On September 29th, 2019, China won the Women’s Volleyball World Cup trophy(奖杯) in Japan. China won the gold medal with perfect 11-0 record. It was also the team’s 10th world title. “The trophy is the best gift to celebrate the 70th birthday of New China,” People’s Daily said in an article.

The Chinese women’s volleyball team has long been the pride of all Chinese. In the 1980s, the team won five world titles in a row, which raised people’s confidence at the time. Since then, its fighting spirit has inspired generations of people, both within the team and across the country. People always follow the women’s volleyball as an example and learn from their spirit of never giving up.

Working hard was key to the team’s success. The World Cup was played in several different cities and team didn’t have much time to train. But they trained hard as soon as possible. On September 25th, for example, they arrived in Osaka at 2:30 p.m. and started training only an hour later.

Never giving up, especially during difficult times, is also part of the team’s fighting spirit, according to head coach Lang Ping. Many of the team’s members kept on playing even after being injured.

With their latest win, the girls are ready to prepare for next year’s Tokyo Olympics.
