Chapter 11: Reserves

When the other notified team members didn't come, Ding Yike asked Wei Xiao and them to stand dry, and waited until the remaining three people came, and then she criticized them again, and then let everyone start to run laps to warm up.

The training was open, the doors were open, and anyone could come in and stand on the sidelines or walk up to the stands to watch.

Just now, I saw that the school team had not started training for a long time, and the atmosphere was very solemn, and there were fewer and fewer people watching.

After running a full fifteen laps around the course and having to complete it within the allotted time, almost everyone gasped for breath and rested on the course in a scattered manner.

There was only one person, and his face did not change after the whole run, as if this was indeed just a warm-up exercise for him.

This person is Wei Xiao, the inch-headed man who was practicing as soon as they came in.

Just now, Ding Yike called his name - Zhou Ran.

Weschaot remembered, because there was a vague feeling that this might be the absolute heart of the varsity team. It's the kind of kind that trains hard and is extremely strong, even if you don't look at his well-proportioned muscle lines, his complexion has become dark due to long-term sun bathing, just from just watching him shoot, there are about twenty or thirty shots, but only one is missing, which can also be seen.

Bai Youwei was also not used to running fifteen laps at once, and he was panting even more uncomfortably than Wei Xiao.

They don't have to feel embarrassed, the other three freshmen who were recruited are also in a similar situation, maybe Lu Minghui is slightly better than them.

The other veteran players were also wheezing, but they recovered much faster than them.

When most of the people have almost recovered, Ding Yi can let the team rearrange neatly.

"Today is the first day for our Xingchen University basketball team to start preparing for the National College Competition." Ding Yike stood with his arms crossed, and the physical education teacher behind him was walking in boring steps, "First of all, I want to announce one thing." Coach Liang will announce his retirement at the end of this semester. I'll be the head coach of the varsity team next semester. Strictly speaking, today I counted. ”

The veterans were shocked and surprised when they heard it, and the senior who was late couldn't help it. said: "How can this be, we just lost this year, if it weren't for the captain's injury......"

"Coach, he brought it up automatically." Ding Yike interrupted, "And he asked me to replace him, which is also what he meant." I know that you are reluctant to coach, and I am reluctant to do so, but the school team still has to continue to compete, and the coach also hopes that you can unite as one and win back all the losses you have lost this year in the next semester. ”

The originally solemn air was soaked in sentimentality, and the veteran players looked very uncomfortable. Wei Xiao can also understand a little, he met Coach Liang once, and he wanted to join the school team in the first half of the semester, and he found Coach Liang.

Coach Liang is very amiable, and he doesn't have any adult shackles. Although Wei Xiao was rejected, Coach Liang did not make him feel uncomfortable. In the end, Coach Liang also asked his name, which made him feel respected. It's just that after about half a year, Coach Liang can't remember him again.

Bai Youwei, who has never seen Coach Liang, is thinking, Ding Yi is still a junior sister, let her be the coach, in the name of Ding Jianmin's daughter, of course, but being a head coach is not strict, and she also needs on-the-spot coaching experience, can she really take on the responsibility?

"If Coach Liang wasn't there, then I wouldn't have to stay on the school team. Anyway, I'm in my senior year next year, so I don't think I have much time to waste. ”

After some consideration, another veteran who was late put forward the idea of quitting the team without giving Ding Yike any face.

Ding Yike didn't say anything, the senior who was about to graduate, but still cared about the team, said: "Lu Bin, there are not many old players left, and you are also leaving, do we want to give the pressure to the freshman juniors so quickly?" ”

Lu Bin, who is nearly 1.9 meters tall and has prominent cheekbones, put on a disdainful attitude towards this, and said indifferently: "What if there is one less me, don't we have a once-in-a-century genius player?" Wouldn't it be okay to let the juniors give him all the balls? ”

"Lu Bin, say a few words."

Ding Yike kept calm, she had been prepared for this.

"Anyway, I stated in advance that the team can find someone to take my place at any time." Lu Bin said, "Of course I won't just throw my face and leave, as long as it is Coach Liang's team on this day, I am willing to set things right for the team." ”

"If any of you want to leave, you can leave at any time." Ding Yike put on a tough attitude and said, "The school team will never be short of people, even if all of them are freshmen and sophomores, the game will still be played." Today, there are five new players who are on the varsity team, and they are here to prove that they are not qualified to replace the old players. ”

Coach Liang set a rule for the school team, each freshman must ensure that there are at least 4 freshmen in the list of 15 people submitted to the national college competition.

Generally, these four people are the elites selected by the coaching staff in advance to each high school. Some college entrance examination scores are not enough, and the school can still recruit them exceptionally.

In this way, the school team ensures that there is a continuous flow of fresh blood, and if the players are often playing in the third and fourth years, as soon as they graduate, the replacement players have little experience, and the team's performance will inevitably be affected.

Ding Yike's first plan to become the head coach was to build a small reserve team for the school team.

In the past, if the roster was not enough, the coaching staff would only organize a small selection, most of which were recommended by the school team, or the coaching staff would dig up the people themselves, and would not openly recruit the whole school, because there would inevitably be a lot of people who signed up, and the audition would be very troublesome.

After all, you can only choose two or three at most, so there is no need to go through such a lot of trouble.

The reserve team is a new model that replaces the one-time selection to fill the vacancies on the roster.

Reserve team members can train with the team. And every cycle of training will have a brutal end of elimination.

Whoever is last in the overall ranking will be kicked out of the varsity roster, whether it is a reserve team or an official player.

Now let's say that there are 4 freshmen selected for next semester, and there are 7 people on the official roster of the varsity team and 5 people on the reserve team, for a total of 16 people.

Even if Ding Yike doesn't recruit more reserve players, he needs to eliminate one person.

One person is obviously not enough to mobilize the enthusiasm of the players, so Ding Yike made it clear that there will be more reserve players to join in the future.

"Even if the captain comes back, there is a good chance that he will be eliminated." Ding Yike said, "Of course, someone like him, who never slacks off and has a certain strength, doesn't need to worry about anything at all." If anyone is afraid that they will be eliminated and lose face, they can take the initiative to quit as soon as possible, it's okay. ”

Regarding Ding Yike's arrangement, Wei Xiao was not worried at all that he would become an unlucky person who would be eliminated, but he became excited from the low feeling of being criticized.
