On Monday, a new chapter opened in the history of Hungarian handball with the launch of the European Handball Association (EHF)\u2019s Master Coach and Licensing Course. Organised by the Hungarian Handball Federation\u2019s International Training Centre, this course represents the highest level of education available for professional handball coaches around the world. Hungary is the first nation in Europe where trainers can take part in a programme which results in not only a master coach diploma, but a license which is valid across the continent as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"The ceremonial opening was attended by Iv\u00e1n Vet\u00e9si, president of the Hungarian Handball Federation, Lajos Mocsai, head coach of the men\u2019s national handball team, Karl Erik B\u00f8hn, head coach of the women\u2019s national team, Dr. Mikl\u00f3s T\u00f3th, dean of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Sciences, Dr. Wolfgang Pollany, member of the EHF\u2019s Methods Commission, Zolt\u00e1n Marczinka, the programme\u2019s Hungarian academic leader, as well as all students registered in the programme.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very pleased that, in fitting with the traditions and successes of Hungarian handball, the highest level of coach training has now commenced,\u201d President of the Hungarian Handball Federation Iv\u00e1n Vetesi said at the opening ceremony. \u201cHandball is one of those few ball games in which Hungarian experts are sought after abroad and by the world\u2019s leading teams. If the 26 students starting the programme will join the current 7 Hungarian EHF master coaches then, in addition to our elite men\u2019s team and club teams \u2013which always do quite well in European Cup tournaments \u2013our coaches will hopefully also prove that they can hold their own anywhere in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zolt\u00e1n Marczinka, the programme\u2019s Hungarian academic leader expressed his gratitude to the Hungarian Handball Federation and Semmelweis University. \u201cWe had always thought along the lines of university-level training; thus, when we took advantage of the opportunity to have the Hungarian Handball Federation organise the programme, we naturally relied heavily on the university background,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\"\"Dr. Wolfgang Pollany, member of the EHF\u2019s Methods Commission related that the Hungarian launch of the EHF master coach programme is a historic moment for handball, since this is the first programme in any of the EHF member countries which results in both an EHF Master Coach diploma and a license. The license is valid for two years, which can be renewed every two years through further training programmes.<\/p>\n

As the closing part of the opening ceremony, Iv\u00e1n Vet\u00e9si and Dr. Mikl\u00f3s T\u00f3th signed a framework agreement for cooperation in the training programme between the Hungarian Handball Federation and Semmelweis University. Dean Mikl\u00f3s T\u00f3th related that a framework agreement is like an engagement and expressed his hope that the two sides will fill it with the type of content that will make the \u201cmarriage\u201d between the university and the Hungarian Handball Federation a truly fruitful one.<\/p>\n
