As Xu Zhongyi said, Li Dai had just gone to work on the second day, and the Provincial Sports Bureau talked to him and asked Li Dai if he was willing to go to the youth track and field team as a shot put coach. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Li Dai knew that this was a good thing, and of course there was no reason to refuse, so he immediately nodded and agreed. The next day, Li Dai completed the relevant transfer procedures, and then went to the youth track and field team to take up his post.

The provincial youth team can be regarded as the reserve team of the provincial sports brigade, and the outstanding talents in the youth team will be selected to the sports team for training. Athletes in the youth team are between the ages of 16 and 18, with those under the age of 16 being considered junior and those over the age of 18 leaving the youth team.

In the youth team, the more potential athletes will be selected to continue training in the sports team, if they are not selected by the sports team at the age of 18, it basically means that the athlete has no room for improvement, at most he can be mixed in the city-level sports team.

Since the youth team athletes are limited, in terms of scale, the youth team is much smaller than the sports team, and the mobility of athletes is also relatively large. Sports schools and the city's sports teams will recommend athletes to enter the provincial youth team every year, and those talented athletes who come to the youth team for a few months may be picked up by the sports team, and some athletes are self-aware of the average level and choose to give up in advance.

"Acting Head Coach of the Shot Put Project of the Hanbuk Provincial Youth Track and Field Team!" Li Dai looked at the transfer document in his hand and talked about his new position.

The word "deputy" implies that there has not yet been a formal appointment, but this does not affect the exercise of authority. This situation is common in the system, such as the acting mayor of a certain place, the acting director of a certain bureau, the acting director of a hospital, etc., although they all have the word "acting" on their heads, but it is only a matter of time before they are officially appointed, and no one will really regard them as "agents".

The head coach of the youth track and field team is named Lubin, 40 years old, who looks very shrewd and capable, and because there are fewer coaches in the youth team, Lubin also serves as the head coach of the hurdles event.

After Li Dai arrived, Lu Bin took Li Dai to familiarize himself with the environment of the youth track and field team, meet his new colleagues, and then came to the training ground for the throwing event.

There are a total of four throwing events in athletics, namely shot put, discus, javelin and hammer throw, of which the shot put is definitely the smallest.

Javelin and hammer throw, professional athletes can throw fifty or sixty meters easily, and world-class players can throw more than seventy meters; In the case of discus, the average athlete can throw it to forty or fifty meters. But if you throw the shot put, if you can exceed 16 meters, you can be considered a first-class athlete in China.

……

"We still have five players left in the shot put, and this is the list." Coach Lubin handed a piece of paper to Li Dai.

"Only five people? So little? Li Dai felt a little incredible, shot put is not a sport with a good threshold, and after all, this is a provincial training team, how can there be only five athletes, even if it is a high school sports team, even the number of shot put is more than this.

Coach Lu Bin smiled a little embarrassedly: "Before the Chinese New Year, a selection was held on the side of the sports team, and all the good seedlings were picked up, and the selection of a new batch of athletes has not yet begun, so there are fewer athletes in the team now." ”

"But that's too little, isn't it? Only five people? In the past, I used to run my own training class for students with sports specialties, and I was able to gather eight people. Li Dai had a slight complaint in his tone.

Lubin looked indifferent, and he explained: "Whenever the sports team comes to select, it is very important for these young athletes, especially those who have reached the age of eighteen, if they can't be selected by the sports team, they can't continue to stay in the youth team, because after the New Year, they will be one year older and don't meet the youth requirements of the youth team." ”

"As for the new batch of athletes, they are basically junior high school graduates, and they will not come to our team until July, after graduating from school. Therefore, during the period from the Spring Festival to June every year, we are in a state of lack of athletes. ”

Lubin said this, taking a breath of regret, and then said: "In addition, there are a large number of athletes who will quit halfway. ”

"What made them quit halfway?" Li Dai asked.

"There are various reasons, some are family reasons, parents do not support them to become athletes, and they feel that they should still work hard to study and go to university. Some of them can't endure hardships, young athletes used to receive amateur training at most, but after coming to our team, they have to receive professional-level training, and the training intensity has increased a lot, and the athletes can't stand it, so they quit by themselves. There are also those who feel that they will not achieve anything if they continue to practice, so they give up as soon as possible and don't continue to waste time. Lubin thought for a moment and continued: "In addition to this, there are some athletes who choose to leave for psychological reasons. ”

"What psychological factors?" Li Dai showed a curious expression.

Lubin then explained: "The level of those who can be selected for our provincial youth team will not be very bad, they should be among the best seedlings in their respective counties, even if they are in the city-level training team, they are also outstanding." But when it comes to us, it can really be described as an elite gathering, and those good seedlings at the municipal level are nothing at all in our place, and there are many people who are stronger than them. Some young athletes who won the first place in municipal competitions may not even be ranked in the middle of our provincial youth team. This psychological gap has led many excellent athletes to choose to give up. ”

"yes, athletes aren't that easy. Hearing you say that, it's pretty good that I still have five people left on my side. Li Dai said with a smile.

"Don't be too optimistic. These five athletes are all relatively average in their talents, and they don't usually train hard, and they feel like they're messing around, and they haven't left yet, I think it's because they haven't found anything else to do. Lu Bin said and patted Li Dai on the shoulder: "In short, during this period of time, you adapt first, and the results of leading the team are not important, and when the new athletes come in the second half of the year, it is the focus of our work." ”

……

"Name first!" Li Dai clapped his hands, and the five athletes stood in a row.

"Zhao Zhanshan, Qin Lei, Luo Feng, Chen Jianxian, Wang Bin."

The five people below shouted "to" one by one, and Li Dai could be regarded as knowing these five athletes.

At the same time as the roll call, Li Dai also used detection on them, but the result made Li Dai depressed.

Among the five people, the best talent is Su Health, who has the talent of C, and the others are all C- talents, and in terms of ability values, they are all below 100.

"In shot put, young athletes are lighter, and they are indeed not dominant, but this ability value is too low!"

Li Dai couldn't help but shake his head.
