At 44, this will be the third club where the former international (253 caps between 1998 and 2012) will officiate on the bench after Besançon (2015-2021) and Györ where she ended her playing career, in 2014, on a second Champions League in a row. And where she returned in 2022 as deputy to Ambros Martin but decided to leave last summer, when she was expected to succeed the Spaniard but was not selected by the Hungarian leaders.
Since then, as she did during a sabbatical year in 2021, the 2003 world champion had undertaken a tour of European clubs, notably passing through Kielce (Poland), in order to learn again and again. Waiting for an opportunity to present itself. As she confided to L’Équipe last June after Györ’s 3rd place in the Final Four of the Champions League: “It’s a job of passion, if the project interests me I’ll go all out. » She did not rule out the possibility of returning to coach in France: “It is the project that counts whatever the place. If I don’t have a project, I will continue to do training. »
“My style of handball would be the French defense with the Norwegian attack. I like the sparkling hand in attack »
Tervel also made no secret of his desire to lead a selection. And why not the French team since Olivier Krumbholz decided to withdraw immediately after the Olympics in Paris? “It might interest me, but to see if I can interest the Federation or not,” she replied. Since then, Emmanuel Mayonnade, the coach of Metz, champion of France, has also revealed his French ambition. The Federation, through its president Philippe Bana, says “it is urgent to wait” before appointing the next coach. Who should not be Raphaëlle Tervel, who has signed up with Brest until 2027 starting next summer.
“Brest is a club that makes people dream, which plays the Champions League regularly, there is a real project to build something over time. There is an environment conducive to performance, to do something good and great,” commented Raphaëlle Tervel, on the BBH website. “I like it when it plays fast, it plays well, when it’s beautiful to see. Because I think that the beautiful hand is effective but also and especially when it defends well. My style of handball would be the French defense with the Norwegian attack. I like the sparkling hand in attack,” added the former winger whose playing career also included Spain and Norway. Tervel is particularly renowned for its rigor in video work.
