Original title: Lang Ping has become a past tense, where does the Chinese women’s volleyball team go?
On the first day of September, Lang Ping announced that he would leave the position of head coach of the Chinese women’s volleyball team.
This is something that will come sooner or later, and everyone is mentally prepared, but because of an article titled “Why the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team defeated Dongying” on the official website of the Chinese Volleyball Association, and the Chinese Volleyball Association’s explanation on this article, let Lang directed the official announcement at this time is particularly worthy of attention.
This article reprinted by the Chinese Volleyball Association is more comprehensive and analyzes the reasons why the Chinese women’s volleyball team defeated Tokyo from various aspects. After reading the full text, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a critical article against Lang Ping, because the latter part of the article focuses on criticizing the Chinese women’s volleyball team’s model of the big national team and Gao Dahua’s emphasis on online thinking-these two aspects are exactly The main changes after Lang Ping entered the Chinese women’s volleyball team for the second time.
Of course, the Chinese women’s volleyball team can be criticized, but it also needs to be criticized. In particular, the Chinese have a special complex for the Chinese women’s volleyball team, and the calm thinking amidst the praise is even more valuable. However, fans who know a little about the Chinese women’s volleyball team should also know that the two major changes involving Lang Ping (that is, the high-levelization and the big national team model) have been debated for a long time, and some people are not so accepting. This kind of controversy has existed since Lang Ping took over the Chinese women’s volleyball team for the second time until the Rio Olympics, but because the Rio Olympics finally won the championship, different voices were temporarily hidden.
Until the Chinese women’s volleyball team defeated Tokyo, it was finally time to come.
I admire the author of the article. After all, I am still worrying about the Chinese women’s volleyball team when I am over ninety years old. This in itself is a kind of deep love. Moreover, I agree with many of the contents in the article. For example, when it comes to the Chinese women’s volleyball team’s lack of ability in small balls, it is indeed quite obvious. In fact, European and American opponents have done better than us in many aspects such as fastball, back fly, and lob, and these were originally what we were good at. But we should also understand that admitting that we are lacking in small ball technology does not mean that the way to become bigger is wrong. There are not so many black and white things in this world. In fact, looking at our European and American opponents, we can understand that eclecticism is king.
As for the big national team model, I think the performance of the Chinese women’s volleyball team in Lang Ping’s coaching process over the past few years is enough to explain the problem. We cannot feel that there is no need to engage in big national teams just because the team’s main force framework is relatively fixed. Moreover, given the limited number and quality of leagues, the big national team model is not the one that allows more seedlings to see a higher level. Competition, to accumulate more international competition experience?
The Chinese Volleyball Association’s explanation pointed out that the opinions criticized in the article are not the opinions of the Volleyball Association, nor do they represent the opinions of the Volleyball Association. “One defeat cannot deny the great contribution made by coach Lang Ping.” I don’t think this is important. The important thing is that the Chinese women’s volleyball team has now entered the post-langping era. As the management organization, the Chinese Volleyball Association should seriously consider the next direction of the Chinese women’s volleyball team. The most important one is who the new head coach of the Chinese women’s volleyball team will use. No matter who I use, I hope that the new coach is a coach with his own system and independent thinking.
Lang Ping became the former head coach of the Chinese women’s volleyball team, but she left the Chinese women’s volleyball team in the right general direction. Those precious wealth should not be completely denied.
The Japanese women’s volleyball team has been good in small ball skills for so many years, even after Takeshita Yoshie retired, they have always maintained this style, but until today their status and strength in the world women’s volleyball are not much improved. The Chinese women’s volleyball team itself is on the right path. Even if we need to regain our previous small ball advantage on the basis of emphasizing the Internet, it is absolutely not necessary to completely overthrow it.
