Greece takes ninth place - Malta day 7

WaterpoloWorld| Saturday 14 September 2013, 20:39 | Tim Hartog
The first of two days of ranking matches at the men's European Junior Championships in Malta saw Greece concluding day 7 of action by claiming the ninth place beating Romania 9-7. But the opening match in the national swimming pool on Saturday brought the home crowd to their feet. Hosts Malta went to overtime in the game do determine what team would finish the tournament in last place. The Maltese squad, who had seen Belarus coming back from a 6-10 deficit after three quarters, responded well in the first period of extra time by scoring three unanswered goals to decide the outcome in their favour and finish 15th while Belrarus closed out the tournament last. Georgia won the matchup for 13th place 12-8 over Ukraine while Germany secured an 11th place finish holding off France 11-8. The Greek claimed the top spot available on Saturday thanks to a nice 0-2 finish against Romania as both sides were tied 7-7 with eight minutes to go in regulation. On Sunday the top eight spots will be determined. Today's fixtures and results are as follows:

Les jugadores més joves del waterpolo català es sumen als èxits d'aquest esport que aquest estiu han estat sonats. A principis d'agost les absolutes quedaven campiones del món, a mitjans d'agost les júniors es convertien en subcampiones del Món i ara les juvenils tornen amb la medalla de plata al Campionat d'Europa.

Felictats a totes les medallistes, als seus equips tècnics, a l'staff tècnic de la Federació Catalana de Natació i sobretot als clubs catalans, als seus presidents i directius i als tècnics, especialment a Xavi Pérez, Juan Carlos Sanchón i Yurema Sabio i a tots els tècnics de waterpolo dels clubs catalans.

WP Referees School en mayo de este año.
 
 

Lo que podría sonar a tópico de que nuestro arbitraje esta siempre presente a nivel internacional cuando la Selección de España no participa en la lucha por las medallas ,  ha quedado una vez mas corroborado en la presente Temporada Internacional 2012-2013 que finaliza el próximo mes de septiembre.


Jaume Teixidó , participo a principios de junio en  la Super Final de la World League femenina disputada en Beijing arbitrando la Super Final.

A finales de ese mismo mes de  junio , Joan Carles Colominas , pito el bronce en los Juegos del Mediterráneo de Mersin ( Turquía ) . El equipo  español disputo el partido por el oro.

Sergi Borrell que ya participo una vez mas en la Final Four de Clubs en Belgrado  , dirigió a principios de agosto , la pasada final del Campeonato del Mundo de Barcelona 2013 ( la  Temporada 2011-2012 ya arbitro la final de los JJOO de Londres 2012 ).

Xevi Buch , arbitrara la final del Mundial Junior masculino que finaliza esta misma tarde de domingo 18/08/13 en Szombathely ( Hungría ) .

Por si esto fuera poco , mañana mismo , se inicia el Mundial Junior Femenino en Volos ( Grecia ) donde participara Ernest Iñesta y , a principios de septiembre , nuestros representantes  en los Campeonatos de Europa Junior serán nuestros compañeros Sergio Galindo ( masculino en Malta ) y el debutante  Raúl Torres que se estrenará en su primer evento internacional   ( femenino en Istambul ).

Asimismo , nuestra compañera Poli Baños ha obtenido estos días el aprobado en su curso de acceso a arbitro LEN en Memorial Darko Cukic en Serbia.

Dentro del mismo ámbito arbitral / técnico , seguiremos contando en los comités técnicos de waterpolo de LEN con Angel Moliner y con Lolo Ibern en FINA.

Nuestro Waterpolo esta nuevamente de enhorabuena !!

El Mundial de Barcelona, por AJD (parte IIII): ‘El arbitraje’

 
 
El Mundial de Barcelona, por AJD (parte IIII): ‘El arbitraje’
 
a falta de comentario sobre las indicaciones técnicas recibidas durante el pasado mundial de BCN 2013 por parte de nuestro compañero convocado , aquí tenemos las sabias observaciones que nuestro compañero AJD hace sobre el mismo desde el punto de vista arbitral en el blog :
 
 
 
Se notó demasiada diferencia del nivel entre los árbitros-top y los que por ser un campeonato mundial fueron convocados por FINA de países sin tradiciones en waterpolo. Como cualquier gran campeonato hubo  instrucciones “frescas” y lo último en la moda del arbitraje fueron las frecuentes expulsiones a los marcadores de boya sin balón. Algunas veces exageradas a mi entender,  rebuscadas, ajenas al espítitu de la ley de la ventaja.
De otro lado,  coger, hundir o tirar hacia  sí es expulsión en cualquier parte del campo y a veces faltaba más rigor de los árbitros a la hora de sancionar este tipo de infracciones en el arco. Por lo mismo los marcadores de boya son sancionados con expulsión, pero no así  los defensores en el arco.  Además los equipos eran conscientes de que los porcentajes de éxito en uno más son por debajo de 50%  gracias a estas contundentes defensas y no se cortaban  en coger y hundir a sus rivales para que no se hagan hueco para chutar.
En definitiva considero que hay que encontrar un equilibrio entre las expulsiones a los marcadores de boya sin balón y la permisividad con los agarrones y el pressing salvaje en el arco.

