According to the original plan of the Chinese Volleyball Association, after the end of the women's volleyball league, the 21-22 season of the men's volleyball league will be in full swing, and all teams have done a good job of personnel integration, some teams have introduced foreign aid, some teams have introduced domestic aid, and the lineup has been adjusted.
However, just as everyone was racing against the clock to prepare for the game, a news about the postponement of the men's volleyball league suddenly appeared, breaking the preparation rhythm of each team. According to Beijing media reports, the men's volleyball league, which was scheduled to start after the Spring Festival, will be postponed until after the Beijing Winter Olympics.
As for why it was postponed, one is to take into account the reasons for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, and the other is that the reform measures of the country's first urban volleyball league have not been decided. Previously, the General Administration of Sport hoped that the associations could move the unconscioned leagues to be held after the Olympic Games; the City Volleyball League is a newly launched three-ball league, how to select the participants, how to calculate the results are in the discussion stage, so in this case, the Chinese Volleyball Association postponed the start of the men's volleyball league.
In fact, this is not the first time that the Chinese Volleyball Association has postponed the men's volleyball league. Recent men's volleyball leagues have been postponed again and again due to the impact of the epidemic. The league that just finished the first round of the 19-20 season was forced to be suspended, and it was not restarted until the middle stage, and the format of the tournament changed greatly, and the league was completed within 2 weeks; the men's volleyball league in the 20-21 season also encountered a similar situation, resulting in the departure of Anderson, the top foreign aid of the Shanghai men's volleyball team.
This season's league, the Shanghai men's volleyball team once again invited 2 high-level foreign aides, and has arrived in Shanghai to participate in joint training. I don't know if after the postponement, will these foreign aid leave China to find another team? For these foreign aides, the Chinese league is a place to pan for gold, especially the level of the men's volleyball league and the international gap. After the postponement of the league, the end date is bound to be postponed, which will affect the secondary employment of foreign aid.
The author suggests that if the men's volleyball league is postponed, it is better to start in May, because May is the day when the men's volleyball world league starts. The Chinese men's volleyball team withdrew from the previous World League, so it also automatically lost the qualification for this World League. When the world's strongest teams are playing in the World League, the Chinese men's volleyball team may wish to use the league to replace. The problem that the Chinese men's volleyball team has now exposed is that there are too few participants, resulting in the team's technical mastery is not comprehensive enough, and it is impossible to see the gap with foreign high-level teams.
The latter cannot be solved because we cannot participate in the world's high-level competitions, but there are too few participants to create conditions. Since the men's volleyball league is to be postponed, it will simply be postponed to May, and also engage in a model with the world league format, so that the men's volleyball team can train instead of the game and prepare for the World Championships and the Asian Games.
