Chapter 173: Gathering, Youth Selection
Qingxue, inside the coach's office
"Kanto region, youth tryouts?" In the office, a soft female voice came from it, and Eri listened to Coach Ryuzaki repeat the words that had just come out of his ear.
"Yes"
Coach Ryuzaki raised his head and looked at the teenagers who were training on the court, and then looked at the girl in front of him and spoke.
"We Qingxue won the championship of the Kanto Contest this time, so this time we invite all members to participate!"
Hearing this, Ei raised her eyebrows, "That's a good thing!" But after a moment of thought, she felt that something was wrong.
"But I'm not the main candidate for Qingxue, so I shouldn't be able to participate, right?"
When the words fell, Ei shrugged his shoulders and simply raised his hand to pick up the materials on Coach Ryuzaki's desk and sorted them out.
She knows very well that she is only the manager of the Youth Tennis Department, where is she qualified to follow everyone to the training camp.
But in the next second, Coach Ryuzaki's words made the movements in her hands stiffen.
"No, you can go, and you can participate as the leader of the youth team!"
Ei stopped the movement in his hand for a while, and looked at Coach Ryuzaki, who was staring at him at this time, with a puzzled expression, and was puzzled.
"Why?"
"Speaking of this..."Coach Ryuzaki paused, looking at the chestnut curly-haired girl in front of him with a confused face and a slight smile
"Of course it was the idea of a few of our coaches"
Because Eiko is different from the rest of the team, she has a layer of obstacles that she can't overcome, and if she can make a change through this one, that would be the best outcome.
"Coach?" Eiko's eyes narrowed, and her eyes stared at Coach Ryuzaki's face in suspicion.
"Shouldn't it be the first stroke of Coach God and Coach Hanamura?"
As for the reason why she blurted out the names of these two people when she heard the word coach, it can probably be said that first, she knows Coach God's personality very well, and that guy will bring her with her whenever there is a game, whether as a player or a spectator, which is undoubtedly the greatest pleasure of Coach God in recent years, and secondly, she doesn't believe that a woman who pursues perfection like Coach Hanamura will not participate in this kind of occasion.
Eri looked at Coach Ryuzaki, whose pupils were slightly locked at this time, and Coach Ryuzaki, whose face was full of incredulity, was even more determined.
"It looks like it's him!"
Coach Ryuzaki was a little helpless about this, and since the girl guessed that she didn't play any dumb riddles anymore, she had to nod, but suddenly she seemed to think of something, and she said to Xiang Ei.
"It seems that the organizers of this friendly match also strongly require the two teams to add a team leader."
"Huh?"
Organizers?
Eiko listened to Coach Ryuzaki's words and said something strange.
Seeing the girl's confused face, Coach Ryuzaki explained again.
"In previous years, there would be a Japan-US Friendship Challenge, so we decided to wait until the national tournament was over to select the best players from all over the country to form a team, but this year because of the advance of the organizers, we can only choose in the Kanto region, and this rule seems to have been added not long ago!"
So after thinking about it, Coach Ryuzaki couldn't understand why the organizers took a lot of trouble to make such a move this time.
After hearing the specific explanation, Eraci also expressed her understanding, after all, this is not something she can control, since the coaches are so confident in her, they have to do their best to help everyone with what they have learned all their lives.
"Alright then!" Eiko nodded, accepting the one-sided explanation.
Following
Inside the training camp
"Huh? A few of you turned out to be here, too. Eri, who arrived at the youth training camp ahead of schedule, also happened to see the logistics five-person group standing on the top of the stairs wearing volunteer uniforms, as well as Tachibana and Tantaichi from Yamabuki Middle School.
"Yes, Erachu-chan... We're here to volunteer! Leader, Ryuzaki Sakurano agreed.
Daigo Koko blinked
"Eh, why are you dressed differently than us? Aren't you here to volunteer? Horio's words suddenly interspersed from the side, and for a moment everyone present turned their eyes to the girl, only to see that she had just tied up her long maroon hair at this time, wearing a red and black sports jacket with a series of sports tops like it, and a pure white pleated skirt under her body looked particularly energetic.
"yes... Fox, why are you dressed differently than we do? Xiao Xing also opened her mouth and wondered, because the clothes they wore as volunteers were green and white casual clothes for men, while the girls were fans and white, which was a world of difference compared to the outfit worn by Ei Tanuki.
Eiko chuckled and shook the fingers of her right hand at them to play a dumb riddle.
"You'll find out later!"
