Li Xing said that in the end, there are no regrets, foreign athletes, even players from the national team, usually train from the club by themselves.." If you want to be like Yao Aijun, it is almost impossible to have sufficient training conditions.

It costs money to attend training classes, it costs money to borrow venues, and it costs money to hire coaches...... In order to develop a hobby, he had to work part-time to cover these training expenses.

Yao Aijun also felt sorry for him when he heard this, although there are various defects in the domestic system, how can the centralized athlete training system not be envied by foreign athletes? Worry-free training, the cost of food and housing is all-inclusive by the state, and there are even allowances and subsidies, etc., it can be said that under the domestic athlete system, athletes are targeted professional training.

However, a few people remember that the first Olympic Charter clearly stated the amateurism of the Olympic Games!

In fact, it wasn't until the 1992 Olympics that FIBA allowed professional players from the NBA to participate in the Olympics for the first time.

"Then how do you usually get busy? Even if sociology is relatively free of time, it still makes the schedule very full, right? ”

Regarding Yao Aijun's question, Li Xing quickly sent a reply.

Everyone who wants to have a hobby and does a good job in the hobby is bound to invest time. It's not unacceptable to keep yourself busy. In fact, there are many people among his college alumni who are busy with their careers and hobbies, and they also keep themselves busy, but they are busy and methodical, not too distracted from their areas of focus.

For example, Li Xing himself loves diving, so the sociological research group will design a research model for sports groups, and the part-time job he finds will be in the direction of diving teaching...... And so on, and don't put yourself in a hurry.

After Yao Aijun received the email, he was greatly impressed. In fact, everyone will have a plan for their own life, so as to adjust the best plan.

The so-called poor will change, change will be successful, and the general will be long.

Here, "poor" is not poverty, but exhaustion. When the road gets narrower and narrower, and when it comes to the end, people will instinctively think about change, so as to make themselves accessible.

Because of last year's ban, Yao Aijun has plenty of time to study. The results in the first semester were very good, and the competition throughout this year has come and gone in a hurry, which has not affected my studies too much. Yao Aijun asked the teacher of the grade level academic affairs department for leave in the name of the diving team, and by the way, he applied for some subjects to be completed by self-study.

From the end of February to the middle of March, Yao Aijun went through all the main subjects in the first half of the year. By the time the station series was over, he had already completed one "Speech Therapy", one "Rehabilitation Assessment", and one "Traditional Rehabilitation" paper; Then I carried the thick textbooks and notes of "Internal Medicine" in my bag and got on the plane to the European branch competition.

The FINA World Diving Series is held at no less than three stops and no more than four stops per session. The top eight players in the singles event were the top eight players in the previous year's World Championships, and the pairs were the top six players in the previous year's World Championships. If there is a non-top 6 and 8 qualification in the host country, one additional person can be added using the "direct invitation" rule. Therefore, the number of participants in this event is not very large every year. There are only 8~9 people in the single event and 6~7 groups in the double event.

Yao Aijun, who made his debut in the series, ranked fifth at home in China, which can be regarded as the bottom.

However, this is not a bad result. First of all, the scope of the top eight in the World Championships is a group of opponents with great competitive pressure. Secondly, playing with world famous players, the referee has more or less psychological effects. In the first competition, this ranking cannot be counted.

On the second day of the domestic competition, the team repaired in situ and flew to Heathrow International Airport in the United Kingdom three days later.

In the FINA series, the host country of the sub-tournament will only provide room and board for one team leader/coach from the other host country in addition to the participating athletes. Therefore, Yao Aijun, Shen Duo, who also competed in the men's singles 10-meter platform, and players in other events, were led by the coach of the national team to go out to compete. This time, it is still the head coach Zhang Changqing who leads the team.

From Heathrow International Airport to Sheffield, the whole journey took nearly 2O hours, plus customs and special car procedures, Yao Aijun and his entourage, when they arrived at the Sheffield venue, it was already a full day later.

Britain is a big diving country with an excellent sports tradition, and the United Kingdom says that most of the sports competitions in the United Kingdom are very good, and the diving program has been absorbing China's concentrated training methods in the past two years, and it has grown from the level of athletes.

There are not a few British players in this series, but as far as the men's singles 10-meter platform is concerned, only one player has entered, and it is the famous Thomas who has won the world championship. This Thomas athlete won the World Championships the year before last, and also won the championship in the Grand Prix race, and has been ranked very high by FINA over the years. In the UK, it is also a very popular diver.

As soon as Yao Aijun and the others arrived at the venue, they felt the love of the local people for Thomas, and as a special competition, there were fans who followed them all the way to the host city to chase stars.

In our country, there are many fans of chasing singers and movie star concerts, but chasing sports star series, that is almost yes.

With a slight adjustment, it will be followed by the two-day round of the UK leg in eight events.

Day 1:

In the morning, the semi-finals of the men's singles 3-meter board and the women's singles 10-meter platform were held, and the semi-finals were divided into two aB matches, for a total of four matches.

Noon is the opening ceremony.

After the simple opening ceremony, in the afternoon, the semi-finals of the men's singles 3-meter board and women's singles 10-meter platform in the morning entered the finals of the two individual events. and the finals of the men's doubles 10m platform and the women's doubles 3m springboard. Again, a total of four.

Day 2:

In the morning, the semi-finals of the women's singles 3m springboard and men's singles 10m platform were held, with a total of four matches.

In the afternoon, it was the final of the women's singles 3-meter board and men's singles 10-meter platform; and the men's doubles 3m springboard and women's doubles 10m platform finals, also with a total of four.

To put it simply, only the single event has a semi-final, and the double event does not have a semi-final because there are 6~7 groups in the list of qualified participants.

Yao Aijun's schedule is very good, and the schedule is on the second day, which is equivalent to one more day of repair time than his teammates in the single three-meter board and the double 10-meter platform.

"How does it feel? Is it uncomfortable? After Shen Duo put down his luggage, he came to his room and asked.

Since Yao Aijun "left" from the national team, he said that he was borrowing training at the beginning, and then the registered units were changed. The "former teammates" who are also in the national team, except for a few of them who have always gotten along well, will feel a little delicate when they get along.

This time I came with the team, and only Yao Aijun was not a "teammate" of the national team, so he seemed a little unsociable. Zhang Changqingli, but it was inconvenient to say more, so he had to let Yao Aijun's "former captain" Shen Duo come out.

Yao Aijun smiled: "There's nothing unaccustomed, I can't sleep with a little excitement." ”

He used to play a lot, so he knew that this situation was caused by jet lag. However, at this time, the body has not experienced it, and it is not suitable for a while.

Shen Duo nodded: "Jet lag, it's okay to rest for one night." It just so happens that your project is on the second day, so it's good to have a good rest. ”

"Hmm."

Shen Duo saw that Yao Aijun didn't mean to speak, he was a little cold, and scratched his head in embarrassment: "There are them, don't care too much." Although the registration is no longer in the team, everyone comes out to compete on behalf of our swimming association. You know? Don't be affected, huh? ”

Yao Aijun grinned back with a big smile: "Got it!" Captain! Don't worry, I'll be fine! Maybe I'll be a better dancer than you! ”

Seeing him like this, Shen Duo knew that there was nothing wrong, so he pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "Boy, you wait." ”

Yao Aijun is really fine, since he has chosen his own path, he should not be confused.

Whether it's in the national team, in the QH swimming team, or maybe even in the future, I will follow another path for the club, but these are just different paths.

The so-called gentlemen are harmonious but different. Even if you are in the same direction, you still have to stick to yourself! (To be continued.)
