its history.
Coming back, we explore together that Egyptian handball is due to an excellent and organized planning since 1990. The biggest credit of this system was the German coach. Paul Tidman.Or, as we would call Master Tedman.
Professor Tedman put Egyptian handball on the right track after establishing the right foundation not only for his period, nor for 5 or 10 years, but to continue in the distant future and the current achievements were not born of the moment.
Before talking about Professor Tedman and his role in the development of Egyptian handball, let's go back to our point before arriving in Egypt.
Egyptian Handball before 1990:
You may be surprised to learn that Egypt had little handball history before 1990.
At continental level, the African championship had been held eight times before that year and Egypt had not won its title once.
The Algerian national team dominated the African handball continent and won its title five times against Tunisia 3.
Internationally, the Pharaohs only participated in 1964 at the World Championships in Czechoslovakia.
The loss of the Egyptian team during the three matches was logical because of the difference in level appeared in the heavy results against the teams of Sweden, Hungary and Iceland.
Olympia has never played at the Olympics since Berlin 1936 until Seoul in 1988.
Until the German "Tedman" comes and things change completely for Egyptian handball.
Master Tidman:
One of the qualities of the teacher Rashdan in the animation series was wisdom, confidence, skills and experience, which helped to influence the mentality of the four ninja turtles.
That 's what the German Paul Tidman did with Egyptian handball to completely change the state of mind.
Hassan Mustafa, president of the Egyptian Handball Federation at the time, hired Paul Tidman to promote Egyptian handball.
He also introduced laws that seemed odd at the time by imposing left-handed players on teams to overcome the crisis on the right-hand side, and set a certain age for the retirement of players internationally and for push young people and young people into the future.
Egyptian coaches used handball stars at that time to work with the foreign school and learn from the art direction.
Tedman led the Egyptian team for three years and three months during which he won the Africa Cup of Nations twice in 91 and 92 and then qualified for the World Cup in Sweden in 93 and that Egypt has not missed the tournament since.
Trust
Professor Tedman was confident, even though there was nothing to intercede with Egyptian handball in terms of achievements before his arrival.
"Mr. Tedman was the beginning, Egypt knew the way of achievements and his trust was the most important element that distinguished him," said Ahmed Bilal, one of the protagonists of the generation Golden Egyptian handball at Al Jazeera in 2001 after the completion of the Golden Square.
Ahmed Bilal is one of the legends of Egyptian handball and the star of the golden generation of the game, formed under the direction of Tedman, who has also performed in Egypt at Ahmed Al Attar, in Ashraf Awwad, to Amr El Geoshi and others.
"Tedman trusted us and told us that we had the skills to compete with the best players in the world and taught us to play with confidence and not be affected in the past," said Bilal.
"In fact, the results of the past have affected us.We used to attend any tournament and lose to Algeria," Bilal said.
Tedman called on his players to forget what was missing and to focus only on the following, until Egypt hosted the African Nations Championship in '91.
"There was a fear of handball fans in Egypt and we will not win, but Tedman was very confident," said Bilal.
In the end, Egypt managed to win the title of African nations for the first time in its history in 91, which was the cornerstone of the history of its achievements.
The Pharaohs defeated Algeria, crowned five times in the African title, to finally win the Africa Cup of Nations, which not only allowed Tedman to win the title at the African Games, at the expense of # 39; Algeria.
Another achievement of the Egyptian handball this year was the silver medal of the Greek Games in Greece, losing to Yugoslavia, as the first medal of the game in the history of the tournament.
L & # 39; intelligence
Professor Rushdan is also intelligent, which distinguishes Professor Tedman, who has not been content with African success, which has always been a dream of the Egyptians in football.
Tidman's intelligence was how to take advantage of the two-year victory against the mighty Algerian team and win two titles for Egypt in '91.
Tidman took the opportunity to impress upon his players that it was necessary to reflect on what was to follow and not just on African achievements.
Tedman has asked his players to remain continuously viable and face global competition.
