Last year, Nankai Women’s Volleyball Team successfully roared into the National Finals of 2019-2020 CUVA with excellent scores. It is the best record of Nankai Women’s Volleyball Team in this competition since 2015. The players’ tenacious spirit became a highlight of the celebration of the 100^th anniversary of Nankai University.

However, the year 2020 is destined to be a unordinary year. With the spread of the epidemic, the CPC Central Committee recommended people to consciously isolate themselves and to reduce their contact with others. Meanwhile, Nankai University also issued a notice to postpone the return to school. However, the CUVA National Finals is coming in spring, so besides keeping a keen eye on the epidemic spreading in China as well as responding to the calls of CPC Central Committee and Nankai University, the team also actively prepares for the competition, without ever lowering its guard. Due to the limitation of field equipment and other reasons, the coach team put forward the plan of online training at home.

The players are giving full play to their advantages in the discipline. They showed students the online training plans in detail, the motion pictures of training standard and the volleyball action modelling on Wechat. Their actions aim at publicizing the benefits of indoor daily exercises, passing on the idea of “Conscientious, Comprehensive and Lifelong Sport”, and showing the uplifting spirit of Nankai sportsmen.

During the spare time on campus, the players of Nankai Women’s Volleyball Team didn’t stop playing volleyball with their friends, to improve themselves after the training. In this particular moment, they still persevere in keeping the tradition. So far, the series of online training promoted by Nankai Women’s Volleyball on Wechat, “nankaitiyuzhisheng”, already won a good reputation.
