Session Overview

In this 7-minute exclusive interview ahead of the 2015 FIVB World Cup in Japan, Coach Lang Ping discusses how China's women's national team adapted to losing team captain Hui Ruoqi right before the tournament. She explains her roster rotation philosophy, developing young spikers like Zhu Ting and Yuan Xinyue, and managing a grueling 11-match round-robin tournament.

Core Biomechanical & Tactical Principles
