More stable and more confident -Chief coach Zhang Jing talks about the new season short track speed skating national training team goals

Under the leadership of the new head coach Zhang Jing, the 2022-2023 season short track speed skating national training team appeared in Beijing on the 26th. This new national training team will experience the tempering of international competitions one month later. As the general adviser to the National Training Camp before the establishment of the National Training Team, Zhang Jing observed the athletes through more than two months. She believes that the Chinese team mainly based on newcomers has a lot of room for improvement. In the year of training, the Chinese team will continue the glory of Chinese short tracks with a more stable and confident attitude.

Zhang Jing, 49, has coached the Hungarian team for many years. His results are obvious to all: leading the Hungarian team in the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics to get the first golden history of the Winter Olympics and start a gold and two copper at the Beijing Winter Olympics. This summer, Zhang Jing returned to China and participated in the short track speed skating national training camp as the general consultant. It is not surprising that the Chinese team's handsome seal is not surprising.

At the National Training Team on the 26th, Zhang Jing said that the Milan Winter Olympics cycle, the Chinese team will face more severe competition. South Korea, Canada, the Netherlands, and Hungary are still strong. Big competitive advantage. She said: "The Milan cycle will learn from the excellent experience of preparations for the Beijing Winter Olympics, and steadily advanced through the old belt. At present, the Chinese team has formed an international professional coaching team and an excellent due diligence. The preface is in progress. "

The Chinese team is about to begin dense international competitions at the end of October. All the six -stop World Cup competitions will not fall in the new season. They will also select athletes to participate in the four continents championships, World Youth Championships and World Championships. In Zhang Jing's plan, in the 2022-2023 season, in order to cultivate men and young athletes, they continuously exercise the ability to play in international competitions such as the World Cup and World Championships, accumulate experience in the competition, and lay a solid foundation for next season.

In the list of national training teams, only Ren Ziwei, Lin Xiaoyu, Li Wenlong and Zhang Chutong were participating in the Winter Olympics. The remaining 13 people have little experience in international competitions, and they can even be said to have almost no. Zhang Jing admits that through the six weeks of training she has officially took over, the current training level of the national team is "there is still a certain gap" internationally. Some players' single -circle results look pretty good, sliding 1000 meters is close to the top international level, but from the competition experience, taxi route and mentality, she believes that the national team still needs to continue to work hard and improve.

Zhang Jing admits that her expectations of the national training team this season are not high. She said: "This season is a adaptation period and familiar period, and the national training team's results will not be too prominent. Perhaps some athletes will improve quickly, but most people will It takes one and a half to two years to improve, and then a brand new appearance will be presented, and everyone will be more confident. "At the same time, she also put forward higher requirements for old players such as Li Wenlong and Zhang Chutong:" Older Older Older The players should show their best state. The weak women's team must show better performance in a short distance and 1000 -meter project and strive to enter the semi -finals. "

Zhang Jing hopes that through the game this season, the Chinese team can be familiar with their opponents, understand their opponents, and then improve their confrontation in the game. "This is really needed in the game." She said: "Most athletes compare Young, when there are key confrontation in the game, their stability is not enough. "

Zhang Jing, who has 25 years of coaching experience, said that through observations of the last Olympic cycle, especially last season, she believes that the Chinese team should pay more attention to the speed and short distance on the premise of ensuring the medium and long distance level. promote. She said, "I need to find a balance point from it."

What surprised Zhang Jing was the trust from the athletes. From the first day of returning to China to formal participation in training, she felt the athlete's trust and respect for her. Zhang Jing said: "I didn't expect us to build trust so quickly. The mental appearance and motivation of young athletes I didn't expect. I am very confident and look forward to their future."

As the "ace of the ace" of China Ice and Snow Sports, the head coaches of the Chinese short track team have always attracted much attention. Zhang Jing admitted that when she decided to return to China, she knew what pressure and challenges she would face. The Chinese short -sighted team is the team with the most gold medals in the Winter Olympics in the Chinese Ice and Snow Project. It is very different from her fame, which is very different from her training in Hungary. "China's short track speed has many years of Olympic gold medal precipitation. Under such inheritance, (the head coach) will naturally be under great pressure." She said, "However, in the past years, I have from the Chinese team's own technology and training. The system includes physical fitness, and I have seen a deeper space for improvement, and I think there is a lot of space. I am confident in this regard. "

Regarding the far -reaching Milan -Cordanan Danpezo Winter Olympics in 2026, Zhang Jing's attitude was calm and firm: "In Milan, the Chinese team must first inherit the excellent experience in the Beijing Winter Olympics, but also brand new Get excellent results -strive for more gold medals and better results.
