"Is it necessary? I'll come to watch your game and cheer you on." He remembered that Group D, Liu and Maori seniors were there.
“No need!” Yagyu was very clear about his own strength. He would not be able to be selected this time, but next time——
Of course!
…
Winners of Group A: Yukimura Seiichi, Kazami Yuta (third-year seniors)
Group C winners: Masaharu Niou, Bunta Marui
Group D winners: Yanagi Renji, Mori Juzaburo
The three groups of ACD successfully completed the competition, and the players who will become the main players have been determined.
As for Group B——
“Damn it, I won’t give in! Ah——” Kirihara roared and rushed forward again.
Group B has only one game left.
In the battle for the first and second place, the players who will be selected have been determined. They are the two people playing in front of us, but they cannot be announced until their competition is over.
The reason why it couldn't end was that Kirihara Akaya refused to admit defeat!
He refused to admit defeat, and Sanada was also angry, so he just kept fighting.
A long time passed...
Finally - the ending was still 6:0.
Kirihara raised his head breathlessly, and continued to stare without forgetting his original intention. (Niou-senpai was right. Even if we lose 6:0, we must not lose momentum. I will continue to stare!)
Then……
“Boom!”
“Deputy Minister Sanada, how could you hit someone?...X﹏X it hurts!” Kirihara touched his head pitifully.
Group B winners: Genichirō Sanada, Akaya Kirihara
The tennis club's regular season trials ended with Kirihara sobbing while touching the big bump on his head.
…
The main selection round is over and the national competition in Kanagawa Prefecture is about to begin.
The main selection meeting, or more accurately, the small meeting. Because Rikkai University does not have a coach, the four of them would hold a small meeting before and after the main selection trials.
The same happens this time!
The only difference from the previous ones is that this meeting may be longer because the county competition is about to start.
"The rules of the Kanagawa County Competition are still the same. We will not participate in the first week of the competition. We will start from the second week." The national champion is no joke. Whether it is the county competition, the Kanto competition, or the national competition, they are all seeded players.
Of course, not participating in the first game is a benefit that is dispensable to Rikkai University.
"So the Sunday of the first week - Liu!" Yukimura motioned to Liu to add.
"I have contacted Hyotei's coach Sakaki. There will be an exchange match on Saturday. As for Sunday..." He looked at Yukimura. He did not arrange an exchange match because other schools' competitions have already started next week. He probably didn't have time or people to come and communicate with him. He could find Hyotei because Hyotei was also a seeded player!
"Then, next week's exchange match is confirmed. As for the participants—" Yukimura nodded, then turned to look at Niou, "Niou, what do you think…"
The players must be selected from the doubles first, and among the four of them, Nioh is the first one to be selected. This is also the image that Nioh wants to create this year, a rising star in doubles.
Niou:...You really understand me!
"If we're talking about doubles, I'll go with Yagyu. We've been practicing privately. Yes, I'm also going to play doubles with him in this county tournament." Hyotei's exchange match is just a way to accumulate experience and expose problems. "For doubles, I recommend Marui and Kuwabara..."
After thinking for a while, he said, "If the Minister wants to hide some of his strength, I recommend Yanagi and Kirihara..."
The doubles between Marui and Kuwahara are more stable than that between him and Yagyu, and they are currently the most stable doubles combination in Kaida. Even though Kuwahara is currently in the second echelon, it is estimated that this year's doubles competition will be contracted by the two of them.
Yanagi looked at Niou. How could it be seen that he and Kirihara were a good match?
Niou said innocently, "Kirhara is a new force, are you sure you don't want to collect his data?" Becoming a partner and playing a game is the best way to collect data. He didn't believe that Yanagi wouldn't be tempted.
Yanagi: ...Okay. He hasn't finished collecting Kirihara's data yet, so he really needs to pay closer attention...
But, ah...it's really not a good feeling to have my thoughts seen through by Niou.
"I understand!" Yukimura was very satisfied with Niou's answer. Among the four of them in the tennis club, he, Sanada and Yanagi all had very clear divisions of labor. Only Niou didn't have a fixed position. It wasn't that he had no role, but that he was too useful!
Last year, Niou was like a lubricant, blending the relationship established between the first-year students and the second- and third-year students with his care for Mori-senpai.
Now, this cohesion seems to have been upgraded. Not only does he have to tie up Mori-senpai (others can't find where Mori-senpai is), but he also has to observe the doubles team. The Yagyu he pulled over, as well as Marui and Kuwahara are all within his observation range...
After these people were dismissed, there were only four of them left. The harmony of the tennis club was basically created by Niou's every move.
At the beginning of last year, he did not plan to bring Nioh into the group because he thought triangles were the most stable. However, after Nioh joined, he had a new feeling that although quadrilaterals were unstable, they were the most flexible!
When it comes to getting along with others and maintaining the stability of a community, it is not enough to be rigid. We need to be flexible so that everyone can feel a sense of belonging here.
Niou lay on the table, not wanting to look at Yukimura, for fear that Yukimura would assign him more work!
"Sanada..." Yukimura turned and looked at the next person, "The singles candidates for the county tournament and practice match..."
"I have observed the strength of Mori-senpai, and it has not declined. The newcomer this year is Kirihara Akaya!" Sanada frowned at this question, "Kirihara has a lot of personality problems, he needs to be suppressed! I will be responsible for it personally!"
Yukimura raised his eyebrows. Was Sanada's action a sign of seriousness or was it intentional?
Yanagi said, "I have discussed the issue of Kirihara with Sanada. This year's freshmen in the tennis club are not as good as last year's. Kirihara is the only outstanding freshman. In addition, he became a regular player based on his own strength. It's okay to pay a little more attention to him!!"
I have been paying attention to the problems of the new generation ever since they entered the second grade. However, the sad thing is that although Lihai University became the national champion last year and attracted many people to join the tennis team, unfortunately, the new members are of varying qualities and there are no good seedlings!
"Our goal is to try our best to achieve three consecutive championships in the near future. As for the future, they can just rely on themselves!" Ren Wang complained about Liu's unfounded worries. Of course, the future matters will be determined by the efforts of the younger generations themselves. What does it have to do with the predecessors?
"And the only outstanding person in this class is Kirihara. Can you expect Kirihara to lead the others?" Will this tire that kelp to death?
Liu Yi thought about it and agreed. Well, let’s talk about the future later.
In this way, all issues are temporarily settled——
Singles: Yukimura, Sanada, Mori, Kazami.
Doubles: Nioh, Yagyu, Marui, Kuwahara.
Adjustable personnel: Yanagi, Kirihara.
