men's volleyball

Chapter 144 A month later

"Under the training and occasional random thoughts, time seems to pass very quickly. It has been a month since I came back from Jinling..."

Room 311, dormitory for senior students of Pengli Sports School,
In Lin Mu's room.

Sitting at his desk, Lin Mu paused holding the pen, resting his chin with his left hand, thinking about the past days in his mind.

In front of him was the diary that he kept for a while, which contained his childhood memories.

It has been stored for more than a year, and he has never taken it out, and he has never written anything behind it.

I thought I would just leave it like this, and maybe one day in the future I will dig it out and recollect it.

However, during this period of time, he seemed to be feeling a lot, and he couldn't help but think a lot. Today, he finally took it out again. If he wanted to write something, he should share it with himself.

After pondering for a long time, Lin Mu finally continued to write.

"...It's very complicated, maybe also very weird, which caused a lot of turbulence to the originally plain mood. Strictly speaking, it should start from the moment when the last game of the divisional competition ends...

5 games, 4 wins and 1 loss. When practicing the next morning, the teammates couldn't wait to inquire about the news.Of course, it is mainly the result of the competition between Jincai Middle School and Jinling No. [-] Middle School.

Jincai Middle School won, and our Pengli team finally ranked second in the group.The teammates were a little bit regretful, but they didn't feel that they couldn't accept it. After one or two games, we were ready to play the game.

However, when Coach Lu assembled the team afterwards, he brought us a very unexpected news.That is, we don't need to fight anymore, pack up and prepare to go home..."

While writing, thinking of Lu Lin's weird smile at that time, Lin Mu smiled.

At the meeting that night, the leader of the organizer only announced one piece of news.Because some accidents happened to some teams in the Northern Division, as a result, there were some problems in the quota for the final promotion to the national U17 competition.

It is also because the Volleyball Association intends to make some adjustments to this U17 event. Therefore, the Youth Division of the Volleyball Association made an adjustment decision after discussing with the organizer and the organizers of each competition area.

The total number of participating teams in the U17 competition has been increased from the original 16 to 18. At the same time, the number of promotion places in the North Division has been reduced by one and a half from the original basis. The biggest change is that the two divisions in the South Division have a total of more places. 1 and a half.

In other words, each division of the Jinling Division and the Zhangzhou Division has added two places.It may seem a little unclear to say how many places.

To put it simply, the top two in Group AB of the Jinling Division will advance directly, and No.3 will play one more game, and the winner will advance. The competition in the Zhangzhou Division is roughly similar.

The No.3 losers of the two divisions will face off again.The winner will compete with a certain team from the Northern Division for the final spot.

"...The changes in the rules seem to be small, but in fact, the increase and decrease of the number of places has a great impact. Coach Lu talked about the situation at the meeting, and several teams reacted particularly strongly.

In fact, it should be strong. The team that was originally going to be eliminated in third place now has a chance, and the team that had no hope of winning the second round in the last round or the last round, and the team that gave up the game passively, was caught off guard by this news.

Especially for the teams that are currently ranked fourth in the two groups, it can be imagined that if they decide to leave early, they will definitely work harder. They will not be able to take the second place, but it is not impossible to fight for the third place, but the result is now like this, How can it make people calm.

There was a lot of fuss, and many disputes were finally invalid. The decision had already been made. It was said that it was a meeting to study, but in fact it was just a form of notification, which could not be changed.

The factual result of this is that Jinling No. [-] Middle School, which lost to Jincai, does not need to be eliminated. They will compete with the third Beihu Jiangcheng Sports School in another group for places.

In fact, the impact is not limited to these two teams. After learning from Coach Lu, I learned that in another competition area, the Zhangzhou Sports School team in Fujian Province, which should have been eliminated, also survived. I have to say that luck is very good !

From coach Lu's cryptic expression and few words, I can see some meaning, which also made me think more about the competition.What if the Nanhu team or the Pengli team ranked third in each group?

Hehe, you shouldn’t have any messy thoughts, anyway, our Pengli team has already occupied the position, and we don’t need to participate in the play-offs, so we should only think about the national competition in August..."

In August, I don't know how it will be...

After writing this, Lin Mu completely restrained the smile on his face, and pondered for a while.

After thinking about it, he continued to write: "...After returning to the sports school, all the rewards that should be given in the school were distributed within a few days. When I went there, I kept a low profile, and when I came back, I didn't lose the honor and treatment that I should have. In any case, it is also the first team in the team event of Pengli Sports School to enter the national competition, although the influence of this competition is very low...

