The World Women's Volleyball Nations League is about to kick off! The Chinese women's volleyball team has arrived in Brazil to participate in the first leg of the competition. In this Brazil station, the Chinese women's volleyball team is facing a difficult challenge, because it will face two major rivals, the United States and Serbia. Under the current situation, it is not easy for the Chinese women's volleyball team to defeat its opponents. Some people may wonder why Zhu Ting is not allowed to return if the opponent is so strong? On this point, we need to explore in detail.
In the past, the World Women's Volleyball League did not seem to be taken seriously. But this year's league is particularly crucial, mainly because tickets to the Olympics are waiting to be won. Six teams have already been confirmed for last year's Olympic Qualification Tournament, while the remaining six spots will be allocated through this tournament. The champion of each continent will qualify directly for the Olympic Games. Obviously, getting a ticket to the Olympics is the ultimate goal of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
The World Women's Volleyball Nations League has three sub-stations, including Macau and Hong Kong in addition to Brazil. Zhu Ting is temporarily absent from the first event, mainly because she has just returned from the European arena and needs to rest. According to Coach Cai Bin, Zhu Ting will return to the team in Macau. Therefore, it seems unnecessary to question Zhu Ting's failure to participate in Brazil.
However, the Chinese Volleyball Association's decision is still controversial. As we all know, Zhu Ting is very important to the team. There are reports that Zhu Ting has been back to China for four days and is playing badminton at home with her sister. Under normal circumstances, the return of a superstar like Zhu Ting should be taken seriously and publicized by the official media, but it is rarely reported. In addition, the official did not make any statement on Zhu Ting's return to the team, which is thought-provoking. What's behind it, or what are some other undisclosed stories? This caused a heated discussion among netizens.
Here, I have something to think about. Zhu Ting has not officially joined the national team, and she has been out of the public eye for a long time. If Zhu Ting joins, I believe that the Volleyball Association and the women's volleyball team will make some moves. When Zhu Ting previously announced her return, she mentioned that she will not participate in any commercial activities and product endorsements, and her goal is only to help the Chinese women's volleyball team win the Olympic ticket. This may be the reason why the Volleyball Association and the women's volleyball team did not hype it up.
