On September 23, the Chinese women’s volleyball team submitted a 14-player roster to the FIVB. Freeman Ni Feifan and forward setter Yu Jiarui missed the World Championships due to injuries. Olympic champions Yuan Xinyue, Ding Xia and Gong Xiangyu, World Cup champions Li Yingying and Wang Yuanyuan will become the backbone of the current Chinese women’s volleyball team. Although the World Championship roster is not much different from the previous Women’s Volleyball World League, head coach Cai Bin said that the team has made great progress in all aspects through the training camp after the Women’s Volleyball World League .
Make up for your shortcomings with very intensive training
According to head coach Cai Bin, in the previous Women’s Volleyball World League, the Chinese women’s volleyball team achieved results and revealed many problems. During the subsequent training camp in Beilun, the Chinese women’s volleyball team made up for the shortcomings through high-intensity training. As well as continuing to run in the current line-up, Cai Bin supervised young players in individual positions to lay the groundwork for the Paris Olympics. After the closed training camp in Beilun ended, Cai Bin decided on a 16 man line. The day before the opening ceremony of the Women’s Volleyball World Championships, the 14-man roster was finally released.
In the list of 14 men announced by the Chinese women’s volleyball team, Olympic champions Yuan Xinyue, Gong Xiangyu, Ding Xia, and World Cup champions such as Li Yingying and Wang Yuanyuan are listed. In addition, the main attack is Wang Yunhuan, Jin Ye, Wang Yizhu, the auxiliary attack Wang Yuanyuan, Gao Yi, the supporter Chen Peiyan, the substitutes Diao Linyu and the free man Wang Weiyi, are the first appearances in the Championships World . In the most important setter position, Diao Linyu will be on the World Championships stage for the first time. 28-year-old Diao Linyu served as the main setter in the Women’s Volleyball World League this season, and has a tacit understanding with Li Yingying, Yuan Xinyue and Gong Xiangyu. Olympic champion Ding Xia is expected to continue playing in this World Championships. The veteran’s participation experience and on-the-spot performance will add more tactical changes to the Chinese women’s volleyball team.
Before the expedition, he invited Zhejiang men’s volleyball team to play a teaching competition
On the main offensive line, head coach Cai Bin continued to put Li Yingying in the most important position in the main offensive position. During the Women’s Volleyball World League, Li Yingying performed brilliantly from offense to first pass. In Li Yingying’s diagonal position, head coach Cai Bin selected two Beijing teams to attack Jin Ye and Wang Yunliu. Wang Yizhu came the fourth main attack. Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning were both sidelined by injuries at the Women’s Volleyball World Championships. Li Yingying needs teammates to share the pressure of offense and first pass. Wang Yunhui and Jin Ye stood out in the end because of their outstanding defense. However, the problem of the two’s lack of offensive ability still needs to be solved by Cai Bin through scheduling on the spot.
In the sub-attack position, the captains Yuan Xinyue and Wang Yuanyuan still occupy the main positions, while Yang Hanyu and Gao Yi deputize for them. Although the Chinese women’s volleyball team has a height advantage in this position, Yuan Xinyue has yet to prove that she has a blocking advantage that matches her height. This World Championship is Yuan Xinyue’s first time playing as the captain, and her performance is crucial to the performance of the Chinese women’s volleyball team.
Gong Xiangyu served as the main force in the supporting position, and Chen Peiyan became her deputy. In the free agent situation, Olympic members Wang Mengjie and Wang Weiyi were selected. Teenager Ni Feifan missed the World Championships due to a hand injury. Before going to the World Championships, the Chinese women’s volleyball team played a number of group competitions, and also invited the Zhejiang men’s volleyball team to play a teaching competition.

The transformation of Zeng Chunlei and Liu Xiaotong continues to contribute to Beijing volleyball
Almost two years later, Beijing women’s position player Zeng Chunlei reappeared in the volleyball arena, now his identity has changed and he has become the new leader of the Beijing Auto Men’s Volleyball Team. Previously, another Beijing women’s volleyball player, Liu Xiaotong, had already served as the leader of the Beijing Auto Women’s Volleyball Team, leading the team to Zhangzhou, Fujian, to compete in the National Women’s Volleyball Championship. The two former national players have now changed their identities. The one thing is that they still contribute to Beijing volleyball.
Zeng Chunlei has gradually withdrawn from volleyball since getting married in 2020. After that, Zeng Chunlei went to live in Fujian, her husband’s hometown, and chose to retire in a low-key manner. In 2021, “Big Flower Bud” will be promoted to Bao Ma. In the increasingly busy parenting, Zeng Chunlei has not forgotten Beijing volleyball. A few days ago, Zeng Chunlei appeared in the training class of the BAIC Men’s Volleyball Team. She has been appointed the leader of the BAIC Men’s Volleyball team, together with her former teammate Liu Xiaotong, who is now the Football Team- BAIC Women’s volleyball Leader, will continue to contribute to Beijing volleyball.
According to Zeng Chunlei, after having a baby, her life is very fulfilling. Now that she is the leader of the Beijing Auto Men’s Volleyball team, she needs to start a new study. He said: “I can’t let go of volleyball. For me, what is constant is the complex of volleyball players. What is different is that it has become a race against myself. I need to further expand my work on a new track. Ability and potential, and strive to support the team and provide a good service.”
The team leader is like the keeper of the big house of a team. From organizing the life of the athletes to coordinating training, the team leader needs to be personally involved. In the identity change, Zeng Chunlei is full of expectations for herself. “I’m still a beginner myself, and I’m still trying to figure out how to work. I’m busy completing work every day, which is good, and I can still serve volleyball by virtue of this job.” Zeng Chunlei said.
Now the two golden flowers of the BAIC women’s volleyball team continue to fight for Beijing volleyball in new positions, which is also a blessing for Beijing volleyball. Under the leadership of Liu Xiaotong, Beijing Auto Women’s Volleyball Team has achieved a good record in the Women’s Volleyball Championship as a new army with 10 players from the 14-man roster. Zeng Chunlei works for Li Mu, the assistant head coach of the BAIC Men’s Volleyball Team. She said she was very lucky and believed she could learn more.
