Last night, Bayi Guangbo women basketball arrived in
Ningbo
. Last year, they lost in the WCBA Finals, but they'll start again to fight for the championship here in the new season.
Bayi Guangbo women basketball showed up at the lobby of
Lishe
International
Airport
at 8:30 p.m.. Liu Beiyan, political commissar and team leader, didn't appear. It's said that he'll stay in
Beijing
for the moment because of the fever. Young fellow Fu Chi who heals from a wound also didn't come. The team was led by new coach Sui Feifei. All together 12 players came to
Ningbo
this time, and most of them are new faces. Chen Nan, Zhang Xiaoni, Wang Fan, Pu Jingming, Lu Wen, Ren Lei and Chen Lixin have been familiar to fans. Chen Lisha who didn't show up in last season comes back. It was national champion Song Xiaoyun's first time to appear in Yinzhou as a player of Bayi Guangbo. After the National Games ended, she once announced her retirement. Guang Dong women basketball also held the farewell party for her. But she'll still show up in the game of new season. She has become the general of Bayi Guangbo.
Bayi Guangbo also transferred three young players Hou Qiulu, Sun Mengran and Liu Yang from the youth team. Sun Mengran born in 1992 has the height of 1.97 meters, almost similar to Chen Nan. We're not sure whether she'll have a better performance in the new season.
Sui Feifei still had a casual dress, wearing a hat which covers half of her face. She looked no difference from the age of the players. She said, there're lots of names for her at the team. However, she has entered the role of coach, dealing with the reporters with skilled diplomatic double talk. Meanwhile, she also temporarily takes charge of the duties of team leader that is absent.
The first battle of the new season will start on November 8th. Bayi Guangbo women basketball will face the challenge of Guang Dong Team. Song Xiaoyun representing Bayi Guangbo has her first battle with her old club, which will be a focus. Citizens who want to watch the game can buy tickets from the following ticket agents: east door of Yinzhou gym, gymnasium of Wangnong glass factory in Haishu, Yinzhou steel market sports city, Jiangdong east city flower and bird market gymnasium, Songzhao bridge middle school badminton hall, east lake primary school badminton hall and Huamao primary school badminton hall.
