Though he currently coaches full-time at the junior level of the top Danish club, Viborg, Thomas Broend has made a commitment to support the WNT in international competition. He helped prepare the team for competition in Lake Placid leading-up to the North American Qualifiers in January 2007, and was also in Mexico City in April 2007 for the second-chance qualification tournament against Mexico and Chile. The members of the WNT are equally excited to be working with a development coach with Thomas’s credentials and demeanor. He is enthusiastic and inspiring, yet has a calming influence on players. Where many international coaches are eager to assist the program, they often try to teach in a manner that is too technically and tactically advanced. Thomas, on the other hand, has the ability to break down skills, movements and combinations so that members of the WNT understand why and how things should be done. Whatever he does, it seems to be working. Thomas’s team, Viborg, has not lost a game in over four years. Thomas coached the U19 team, a development team, for top team in the “TOMS Liga” (the highest league) in Denmark who recently won the European Cup. In the fall of 2007, Thomas will begin coaching Gadsaxe Handball, a 1st division team (the second best league) in Denmark. Wherever he goes, Thomas seems to be a trigger for success. As such, the WNT is looking forward to accomplishing great things with Thomas Broend at their side. |
