Raoul Ehren has resigned as coach of the Belgian women’s team. The Belgian federation KBHB reports that both parties are parting ways. This opens the way for the Brabander to the Oranje Dames. A vacancy has arisen at the Olympic champions after the departure of national coach Paul van Ass.
Ehren was appointed national coach of the Belgians in December 2020. He led his team to European Championship silver and bronze and reached the semi-finals with the Red Panthers at the last Olympic Games. Before that, the 51-year-old coach won a string of prizes with the women of Den Bosch. With the team from his hometown, he became national champion nine times and won seven European major prizes.
Three weeks ago, Van Ass indicated that he did not want to continue as national coach after the golden Games in Paris. Ehren, also former coach of Jong Oranje, was almost immediately promoted to top candidate .
