Well, I don't want to manage Latvia NT.. Why New Zealand? It was the first English speaking country that run into my mind :) when I was younger, I saw a documentary film about New Zealand and therefore always wanted to go there someday, but unfortunately because of a money matter never had a chance. So no spectacular reason, I just like your country.

Yeah, actually I didn't see much of a chances against SammyD even before writing my speech, but wanted to try anyways :)

To all the applicants - If and How do you think you can improve the NT?

I think the main problem our national team had a couple of seasons ago was there were no NZ players getting trained by NZ coaches. That meant that most of the NZ players in the NZ team were owned by overseas managers and not being trained past 22-24. That has changed the last few seasons with more NZ managers training our NT players and they are starting to come into the team now. So the main way I see to improve the team is to keep in contact with the coaches training these players who are in the team or just outside the team who are still receiving training and make sure they are training the same area's that would most benefit the national team.

This is a lot easier now that we have more NZ players being trained here in NZ as I said earlier. It was very hard sending messages to foreign managers who didn't speak English, Google translate isn't as good as it could be....

This is a question to all candidates:

What are your plans in terms of interaction and communication between you as the NT manager and us as the National managers? Do you plan to use the forums/BB-mail etc, and if so, how?

To all candidates, what do you think is the most important part of managing an NT? (there is no right/wrong answer)

first: i think that the national coach and others coach of teams which have players in NT must communicate
second: the training is very important
third: i think the ex national coach and the new coach must collaborate for the team
i will make tactics for every match. i study the opposing teams. i see their last matches and i look for a good tactic. yesterday i used new tactics with my team and i think they aren't perfect but good.

I like to give general updates on the forums and if I need to talk to a specific coach I will BB mail him/her. If I am posting tactics or team lists I would use the NZ private forums if people were interested in using them with me :P

Most important part of the job is probably improving the team, the win's will come if the team keeps improving. I know we are not going to beat any of the massive teams in the next two seasons but if we all work together and improve our NT players at a faster rate then we can beat them down the track :)
