On December 15, the 2021-2022 Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League will start the second stage of competition. However, due to the alternative arrangement of the volleyball association for the second stage format, the first stage of the stage was completely reduced to "chicken ribs".
The weaker the ratio! Compare alternative format arrangements.
A successful league, with the deepening of the competition stage, the increase of strong dialogue, the competition gradually entered a better state, the more exciting it will be. However, the volleyball association's format arrangement for the second stage of the volleyball super league this season broke this convention and set a new record.
The Volleyball Association divided the second stage of the league into two stages, with the first stage deciding the final six and the second stage deciding the final four. The focus of the fans' complaints is the format of stage 1.
According to the competition arrangement of the Volleyball Association, the first stage of the second stage of the Super League will be divided into two groups, the top three of the first stage of Group A and the last four of Group B will form a new Group C; the top three of Group B and the last four of Group A of the first stage will form the new Group D. The two groups each played a single round robin, but the results of the first stage were carried into the second stage, and the teams that had already played each other no longer played, and the top three in the group were decided to advance to the round of six in the second stage.
In this way, the competition in stage 1 of the second stage has completely become a match between the top three in Group A and Group B and the bottom four in the other group. The difference in strength is huge, there is no strong dialogue at all, and the overall confrontation is not as good as the first stage, and the more it is, the weaker it is. Only the matches between Shenzhen and Zhejiang and the strong team can create some suspense, and the other games are not unexpectedly one-sided.
In the first stage, there have been too many strong and weak competitions, which have caused dissatisfaction among the audience, and the first stage of the second stage has carried forward this trend, and the consequences can be imagined.
Stage 2 is the top three in Group C and the top three in Group D to form a new Group E, a single round robin, although the teams that have already played no longer play, but the other opponents are also strong teams, the league can begin to really compete, the format is still normal.
I hope that the Volleyball Association can use dim sum.
The main consideration of the volleyball association's arrangement for the first stage of the second stage of the Volleyball Super League may be to extend the schedule and increase the number of games so that the players can play more games. It should be said that the original intention of the volleyball association is good, but the actual effect is speechless, add some strong dialogue, the audience and the team are satisfied, and the large-scale manufacturing of strong and weak sides will only be counterproductive.
In fact, many of the arrangements of the Volleyball Association this season are like fireworks that do not eat human beings, no wonder it has caused many fans to complain. At the beginning of the season, there was a temporary change in the policy of foreign aid use; the arrangement of the format was cloudy and foggy, and it was difficult for outsiders to understand; the All-Star Game had no audience interaction, no entertainment, and the two games were hastily sent off, giving people the feeling of "sending a charge"; the costumes of the two teams in the All-Star Game were strikingly similar, and the eyes were not good and it was really difficult to distinguish clearly; the All-Star Game medal uniform, the one-color black dress, was completely inconsistent with the joyous and entertaining game of the All-Star Game, and so on.
It should be said that things like the format arrangement, all-star organization are not very difficult, there are many successful leagues at home and abroad to refer to, the volleyball association only uses snacks, more learning, will not be too bad.
Their own children hurt themselves. Regardless of whether it is the Volleyball Super League or our own league, the fans still have to give a certain tolerance. I hope that the Volleyball Super League can be better and better!
Are you satisfied with the arrangements for the Volleyball Super League this season? What needs to be improved? Welcome to high opinions.