After resting for a few days, most of the teammates did not go home. They often gather for activities in school, and the overall atmosphere is cheerful.

However, some time after starting to retrain, the atmosphere is changing.

Training is still training, and the intensity has improved compared to before, but it is just a little tiring, and it is not a big deal to gradually adapt.And if there is improvement, everyone can actually feel happy.

But since Coach Lu and Sister Feng often left half a month ago, the players began to feel something sensitively.

I haven't inquired about it, but I guessed it more or less. In fact, I was also wondering when the moment that all the players are unwilling to face will come.Even, in August, will the 8 of us still be able to appear in the QHD of Hebei Province at the same time...

Coach Lu left again the afternoon before yesterday, and I don't know..."

"Bang bang bang!"

"311 Is Lin Mu here?!"

There was a rough knock on the door, followed by an elderly male voice who was panting heavily. The door was unlocked, and it was pushed open.

Lin Mu put down his pen in response, closed the notebook, and hurriedly turned and walked to the door.

The one who opened the door was Uncle Zhang, the dormitory manager downstairs. Lin Mu was a little puzzled, "Uncle Zhang, who is this?"

"Hey, you are Lin Mu, it's good to be here."

Uncle Zhang knew Lin Mu well, and he had greeted him when he moved in, and he had spoken a few words with him every now and then.

But I don't know what the name is. He just received a call to find Lin Mu in room 311 and asked him to call him. He didn't feel happy.

But seeing this kid now, his attitude is somewhat better, this kid is usually very polite.Elderly people, after all, they will be more fond of polite children.

He took a few breaths and said, "A phone call came from the office building, saying that your coach asked you to come over!"

"Oh, I see, thank you, uncle, for taking you into trouble!"

The uncle waved his hand, "Can you not be tired? You have to climb the stairs, hurry up!"

After seeing off the uncle, Lin Mu returned to the table, put away the notebook and pen, locked them back in the cabinet, and then left to go out.

It should be that Coach Lu is back, but I don't know what happened tonight.

On the way, Lin Mu couldn't help thinking about it, and began to make some guesses.

A few minutes later, the office of the coach of the advanced volleyball class in the teaching and research building.

in the office,

Including Feng Jing, several volleyball team coaches were there.

Lu Lin was still the same, usually with a flat appearance, while Feng Jing sat quietly not far away.

The expressions of Coach Zhong and Coach Liu are much richer.

Sitting on the wooden chair, what Lin Mu saw was a mixture of joy, relief and complexity on Coach Zhong's face.

Beside Lin Mu, Han Chen was also there.

Han Chen was also sitting quietly beside Lin Mu, waiting for the coach to speak.

However, compared to Lin Mu's indifference, Han Chen's eyes flashed with fiery sparks from time to time.

At this time, Lu Lin spoke, "I called you here because I have something to tell you first, and I will know about it tomorrow, but I still think that I need to tell you in advance.

If you have time later, you can go back and communicate with your teammates about how to deal with it with a good attitude..."

Lu Lin spoke slowly. In fact, the news was neither unexpected nor unexpected, and Lin Mu felt a little restless in his heart.

Half an hour later, Lin Mu and Han Chen left, and the office was silent for a few minutes.

"Coach Lu, this is someone in the court who is easy to be an official, right? Ha ha!"

Just now, only Lu Lin spoke, and he and Xiao Liu were silent. Now, he opened his mouth with words as joking as possible.

"Mr. Zhong, it's too early to say whether it's going to go or not. At present, I am ordered by Lu's guidance to accompany me on the run. These two days it's our turn at Pengli Sports School, and it's not me who is in charge..."

Lu Lin smiled and explained: "Besides, our Pengli Sports School is also the top four in the Jinling Division, and we are going to participate in the national U17 team. As long as there is interest, we will not be missing, right?!

When Xiao Lin and Xiao Han were called just now, they were only asked to go back and have a breather with their teammates, and they were somewhat psychologically prepared in advance.Although the target is aimed at them, no matter what the situation is, both good and bad are possible. "

"Yeah, everything is possible, and it makes me quite contradictory and complicated!"

Coach Zhong listened to his words, and felt a little emotional: "The sports school is solid, and the students are flowing. I have worked as a sports school coach for decades, and I have seen it a lot. It's just...

It's just that every time someone comes and goes, I always feel a little sad.What's more, this time we really achieved some results, and what makes me even more gratified is that our achievements were not achieved by squeezing the children's potential in a short period of time.

It's just a pity that the competition will be held in August, and this is the first time that our sports school has a team playing in a national competition..."

