“We have completed our fourth training camp. At the end of this course, we released a list of 23 players, who will defend Senegal at the World Cup,” revealed Fomba in an interview with APS. A selection that includes a mix of experience and freshness, with 11 African champion players and 12 new recruits.
Hard work took place behind the scenes with four months of intense preparation. “We worked for four months and we have more than a month left before going to the competition,” Fomba said.
Despite the rigor and commitment of the team, the coach expressed the difficulties encountered during the preparations. He draws the attention of the Senegalese authorities to these obstacles, particularly with regard to the water supply and the transport of the players.
The Lions, who won the first edition of the African Deaf Championship in September 2021, rank fifth overall in the latest Deaflympics. They will be housed in Group D for the World Cup, alongside France, Australia and Kuwait.
Fomba’s selection includes players from different backgrounds, both from France and from various departments of Senegal. The diversity and uniqueness of this team are major assets for their future performance in the tournament.
