On February 4, Beijing time, according to the news of the Jiangsu Women's Volleyball Fan Association, after Cai Bin took over the Coaching Whip of the Chinese Women's Volleyball Team, the new head coach of the Jiangsu Women's Volleyball Team has also been determined, he is Shi Hairong, who led the Jiangsu Youth Women's Volleyball Team to win the youth group championship at the 14th National Games.
In fact, after the Chinese Volleyball Association officially announced that Cai Bin would serve as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, both fans and the media generally believed that Shi Hairong would succeed him as the new manager of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team. On the one hand, from the head coach of the youth team to the head coach of the first team is the regular promotion path of the domestic provincial and municipal women's volleyball teams; on the other hand, Shi Hairong's achievements in leading the Jiangsu youth women's volleyball team to win the National Games championship also prove their coaching ability. The only uncertainty is whether Cai Bin will choose to bring the right-hand man to the national team coaching staff. Some fans may ask, is it not feasible for the assistant coach of the national team to be the head coach of the provincial team? From the current point of view, it is indeed unlikely. After all, at that time, An Jiajie also resigned as the head coach of the Shandong women's volleyball team after being selected by Lang Ping as an assistant.
Shi Hairong, 45 years old, is 1.92 meters tall, a former Chinese men's volleyball player, and the main attacker. Shi Hairong, who is known for his comprehensive technology, pulled apart the fourth position very quickly, and was one of the best men's volleyball main attackers in China at his peak. At the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Shi Hairong, who had already faded out of the national team, was recalled by head coach Zhou Jian'an to help the Chinese men's volleyball team win the fifth place and create the best record in the history of the Olympic Games. After retiring from the army, Shi Hairong transformed into a coach, and in recent years, as Cai Bin's right-hand man, he has received attention and is one of the most optimistic young coaches in the domestic women's volleyball world. After Shi Hairong took office in the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, the core of the team, Zhang Changning and Gong Xiangyu, also ushered in a new championship support, and will launch an impact on the new national transport cycle together with rising star Wu Mengjie.
