Today the captain of the Spanish national water polo team will continue to provide us with exciting experiences from his long career. What do you think? Does Felipe care about titles and the things he has already achieved in the past? What tips does he give to young players on their way to develop in the best possible way? We will find out all of this today, among other things.

And today for the first time, your listener questions that you asked in advance via Instagram. Here too we will get exciting insights.

And now have fun with the second part with Felipe Perrone.

Today I have the honor and great pleasure to welcome another world champion and MVP to the podcast. None other than Felipe Perrone pays us a visit and provides us with exciting insights into his past, the current situation in Barcelona and also what it was like as a 16-year-old teenager to make the journey to Europe alone from Brazil. For example, what role guests on the podcast played and how it feels to switch to Pro Recco.

So look forward to great stories and things that perhaps not everyone knows about Felipe.

For smaller water polo nations, it may make sense in the long term to change the mode so that they increasingly meet teams with whom they can compete on equal terms. Of course, such games are fun for all involved, but especially on the side of the losing team, the motivation is relatively dampened even before the tournament starts. The bottom line is that such games don't do much for either side.

An important aspect in the future will be technology. What can be taken over from other sports and what will bring valuable insights to both the player and the coach, which will then flow back into training. VR and real-time analysis are just two of many other points.

With Vaughn, we not only have the national coach of South Africa as a guest in the podcast, but also the first from the African continent. I am pleased that today we are getting a glimpse of the water polo structure in the country and more about Vaughn's work with the players. what exactly are the challenges in his country and under what conditions do they travel to tournaments like the World Cup or the World Championship.

In the second part of my conversation with Karl, there are further exciting insights into the development work of Maltese water sports. Karl tells us what is needed and where we stand in development from his daily work with all his colleagues.

With Karl we have the new president of the Aquatic Sports Association of Malta (ASA) as our guest today. Karl was the head coach of the national team for about 10 years and is now responsible for all the aqua sports in Malta (Swimming, Waterpolo, Open Sea Swimming and synchronized swimming).

Karl will give us a good overview of the plans and goals he is pursuing with Malta. We learn what his vision is, which construction sites are still being worked on and what is necessary for constant further development, especially of water polo.

Thanks for joing us today and now let's have fun with Karl!

Heute im zweiten Teil des Podcast-Gesprächs, wieder mit dem Trainer des ASCD Vuk Vuksanovic, gehen wir auf die Jugendnationalmannschaft ein und was eine Nominierung für jeden im Team bedeutet.

Aber es geht auch um die letzte Saison beim ASCD, wie es in der neuen Saison weitergeht. Wie die Ruhr-Games gelaufen sind und wir gehen der Frage nach "Was müssen wir für eine bessere Entwicklung der Schiedsrichter tun" nach. Natürlich alles aus Sicht eines Coaches, aber nichtsdestotrotz weniger interessant. Ist der VAR in Deutschland machbar und warum wünscht sich Vuk den VAR? All das werdet ihr in der heutigen Episode herausfinden.

Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

Heute zu Gast im Podcast der "Wiederholungstäter" und Trainer des ASCD Vuk Vuksanovic. Das letzte Mal als Vuk zu Gast war, stand noch Landestrainer Niedersachsen auf seiner Visitenkarte. Doch in den letzten Monaten/Jahren, seit der Episode 6 des WET-Podcasts, hat sich einiges getan. Was genau, darüber wird Vuk heute berichten.

Was sind die grüßten Unterschiede zwischen seinem vorherigen und aktuellen Job in Duisburg? Gibt es Unterschiede in der Arbeit mit Jugendlichen und Herren? Wie ist die letzte Saison aus seiner Sicht für seine Mannschaft gelaufen? Mit welchem Wort würde Vuk die abgelaufene Saison beschreiben?

Auf all diese Fragen bekommt ihr heute eine Antwort!

Aber auch die Nationalmannschaft und deren Auftritt beim diesjährigen World Cup in Berlin wird Thema sein. Ihr seht also, die Themen sind vielfältig und es gibt jede Menge Insights :-)

Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

Some weeks ago Barceloneta played the Champions League Final 8 and archived the third place at the end. Are there any reasons for that and why is Pro Recco right now the best team? How important are other factors outside if the pool to win these kind of titles three times in a row? Unia will give us his opinion and why was this season still a success. The plan from now on for the next couple of weeks is clear. Be world champion again and this is the plan fpr Unai and the spanish waterpolo nationalteam! I wish you Unai and the whole team only the best in order to accomplish your goals and live your dream once more.

It's time for the next World Champions here in the Podcast and with Unai Aguirre we have the actual No.1 in the goal of Spain and of the number one club in Spain Barceloneta.

I talked with Unai about his roots and what makes Spain so successfull regardless of the ages. They have so many talented players in the goal and in the field and what do Spain differently then other countries. You will get some answers from Unai in the first part of our talk.