Aiutiamo gli arbitri… (ita/eng)

http://www.waterpolodevelopmentworld.com/?p=139560

Nel corso dei Mondiali gli arbitri (anche quelli ritenuti i più validi) hanno commesso errori grossolani che hanno rischiato di falsare sia il torneo maschile sia quello femminile.

VEDI link

Nessun processo, ma riteniamo che aprire un dibattito possa essere non diciamo di utilità (perchè dei nostri – e dei vostri - suggerimenti se ne sono sempre fregati, purtroppo), ma di grande interesse.

PIERO BORELLI (dirigente): “Non scopro la luna dicendo che il livello generale degli arbitraggi ai Mondiali di Barcelona è stato molto basso. Tutti hanno potuto constatare, guardando le partite in televisione, che anche direttori di gara di grande valore ed esperienza hanno commesso errori assolutamente inimmaginabili considerando la loro caratura. Rimedi? Io credo che l’unica via da seguire, anche per garantire agli arbitraggi nelle grandi manifestazioni quell’omogeneità che non c’è, sia quella di organizzare frequenti incontri con la partecipazione degli arbitri internazionali in cui vengano discusse le varie problematiche anche con l’aiuto di filmati”.
(eng) – “the general level of refereeing at the World Championships in Barcelona was very low. Everyone could see, watching the games on television, that even the referees of great value and experience have made mistakes absolutely unimaginable considering their caliber. Remedies? I guess that the only way is to organize frequent meetings with the participation of international referees in which are being discussed various issues with the help of movies”

MARCO PAGANUZZI (allenatore): “Guardando le partite dei Mondiali ho avuto la conferma del fatto che tra gli arbitri non c’è omogeneità di valutazione circa alcune situazioni di gioco, e in particolare il “due metri” e il tiro diretto da oltre cinque metri. Ciò dipende, a mio avviso, dal fatto che i direttori di gara non applicano il regolamento, lo interpretano. Occorre, dunque, che sia fatta chiarezza in merito, altrimenti determinati falli continueranno ad essere valutati diversamente a seconda degli arbitri presenti a bordovasca”.
(eng) – “Looking at the World Cup matches I had the confirmation that there is no uniformity among the referees about some game situations, and in particular the “two meters” and the direct shot for more than five meters. This depends, in my opinion, by the fact that the referees do not apply the regulation, but interpret it. It is therefore necessary that there is clarity about it, otherwise certain fouls will continue to be differently valued according to the referees present at the pool”

STEFANO POSTERIVO (allenatore): “Sono stato a Barcelona nelle ultime giornate del torneo e dal vivo ho avuto conferma dell’impressione che avevo avuto guardando in televisione le precedenti partite: il livello delle direzioni arbitrali è stato molto insufficiente. Ciò, a mio avviso, è stato determinato anche dal fatto che ai Mondiali hanno diretto anche fischietti non di primissima fascia, molti dei quali provenienti da Paesi nei quali la pallanuoto non è particolarmente diffusa. Il rimedio, quindi, è elevare il livello generale degli arbitraggi e lo si può fare soltanto designando per le grandi manifestazioni internazionali due arbitri (e non più uno soltanto) provenienti da Nazioni come l’Italia in cui la pallanuoto si gioca ad un certo livello”.
(eng) – “I was in Barcelona in the last matches of the tournament and I received confirmation of the impression that I had been watching on television the previous games: the level of refereeing was very poor. This, in my opinion, was determined by the fact that in the World Championships has also directed referres not of the highest level, many of whom come from countries where water polo is not particularly widespread. The remedy, therefore, is to raise the general level of refereeing and you can do it only by designating for major international events two referees (rather than only one) from countries such as Italy where water polo is played at a certain level “.

