From Rong Guotuan, Zhou Lanshun, to Jiang Jialiang, blocking had been a major weapon in winning world championships. We could not afford to be weak in blocking just because we are looping on our backhand. For a technique as important as this one, we have to make sure that we provide enough practice in our training, and our coaches have to raise the requirements. After this meeting, our coaches have to figure out how to improve this technique. We have room for improvement here, and we need to improve before the coming Worlds.
Team management is a very important issue.
In today's society, we have to increase the scope of our management. Besides the training in Beijing and in our training center, we have to establish the systems for our players to compete in leagues and challenge matches. Our coaches should accompany the players, to observe and to understand how they perform in matches. In the past we have 3 months of winter training and 2 months of summer training, and that guaranteed sufficient training time for the players. Now we have to fit the training into the busy schedules.
