Hohhot, February 19 (Xinhua) -- Zhu Ting, who plays for the Italian Scandicci club, said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency on the evening of the 18th that she will work hard to adjust her physical and technical condition and prepare to return to the Chinese women's volleyball national team.
The Chinese Volleyball Association announced the latest 22-member training list of the Chinese women's volleyball team on the 18th, and the 29-year-old Rio Olympic champion Zhu Ting is not among them. She told reporters that the team's games in February were intensive, and she felt a little tired. The Italian league has a relatively close level of teams and a high level of intensity. As I get older, my body is not recovering as fast as it used to. Recently, I have had some pain in my lower back, and I need to accept *** after the game
Zhu Ting said that as a player, it is her responsibility to fight for the country, and it has always been her wish. At the same time, she also hopes that when she returns to the national team, she can devote herself to training and competitions in the best condition, effectively enhance the team's combat effectiveness and cohesion, and bring substantial contributions and help to the national team. Once she returns to the national team, she is reluctant to drag her feet in training, drop the chain, or affect the team. In the coming period, she will play well for the club and at the same time actively adjust her physical and technical condition to try to prepare for her return to the national team.
Zhu Ting is the main player of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the Rio Olympics and Tokyo Olympics cycles, and has made outstanding contributions to the team's two World Cup championships and the gold medal in the Rio Olympics. (ENDS).
