Minoo Maddah (born 17 May 1976) is an Iranian taekwondo practitioner and Coach.[1][2][3][4]

Biography[edit]

Minoo Maddah The head coach of the women's national taekwondo team, regarding the criticisms of the women's team's performance in this competition and the comparison of this team with the men's team in terms of results, said: "Comparing the women's team with the men's in terms of figures and number of medals is not correct at all because they are not in equal conditions."[5] The men's team sent 4 athletes in each weight to support each other. Each of these players, when they won, removed one opponent from the 16-player table, which was a point for our men's team.[6]

Taekwondo[edit]

The head coach of the national women's taekwondo team, in response to the question that it seems that due to the sending of 5 female taekwondo players against 16 male athletes to the Grand Slam competitions, serious attention is not paid to the women's team, he said: the number and potential of the men's team with the women's are not the same.[7] Anyway, sending to these competitions was useful for our 5 taekwondo players. It is possible that the federation may oppose the sending of more members of the women's team to the matches due to financial conditions or many other issues, for example because of the fear of how they will respond after not getting the results, but we should never pay attention to what is said after the match, and I also pay attention.[8] I don't like criticism, because a critic's job is to criticize. We even became the champion of Asia, they criticized.[9] If we have a long-term view, regardless of any result, we must send women to international competitions so that they can progress as much as possible by gaining experience.[10] If we have a supportive view of women, instead of numerous criticisms, we can give them a chance to repeat good results such as the Asian Championship and the Islamic Games.[11][12][13]
