A few days ago, the WTT World Table Tennis Federation announced that Xu Xin, the world champion of national table tennis, participated in the executive committee of the Asian Table Tennis Alliance as the first vice chairman, and as an active athlete, Xu Xin also shouldered a new mission: to promote table tennis and strive for fairness and more discourse for the national table tennis players. The World Table Tennis Federation specially posted a photo of Xu Xin and his son to congratulate Xu Xin.
National table tennis has entered the Paris Olympic cycle, the first task is to complete the replacement of the old and new, the Chinese women's table tennis side, Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu picked the beam, Wang Yidi, Chen Xingtong's upward momentum is also good, Liu Shiwen is the only veteran at the main level of women's table tennis, she will not retire for the time being, and will strive for good results, but overall, the smooth transition of Chinese women's table tennis, the age structure of the team is more reasonable.
On the Chinese men's table tennis side, the coaching team should cultivate the successors of Ma Long and Xu Xin, if Fan Zhendong is Ma Long's successor, Wang Chuqin may become Xu Xin's successor, because Wang Chuqin is also very comprehensive, can be both men's singles, men's doubles and mixed doubles, Liu Guoliang and the coaching team have long been so prepared. For Ma Long and Xu Xin, their careers have been perfect, and as veterans, they really have to consider transformation.
In the past, many retired athletes of national table tennis became coaches, such as Ma Lin, Wang Hao, Qiu Yike and other people in the national table tennis coaching, Ma Long and Xu Xin can also embark on the road of coaching, in addition, they can also play an important role in international table tennis organizations. Xu Xin took the first step, he was elected as the first vice chairman of the Asian Table Tennis Federation as an active athlete, and if he retires in the future, Xu Xin can devote himself to the work of the Asian Table Tennis Alliance.
After participating in the Grand Slam competition, Xu Xin attended the meeting of the executive committee of the Asian Table Tennis Alliance, and according to the WTT World Table Tennis Federation, Liu Guoliang was also invited to participate. At this meeting, Xu Xin participated in the discussion of important issues such as the adjustment of the world ranking system, the preparation of large-scale events in China, and the exchanges and cooperation between various table tennis associations. Although Xu Xin has achieved very good results on the field, the role change requires Xu Xin to use his brain, which is also a challenge for him.
WTT World Table Tennis Federation said that Olympic champion Xu Xin clarified his responsibilities, he wants to promote table tennis, for the national table tennis players to fight for fair and more voice. In the past, everyone often discussed the issue of national table tennis for the right to speak, Xu Xin is going to put it into practice, we must not only win on the field, but also play the most important role off the field.
It can be said that Xu Xin's performance in the field and outside the field is excellent, and the WTT World Table Tennis Federation specially posted a photo of Xu Xin and his son to congratulate Xu Xin. I believe that Xu Xin will continue to work hard and achieve good results on the field, and when Xu Xin retires, I believe he can also gain a firm foothold in the Asian Table Tennis League and play a greater role!
