NATIONAL Athletics Association of Zimbabwe (NAAZ) president Tendayi Tagara has been appointed the head of technical administration of athletes at the African Union Sports Council (AUSC) region five youth games to be held in Namibia next year.
Speaking following his appointment, Tagara said the recognition reflects on Zimbabwe’s management abilities.
“I am happy that the region noticed my qualifications as a coach and that I have managed to administer a number of activities,” he said.
“My position at World Athletics has also weighed in on that position, and I am happy.”
Tagara said the post will help grow his career in sports development.
“I am also happy that as a country we are being recognised as a people with capacity,” he said. “The role of the technical delegate is to technically prepare the sport-specific requirements like rules and regulation and appointment of technical officials.”
Tagara was last year retained in the influential World Athletics Development Commission.
