"I know there is some mistrust between the players, the coaches and the BJA and I want to make a clear communication between us all."The greatest challenge Quellmalz faces is the time factor. It is eight months to the World Championships and it is unacceptable for the British team to finish without a medal on home ground. However, the British men have not won a world senior medal for over a decade, and face-saving has come from the women.He will have some idea of the task at hand this weekend when Kate Howey and Danny Kingston lead the British team to the Tournoi de Paris, a strong event which sees most top countries, including Korea and Japan, competing.Udo Quellmalz is 32, serious, likeable and straight-forward - a hero in his own land, even though he is a product of the East German sports system. And while the relatively new BJA chairman, Lesley-Anne Alexander, has been creating some order out of the post-Atlanta mess, there is clearly a long way to go."I know it will be difficult," said Quellmalz. Last year the men's and women's squads returned from the European team champion-ships medal-less. Not the most diplomatic gesture by Kingston, it must be said, for his future will be very much in the hands of Quellmalz.

Despite some hitches, King-ston's successes have pinpointed him as the man most likely to win a medal at the World Championships in Birmingham in October and the Sydney Olympics - and thus give Quellmalz a key result British men's judo needs. Though Quellmalz took on the best in the world, winning virtually every major champi-onship, he will find the British job of chief coach even tougher. FATE HAS played a curious trick on Udo Quellmalz, Germany's world and Olympic champion, now chief coach to the British Judo Association. In his final international competition last year, he was summarily thrown on his back by none other than Danny Kingston, the former British European lightweight champion. His partnership with Dawson, who hit 45, put on 142 for the fifth wicket.But the batsmen, Gough included, got bogged down after lunch when New Zealand took the new ball and only 24 runs were scored in 24 overs.The Kiwi openers survived the last session to finish on 55 without loss.Second day; England won tossNEW ZEALAND UNDER-19 - First innings 110 (J R Tucker 5-35).ENGLAND UNDER-19 - First innings (Overnight 126 for 4)*M A Gough c McGlashan b Franklin 116R K J Dawson b Martin 45M P L Bulbeck c and b Shaw 7J R Tucker lbw b Martin 5M A Wallace lbw b Martin 0G R Bridge not out 2M J A Whiley c Englefield b Franklin 0Extras b3 lb5 nb24 32Total (104 overs) 225Fall (cont): 5-189 6-206 7-223 8-223 9-223Bowling: Shaw 24-5-59-5; Hammond 26-7-54-0 Hendry 8-2-15-0 Martin 27- 12-42-3; Franklin 19-3-47-2.NEW ZEALAND UNDER-19 - Second inningsM Papps not out 26T McIntosh not out 29Total (for 0, 40 overs) 55To bat: *J Englefield, J Franklin, L Hammond, M Hendry, P McGlashan, J McNamee, B Martin, B Patton, H Shaw.Bowling: Bulbeck 12-5-14-0; Whiley 10-4-13-0; Haywood 3-1-4-0; Tucker 2-0-14-0; Dawson 7-3-5-0; Bridge 6-4-5-0.Umpires: R Garland and D Alexander.. He brought up his hundred with an on-driven four off Bruce Martin.

He was later dropped at square leg on 116 but he did not add another run and was ninth out after a marathon 396-minute innings. Although the tourists are still in the driving seat, they would have expected a much greater lead, having gone to lunch at 201 for 5.Gough picked up where he left off at the end of the first day, batting with great maturity and determination. NZ Under-19 110 and 55-0 England Under-19 225 DESPITE A century by their captain Michael Gough, England Under- 19s yesterday failed to build on the advantage they had gained in the second Test with New Zealand in Wellington. England lost their last four wickets for only two runs as they were bowled out for 225, a first-innings lead of 115. Key, the Kent opener, appeared comfortable on his England A debut before he drove Strang to a waiting Trevor Madondo at mid-on. Flintoff, the Lancashire all-rounder, soon followed when a ball from Whittall spun off his bat on to leg stump.First day; England won tossENGLAND A - First InningsD L Maddy c Blignaut b A R Whittall 64*M P Vaughan c A R Whittall b Strang 0M B Loye not out 122R W T Key c Madondo b Strang 23A Flintoff b A R Whittall 2V S Solanki not out 36Extras (lb4 nb5) 9Total (for 4, 99 overs) 256Fall: 1-12 2-134 3-178 4-189To bat: G P Swann, C M W Read, D A Cosker, J D Lewry, S J Harmison.Bowling: Blignaut 14-3-41-0; Strang 27-9-71- 2; G J Whittall 9-3-25-0; A R Whittall 25-4-56-2; Huckle 21-7-53-0; Viljoen 3-0-6-0.ZIMBABWE A: T R Gripper, C B Wishart, T N Madondo, G J Whittall, S V Carlisle, D P Viljoen, C P Gurr, *A R Whittall, B C Strang, A M Blignaut, A G Huckle.Umpires: G R Evans and E J Gillmour..
