German talent Josephina Neumann performed in Egypt. I saw her live in the Arena. She will have a great future.
I will reply in English, I hope that is ok for you. I am always reading in this forum like many other table tennis fans from Egypt. It is easy to understand everything with Google translate, but I guess it is better to write in English myself.

Scheint so.
Sonst wäre die amtierende Deutsche Meisterin U15 nicht schon im Achtelfinale der U17 gegen eine Ägypterin raus.

Our girls are not bad. Don't underestimate Egypt.

Hana Goda ist bestimmt nicht das letzte Talent aus Nordafrika gewesen  |
Dina Meshref and Hana Goda had been the first step, but that was just the beginning!
Some of our young girls are already able to compete with and even defeat the German girls. But obviously the German girls are very young, I considered their age. But also some of our girls are young and we are moving forward, the development in Africa and especially in our country is improving.

Wisst ihr wer da in Ägypten als trainer aktiv ist? Haben die dort einen europäischen oder asiatischen trainer geholt?

Why no African coach?
I guess you are asking especially about Hana Goda?
She did not have that only one coach in her career. She is very confident and open minded, a young girl with her own character. There are Egypt coaches to mention like Khaled Osman, Haitham Hamed, Mosaad Rohayem, Hesham Esmaiel, Ashraf Abd Elfatah, Tarek Fawzey, which all have a smaller or bigger part of the success.
And of course there is also to mention the Chinese coach Zhang Shao Lin. But Hana Goda practiced also with several famous international coaches, like Peter Sartz from Denmark, Mattias Landfried from Germany, Ulf Tickan Carlsson from Sweden, Massimo Costantini from Italy. If I am not mistaken and hopefully nobody had been overviewed and forgotten, then these had been all the coaches from Europe. And beyond that international experiences with those European coaches Hana Goda practiced several times in China, the first time at the age of 7! So Hana Goda is the "product" of many many coaches and especially of her ability to be open to learn from the best coaches of the whole world and from her own international experiences.
Please forgive me, if I forgot somebody or made I mistake. For some coaches it is not so important to be mentioned as a part of a whole "project", but other ones are very disappointed if you don't make them to a main coach or if they are being named in a row with other ones which had not that great importance than them or if they are even forgotten, so I apologize in advance, if something is not 100% correct in everybodys point of view.
By the way, her mother Radwa Azab has not only one daughter: Hana Goda has a much younger sister.....................
But sorry, this topic is not about Hana Goda. Of course it is about the German talent Josephina Neumann. I only replied because you spoke about Egypt table tennis and asked about coaches. It will be interesting to follow the development of Hana Goda and Josephina Neumann, both can be in the future big rivals in Women's table tennis.