......
The meeting site is in front of the main building, with a large concrete floor and also against the parking lot.
Team members from each school lined up in the field in front of the building.
The volunteers stood on a platform on the stairs, while the assistant coaches stood at the front, followed by Coach Ryuzaki and Coach Hanamura, followed by Coach Shin with a serious and cold expression.
As for the civet, he was quietly hiding behind a few people, checking the situation off the field.
Her eyes glanced at the teenagers who were wearing uniforms of the same specifications and colors as herself, and couldn't help but sigh a little.
The crowd was really coming, and almost all the teams and players who had a prominent performance in the Kanto Tournament were present.
Needless to say, all the members of Qingxue are here, but Ryoma doesn't seem to have any advantage in height among them...
As for Josei Shonan, it seems that they sent their captain Omoto, as well as Wakato Hiroshi and the three people of Kamijo who fought against Ryoma.
Fudo Peak sent Ibu and Kamio, but Tachibana Yoshihei didn't choose to come, probably because he was afraid of a foot injury!
Rokkaku Middle School is Tenne, who loves to tell bad jokes, Saeki, the vice-captain, and Ryo Kisarazu, who wears a hat, and it's strange that their first-year captain Kentaro Aoi didn't come.
Needless to say, Yamabuki Middle School must have sent this guy Chigoku, and if Akutsu was still on the team, he would probably be sent too!
Saint Rudolph sent the same thing, the moon and Kisarazu Jun. But why does Guanyue keep rolling up the bangs on his head all the time?
The Ice Emperor is almost all there, but Akutagawa doesn't seem to have come, so he probably fell asleep somewhere!
As the runner-up team, Lihai Da only came to three people, Kirihara, Sanada and Yanagi Renji, Brother Marui They didn't come to participate in this event, I think it's convenient to take care of Brother Beauty!
Looking at this situation, Ei was a little surprised, but it was just a thought.
The mobilization meeting began
"In this training camp, I, Ryuzaki, am in charge of serving as the head coach." Coach Ryuzaki stood in the middle of the stage with his hands in front of his chest and spoke, "Please advise." ”
"Yes!"
Everyone in the audience replied in unison.
"I think everyone already knows that this year, it was temporarily decided to hold the Japan-U.S. Goodwill Youth Selection Tennis Tournament." Coach Ryuzaki paused, his eyes turned to everyone's faces, and then continued, "The opponent is the youth high school selection team on the West Coast of the United States. ”
"It stands to reason that we should wait for the end of the national competition to select representatives from all over the country to compete, but at the request of the United States, we will compete during this period, so we unanimously decided to select the strongest team from among the main players from various schools in Kanto through this training camp!"
Coach Ryuzaki's words fell, and the teenagers' faces were very excited.
The words of the next second surprised them.
"There is also a team leader this time, so now we welcome Uesugi Eiko!"
Ei listened to Coach Ryuzaki's words, and his empty brain began to return, and his light figure burst out from behind several coaches, and then beckoned to everyone.
"Hello, I'm sure I don't need to introduce myself, everyone is very familiar with me!" Ei Fox playfully stuck out her tongue, and her eyes looked at Ryoma Yanran, who was in the crowd because of her appearance, and smiled, "Then please advise me in the next few days!" ”
As soon as the girl's words were finished, Coach Huacun stepped forward and supported his waist with one hand, full of charm.
"Then I'll explain the specific training content now!"
"The 28 people who participated in the training this time will be divided into three groups, and in the future, they will be trained in small groups!"
Ei Fox pursed her lips, listening to this twisted number, her heart was really itchy, why don't you gather thirty people to divide it!
"The coaches of each group are Coach Ryuzaki, Coach God and me, mainly for practice games, complete the arrangements of the coaches of each group, remind that no one knows when they will compete with whom, except for themselves, everyone must be regarded as opponents, and they will wind up to participate in this training camp, of course, the coaches who lead the team are the three of us!"
As he spoke, Coach Hanamura lifted the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his hand, and the gaze under the lenses swept straight at the girl's body, making her stiff.
After hearing Coach Huacun's words, Ei Raccoon was almost stunned, and Mu Ne froze in place, she didn't know that there was such a rule, why did she pick this troubled water!
"Yes!" Everyone responded to Coach Hanamura's words.
After informing them of the relevant matters, the teenagers also disbanded one after another, and walked to the poster board in the dormitory to check the list of their respective groups.
Eiko sighed, how did she always feel like she had fallen into a pit
