In the "post-Zhu Ting era", the new army alternates between the old and the new. Zhao Yong continued, "The position of head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team is the ultimate pursuit and goal of all volleyball workers, especially the women's volleyball coach, and it is indeed a great honor and responsibility to become the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team."

The new Chinese women's volleyball team has a total of 19 players, recruiting a large number of new blood, including Gong Xiangyu, Wang Yuanyuan, Wang Mengjie and Li Yingying, 4 world champions.

To be at the forefront of the world, you must insist on a fast and changeable style of play.

The whole training atmosphere is very good, the veteran players love the young athletes, and the young athletes also respect the veteran players and humbly learn the advantages of the veteran players. ”

With the continuous progress of many European teams such as Italy and Turkey, coupled with traditional strong teams such as Brazil and the United States, the competition of the women's volleyball team is becoming more and more fierce, Zhao Yong believes that the Chinese women's volleyball team must adhere to its own fast and changeable style of play in order to remain at the forefront of the world, "First of all, the technology must be comprehensive, the style is tough, and the fast and changeable style has always been the technical and tactical style of the Chinese women's volleyball team. We will follow this idea and implement it more reasonably and scientifically according to the actual situation of the existing athletes. ”

25 years of Chinese women's volleyball training list

Aim to be on the podium at the 2028 Olympics. The Chinese women's volleyball team ushered in the World Women's Volleyball League (VNL) in June, and then played in the Women's Volleyball World Championship in August. I believe that with down-to-earth training every day and the accumulation of bits and pieces, I will finally realize my ideals. ”
