Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>MWALIMU Julius Kambarage Nyerere is credited to have turned the then young Tanzania into an \u2018Omnisports\u2019 nation, the legacy that still holds water today as Tanzanians celebrate 61st anniversary under President Samia Suluhu Hassan.<\/p>\n

The nation\u2019s icon, the Father of the Nation, indeed left a landmark in the sports sector that he is shared generation after generation and witness through the success Tanzania has earned this year and in the past years.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s anniversary have brought excitement to Tanzanians as we witness Gabriel Geay setting the national marathon record after winning a silver medal in the 2022 Valencia Marathon clocking 2 hours and 03 minutes this December.<\/p>\n

Apart from breaking a national record, he improved his personal best time from two hours, four minutes and fifty five seconds that he recorded in Italy last year during the Milano Marathon. The Italian marathon record he achieved became the national record, so he has broken his record.<\/p>\n

At the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games athletes returned home and received a warm reception after their scintillating performance.<\/p>\n

Tanzania finished 32nd in the overall medals tally after completing the campaign with three medals. The games involved 72 countries. They hauled medals through marathoner Alphonce Simbu, who won silver and two boxers; Yusuf Changalawe and Kassim Mbundwike, who won bronze medals.<\/p>\n

It was historical event as the last time Tanzania won a medal in Commonwealth Games was in 2006 in the Melbourne Games through marathoner Samson Ramadhan who won gold.<\/p>\n

Fabiano Joseph won bronze in the 10,000m race. Since 2006, Tanzania did not win any medal as the country returned empty-handed in the games held in New Delhi in 2010, Glasgow, Scotland in 2014 and Gold Coast Australia in 2018. As the last time a Tanzania boxer won a medal in boxing was in the 1998 Club Games record, 24 years after Michael Yombayomba won the country\u2019s first gold in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.<\/p>\n

Years back during the presidency of Mwalimu Nyerere sports had been among the big beneficiaries. Many Tanzanians witnessed those significant improvements that excelled in athletics, boxing and football.<\/p>\n

A few individuals brought pride to the nation during his reign by picking several medals in Olympics, Commonwealth and All Africa Games: Filbert Bayi, Suleiman Nyambui, Juma Ikangaa, Gidamis Shahanga, Habib Kinyogoli, Emanuel Mlundwa, Michael Yomba Yomba, Haji Matumla being the most brilliant ones. Tanzania\u2019s success during Nyerere\u2019s reign has been a mark that athletes are struggling to meet today.<\/p>\n

The cause of this achievement was the country\u2019s response to the Head of State\u2019s announcement in 1973 that Olympic or Club games, mainly athletics should be a national sport. The country massively embraced a multi-sporting venture that opened doors to other sports in global class events.<\/p>\n

Though it might look strange today, following the new awareness, Tanzania even fielded cycling in the Olympic Games of Munich and the legendary rider George Mulamula was the country\u2019s envoy.<\/p>\n

Daily News had the opportunity to speak with Mlundwa, the Africa Flyweight legend. He explained that sports did well during Mwalimu Nyerere\u2019s time as it started from the grass-root level, where sports were encouraged in schools.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt that time, sports was part of the school timetable. Accordingly, all variety of sports had the same weight. Students had the opportunity to choose athletics, boxing, football, basketball, netball or triple jump. In addition, the government distributed sports equipment to each District, thus encouraged students in schools from primary to secondary schools to participate in sports,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

Mlundwa added during that time; there were interschool competitions through which they scouted players who formed national teams. Besides schools, the government chose several places to serve as community centres for sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the inter-school competitions, national teams were formed for the global tournaments. The athletes in school had time to practice and time to study,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Mlundwa shared his experience, asserting that he joined the national boxing team in secondary school when he was 17 of age. He had the honour to participate in the national team while studying; wherever he was supposed to join the national team, the school offered him permission.<\/p>\n

Apart from Mlundwa, Filbert Bayi confirmed he developed his skills through grazing animals and participation in sports at school.<\/p>\n

\u201cI used to participate in sports activities; I played football, long jump and athletics. In 1968 I participated in regional competitions and I did well,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

1973 was a banner year in Tanzania\u2019s sports history and two men, a middle-distance runner, Filbert Bayi and a boxer, Habib Kinyogoli, were arguably the \u2018figureheads\u2019.<\/p>\n

Bayi beat the Kenyan world champion, Kipchoge Keino, in the 1,500 m race of the All African Games in Algeria to win the country\u2019s first gold medal, almost ten years since independence. In the same event, Habib Kinyogoli added a silver medal after a controversial loss to Ugandan, Omollo.<\/p>\n

The two medals forced the late President, Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere, to publicly announce athletics as a \u2018national sport\u2019. In 1980 Moscow Olympics best described the success of Mwalimu Nyerere\u2019s seed of Omni-sporting.<\/p>\n

The country\u2019s historical event was the Moscow Olympics. Besides earning Tanzania its only two medals, the games saw fielding a hockey team for the first time, as commended by an official in Tanzania Olympic Committee (TOC), Muharami Mchume.<\/p>\n

Moreover, it was the first team entry in the world-class event as the rest had always been individual performers. Mwalimu Nyerere reached the move after the football team, Taifa Stars, had a dismal show in the event after playing three matches and garnered only a point following their 1-1 draw with Ivory Coast.<\/p>\n

The team lost 3-1 to Nigeria in the opener before suffering a 2-1 loss to Egypt in their second match; the results were not good, but it was an honour for Tanzania to qualify for the African Cup of nations.<\/p>\n

The senior national team Tanzania made history by securing a place in the Africa Cup of Nations after a 39-year absence from the continent\u2019s top-flight tournament. Tanzania has continued to fight for strengthening the sports industry by gaining representation in major international championships.<\/p>\n

Mlundwa expressed dissatisfaction with the state of boxing and sports in Tanzania but commented on preparations to be held early from the grass-root level if.<\/p>\n

\u201cPreparations must begin early, and investments should be encouraged in young talents. Players should realise that it is a great honour to represent the nation in Olympics and Commonwealth Games,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Last year after the Olympic games, Bayi, on his side, said that the performance of sportspersons in Tanzania was below par, citing poor governance in sports and lack of professionalism in management as the major let down. Bayi, the Tanzanian Olympic Committee (TOC) Secretary-General, said many athletes\u2019 development process is based on coaching or skill development models, sidelining the management.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost athletes in Tanzania are finding it hard to excel at the top level because of poor management. Athletes\u2019 pathway to success needs coaching and wellorganised management,\u201d insisted Bayi.<\/p>\n

With the guidance of coaches, athletes\u2019 training and competition opportunities help hone their skills. Still, they equally need proper guidance from management, physiotherapists, doctors and dieticians to improve their performance and enhance their physical and mental readiness.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important for national sports governing bodies, governments, TOC and private partners to keep working towards supporting the sporting career of our athletes,\u201d insisted Bayi.<\/p>\n
