“Fariborz Askari” Speaking to IRNA on Wednesday about the postponement of the World Taekwondo Championships to be held in China in April next year, he said: “When a group designs and plans a route to reach their goals on a specific date, a long postponement ruins everything.” he does.
He added: “This delay causes them to have some expectations in the continuation of the path.” We held five selection rounds, and if we keep the same group, some will protest, and if we add some, some will protest, and it will be hard work.
Askari explained: we have to deal with procrastination and soon we will hold a meeting with the officials of the federation and members of the technical staff to create the best conditions. This is the second time that the World Cup has been postponed.
What will happen to the national team selection competitions that are to be held tomorrow (Thursday)? He said: “There are 25 people in the army now and the selection competitions will be held tomorrow to reach 16 people.” The schedule was pre-arranged and the players are ready for the new qualifiers.
The head coach of the national taekwondo team said: “The student olympics will be held in June, and then in September, we will have the Hangzhou Asian Games, and we will have to decide on the conditions for holding the camps.”
In response to the question whether two separate teams will be formed to participate in the World Cup and the Asian Games? “It is difficult to decide on this,” he said. For the next Olympics, only the top four people in each weight category in the world will receive quotas through ranking, and people who have high scores in the rankings must be sent to different competitions. This is why it is difficult to choose different combinations. People may not give the rules and only criticize, and we must believe that the technical staff and officials have summarized all the steps to make the best decision for Iranian taekwondo.
Askari explained about the addition of two coaches to the technical staff of the Iranian men’s national team: “Mohammad Bagherieh Motamed” is an honorable champion who has all the medals in his record and has also worked as a coach in India and has held various international seminars. He is not far behind people in terms of age and he will definitely help us.
The head coach of the Iranian national taekwondo team continued: “Mehrdad Yousefi”, a former national taekwondo player, is also one of the best bodybuilding coaches who has the knowledge of the day. These two people will definitely help us a lot.
Regarding the good empathy in the technical staff of the national team, he said: “When you form a team, everyone should be together and support each other.” If the technical staff and the team are not going to accept and empathize with each other, things will not work out. In all sports, the team you gather must be united to reach the goal.