GIANLUCA LEO (giornalista): “Onestamente non so come può essere possibile omologare gli arbitraggi a livello internazionale, così come in campo nazionale. Parliamo di questa situazione da anni ed anni ma alla fine cambia poco ed il prossimo anno, al termine degli europei, ci ritroveremo ancora qui a chiederci come possa essere possibile omologare le direzioni di gara. Personalmente, però, credo che tra i tanti errori visti a Barcellona quello più importante da risolvere è la cosiddetta compensazione. Non necessariamente il direttore di gara deve continuare a sbagliare, assegnando un’espulsione o un rigore inesistente o magari un fallo in attacco, per bilanciare un errore di valutazione fatto in precedenza. Bisogna però che anche giocatori ed allenatori facciano la propria parte: come un’atleta sbaglia una superiorità numerica, anche l’arbitro può sbagliare”.
(eng) – “I honestly do not know how it can be possible to make homogeneous the refereeing at the international level, as well as in the national field. We talk about this situation for years and years but in the end it changes little and the next year, at the end of the European Championshipss, we will meet again here wondering how it could be possible to make homogeneous the refereeing. Personally, however, I believe that among the many errors seen in Barcelona the most important one to be solved is the so-called compensation. Not necessarily the referee must continue to make mistakes, assigning an expulsion or a non-existent penalty or maybe an offensive foul, to balance an error of judgment made earlier. However, players and coaches have to make their part: as an athlete can wrong a numerical superiority, the referee can make mistakes.

EDOARDO OSTI (Spreading Waterpolo): “A parte le varie proposte come quella di Margeta (“Ci vuole una Scuola Internazionale per arbitri”) io penso che si debba eliminare il rumore di fondo, che rende tutti gli arbitri molto vulnerabili: seguono le gare per un intero anno con un metro, poi vanno in campo internazionale di club e ne devono adottare un altro. Come se non bastasse utilizzano lo stesso metro durante le competizioni per nazioni fino alle gare conclusive e lì… zac, una bella commissione tecnica che decide come devono arbitrare 3 o 4 ore dopo. Non è possibile, nemmeno per il più dotato degli arbitri, arbitrare al meglio digerendo un nuovo metro di giudizio e applicarlo in poche ore senza averlo provato a lungo prima. Continuo a sostenere che gli arbitri siano più spesso vittime, non carnefici”.
(eng) -”Apart from the various proposals such as Margeta (” It takes an International
School
for referees “) I think you have to eliminate the background noise, which makes all the referees very vulnerable: they referee for an entire year with a meter, then with international club they have to take another one. As if that were not enough use the same meter during the competitions for nations to the final match and there … zac, a nice technical committee that decides how they should arbitrate 3 or 4 hours later. It is not possible for even the most gifted of the referees, refereeing ath his best digesting a new meter and apply it in a few hours without ever having experienced long before. I still maintain that the referees are more often the victims, not perpetrators. ”


FABRIZIO NAPOLI (giornalista): “E’ un problema molto difficile da risolvere. Può aiutare sicuramente un continuo confronto tra le parti, ovvero tra arbitri, allenatori e giocatori, ma non si riesce a farlo in Italia, figuriamoci a livello internazionale”.
(eng) – “It’s a very difficult problem to solve. It can definitely help a continuous dialogue between the parties, or between referees, coaches and players, but you can not do it in Italy, let alone on an international level”.

Les subcampiones del Mundial Júnior de Waterpolo ja són a casa ( BTV )




La selecció espanyola de waterpolo femení júnior ha arribat a l'aeroport del Prat amb la medalla de plata penjada del coll. Les noies entrenades per Xavi Pérez han fet un gran Mundial a Vólos, Grècia, i només s'han vist superades per els Estats Units a la final.                   
El mes d’agost de 2013 serà recordat per la medalla d’or aconseguida per la selecció espanyola de waterpolo femení al campionat del món de la ciutat. Una part important d’aquella selecció són noies que tenen 20 anys o menys i que acaben de disputar el mundial júnior a Vólos, Grècia. A la final van perdre contra els Estats Units de 9 a 7. A l’equip hi ha onze catalanes, dues de les quals, Clara Espar i Laura Vicente, juguen al Mediterrani.
 
XAVI PÉREZ,
"Molt bé, molt content. Les noies han fet un campionat excel·lent. Han treballat molt dur amb la primera preparació que vam fer aquí al CAR de Sant Cugat van estar molt bé totes. I a la competició allà a Grècia ha sigut espectacular. Molt orgullós de totes elles"

"Hi havia un grup de jugadores que arrossegava aquesta càrrega de minuts i s'ha notat perquè arribàvem al tram final dels partits més cansades del normal. Però tot i això les noies han vingut amb molta il·lusió, amb moltes ganes i tot i el sobre esforç han donat la cara i han arribat a la final que és molt gran això."

