The national table tennis preparation event is heating up, and the change of coach has attracted attention. In May this year, the national table tennis will usher in a key competition, and the team is preparing intensively. In the context of Li Falcon's imminent retirement and the position of head coach hanging in the balance, the competition is extremely fierce. In the past few weeks, the national table tennis team has successfully completed the task of the Table Tennis World Cup, and the performance of the players and coaches has attracted much attention. Li Falcon's retirement is almost a foregone conclusion, and the succession battle within the national table tennis is becoming clearer.
Li Falcon was originally reused due to the lack of excellent coaches, and his role became a turning point in national table tennis. Nowadays, with the change of the coaching team, the coaches of national table tennis choose to focus on Wang Hao, Ma Lin and Xiao Zhan. In the early days, Wang Hao and Ma Lin had an advantage in the competition by virtue of their mentor-apprentice relationship with Liu Guoliang. However, Lee's decision was tilted in favour of Xiao Zhan, and the mixed doubles team leader was praised for his outstanding coaching talent.
Xiao Zhan's nomination was not optimistic at first, especially after the Tokyo Olympics, the national table tennis mixed doubles suffered a setback, and the overall performance was not good. Despite this, Xiao Zhan's performance during his tenure has gradually won recognition, and his excellent coaching ability makes him a strong contender for the position of head coach, which is extremely beneficial to the future development of national table tennis.
Liu Guoliang also adjusted his attitude towards Xiao Zhan and no longer ignored his coaching potential, so as to reduce the pressure of his public opinion and focus on the affairs of the International Table Tennis Federation. At the same time, Ma Lin and Wang Hao are feeling the pressure to quickly prove their coaching ability in order to maintain an edge in the competition.
In this round of major changes in the national table tennis coaching team, Xiao Zhan's future is brighter, and he may make history by becoming the first candidate to be promoted from mixed doubles team leader to head coach. This competition is not only related to the individual's career, but also to the strategic layout and future achievements of national table tennis.
