Volleyball Youth

Chapter 710 Professional Group and Amateur Group

"President Wu, what can we do to help you?" Director Mo and Teacher Yang glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts. They are just the coaches of the amateur volleyball team, and they are the vice president of the National Volleyball Association. What could it matter?

"In fact, it is like this. For some time ago, the level of the national competition has not improved much. Although the strength of strong teams such as Qingyang women's volleyball team and Bucheon women's volleyball team will increase slightly every year, the overall level has not changed much. It has been maintained to a certain extent, and the appearance of the two teams in the past two years has made the national competition more attractive, and at the same time, the level has also been greatly improved." President Wu did not immediately express his needs, but Let me first talk about the situation of the national competition in recent years.

"En." Mo Dao has only been coaching at the Beifeng Women's Volleyball Team for the past two years. Although he has not been there for a long time, Mo Dao has done a lot of work. She still has a little understanding of the national competition. It is also because the women's volleyball team of the Medical University participated in the national competition in the past two years that I began to understand.

"Actually, there was a period of time before when the level of the national competition continued to improve. At that time, it was our golden period. We all thought that the level would continue to improve during that time. However, due to some reasons, the teams stagnated. , if it wasn't for your appearance, I think the level might have been maintained at this level in recent years." President Wu said with emotion, and the others sighed helplessly after hearing it. Obviously, this There is a big secret in it.

"President Wu, is it convenient to tell us the reason for this?" Director Mo asked politely.

"Of course you can. You are now an important representative team in the national competition. Naturally, you should know something about it." President Wu said without hesitation: "Eight years ago, I started to take over the organization and holding of the national competition. I probably It took two years to raise the level of the national competition to a very high level. At that time, the strength of each team was very good. Although the level may not be able to reach the level of the two teams, but when I first took over the national competition The amateur competition is very average, and I think that at that time, the momentum is in full swing, and it will definitely reach a higher level in a short time!"

Listening to Chairman Wu's description, Sun Jiafei and the others could imagine how strong the league was at that time, and how bright the prospects were. However, they also had doubts, why did they develop so well and suddenly stagnated?
"It is precisely because we have developed well that we have been targeted by the professional league over there!" President Wu explained as if seeing everyone's doubts.

"The other side of the professional group is in charge of another vice president of the association." After President Wu finished speaking, the person next to him followed suit.

"Professional group? Do you mean sports colleges?" Teacher Yang asked.

"Well, not only sports schools, but also many schools will specially recruit professional-level athletes. If their strength reaches a certain level, they will be eligible to participate in professional competitions." Others explained.

"Oh, so that's the case, what kind of conditions are needed?" Teacher Yang asked curiously.

Hearing Teacher Yang's question, everyone fell silent suddenly, as if they didn't want to answer his question.

Seeing that no one spoke, Teacher Yang and Sun Jiafei were very puzzled. Is there something unspeakable?
At this moment, President Wu waved his hand and said: "It's okay, you should know that the condition is to reach the top two in the amateur group of the national competition!"

Now, everyone finally understands why President Wu called the two teams together today, it should be for this reason.

"We didn't hear about this last year, and the Qingyang women's volleyball team and Fuchuan women's volleyball team don't seem to know about it either?" Director Mo thought for a while and asked suspiciously.

What Director Mo said made Teacher Yang and Sun Jiafei once again confused. The Beifeng women's volleyball team won the championship last year. How could they not know about it?Moreover, Qingyang women's volleyball team and Bucheon women's volleyball team have both scored in the top two. Logically speaking, they should all be qualified to know!

With such doubts, they turned their attention to Chairman Wu.

"That's because our previous level has not reached other people's standards." President Wu said helplessly.

"Didn't meet the standard?" Sun Jiafei and the others became more and more confused the more they heard it. What does it mean that they didn't meet the standard?Doesn't it mean that the top two are eligible to enter the professional group to participate in the competition?
"It's like this. After Chairman Wu took over, the strength of the amateur team has improved by leaps and bounds. At that time, many teams were developing well. Chairman Wu was praised by the association. The vice-chairman of the professional team saw it. Very angry, he proposed to increase the number of teams in professional competitions, but there are only so many professional colleges, and there are a lot of them all together, so they came up with the idea of ​​amateur group." Someone stood up and explained .

