Draxi, the two time winner of the first league

Written by Numa79

My 2nd article is an interview with Draxi (1665700) who won the first league in Kenya with his second team.

Lets take a look in his life.

Hello Draxi,

Could you please introduce yourself?
Yes of course, the name Draxi is a nickname. I am from Germany and live in the Ruhrgebiet. I am 45 years old at the moment, married and I also have 1 daughter.

How does a normal HT-day looks for you? You started playing in 2004, what motivates you to continue in Hattrick after so many years?
The first years I was very active in Hattrick. In those years I was online a lot of hours and I was very active in the forum and some federations. The last years I don't have that much leisure time as back when I started. My biggest motivation to play this game at thee moment is my team in Kenya, this team still gives me a lot of fun.

Why did you chose for Kenya?
When the introduction from the second teams came I looked at countries with a few (local)managers. Because it would be easier to get faster success than in a big country. I eventually selected Kenya because my parents visited the country for some holidays.

Tell us about your Kenyan team. What is the inspiration for your team name and what was your strategy for your team (did you do some things different regarding your first team)?
The inspiration for my team-name in Kenya has to do something with my daughter, she was born in 2011. And Luna is a short form from her name. With my first team I trained for many years only goalkeepers. I did this because I believed that with keeper-training,I could make some success in a short time. That I why I also started to do this when opening my team in Kenya. During that time I sold my team in Germany and tried a new concept.

What was your nicest match in Kenya? And in what match did you make your biggest mistake (line-up etc.)?
This was one of my best matches in Hattrick: (535894759). My most beautiful match is this one: (507021778), after that match I won the 1st league in Kenya for the first time.
Of course I made some big fouls back in the days, so it is hard to chose a match for this. I made different fouls and of course some of the rookie mistakes.. ;-)

Since you already won the first league 2 times, what are your goals in the future?
In the future I hope to win the first league again,but it will be hard to win it again so we will see what the future brings. First I will try to win my first cup in Kenya, but we have to wait for that for next season, because I am alreay out of the cup for this season. I don't have any ambition to lead a NT/U20 team at one day, because my English is to bad for it..

As last I want to thank Numa for doing this interview in German with me.
Also good luck for you and thank you very much for this.

Greetings from Germany.
Draxi
