The 2020-2021 Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League officially kicked off at the Jiangmen Sports Center in Guangdong Province, and the night before the match, the confirmed list of 13 participating clubs was announced, and the two national Olympic champions Yuan Xinyue and world champion Liu Yanhan, who have attracted much attention, did not appear in the list of the Liaoning women's volleyball team, which also means that they did not have the opportunity to participate in this year's women's volleyball league. Former national player Wang Yimei also did not appear in the team list, but played with the team as an "official".
Due to the impact of the epidemic, the Chinese women's volleyball team has not participated in international competitions this year, and the women's volleyball team members have conducted a seven-month closed training. In the previous women's volleyball championship, many national players represented their local teams to test the training results, and some national players were absent from the competition at that time. In this women's volleyball league, Zhu Ting, Yan Ni, Liu Xiaotong and Zeng Chunlei, who had previously missed the national championship, all returned to the field and represented Tianjin, Liaoning, Beijing and Beijing respectively. Only Yuan Xinyue and Liu Yanhan missed the women's volleyball league again after missing the national championship, not because of injuries, but because the Bayi women's volleyball team was disbanded, and they could not participate. Although Liaoning Daily previously reported that Yuan Xinyue and Liu Yanhan had signed a contract with the Liaoning women's volleyball team, the two still had to go through the formalities to officially join the Liaoning women's volleyball team and represent the team.
The names of Yuan Xinyue and Liu Yanhan did not appear in the list of 14 members of the Liaoning women's volleyball team released by the Chinese Volleyball Association, and coupled with the fact that there is no second transfer in the women's volleyball league this year, this also means that the two of them have no chance of participating in the women's volleyball league and continue to have no ball to play.
Compared with other teams, the liaoning women's volleyball team has a special position of "official" in the lineup, and it is the former national player Wang Yimei who is called "official". Wang Yimei has held several positions since last year, and in addition to being an active player, she is also a legal person, executive director and manager of Liaoning Huajun Women's Volleyball Club Co., Ltd. Although Wang Yimei has not yet announced her retirement, but this year's women's volleyball league she will not play, but as the "general manager of the Liaoning women's volleyball team" to follow the Liaoning women's volleyball team to play, in the Liaoning women's volleyball training, Wang Yimei on the sidelines of the training, she also posted a photo of the Liaoning women's volleyball team training. Although Wang Yimei has gradually transformed, she still insists on the field, which should be for next year's National Games.
Originally, the Liaoning women's volleyball team had the joining of Yuan Xinyue and Liu Yanhan, and looked forward to impacting the top four in this year's league, because whether it was Yuan Xinyue and Yan Ni or Yuan Xinyue and Ding Xia combination, it was a world-class level. With Yuan Xinyue and Liu Yanhan unable to participate, the competitiveness of the Liaoning women's volleyball team has also declined. The first opponent of the Liaoning women's volleyball team in this year's league is the Shandong women's volleyball team with many national players and strong strength, and the Liaoning women's volleyball team may be difficult to achieve a new season.
