January 13 is the 32nd birthday of Ding Xia, the second passer of the Chinese women's volleyball team. On the day of the birthday, the Chinese women's volleyball official sent her blessings on time, wishing "Happy Birthday Sister Xia, continue to enjoy happy volleyball." Fans and friends also presented gifts, wishing Ding Xia a happy birthday and continuing to struggle.
As a player born in 90 years, Ding Xia can be regarded as a veteran of the Chinese volleyball world, and her contemporaries in the second pass except Yao Di have announced their retirement, while Ding Xia continues to stay on the field to enjoy the happiness brought to her by volleyball. This season's league, Ding Xia participated as the leader of the Liaoning women's volleyball team and the main second pass, helping the team to get the fourth place, although it failed to complete the goal of winning the medal, but Ding Xia's good competitive state still left a deep impression.
At the beginning of the new cycle, the Chinese women's volleyball team will also be re-established, as the main second pass of the Tokyo cycle, whether Ding Xia can be shortlisted for the new women's volleyball national team has attracted much attention, and the key to her successful entry lies in Yao Di and Diao Linyu. Yao Di and Diao Linyu are the second pass of the substitutes in the last cycle, and they will launch a strong challenge to Ding Xia in the new cycle to seize the position of the main force of the national team.
Yao Di has completed his psychological transformation since playing the Olympic Games and the National Games and has become a mature second passer. In the past, Yao Di's feeling to fans was, "There is strength, can not play." "The passing stability is not enough, when the state is up, there is the feeling of the sister Wei Qiuyue, and when the state is not good, it will greatly reduce the firepower of the attacker."
However, in this league, Yao Di is eye-catching, she not only improves her stability a lot, but also the passing vision has become much wider. In many matches, Yao Di achieved a double figure for the team's 4 people, and Wang Baoquan also praised Yao Di's wonderful performance after the game. It is worth mentioning that Yao Di's defensive ability has also made great progress, and many times he fell to the ground to save the ball and contributed a lot of counter-attack opportunities to the team.
Diao Linyu has also made great progress this season. Although many people blame Diao Linyu for the loss of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, it is undeniable that without The passing scheduling of Diao Linyu, the three newcomers of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team Wu Mengjie, Yang Jia and Wan Ziyue could not have played so well. Compared with previous seasons, Diao Linyu's biggest improvement is the rationality of the distribution of the ball, she has repeatedly used the last three to involve the opponent's blocking, and actively mobilize the attack of the secondary attack, so that the team can form a "middle pressure, two sides pulled apart" play.
The good competitive state of Yao Di and Diao Linyu will test Ding Xia's re-selection. The new cycle of the Chinese women's volleyball team is bound to make some adjustments in personnel, and some of the old players may be abandoned. Ding Xia's 90 years, Yao Di 92 years, and Diao Linyu 94 years, in addition to Diao Linyu's slightly younger age, the other two have reached the end of their careers.
For the good development of the women's volleyball team, the coaching team is likely to add fresh blood in the second pass position, so that only 1-2 players can be selected as the players of the pass band among the 3 veterans. Whether to choose Ding Xia, or Yao Di, or Diao Linyu, it depends on the new coach's playing style and philosophy. In fact, at Ding Xia's age, the honors that should be taken have arrived, and now the most important thing is to enjoy their own happy volleyball.
