Story of the dayWhen Australia meets Pakistan
European countries are not the only ones making their appearance on the fields in Brasschaat. The borders of the countries of the Hockey World League exceed the European continent and pass through the South China Sea all the way to the Tasman Sea. 15 countries, including exotics such as Malaysia, Pakistan, New Zealand and Korea, enter the fraye.
This allows us to distinguish a variety of languages such as Polish, Mandarin, Urdu and Korean on and off the field. In the stands a man dressed as a French rooster is crowing of joy after a victory of Les Bleus. In the press room we meet the friendly Indian journalist V. Krishnaswamy and producer Abhijit Das, the Italian journalist Carla Cotelli and Neville Dawson, a photographer from New Zealand. There even is an American volunteer around the venue!
On Tuesday, the diversity of languages led to a hilarious scene in the mixed zone, where players and journalists meet after the game. There was a remarkable interview of Fleur Van de Kieft with the Japanese player Okaiwa Shihori. The Japanese didn’t speak English and the conversation didn’t go as smooth as planned. We nearly had to fly over a Japanese translator from Tokyo. The interview is available on the Youtube channel of Road2Rio.
Fortunately everything always goes well in the end. We can be pleased to have such a global diversity in hockey!
Although hockey has already been popular in Europe for more than a hundred years, it
was only during the 1970s that the sport gradually started being introduced into China.
And it took another twenty years or so for the country to start to have suitable areas made
available to finally allow the sport to start developing properly. Up until that point, hockey
players had only had a single artificial turf ground made available throughout the whole
territory. In 1975, four coaches were sent to Pakistan for a first observational tour. The
following summer, the sport finally developed in the region of Beijing and the province
of Heilongjiang. And if the women’s team worked hard to reach the world’s top ten, the
men, by contrast, have trouble making their way. In the past, most of the Chinese players
originated from Mongolia, where the locals play Boikoo tarkbei, also called Daur hockey (a
sport played with an apricot kernel and wooden sticks). The country is without doubt the
great unknown of this tour in Anvers,
although during the previous tour, in
South Africa, it showed that it had
been making constant progress. It
is, in any case, a considerable new
market for the International Hockey
Federation, which has made it a
priority for development along with
Bangladesh.

• Two time Olympian Madonna Blyth will set a new record when she becomes Australian hockey’s most capped female player of all time. She will play her 304th cap against New Zealand and so beat the record of Nikki Hudson (303). Blyth has been an influential leader in the Australian women’s program since becoming captain in 2009, and since then she has assisted the Hockeyroos from seventh in the world rankings to second over a two-year period.
• Player for Great Britain, David Ames, turns 26 today. Happy Birthday David !
• Tonight at 8pm the Australian women meet New Zealand in a big Tasmanian clash. The game between neighbours is a confrontation on top level. Australia is number two of the world and New Zealand number four. The Australians already said they would need to play better than yesterday in order to beat their rival.
• Today Tengku Ahmad Tajuddin wil play his 200th cap for Malaysia. Also the Korean Kim Jong Eun will defend for the 200th time the colors of her country.

L’analyse vidéo incontournable dans le hockey moderneS’il existe bien une discipline qui a pris
une place déterminante dans le hockey
moderne au cours de ces dix dernières
années, c’est celle de l’analyse vidéo. Un
travail essentiel et minutieux qui permet
au staff d’améliorer les performances
tactiques de son équipe sur le terrain
mais également de découvrir les failles
et les ouvertures dans le système de son
adversaire. Apparu au début des années
2000, avec l’analyse à partir de cassettes
VHS, l’évolution et les progrès techniques
des caméras, des logiciels et des
ordinateurs ont permis d’affiner les
méthodes de travail et l’interprétation des
données.
Aujourd’hui, le codage s’effectue, en
direct, pendant les rencontres et il est
possible de visionner des p.c. ou des
phases de jeu, seulement quelques
secondes après qu’elles se soient
déroulées. L’ensemble du staff passe
ainsi des dizaines d’heures par semaine
à travailler sur des clips vidéos pour
analyser les performances collectives
et individuelles. Et de leur côté, les
joueurs utilisent également cet outil pour
décortiquer leurs prestations et étudier
le style de jeu et les spécificités de
chacun de leurs adversaires.
What else? Le hockey a été l’un
des précurseurs de l’analyse vidéo dans
les sports collectifs avec le football
américain et le rugby. Si, aujourd’hui, les
clubs de football disposent également de
leur propre analyste, c’était encore loin
d’être le cas il y a cinq ans !

DAY 4
Story of the dayLe monde est un village
Il n’y a pas que les pays européens qui sont présents à Brasschaat. Les frontières des pays participant à cette Hockey World League dépassent de loin le continent européen et s’étendent de la Mer de Chine jusqu’à la Mer de Tasman (Pacifique Sud). Quinze pays différents sont en lice, parmi lesquels des pays “plus exotiques” comme la Malaisie, le Pakistan, la Nouvelle-Zélande et la Corée.
Voilà qui nous vaut donc un agrégat de langues sur le terrain et en dehors, comme le polonais, l’urdu, le mandarin ou encore le coréen. Dans les tribunes, on peut apercevoir un supporter déguisé en coq français, fou de joie après la victoire des Bleus. Dans la salle de presse, le journaliste indien V. Krishnaswamy et son collègue Abhiji Das, côtoient le photographe néo-zélandais Neville Dawson, la journaliste italienne Carla Cotelli et bien d’autres. Il y a même une bénévole venue tout droit des Etats-Unis !
Cette diversité des langues mène parfois aussi à des situations amusantes dans la mixed zone, le lieu où les journalistes et les joueurs se retrouvent après les rencontres. Mardi soir, notre reporter Fleur Van de Kieft a interviewé la joueuse japonaise Okaiwa Shihori, qui ne maîtrisait pas vraiment l’anglais… On a failli faire venir un traducteur de Tokyo pour faciliter la conversation ! Découvrez l’interview sur la chaîne Youtube de Road2Rio.
Heureusement tout finit toujours bien! La présence du hockey sur les cinq continents est un atout incontestable!