"It's a beautiful name, it's for the development of volleyball, but it's actually trying to take away our good team, so that we can't develop!" Another person said angrily.

"In the end, the association listened to their opinions. At the same time, they also solicited the opinions of major colleges and universities, and offered good conditions. If there is an opportunity, who would not want to play in a higher level league!" Another person said helplessly. He sighed and said.

"At that time, the several teams we focused on were all selected. Moreover, there was a rule set at that time that there would be relegation every year. The top two in the amateur group could enter the professional group, while the last two in the professional group It is said that the survival of the fittest will be the survival of the fittest, but in fact, the strength of our amateur group will only get weaker and weaker.” When talking about this matter, people in the association became helpless and angry .

"Then why haven't I heard of any teams that have been relegated in the past few years?" Mo Dao and the others probably understood what it meant, but they didn't understand that there were no teams relegated or relegated in the past two years!
"Because people look down on us!" Someone said with a sour face.

"Can't you see?"

"It's like this. The professional group picked away all the good teams from our side, and the remaining teams are naturally weaker. After these years of development, their strength has gradually improved. But Even so, their worst team is stronger than our strongest team!" President Wu explained patiently: "Actually, since we established this rule, we have fought for it, because if we can The top two are promoted to the professional group, and the last two are relegated to our amateur group. This way, we can promote each other, and the strength of both sides can be improved. However, because our strength is too weak, the other party says that they have the right not to choose relegation. , unless it is when you meet a strong team."

Speaking of this, President Wu was somewhat unable to control his emotions. After seeing it, the others quickly took over the conversation and said: "For this reason, our president ran to argue with the other party, and even reported it to the volleyball association. In the end, the decision of the volleyball association is to take a step back, the professional group can choose to relegation, but the amateur team can also have the right to refuse, of course, if the team wants to choose to be promoted, it is also possible."

"What's this called taking a step back? It's obviously biased towards the other side! How can a team not want to enter a higher level of competition!" One person said very angrily.

As soon as he finished speaking, the people next to him quickly yelled at him, signaling him not to talk nonsense, and Sun Jiafei noticed these actions, because Sun Jiafei had already guessed something.

"So, what did President Wu mean by calling us here today?" Director Mo seemed to have guessed something, and asked straight to the point.

Seeing Director Mo being so straightforward, Chairman Wu stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "Stay here!"

"Why?" Director Mo asked directly.

Although President Wu is a member of the Volleyball Association, Dao Mo used to be a professional athlete and coach of a professional team, so she doesn't care about President Wu's identity.

"We can offer generous conditions to bring the Beifeng women's volleyball team to a higher level." President Wu said without hesitation.

"Then if you go to the professional group, wouldn't you improve faster?" Director Mo thought for a while and said.

"Then you are wrong, Director Mo, you have played in professional competitions, and you know better than us how fierce the competition there is. I am not saying that with the current strength of the Beifeng women's volleyball team, going to the professional group is at best cannon fodder Existence, under that kind of pressure, it is difficult for you to develop!" Someone said with a wry smile.

Obviously, before this, they had already discussed it.

After President Wu finished speaking, Director Mo fell silent. Of course she knew the situation in the professional team. Now there is only one Chen Yun in their team who came out of the professional team, and almost all the team members there It's from a professional team!

Seeing Director Mo not talking, Teacher Yang thought for a while and asked, "President Wu, didn't you say that the professional group has not come to the amateur group to ask for relegation or relegation in the past two years? You also did not ask Beifeng women's volleyball team last year." Why did they find us this year?"

"Because your strength is enough for them to take it seriously!" President Wu said seriously.

"That is to say, this year the professional group will definitely find our two teams and ask if we want to be promoted to their professional group level, right?" Teacher Yang reconfirmed.

"Well, yes." President Wu nodded and said.

"Then why do you want us to stay so much?" Teacher Yang continued to ask.

"Your stay is of great help to us, because only the strong teams are willing to stay, which can stimulate the amateur teams to move forward. You can also see that the Bucheon Women's Volleyball Team and the Qingyang Women's Volleyball Team have grown very fast this year. , because of your appearance." President Wu said without any concealment.

"Then what conditions can you give us?" Director Mo asked bluntly after Chairman Wu finished speaking.
