On April 26, Beijing time, Japanese women's volleyball player Haruka Miyashita announced that next month's Black Flag match will be the last battle of his career, and the news of the retirement of a generation of talented girls in the women's volleyball team has also aroused strong concern from netizens.
Haruka Miyashita, who was born in 1994, will celebrate her 30th birthday in September this year, and with a height of 1.76 meters, she is already a rare tall setter in the Japanese women's volleyball team. Haruka Miyashita is an out-and-out talented girl, who was selected for the Japanese women's volleyball national team at the age of 15, which is the youngest record in 30 years after Kumi Nakata. In the 2013 World Women's Volleyball Grand Prix Finals, Zhu Ting praised Haruka Miyashita after the game against the Japanese women's volleyball team, she said: "I feel that she is also a genius in the volleyball world, she passes the ball better, and her brain is clearer, she rarely passes the ball with a double block, and the defense is also better, I feel that I can be a half free man." ”
At that time, Haruka Miyashita was only 19 years old, which was still very young for the position of setter, but he had already received recognition and attention from opponents and fans in the world volleyball world. If it weren't for the Masayoshi Manabe's experiment with the "MB1" tactic, which was the head coach of the Japanese women's volleyball team at the time, Haruka Miyashita's achievements might have been far more than what it is now. Because she was assigned to play the role of a central blocker, Haruka Miyashita's knee injury worries not only became serious over time, but also affected her passing. The poor performance at the Rio Olympics gave her the evaluation of "good skills except passing", which also hit her confidence, and she was not selected for the Japanese women's national volleyball team in the following years.
After Kumi Nakata became the head coach of the Japanese women's volleyball team, she personally found Haruka Miyashita to persuade her to return to the team, mainly taking on the task of serving as a substitute and the "two-for-three" tactic. However, there is still a very obvious gap from the amazing performance of the "generation of women's volleyball genius girls" at the beginning of her debut, and after being selected for the 14-member list of the Japanese team in the second week of the 2022 World Women's Volleyball Nations League, she will never be able to compete in the international arena again. Haruka Miyashita, who is approaching the age, has the same delicate face as before, and is still the appearance of the white-skinned and beautiful volleyball goddess, but she is already planning to leave the volleyball court to start a new chapter in her life.
