There are still more than half a month before the start of the World Women's Volleyball League, the official website of the World League updated the chinese women's volleyball team's participation list, compared with the 20-member list of the national team that is currently participating in the training camp, 4 new players have been added, namely Wang Mengjie, Zhonghui, Wang Wenhan and Du Qingqing. Of course, entering the roster does not mean that it will necessarily participate in the World League with the team, according to the rules, each team needs to submit a preliminary selection list in advance, but each sub-station has strict personnel restrictions, and the head coach can rotate the lineup from the preliminary list according to the different opponents and the injury situation within the team. For example, last year, Lang Ping's coach used two sets of lineups to participate in the World League, the first three weeks were a mix of main + substitute lineups, and the last two weeks used the full main force.
After Cai Bin took office, he faced multiple difficulties, especially the absence of Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning at the same time, which greatly reduced the strength of the current national team. Last month, Cai Bin guidance announced the first training list after entering the new cycle, Wang Mengjie and Yao Di and other people's failure, caused a lot of controversy, especially in the position of free man, Wang Mengjie, as the absolute main force of the last cycle, participated in the World Cup, World Championships, Olympic Games and other international competitions with the team, but did not have the opportunity to participate in the first training of the new cycle, the explanation given by Cai Bin guidance is that although Wang Mengjie is very hard in training, but its state has not reached the best, but the door of the national team will always be open to her.
Sure enough, the chinese women's volleyball team list updated by the official website of the World League, Wang Mengjie's name is among them. With the return of Wang Mengjie, the national team currently has a total of 4 players in the free man position, namely Wang Mengjie, Wang Weiyi, Ni Feifan and Xu Jiannan. Judging from the state in the league last season, Wang Weiyi has the opportunity to enter the starting lineup, and Ni Feifan also has the opportunity to compete for this position, but the two have a lot less experience in international competitions than Wang Mengjie. There is still a lot of suspense about what kind of choice Cai Bin will make in the end.
In addition, Zhonghui's selection has also brought about new changes in the competitive situation of the main offensive position. Compared with the previous cycle, the Change of No. 4 position is relatively large, and the two absolute main players before, Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning, are in the recuperation period and have not entered the competition list, so Cai Bin guidance needs to use a new combination in this position. Li Yingying, as the number one substitute in the last cycle, locked in a main position without suspense, but there are great variables about its diagonal candidates, because in the absence of Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning, Li Yingying, as the number one scorer of the Chinese women's volleyball team, its diagonal candidates need to have stable six rounds of one pass ability, but the other main attackers selected, whether it is Wang Yunruo, Jin Ye, Wang Yizhu, or Wu Mengjie and Wang Yifan, there are more or less loopholes in the security link.
However, now with the selection of Zhonghui, this problem will be solved. Zhonghui plays for the Shanghai women's volleyball team, and is more balanced in attack and defense on the field, although he is a small main attacker, Zhonghui has rich offensive means and excellent bouncing ability. More importantly, her pass and defensive coverage is relatively large, and she can share the pressure for her teammates at key moments. Of course, Zhonghui's international competition experience is still relatively lacking, but this year's Chinese women's volleyball team's game task is to focus on the World Championships, and the World League is more like a stage for training and running into the lineup, which is a rare opportunity for Zhonghui.
The other two new team members are Wang Wenhan and Du Qingqing. Among them, Wang Wenhan played the secondary offensive position on the field, but due to the abundant talent in the secondary offensive position, no one can shake except Yuan Xinyue's main position for the time being, Gao Yi, Yang Hanyu, Wang Yuanyuan and Zheng Yixin also have their own characteristics, and the last cycle has also participated in many international competitions with the team, so it is very difficult for Wang Wenhan to compete for the main position. Du Qingqing signed up for the receiving position, in this position, the Chinese women's volleyball team has personnel needs, because Miao Yiwen and Chen Peiyan still have shortcomings in the guarantee link, so Du Qingqing has the opportunity to compete for The position of Gong Xiangyu's substitute, at the same time, Du Qingqing can also be qualified for the main attack of the No. 4 position, is an all-rounder.
