2 1 year later, this Tianjin girl who grew up listening to the story of five consecutive women's volleyball championships finally stepped into the door of her dream national women's volleyball team.
In the early 1980s, there were many international volleyball teams, and any team from the United States, Cuba, Japan, the Soviet Union and Peru could win the championship.
The more bitter the conditions, the stronger the will; The stronger the opponent, the stronger the belief. The girls firmly believe in "winning glory for the country", training hard and working hard. Mary Yang, a retired senior volleyball reporter, witnessed the whole process of the development of China women's volleyball team. "In order to beat their opponents, the athletes of that era must have suffered more than others could eat."
The women's volleyball training base built in just 28 days bears the glory and dreams of the old women's volleyball team. The years in the bamboo shed left an unforgettable memory for Zhang. She and her sisters crawled on the rough floor and practiced tumbling hundreds of times a day. The wooden thorn on the floor penetrated into the clothes and the meat. After the training, everyone became a hedgehog. You can only drink boiled water during training, and the food can ensure that you are full. "If you eat well, you can't talk about it." They practice simple and boring technical moves such as serving and blocking for hundreds of times almost every day, and never complain about the shoulder and waist injuries caused by training competitions. During the preparation period, I often practice four times a day, eight or nine hours a day, and half a day on Sunday. Girls have to challenge the limits of their bodies with boring and heavy training every day.
Difficulties and hardships, Yucheng. 198 1 year 1 month 65438+6 years, China women's volleyball team won the world championship with the courage of winning the Asian championship, even surpassing the strong enemies such as the United States, with an unbeaten record of seven games. Since then, China women's volleyball team has created an era of its own-five consecutive championships. Armed with the spirit of women's volleyball, the girls of China women's volleyball team wrote a blank in the championship history for their opponents and a legend for themselves.
The slogan "Unite to revitalize China" was born in 198 1. On March 20th of that year, after losing two games in a row, China beat the powerful South Korean team 3-2 in a row and was qualified to represent Asia in the World Cup. Late that night, nearly 4,000 students from Peking University excitedly ran out of the dormitory and shouted the loud slogan of "Unite to revitalize China". Subsequently, this slogan became the oath and commitment of the vast number of young people to the motherland, and was even louder because of the "five consecutive championships" of China women's volleyball team. ( )
Five consecutive championships have become a monument of China Women's Volleyball Team, and the spirit of forging the great cause of "five consecutive championships" is far more inspiring to Chinese people than the champion itself. The spirit of women's volleyball is increasingly regarded as the benchmark and motto of individual struggle by athletes in various competitions, and has become an inspirational benchmark for youth education and the pursuit of Excellence in various industries. As a member of the excellent group of China women's volleyball team, Lang Ping, Zhang, Zhang and other veteran women's volleyball players still inherit the spirit of women's volleyball in different fields.
Zhang, a Sichuan girl who was pregnant that year and continued to lead the team in training, finally won five consecutive championships. Now, in the position of Party Secretary of the Volleyball Center of the State Sports General Administration, she is planning the growth and rise of the China women's volleyball team, and the spirit of unity, cooperation and hard work is in the same strain.
On August 6th, 2002, Lang Ping, the first Asian player elected to the Volleyball Hall of Fame, became a member of Guangdong Evergrande Women's Volleyball Club. She said that the motivation for her third comeback came from her love for the motherland and volleyball.
June 65438+10/October 65438+April 2006, the dream of "brokeback general" Chen Zhaodi came true, and the Central Military Commission officially approved her promotion to the rank of major general. "If winning the championship is the persistent pursuit of athletes and the general is the glorious dream of soldiers, then now my dream has really come true." However, she said that for individuals, this is both an encouragement and a spur.
The old women's volleyball spirit also inspires younger women's volleyball girls. The average age of newly formed women's volleyball players in China is only 2 1. At the age of 8, 18 players were born after winning the women's volleyball championship five times in a row, but this does not affect them to become successors of the women's volleyball spirit. From 200 1, during the closed training in the first year of each Olympic cycle, China women's volleyball team will solemnly swear under the five-star red flag on the morning of the first training day.
"The spirit of women's volleyball is the source of strength for our young China women's volleyball team to keep forging ahead. As a member of the China Women's Volleyball Team, this is both a great honor and an absolute challenge. " Li Juan, a little girl awakened by the cheers of "Long live China", is already the eldest sister in the team. "The fighting spirit of the old women's volleyball team is our young people's precious spiritual wealth. We will certainly be the successor of the spirit of women's volleyball and cherish every opportunity to win glory for our country. "
