In the Paris Olympic cycle, the Chinese women's volleyball team failed to accomplish the task of rejuvenation. The team's overall performance was unsatisfactory, and in three years, they failed to win a world championship title. The gap between them and the world-class strong teams is growing larger. The coaching ability of head coach Cai Bin has been widely criticized. Additionally, the team suffers from a lack of talent, poor echelon construction, and severe aging among the players. Therefore, in the new cycle, the Chinese women's volleyball team will learn from the bitter lessons of the Paris Olympics and undergo comprehensive reforms. In fact, after the Paris Olympics, the restructuring of the Chinese women's volleyball team had already begun. Many assistant coaches from the coaching staff were assigned to local teams for coaching practice. Although there were high calls for head coach Cai Bin to step down, Cai Bin did not resign voluntarily, and the Volleyball Association did not ask him to do so. Therefore, it is likely that Cai Bin will continue to serve in the new cycle. However, what deserves the attention of fans is that the whereabouts of Lai Yawen, the director of the Volleyball Management Center, remains a mystery. After the Paris Olympics, Lai Yawen rarely appeared in public, leading many fans to speculate that she might be involved in the Li Quanqiang incident, although this is all just speculation. Lai Yawen is a veteran of the Chinese women's volleyball team. As a player, she was a mainstay of the national team and made contributions. After retiring,…

Translation of the article content into English: Since entering the Los Angeles Olympic cycle, the entire world volleyball arena has undergone a complete transformation. Many familiar faces have gradually left the stage, and new forces are quietly rising. Especially for the Chinese women's volleyball team, after the baptism of the Paris cycle, some veterans who once brought glory to the country will also bid farewell to the volleyball court. As the old saying goes, "The camp is made of iron, but the soldiers flow like water," the replacement of athletes is a normal occurrence. This is also the charm of competitive sports; there is always fresh blood entering, and heroes writing new chapters. The changes in the Chinese women's volleyball team are not just limited to the change of players; the adjustment of the coaching staff is equally noteworthy. The Volleyball Association has made some adjustments to the coaching staff, with Yuan Lingxi, Bao Zhuang, and Li Yanlong being transferred to local teams. Except for the head coach position, almost all other assistant coach positions have been reorganized. This also makes people wonder if Cai Bin's position as head coach is stable. With the changing landscape of the world volleyball arena, whether Cai Bin can continue to lead the Chinese women's volleyball team into battle has become a hot topic of discussion. Currently, among the top five women's volleyball teams in the world, except for the Chinese team, the coaches of the other teams have already decided on their new head coaches: the coaches of the United States and Serbia…

In the second round of the Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League playoffs, the reigning champions Tianjin Volleyball Team faced off against the Beijing Volleyball Team. In the first round, Tianjin easily defeated Liaoning, with Chen Boya emerging as the team's standout player. The return of Yao Di has greatly improved the team's morale and confidence, with Chen Boya being a testament to this. On the other hand, Beijing suffered a major setback after being dramatically reversed by Shandong in the first round, significantly impacting their morale. Wang Yunlu, who had returned to Beijing for the holidays, has since gone back to Russia. Additionally, the team's third foreign player was unable to join due to personal issues, meaning Beijing was not at full strength and could only aim to challenge Tianjin. Ultimately, Tianjin swept Beijing 3-0, securing two consecutive victories in the playoffs. In the first set, Beijing's foreign player Begic served first, with both Li Yingying and Fetisova of Tianjin having their attacks blocked. Jin Ye scored the first point with a tip-out, quickly giving Beijing a 3-1 lead. Tianjin then took the lead 4-3 through Li Yingying's attacks and blocks, with both teams displaying a similar style of play, focusing on multiple attacking points. Yao Di intentionally provided more opportunities for Chen Boya, and Tianjin led 12-9, prompting Beijing to call their first timeout. Jin Ye's attacking error allowed Tianjin to extend their lead, with Wang Mengjie making an impressive backcourt save to reduce the gap to two points. Chen Boya's serving round caused Beijing to stall, trailing 11-17,…
