"Wow, the list is out! Let me see, let me see!"
In the F Province Track and Field Team, after hearing that the list of names was out, Qiu Mingjie gathered around his teammate and, together with everyone around him, looked at the list on that teammate's mobile phone.
Zhuo Yutang seemed as calm as usual, but from his clenched fists, it could be seen that he was actually still nervous.
The coach of their F Province track and field team reported all the athletes who were in training and met the requirements in terms of events and age. This was because Su Bai did not restrict those who only trained for 400 meters during the initial screening. Therefore, there were many athletes who could compete in 100 meters, 200 meters, or both long jump and 100 meters. This is also the reason why some people on the Internet have seen a wide range of events for the selected athletes.
Among this large group of people, there are not many athletes like Qiu Mingjie and Zhuo Yutang who specialize in 200m and 400m.
"Fuck, I know this Wu Tian. His main event is long jump. Because of his strong explosive power, he also competes in 100 meters. Was he selected as well?"
"Oh, I know Brother Monkey too. He's so skinny. With that body, isn't he a good middle-distance runner? How did he get on the tryout list?"
"I've seen this Yang Yi before. This girl is so pretty, I tell you! She is definitely running the 400 meters in this event..."
They were all athletes from the provincial track and field team. They all had more or less experience in competing outside. Most of them knew the athletes on the list, so more people were talking about them.
"Hey, how come we haven't seen so many yet and our team is still missing?"
"Could it be that no one from our team was selected?"
A group of people were talking at once, and they all felt that if no one was selected, then the F Province Track and Field Team would be too miserable - but this was not impossible, after all, there were only 60 people on the roster, and if any provincial team or sports school was lucky and took up two or three places at once, and if there were a few more like this, then there would definitely be some teams that would not have anyone selected.
Just when everyone was feeling a little disappointed, they suddenly saw a familiar name - Zhuo Yutang from the F Province Track and Field Team.
"Oh my, it's my cousin! Not bad, not bad. I thought my cousin was talented. Sure enough, he's on Coach Su's tryout list!" The person who spoke was a little excited.
Qiu Mingjie's eyes lit up after hearing Zhuo Yutang's name: "Wow, is Atang here? Where is he? Let me see!" Then, after Qiu Mingjie held onto his teammate's hand and took a look at the list, he jumped three feet high, turned around and jumped onto Zhuo Yutang.
"Atang, Atang, you've been chosen!" Qiu Mingjie was so excited that he felt as if he had been chosen too.
Zhuo Yutang was also very happy after hearing his name, but just two seconds after he was happy, Qiu Mingjie suddenly stuck to his body, and he had to try hard to tear Qiu Mingjie off his body.
"Alright, alright, if you knew me you were happy for me, but if you didn't I would have thought you were a monkey climbing a tree."
Hearing his words, Qiu Mingjie curled his lips and said, "What's wrong with a monkey climbing a tree? What's our relationship? I'm happy for you!" As he said that, he grinned again.
After Zhuo Yutang tore the person off, he turned to look at the crowd who were looking at the list: "Is Mingjie among them?"
Qiu Mingjie waved his hands indifferently: "Ah, Atang, you are all we need. There was only one name in the team ahead of us. Our team depends on you to win face. You must stay in the national team..."
Qiu Mingjie was just mumbling something, but before he could finish, everyone there celebrated for a while, and those who continued to look down at the list shouted out in a loud voice: "Fuck! Fuck! Qiu Mingjie! Our team's candidates, Atang and Ajie, were both selected!"
Qiu Mingjie, who was originally celebrating for his good brother and trying hard to suppress his disappointment, was completely stunned. He stared blankly at everyone when they heard his name, then he quickly moved into the crowd and grabbed the teammate who was holding a mobile phone.
"Where is it? Where is it? Ahhh, let me see!"
When Qiu Mingjie saw his name on the list, he started grinning. He walked over to Zhuo Yutang with his phone and said to him happily, “Atang, look, we’re both selected!!!”
Having said that, Qiu Mingjie turned around and handed the phone back to his teammate, then hugged his teammate and was about to kiss him on the face like crazy. However, before he could kiss him, he was grabbed by the back of the neck by the collar and torn away from his teammate.
"Ouch, ouch, what are you doing, Tang?" Qiu Mingjie was pulled and staggered backwards.
Zhuo Yutang stared at him expressionlessly: "Alright, you are an adult now, when will you get rid of this habit of hugging and biting people when you get excited?"
Qiu Mingjie curled his lips. His good brother was good in every way except that sometimes he treated him like his own son.
