When an athlete, the most feared thing is to write a year-end summary, do not know where to summarize, do not know where to write, the most real idea at that time is to throw the pen to find the coach: "I go to the track and field field to run, run as many laps as you want, as long as I don't write a summary." ”

But as my experience increases, I feel more and more that summarizing is a very necessary thing, it is not a running account of what has been done this year, but when things have passed, and have been repeated many times in the mind, intentionally or unintentionally, a deeper understanding, and guidance for the future direction. So this year, I don't need the coach to urge, write my own summary, hoping to share with you the feelings and gains of this year.

Today, let me first talk about my views on the Chinese badminton team this year. Under the influence of the epidemic, the number of Chinese teams participating in the game may be the lowest in history. In the first half of the three races in Thailand, many athletes from foreign associations complained that the hotel food was not good, and when I chatted with the Chinese team members, they would say that as long as they let them play the game, it didn't matter what they ate.

It can be seen that the players at that time were eager for the game. Competitive sports, training and competition are to be organically combined, no training game is no root, and training without competition is no result. Intuitively speaking, only training for a long time and not playing a game will use a kind of confusion that only advances but does not know where the target is, which is easy to cause training to be not targeted, resulting in a disconnect between training and competition, and training cannot be played in the game.

It is precisely for this reason that before the Chinese team went to the Olympic Games, I was actually quite worried. Originally, in this Olympic cycle, our advantages are not obvious, and the strong enemies of the foreign association basically have the actual combat of international events before the Olympic Games, and compared with them, our absolute strength and competition feeling will be worse.

But with the Progress of the Olympic Games, the performance of the Chinese team deserves everyone's praise. The lineup of young players in this Olympic games is very young, and the first time young players participate in the competition is basically two extremes, either the momentum is full of blockbusters, or it is awkward to eliminate, many times the latter is the norm, but this Olympic Games, our young lineup collectively showed a strong momentum, 5 individual events all reached the final.
