Afghanistan Boxing Federation named its new head coach and their President Mr. Abdullah Sattari officially appointed Mr. Ajmal Omarzade in the recent days to lead the country’s boxing life into a new direction. His experiences in Sweden could be the way of the success for Afghanistan’s boxing team in the near future.
Afghanistan Boxing Federation signed two-year contract with Mr. Ajmal Omarzade to prepare their elite team for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and for the other main competitions such as the ASBC Asian Confederation Boxing Championships which will be held in Bangkok this April.
Mr. Ajmal Omarzade was born in Afghanistan but his family moved to Sweden when he was only 6. He began his boxing career in Sweden two years later at the age of 8 and attended high number of competitions as a boxer. He became Swedish National Boxing Champion at the welterweight (69kg) and he is medallists from several other events.
As a coach he supported many of the Swedish talents to reach their goals and worked as head coach with the national team in 2018. His Swedish elite team worked well in the strong Republic of Kazakhstan President’s Cup last June where their Love Holgersson claimed the gold medal in Astana.
“I will try to take advantage of promises made by the Afghanistan Boxing Federation that they will give me the power to do so. I can bring this country to my experiences from Sweden where I worked in the recent years and we could get successes in the Gee Bee Tournament and also in the Republic of Kazakhstan President’s Cup.
As far as I have seen in the recent days Afghanistan has a lot of talent in the elite level in each category. I feel good because I have been away from my country for many years and now I was given the chance to serve my country this way,” said the new head coach of the Afghan boxing team Mr. Ajmal Omarzade.