No matter what, everyone in the F Province Track and Field Team was very happy, because two people from their team were selected by Su Bai for trial training! It’s not certain whether Zhuo Yutang and Qiu Mingjie can be retained by the national team in the end, but it would be worth it if they could try out with the national team for a period of time!
But he was training with Su Bai!
And even if they were not selected, the fact that they were on the public tryout list means that their talents ranked at least in the top 60 out of the thousands of names submitted nationwide.
For such players, even if they cannot join the national team for the time being, the F Province Track and Field Team will definitely train them well. Judging from the public list, there are only six or seven players who are 15 years old this year, including Zhuo Yutang and Qiu Mingjie.
what does that mean?
Among the athletes of this age group, Zhuo Yutang and Qiu Mingjie's talents in the 400-meter event must be among the best in the country!
In short, on the day when the list was announced, provincial teams and sports schools across the country were extremely lively. Although some were happy and some were sad, overall, most people were still excited and happy that someone from their team was selected.
After the announcement of this public list, the selected players from various provincial teams and sports schools immediately began to pack their luggage, and then headed for the national team training base in City B according to the time required by the national team.
As for the national team, there is already a complete set of rules and procedures for accepting trial athletes. This time there are only 60 trial athletes, so there is no problem with the national team's ability to accept them.
The only problem lies with Su Bai - after all, there are 60 trial athletes coming at once. These athletes have different ages, talents, and previous main training events. Some of them have never seriously practiced 400 meters before.
After these athletes arrive, the 400m coaching team led by Su Bai will inevitably face different pressure than before.
"My requirement for this selection is that everyone selected has the potential to run under 45.30 seconds. This will also be the selection threshold for the new generation of national team 400m athletes in the future."
When Su Bai told the coaching staff about this standard, everyone present was so surprised that they were speechless.
After Su Bai clearly expressed his goals and ambitions for selecting players, he handed a training test form to different coaches in the coaching staff.
Of course, the national team's coaching staff includes not only Su Bai, Zheng Xingguo and Wang Ting. In addition to them, there are also group coaches for different details including physical fitness, strength, muscle building, etc. The training test forms Su Bai gives to each coach have different details. He has made detailed separate forms based on various elements such as the gender, age group, original events and 400-meter training progress of the upcoming athletes.
As for the specific training programs during the trial period, it was impossible for Su Bai to produce training plans for 60 different players in just a few days, so he explained the precautions to the coaches present.
Su Bai personally made large training forms for three age groups, and distributed two physical examination forms to the coaching team. After the 60 trial athletes arrive at the national team, the physical examinations and tests will be repeated within the national team.
Each coach needs to judge the training items that need to be conducted for the athletes, as well as the final number of training sets for different training items, based on the physical test scores and physical examination data of different athletes on the form provided by Su Bai.
Simply put, with this form, each coach can fill in the correct answers to the athletes' training items based on the standard values created by Su Bai, and then use the "correct answers" they filled in to train the corresponding athletes - although this correct answer cannot be compared with the overall training plan that Su Bai personally formulated for each player, it is sufficient for use in the initial stage of the tryout.
Wang Ting and Zheng Xingguo didn't expect Su Bai to have made such thorough preparations, so they were not worried at all and said they understood what Su Bai meant.
However, after the physical trainer, strength coach and other sub-coaches left, Wang Ting and Zheng Xingguo still stopped Su Bai with some concern, wondering if his goal was a little too high.
Men should finish within 45.30 seconds and women should finish within 51.90 seconds.
It would certainly be a good thing if it could be achieved, but...are there really so many domestic players with such potential?
Hearing the two's doubts, Su Bai smiled and said, "I just hope that their potential can reach this level. The specific results still depend on the subsequent training and the status of the selected athletes."
Seeing that Zheng Xingguo and Wang Ting were still a little hesitant, Su Bai said very straightforwardly: "Although everyone didn't think so in the past, I still found a lot of good seedlings through this athlete screening. I dare say that among these good seedlings, the top players, as long as they don't deviate from their character in the future and can cooperate well with the training, their future achievements will definitely be better than Zhang Ziyi."
"China is not short of talented athletes. Don't worry. What we need to do is to find these talented athletes and then lead them to become stronger."
Under Su Bai's persuasion, both Wang Ting and Zheng Xingguo strengthened their beliefs and agreed with Su Bai's statement.
Over the past year or so, Su Bai has gradually become the spiritual pillar of the 400-meter event - since Su Bai said it's possible, then they will... give it a try!
Amid such anticipation, 60 trial athletes from all over the country arrived at the training base of the national track and field team one after another.
