السوداني أحمد عبد التام يدرب نادٍ أسترالي

Quote: Sport New Metro coach has overseas experience WALTER PLESS 22 October 2007 Hobart Mercury METRO-Claremont has appointed Ahmad Abdaltam as its new Premier League soccer coach for the 2008 season. Abdaltam, who is from Sudan, played professionally in Greece and Egypt. He has coached and played in Tasmania previously with Hobart Olympic, Juventus and Glenorchy Knights. Metro finished last season as the wooden-spooner and survived a promotion-relegation play-off over two legs against Division One champion Beachside to retain its Premier League status. Abdaltam replaced Matthew Gasparin, who has been in charge of Metro for the past two seasons. Abdaltam said he would try and bring several experienced players to the club. Meanwhile, Premier League outfit University has appointed Scott Gallacher, from NSW, as its new senior coach in 2008 to replace Matthew Shaw, who is moving interstate. Gary Slicer will be the reserve-team coach, while Les Richardson will coach the under-19s and the Premier women's team. ``I have been involved with soccer for the past 40 years or more as a player and then as a coach,'' said Gallacher, who is from Scotland. Gallacher moved to Hobart last season and coached Glenorchy Knights and the Friends' School first team.
