The national table tennis has begun to prepare for the new season in 2022, and as a young player who has performed well in the past year, Sun Yingsha's state is also of great concern to everyone. After last year's Olympic Games, Sun Yingsha's mentor Huang Haicheng left the team, and Sun Yingsha also faced a vacancy in charge of coaching. In fact, Sun Yingsha was able to reach the women's singles final at the World Table Tennis Championships without a competent coach, which once again reflects her difficulties. A few days ago, Li Falcon, the head coach of the national table tennis women's team, also responded to Sun Yingsha's coaching question. Li Falcon said that the candidate is still not determined, or can only be arranged temporarily.
The national table tennis women's team has completed the replacement of old and new in the past year, and Grand Slam winner and captain Ding Ning retired and entered Peking University to study. Veteran Liu Shiwen broke the sand in Tokyo and regrettably rubbed shoulders with the mixed doubles gold medal. Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu have proved themselves through a series of major events at home and abroad, such as the Olympic Games, the World Table Tennis Championships, the National Games, and the WTT World Cup Final, and have become the three giants of the new generation of the national table tennis women's team. The world ranking of the three people is also the highest in the national table tennis team, and it can be seen that according to the development of this trend, the main structure of the national table tennis in this Olympic cycle has taken shape.
As a post-00s young general, Sun Yingsha has attracted special attention. As we all know, in order to compete with the national table tennis association, the Japan Table Tennis Association has adopted a policy of off-generation training in the past few years, so that a group of newcomers such as Tomokazu Zhang Ben, Mimachi Ito, Hina Hayata, and Miyu Hirano take the lead. These post-00s players have brought a lot of pressure to the national table tennis, especially Zhang Benzhihe and Ito Mimachi, who have also achieved some victories in the confrontation with the main force of national table tennis. And we now have our own post-00s masters Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin, it can be said that this is a response of the national table tennis to the youth strategy of the Japanese Table Tennis Association.
But Sun Faces a Problem, which is that her head coach, Huang Haicheng, left last year, and she faces a temporary lack of head coaches. A few days ago, Li Falcon, the head coach of the national table tennis women's team, responded to this problem. Li Falcon said that the coaching team is also actively thinking of ways for Sun Yingsha's continued growth and future development, whether it is arranging for Olympic champion Chen Xuan to take her, or letting Sun Yingsha's previous head coach in the provincial team Yang Guangdi assist in preparation, as well as cooperating with other styles of coaches, the purpose is to help Sun Yingsha grow rapidly.
From Li Falcon's statement, it is not difficult to hear that Sun Yingsha's current candidate for the head coach has not yet been determined, and it is still a temporary arrangement. The possibility of Chen Xuan in charge of Sun Yingsha is not very likely, and Yang Guangdi may only be assisting in the preparation, Li Falcon revealed that trying to cooperate with Sun Yingsha with different styles of coaches is also testing which coach is more suitable for Sun Yingsha. For this post-00 potential stock, Li Falcon and the national table tennis are very important, they did not rush to arrange a supervisor coach for Sun Yingsha, I am afraid that it is also necessary to carefully consider, hoping to find a supervisor coach who is more tacit with Sun Yingsha.
Coaching will play a very critical role in the development of athletes, such as Qin Zhijian to Ma Long, Xiao Zhan to Zhang Jike and Wang Manyu, so for Sun Yingsha, the importance of being in charge of coaching is self-evident. I hope that Li Falcon and the national table tennis coaching team can seriously consider and find a suitable competent coach for Sun Yingsha as soon as possible!
