China women's volleyball team 14 participated in the Olympic qualifiers, including Wang, Zhong Hui, Wu, Yuan, Gao Yi, Yang Hanyu, Gong Xiangyu, Zheng Yixin, Diao, Ding Xia, Wang and Ni Fanfei. Rio Olympic champion Ding Xia and rookie Wu did not participate in this year's World Women's Volleyball League, but they returned to the team this time.
In addition, another goal of China women's volleyball team this season is to win the women's volleyball championship at the Asian Games, which is also a home game, and Cai Bin is also full of confidence. Only 12 people signed up for the Asian Games. Cai Bin made a choice in advance and made a subtraction on the basis of Olympic qualifiers 14. Yang Hanyu, a 23-year-old assistant attacker, lost the Asian Games list, and Ni, a free man, missed it.
It is normal for Ni Fanfei to lose the election. When there are only 12 contestants, free people often bring only one, and Wang is obviously the most qualified candidate.
China women's volleyball team will face two important tasks. First, take part in Group A of the women's volleyball qualifier for the Paris Olympic Games in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province on September 16-24, and then take part in the Hangzhou Asian Games on September 30-June 17.
There are 8 teams in Group A of the Paris Olympic Women's Volleyball Qualifiers, namely China, Serbia, Dominica, Netherlands, Canada, Czech Republic, Mexico and Ukraine. The competition adopts a single round robin system, and the top two teams will directly qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
There are 13 teams participating in the women's volleyball competition of Hangzhou Asian Games. China, the host country, is in Group A and is in the same group as the Indian team and the North Korean team in the group stage. The list of China women's volleyball team participating in the Asian Games is basically the same as the list of participating in the Olympic qualifiers, except for the absence of Ni.
On the same day, the China Volleyball Association announced the list of 12 China men's volleyball players who participated in the Hangzhou Asian Games. They are:, Yu Yuantai, Wang Bin,, Peng Shikun, Wang, Jiang Chuan,,, Wang Hebin and Qu Zongshuai.
The men's volleyball competition of the Hangzhou Asian Games will be held from September 19 to September 26, with 19 teams participating. China will be in the same group as Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan in the group stage. After attending the Asian Games, the China Men's Volleyball Team will move to Xi to participate in the Olympic Men's Volleyball Qualifiers.