De 16h30 à 17h30 les plus jeunes parmi nous peuvent suivre un Hockey Clinic dans la zone Ola Hockey , donné par les coaches de hockey Emily Calderon et Thomas Cruyl. Après le dernier match, les DJ du club de Dragons feront vibrer le Village.

Thanks to our sponsor of the day:
Videoanalyses, essentieel in het moderne hockeyAls er één aspect de voorbije tien jaar
Het zijn niet enkel Europese landen die hun opwachting maken op de Brasschaatse velden. De grenzen van de landen in deze Hockey World League overschrijden moeiteloos het Europese continent en lopen via de Zuid Chinese Zee helemaal door tot aan de Tasmaanse Zee. 15 verschillende landen komen hier in actie, waaronder exoten als Maleisië, Pakistan, Nieuw-Zeeland en Korea.
Hierdoor kunnen we een mikmak aan talen zoals Pools, Mandarijn, Urdu en Koreaans onderscheiden op en naast het veld. In de tribunes zien we een man verkleed als Franse haan kraaien van plezier na een overwinning van Les Bleus. In de perszaal botsen we dan weer op de vriendelijke Indische journalist V. Krishnaswamy en producer Abhijit Das, de Italiaanse journaliste Carla Cotelli en de Nieuw-Zeelandse fotograaf Neville Dawson. Er loopt zelfs een Amerikaanse vrijwilligster rond op de venue!
De diversiteit aan talen leidt ook tot een hilarisch tafereel in de mixed zone, waar spelers en journalisten elkaar ontmoeten na de wedstrijden. Dinsdagavond vond een opvallend interview van onze Fleur Van de Kieft met de Japanse speelster Okaiwa Shihori plaats. De Japanse bleek het Engels niet machtig waardoor het gesprek niet zo vlot verliep en we bijna een Japanse vertaler moesten laten overvliegen uit Tokyo. Het interview is te bekijken op het Youtubekanaal van Road2Rio.
Gelukkig loopt alles steeds goed af en kunnen we hier alleen maar blij zijn met de mondiale diversiteit in het hockey!
COUNTRY HONOURED : CHINAHet nieuwe hockeytijdperk ?
FLICK & BULLY
Hoewel hockey in Europa al meer dan honderd jaar bestaat, werd de sport pas in de jaren
1970 mondjesmaat geïntroduceerd in China. Toch duurde het nog bijna twintig jaar voor
het land beschikte over geschikte hockeyterreinen. Pas vanaf dat moment kon de sport
zich verder ontwikkelen. Daarvoor was er in het hele land maar één kunstgrasveld waar
hockeyspelers terecht konden. In 1975 werden vier coaches naar Pakistan gestuurd voor
een eerste observatieronde. De volgende zomer won de sport al aan populariteit in de streek
rond Peking en in de provincie Heilongjiang. Hoewel de damesploeg zich ondertussen een
weg naar de top tien van de wereld geknokt heeft, krijgt de herenploeg het heel wat harder
te verduren. Vroeger kwamen de meeste Chinese hockeyspelers uit Mongolië, waar de
inwoners Boikoo tarkbei of Daur hockey spelen (in deze discipline maken ze gebruik van
een abrikozenpit en houten stokken). China is ongetwijfeld de grootste verrassing van dit
toernooi in Antwerpen, ook al heeft
het land tijdens het vorige evenement
in Zuid-Afrika bewezen dat de spelers
steeds meer vooruitgang boeken.
Deze markt biedt in elk geval heel
wat nieuwe mogelijkheden voor
de FIH, die voorrang geeft aan de
ontwikkeling van het Chinese en
Bengaalse hockey.

HAPPENING
• Tweevoudig Olympisch kampioen Madonna Blyth zal een record vestigen als Australische hock-eyspeelster met de meeste caps tijdens haar wedstrijd tegen Nieuw-Zeeland. Ze zal haar 304de wedstrijd voor de Hockeyroos spelen en zo het record van Nikki Hudson (303) doen sneuvelen. Blyth is een invloedrijke leidster in het Australisch hockey en heeft als kapitein, sinds 2009, de ploeg van de 7de naar de 2de plaats geloodst.
• De speler van Groot-Brittannië, David Ames, wordt vandaag 26 jaar. Proficiat David !
• Vanavond om 20 uur treffen de Australische dames Nieuw-Zeeland in een grote Tasmaanse clash. De wedstrijd tussen de buurlanden is een confrontatie op topniveau. Australië is nummer twee van de wereld en Nieuw Zeeland nummer vier. De Australiërs lieten al verstaan dat ze beter moeten spelen dan gisteren om hun Nieuw-Zeelandse rivaal te kunnen verslaan.
• Vandaag zal de Maleisiër Tengku Ahmad Tajuddin zijn 200ste wedstrijd voor de nationale ploeg spelen. Ook de Koreaanse Kim Jong Eun zal voor de 200ste keer de kleuren van haar land verdedigen.
