Real or rumor? Why no one discussing it here? 2010年李宁中国羽毛球公开赛进入首日争夺。不过在韩国队的阵容中,并没有出现李矛的身影。据了解,李矛已经离开韩国,出任印尼羽毛球队教练。 半个月前的广州,李矛尚且在亚运会的赛场上为韩国队员担任场边指导。但仅仅几天之隔,性格教头再次做出惊人之举,他突然宣布辞去韩国队单打主教练职务,出任印尼队教练。 李矛是前中国国家队男单教练,在国内培养出了曾经世界排名第一的董炯。1998年加盟韩国羽毛球队后,韩国男单迅速崛起,他培养出了李炫一、蒋瑛秀等一批新人,并且令老将孙升模在2004年奥运会上摘得男单银牌。雅典奥运会之后,李矛与马来西亚羽协签约两年。 在马来西亚,李矛悉心调教出了李宗伟。但由于生活条件以及马来西亚国家队内部关系复杂等种种原因,他于07年3月将再次执教韩国羽毛球男单。 如今,他再次改换门庭,拿起印尼队的教鞭。据了解,李矛的此次决定与家庭原因有关。
rough digest (someone please do a full translation) Li Mao was not seen in the CO this week while he did show up in AG a couple of weeks ago. the rumor is that he has already resigned from the Korean team and heading to Indonesia. the article then goes into a little bit about Li Mao coaching history, and ends with saying that he is moving to Indonesia for family reasons.
well.....we knew this new months ago....no one really confirms 100% yet..it created a chaos among INA's coaches...some say he may take charge of certain players, some say for back-up players.....this idea came in when INA lost during Thomas cup...actually one of INA's chairman's friend decided to fund Li Mao for PBSI...they did meet in Shanghai months ago... So far no one really confirms 100%..Li Mao I believe that he has agreement that he can leave Korea team with 10 day notice...
No one is discussing it because it is not 100% sure yet....even until now..I met one of your friend that knew him and during AG, nothing is confirmed yet
Li Mao will be visiting Indonesia this month..actually many INA coaches are not sure or do not know yet
..interesting news...my hunch says, it's pretty much a done deal for Li Mao and he's certainly moving down south to the SEA region, once again..certainly all eyes, esp. fans of INA badminton, will be lasered focused on this developing story~thx for the update, Hau-ge.. Btw, here's a bit of history of Li Mao's move to Korea in 2007. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?40465 Apparently the original contract was for him to last til the 2008 OG; and probably he renewed the contract to last til this yr. He was reportedly paid around $5000/month when he first signed the contract....maybe our BC Korean correspondent, event, can give a bit more insight to this news..
i read in the news (in chinese) here is the link http://sports.sinchew-i.com/node/15780?tid=3(intewview with li mao) and http://sports.sinchew-i.com/node/15781?tid=3(taufik opinion on this) li mao said that his job is done with kba after asian games he turn down offer from pbsi because pbsi offer him to coach in double department but still in negotiation he mentioned he will try to get taufik back to pbsi if he join pbsi as for 2nd article taufik said this decision had nothing to do with him as he leave pbsi for almost 2 years and he will not change coach,if he current coach stop coaching,then he will also retired from badminton the xd coach of korea(not sure his name in english) said li mao mention about leaving few months ago,kba tried to hold li mao but it is hard as kba disallow family to visit the training camp
and neither shld england, look at how eriksson and capello screwed up the national team. indonesia had such great players, hariyanto arbi, ardy wiranata, joko suprianto to name a few, why can't they are groomed to be coaches?