"Hem tingut la sort que moltes d'aquestes jugadores ja van quedar campiones del Món a Triester fa un parell d'anys, llavors algunes van repetir la plata a Londres, ara el Mundial de Barcelona i ara tornen a repetir un subcampionat del món aquí a Grècia i a veure si les juvenils que la setmana que ve competeixen a Turquia poden sumar. Però espero que això no pari perquè tenim unes generacions molt bones."

ANNA ESPAR, jugadora de la selecció espanyola de waterpolo
"Ha estat un Mundial dur, des de el principi sabiem que teniem opcions d'arribar fins a la fina però veníem amb molta càrrega de partits del Mundial absolut i de tota la temporada però bueno, sempre amb les idees clares i sabent que podiem lluitar fins al final."

"Nosaltres portàvem molts minuts acumulats dels partits anteriors i Estats Units era un rival molt fort. Vam estar lluitant fins al final i vam tenir opcions però al final s'ho van emportar elles."

"No ens podem queixar, haver guanyat un Mundial absolut és una experiència única i tant de bo cada any fos així."

ROSER TARRAGÓ, jugadora de la selecció espanyola de waterpolo
"Ens ha quedat una mica de regust amarg perquè hem perdut la final però realment la vam lluitar fins al final però en general molt contentes."

"Jo no sabia que era la màxima golejadora però sempre és una per acabar amb una mica més d'ànims. Però jo estic molt contenta perquè tot l'equip hem jugat molt bé i això és el més important."

"De moment hem començat així uns quants anys que estem ja pujant i estem demostrant que ens podem mantenir a dalt i que per tant som un dels millors equips i jo estic súper contenta de pertànyer a aquesta generació."

WATERPOLO - Subcampiones del Món Júnior!! ( FCN )

         
 
10:36 -  El waterpolo femení és un no parar d'èxits internacionals. Si la temporada passada es coronava subcampió olímpic i fa dos es penjaven la medalla de campiones del món júnior i medalles també en l' europeu juvenil, aquest any ha estat campió del món absolut i subcampió del món júnior, a més de ser altre cop campió d'Europa de clubs amb el C.N.Sabadell. Increïble l'historial d'un dels esports més joves de casa nostra!!

Aquest cop la ciutat grega de Volos  ha esta l'escenari del Campionat del Món Júnior femení i la selecció estatal amb 11 jugadores catalanes ha arribat a la final a on havia de defensart el títol de campiones del Món contra USA. Però no ha pogut ser i les nord-americanes han acabat imposant-se per 9 a 7.

Les subcampiones del món pertanyen a 5 clubs diferents catalans: C.N.Mataró, C.N.Sabadell, C.E.Mediterrani, C.N.Sant Feliu i C.N.Rubí. I elles són: Marta Bach, Paula Chillida, Anni Espar, Clara Espar, Judith Forca, Irene Gonzàlez, Carla Graupera, Bea Ortiz, Ma.

Aquesta medalla de plata i tots els èxits del waterpolo femení serien impossibles sense els clubs, els tècnics i totes les persones que treballen dia rere dia, de forma anònima i constant. Gràcies a tots i totes,  felicitats!!

2013 Junior Men’s World Championships: Summary


Firstly, my apologies for the interruption in the coverage of this event due to technical problems that emerged unexpectedly  at the time.
 
Italian war cry
Italian war cry
 
Italy was clearly the strongest team and got the championships title on merit. They won all their matches except for the draw with the hosts, Hungary, in the preliminary rounds.  The skills of Head-coach, Ferdinando Pesci’s, charges were excellent. Like at the youth world championships eight months ago – where the Italians also came first – in Szombathely they yet again demonstrated physically strong and ingenious water polo. The team had well-coordinated and sophisticated attacking and defensive patterns that could not be executed without the fine individual techniques of all its players but in particular Francesco di Fulvio, Andrea Fondelli, Alessandro Velotto and Tommaso Busilacchi.
 
Italy wins
Italy celebrates
 
Some of the Italian players took part in the recent youth WC as well. These results and, importantly, quality of performance confirmed yet again that organization of both junior development and senior systems in Italy is one of the best, if not the best in the world.
As usual, the teams of Croatia and Serbia were among the main contenders taking Silver and Bronze respectively. These teams’ final placings could have been different had the Serbian team not faced the Italians in the semi-final which they lost 4:5 in a tight contest. With due respect to the Croatians, to me, the Serbian team was the second best team of the tournament after the Italians.
 