"We traveled almost every two weeks to play friendlies against European teams, and we had the support of the Egyptian federation," Egyptian star Bilal said in the same interview.
"There was a lot of confidence that there was a good future for these players."
At that time, Egypt played against powerful teams such as France, Sweden and others, with a heavy defeat against the Egyptian team.
But Tedman cleverly asked his players to take advantage of these games and not their sadness, the goal being to create friction with the main teams and raise the level.
"You play with teams with players you just watched on television, you should not be impressed anymore, because you are facing world champions," said Tidman to his players' motivation after preparing for the European teams.
Tedman tied his efforts to win the Africa Cup of Nations again in 1992 in Cote d 'Ivoire.
Mental
The mentality of the Egyptian handball player changed under Tedman, and after the biggest dream was to win the African championship title, the dream of participating in the world championships became the most important goal. important.
Under Tedman, the team has already qualified for the 93rd World Championship in Sweden and since then, Egypt is no longer absent.
The Egyptian team Tedman won the opening match against Czechoslovakia 21-20, which is a historic feat.
* Egypt was the first Arab and African team to win a European team at the World Championship *
Egypt then finished 12th out of 16 teams, but was hailed globally for its degree of convergence with the big teams.
Tedman managed to influence the mentality of the Egyptian player, but not only, but also joined the Egyptian coach.
"We learned a lot from the time of Tedman, our mentality has changed," said Mohamed El Alfy, current coach of Heliopolis, on Al Ahli TV.
"We were in Tedman's time and we saw the difference closely and it certainly affected us in an affirmative way," he said.
Mohamed Elalfi was the coach of the historic handball record in 1993 when the youth team won the world championship under the direction of Gamal Shams for the first time in history as the first non-European team to win the title, just like the general manager of the Yugoslav team Zoran, winner of the 2001 championship.
"We went to the missions of Jamal Shams, Assem El Saadani and Tarek Mahrous in Hungary, Germany, Portugal and others," said Alfi.
"We learned a lot from Tedman and Zoran, which affected the Egyptian coach and brought our experience to the younger generation."
This mentality led Egypt to win the 93rd World Junior Football Championship, which included a number of stars, including Magdy Abou El Magd and Hamada El-Ruby (the current Junior National Team technical team), Hamada Al-Naqeeb and Sherif Mo & # 39; men.
The youth team then won the bronze in 99 and was among the stars of the team Hussein Zaki (present in the junior team).
Egypt managed to reach the gold box for the 2001 World Championship in a generation including Hamada El-Ruby, Hamada El-Naqeeb, Marwan Ragab, Hussein Zaki, Ahmed Bilal, Magdy Abu El-Magd, Johar Nabil, Ahmed El-Attar, Hazem Awad and others.
Harvest
The current successes of Egyptian handball, junior title and youth bronze are not yet born, but they have been planned and studied for almost 28 years.
56 copies of the world championships took place in the game. Whether at the level of adults, youth or juniors, the European teams won 54 and Egypt won two titles.
The senior Egyptian team was the first non-European team to qualify for the World Cup in 2001.
The Egyptian team has won the influence of "Professor Tedman" with the emergence of training skills such as Mohamed El Alfy and Gamal Shams have influenced young players.
After that, the younger generation transferred their experience and we found Marwan Rajab and Hamada Al-Naqeeb to lead the first team to win the 2016 Africa Cup of Nations after 8 years of absence.
Hussein Zaki and Hani El Fakharani appeared in the national team for the 2019 World Cup, and the Pharaohs managed to figure in the top 8 after 18 years.
Hani Fakhrani was accompanied by his bronze-winning coach Tarek Mahrous, and the junior team included the trio Magdi Abu Al-Majd, Hussein Zaki and Hamada Ruby.
These are experiences that have been handed down from generation to generation and that allow us to gather all our achievements so that handball continues to harvest what it planted 29 years ago when Tedman arrived in Egypt.
