Since Lang Ping left office on September 1, 2021, the women's volleyball head coach has been empty for more than 4 months, with the end of the women's volleyball league, as well as the world women's volleyball league and the world championship approaching, many people are still a little "anxious", after all, everyone is still full of expectations for the women's volleyball team, always think that Tokyo's defeat is just an accident, but the selection of the coach is not a simple thing, the head coach only has the absolute right to speak and use human rights, then maybe it can be more handy.
From Lang Ping's first take over of the women's volleyball team, to the second departure of these more than twenty years of time, although not the most brilliant period of the women's volleyball team, but it is the closest to everyone, so we are also counting the head coaching turnover of this period, it is not difficult to find that the 4-month window period is not the longest, Lang Ping resigned for the first time in March 1999, her successor is Hu Jin, Hu Jin chose to resign in August after the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000, and the head coach's candidate was not taken over by Chen Zhonghe until February 2, 2001 , the period difference is nearly 6 months.
After Chen Zhonghe served as the head coach, he also led the Chinese women's volleyball team to take off again for eight years, and the head coach of other times during this period was basically seamless, Chen Zhonghe and Cai Bin, Cai Bin and Wang Baoquan, Wang Baoquan and Yu Juemin, but the result of this was not very good, the most direct embodiment is that Yu Juemin led the team to participate in the 2010 World Championships only 1 month after taking office, and only achieved the tenth place result.
And Yu Juemin's successor is Lang Ping, who served as the head coach for the second time, Yu Juemin resigned in September 2012, until April 2013, Lang Ping was in danger, and this is also the longest time for the head coach of the women's volleyball team, that is, 7 months, and since then, the women's volleyball team has taken off again, so this all invisibly tells us a truth, that is, the problem of women's volleyball coach selection must not be in a hurry, and 4 months of waiting is not nothing.
However, the current situation is still somewhat different from when Chen Zhonghe and Lang Ping took over before, because there were no women's volleyball three competitions in 2001 and 2013, so the head coach and the players can also run in well, and when Lang Ping took over at that time, it happened to encounter the change of the volleyball center, and Pan Zhichen took over Xu Li as the director of the volleyball center.
This time also happens to be the expiration of director Li Quanqiang's term of office, Li Quanqiang is 60 years old this year, but also reached the age of retirement, and as we said earlier, the head coach needs to speak and use human rights, and whether to decide to decentralize, it is obvious that the management center has the final say, so this is also an opportunity.
Although the World Series is important, but what we want is the stability of the head coach, can not go to the post, the result is the uninterrupted training of the players, resulting in the players themselves have lost their direction, we need the kind of head coach who has a long job, willing to work, and has the confidence to do it, so that the women's volleyball team can develop better, it is clear that Chen Zhonghe and Lang Ping before are such people, do not know who will inherit their excellence, we wait and see.