Vladimir Vujasinovic
Vladimir Vujasinovic
 
The Serbian Head-coach, Vladimir Vujasinovic, was one of the best players in the world in the not too distant past. Under his guidance the team was well-organized and disciplined. Dusan Mandic, who is a member of the Serbian senior national team, Dimitrije Obradovic and Gavril Subotic, each demonstrated the level of shooting skills that could be subject of envy by members of any senior national team.  I was told that Obradovic and Subotic were born in 1995. If so, they would be eligible for the WC to be held 2015.
 
Serbia celebrates

Croatian Head-coach and former national team’s player, Vjekoslav Kobescak, has done an excellent job mobilizing his crew and achieving an excellent result. Even though Croatia had a seemingly easier path to the top of the ladder due to the tournaments’ draw, this does not diminish their result. In crucial matches they displayed real quality water polo including by several players who are eligible for the next junior WC. On the way to a decisive semi-final – in which they convincingly beat Hungary 13:10 – Croatia dominated in the match with Australia 11:5.

The fourth place by Hungary might look like a poor result for the nation with great water polo history and traditions. However, Head-coach, Gyorgy Horkai, his assistants and players have made enormous progress within the last 2-3 years to emerge at this championships as highly competitive with other leading sides. In a quarter-final match for the top four position Hungary outplayed a strong Spanish team and were the only team who did not lose to Italy.

The US team improved its form and performance with every match of the tournament. Having lost their opening encounter with Spain 6:8, the Americans beat the same team, 9:7 in the last game to achieve 5th place – not a bad result given the strength of the top four teams. But before reaching this stage, the North-Americans impressed with their fighting spirit in must-win tough encounters with the Slovakian, Russian and Australian teams. In their ranks they had one of the best players at this tournament, Alexander Bowen, who must be credited for his team’s positive results in Szombathely.
The Spanish team won the preliminary group stage by demonstrating a smart and skilful brand of water polo. Perhaps, the main factor that prevented them from achieving a better result was lack of depth on the bench. Their overall very competent performance lacked sharpness when the main playmakers, Alberto Munarriz, Alberto Barroso and Marco Larumbe  had to be replaced.

Brazil was one of the revelations at this WC. In the past, this team would play very enthusiastic and passionate but not really competent water polo. That is how many people perceived them in Szombathely – to their peril as it turned out. Most of their opponents – including the top outfits – found themselves in very uncomfortable situations and had to apply all their resources to achieve a desired result – some belatedly. In the match for the seventh position Brazil beat Australia – an outcome that has not happened for a long time.
Australia had mixed results at this tournament. The team must be credited with their win in an important match with the Russians for the right to make top eight. However, in other do or die games the Ozzies did not manage to play consistently throughout entire matches. For example, Australia started very well against Serbia leading 3:0 in the middle of the second quarter only to lose 5:12 in the end. A somewhat similar scenario was in a match of principal importance with the United States in which Australia led after half-time only to lose the next two periods and the match 11:13. Inadequate fitness and conditioning levels seemed to be among the reasons for that fluctuation in Australia’s performance.  On a positive note,  Gabriel Addley became a revelation of this world championships often keeping his team in the game saving many difficult shots as well as inspiring others with his fighting spirit and encouraging positive demeanor.

Like its National senior team, the juniors of Japan displayed a very original and interesting brand of water polo. And it was not only entertaining, it was also efficient. Most of their opponents had to apply maximum effort to achieve their desired result. In the last match Japan beat Russia whose players were twice as big in size but could not adjust to their highly mobile opponents. It will be interesting to see how Japan will look after the new rules come into force in September this year as its style of play seems to  better reflect the vision of water polo that these amendments will hopefully bring.

The real disappointment of this tournament was the Russian team. In addition to lackluster performances in the crucial games against Spain, the US and Australia, the Russians lost to Japan on the last day after leading 7:1 in the middle of the match. It is not only the technique-tactical mistakes which characterized the Russian team’s performance that was upsetting. Whilst having good levels of general strength and fitness, the lack of fighting spirit and playing discipline – the qualities that used to be the strength of any Russian team –  turned out to be the core reasons for such hapless performances.
With rather limited resources the team from Uzbekistan achieved 12th placing leaving behind their archrivals, Kazakhstan. Uzbekistan’s Kirill Rustamov became the tournament’s top goal-scorer.

Szombathely
The 17th FINA World Men’s Junior Championships was held in the oldest Hungarian city Szombathely.The popularity of water polo in this country was on display once again with more than 2000 spectators gathering for every match of the home team. These spectators were not just watching but knew all the subtleties of the game and were reacting to displays of skills and/or referees’ decisions with competence thus creating great atmosphere.