As soon as Coach Zhong finished speaking, Lu Lin hurriedly explained, "Mr. Zhong, no matter what happens this time, our Pengli match in August must be played.

Moreover, in addition to the existing staff, there will be some staff to add when it is impossible to say. I will report to the principal tomorrow.Teacher Zhong, I may bother you to communicate with the school leaders..."

"this is nothing!"

Coach Zhong waved his hand, "As long as the name is still our Pengli Sports School, as long as you are still in charge, it doesn't matter. In fact, everyone knows that even the provincial level has gone to the national competitions. How can the province be so quiet? Sincerely, we all understand..."

"However, Xiao Lu, no matter what, that kid Xiao Lin is now the signature of our school team, so we can't let him go!"

"Mr. Zhong, that's not the case. The main frame cannot be changed. Moreover, I have gone out for a few runs recently. At this age, I have observed a lot and set some goals.

The goal is roughly in accordance with the current training philosophy of our sports school. It is impossible for me to squeeze out the potential of physical fitness.Even if I can't stand it, I can still ask Lu to guide me, I think this is worth it..."

"That's good, our Pengli Sports School..."

In the office, several coaches were chatting.

Outside, the evening breeze was blowing, and the noise of the active campus had not yet dissipated.

From time to time, there are groups of teenagers laughing and playing games in the playground on campus.

After Lin Mu and Han Chen came out of the office, they walked slowly towards the dormitory building on the path between the playground and the training ground.

Lin Mu remained silent. Beside him, although Han Chen also remained silent, some uncontrollable emotions were released in bursts.

It is true that I have to be restless, although there have been some signals some time ago, but when it really happened, how could it be possible to remain indifferent.

provincial team...

It is undeniable that at the moment when he heard that he was determined to be selected, Lin Mu also felt a fire in his heart, which made his whole body scald hot.

This was especially true for Han Chen, and, unlike Lin Mu, who was somewhat confident in himself, Han Chen was a little more excited and nervous.

Because of this, just now when the coach asked them to go back and gather their teammates to communicate with each other, Lin Mu delayed for the time being.

He took Han Chen to walk slowly around the campus, also to let Han Chen calm down as much as possible.

In fact, he also wanted to adjust himself.

Just before the evening activities hadn't started, he cat wrote some essays in the dormitory, didn't it just because of the existing and possible things that added a lot of ups and downs to his heart? !
It bears all the places from his childhood to his youth, the past and the present, the coaches he has coached, the teammates who have trained with him and played with him, and the faces of each one flash across his mind from time to time.

Perhaps in the near future, the current teammates will also be separated again, and there will be no intersection in the future. Although it is not sad, it is regrettable after all.

Lin Mu looked up at the dark blue night sky and his thoughts drifted further and further away.

"Brother Mu, it's getting late, why don't I run back first and go to each dormitory to call someone first!"

Beside him, Han Chen finally opened his mouth. Although his tone was calm, every word was always full of fiery emotions.

Lin Mu looked at Han Chen's hard-working appearance and smiled.

"...Old Han, try to adjust your emotions. Do you remember before the previous divisional game? Whether it is training, competition or the next thing, we must maintain a normal state of mind.

Of course, I know it's not easy, but I can't let my emotions affect the whole body. "

"I'll go back and talk to my teammates later. My meaning is still the same. In fact, we should analyze rationally first, and everything is foregone or not. While grasping the key points, we need to make our preparations for the key points."

Han Chen nodded quickly, quietly waiting for Lin Mu's next words.

Han Chen couldn't say he admired Lin Mu, but he definitely respected and respected him, because he was the one who watched Lin Mu rise step by step from the small transparent string at the end of the crane.

Not only technology and growth, but what he believes in is Lin Mu's analysis and understanding of things. Often times, these understandings are very important.It's something he's always wanted to learn, too.

"From a single point of view of technology and physical fitness, we have no advantages, at least at the provincial level. Therefore, what we need to show others is not how outstanding individuals are, but what we should have is that we can use individuals to give to the team. what to bring.

Coach Lu has always taught us, isn't that exactly the case? "

"Oh!"

Han Chen subconsciously groaned thoughtfully.

"Okay, go back and call them first, go to our dormitory in a while, let's talk in detail later."

"it is good!"

Han Chen said yes, and hurried to the dormitory building.

Lin Mu looked at the back who was running away quickly, and smiled lightly. After the smile, his complexion recovered.

I really don't know how it will end up! ?

Lin Mu shook his head, stopped thinking about it for the time being, and quickened his pace a little towards the dormitory building.
