At present, the national table tennis players are actively preparing for various competition tasks in April, and the coaching staff behind them is not easy. The current competition at the level of the coaching staff is also fierce, especially the competition for the head coach of the national table tennis has received great attention, although this position is helmed by the meritorious coach Li Falcon, but it is a foregone conclusion that he will leave the national table tennis at an advanced age. There is also widespread concern about who will be able to take his place in the future after he leaves.
Unlike the previous general belief that Liu Guoliang, chairman of the Table Tennis Association, will play an important decisive role in the election of the head coach of the national table tennis coach, Li Falcon, who is now the party, is more important in what kind of employment attitude, and can even change the competitive landscape. For the replacement candidate, Li Falcon obviously appreciates Xiao Zhan, the leader of the mixed doubles team with excellent coaching talents.
Instead of Ma Lin or Wang Hao, who were regarded as popular candidates before, Li Falcon has publicly corrected Ma Lin's coaching ideas many times, and it can be seen that he is very dissatisfied with Ma Lin's employment, and it is obviously a fantasy to want to take over his position with his current performance.
Unable to bear it, Li finally publicly announced at the last Singapore Grand Slam tournament that he would adjust the selection model and pay more attention to the players' performance in foreign battles. And pointed out that the female table tennis player Wang Yidi has lost too many foreign battles and has missed the competition for singles places, and in the previous competition, Wang Yidi occupied an absolute initiative in the competition by virtue of her relationship with Ma Lin.
Li Falcon's official announcement has changed the competitive landscape of female table tennis players, and it has also changed the competitive position among coaches. That is, if you want to take over your position, you must show a better performance, at least a convincing coaching performance, in order to have the possibility of being on top. For this point, Liu Guoliang, as the chairman of the Table Tennis Association, also began to gradually recognize this selection model.
In the past, because of the continuous promotion of Wang Hao and Ma Lin, the two former lovers, he has been caught in the turmoil of public opinion many times. Now that Li Falcon has helped him alleviate the word-of-mouth criticism from the outside world, he will inevitably support the change in coaching, and the only one who will be affected is Ma Lin, who has always regarded himself as a replacement. You must come up with enough convincing coaching ability and results in order to keep yourself on the top of the competition.
Otherwise, it is very likely to be suppressed by Xiao Zhan, who has better coaching ability, and will not be eligible for the position of head coach of national table tennis. As an excellent coach of national table tennis, Xiao Zhan brought the national table tennis mixed doubles that fell into a trough back on track after serving as the leader of the mixed doubles team, and saw the hope of competing for the championship in the Paris Olympics.
