Coach Tiangang's bold words shocked everyone in the office. Coach Tiangang, who usually behaved in a low-key and reserved manner, was so arrogant today. No one expected this.
Even Coach Tiangang's old rival Gao Tou Li was looking at Coach Tiangang in confusion, shocked by his words.
"You..." Coach Gaotou opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say, and the words were stuck.
"snort!"
"Gaotou, it's not that I don't give you this face."
"Well, I will recommend Mr. Kamiso Ichiro in my personal capacity. If you have any promising students, I can also recommend them."
"But let me be clear, not all players who can participate in the training camp will be able to make the final 15-man squad."
"In the final analysis, it depends on ability!"
"As long as their performance is truly worthy of playing, I, Tanaoka Shigeichi, will never show favoritism!"
Coach Takeo's words completely blocked all of Coach Takato's escape routes, but for Coach Takato, coming to Ryonan today and getting this promise from Coach Takeo was enough.
The purpose of his visit was to hope that Coach Tiangang would not deliberately suppress the Hainan players. On this basis, it would be even better if Coach Tiangang was willing to guarantee the playing time of their Hainan players.
But he can accept the current result. After all, it is basketball. Ultimately, it depends on ability and whether you can win.
"Okay! Then I'll leave my team members in your care from now on!"
Coach Takato nodded and didn't bargain with Coach Tianoka anymore, and just finalized the deal.
"The training will start this week, wait for notification."
"I won't send you off!"
After saying this, Coach Tiangang took the notice back from Coach Gaotou, sat back in his seat, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Seeing this, Coach Gaotou didn't say anything more and left with the players.
"Hainan... Only Maki Shinichi is qualified to play. Doesn't Gaotou want to admit this reality?!"
After Coach Gaotou and others left, Coach Tianoka looked cold, snorted, and said with some disdain.
The next second, a bright smile appeared on his face. He carefully opened a drawer at his feet, took out two documents, and began to read them happily.
"Haha, I never thought that I, Shigeka Tanabe, would have the opportunity to coach a team like this!"
"Tian Ye, and Jinguji Budo..."
"With these two, I can win even if I use rookies in other positions!"
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
The two documents in Tanaoka Shigeichi's hand were the documents of Shigong Tianye and Jinguji Budou. These documents were distributed by the top management to the head coach. In these documents, there were also the ratings of Shigong Tianye and Jinguji Budou by the higher-level sports team. Shigong Tianye and Jinguji Budou both had the column of special grade one written on them.
...
All the Xiangbei players were notified of the selection of players for the autumn national sports competition in the evening of the same day.
The training of Xiangbei High School that afternoon seemed a little lazy because of this incident. The players' attention was attracted by the selection, and most of them had no mind on training.
In the Xiangbei gym, the players were doing sliding training around the basketball court.
Taking the court as the benchmark, players can jog at the baselines on both sides, and when they reach the long sides on both sides, they need to slide forward. Sliding practice is the foundation of the foundation, and it is also an item that players need to put a lot of energy into practicing.
After the start of the school year, the junior high school students who were specially recruited by Xiangbei also joined the regular training of Xiangbei High School. Rukawa Kaede and Kiyota and others chose to withdraw from the club after the summer season in order to train with the team and quickly adapt to high school basketball.
They also knew that Kanagawa Prefecture had begun selecting players for the Autumn National Games.
"In the autumn national sports, I will represent Kanagawa Prefecture in the competition!"
"That's amazing! I want to participate in such competitions in the future!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi was in the queue, and he was thinking about his future career as a player after entering high school, with a bright smile on his face. Before he could immerse himself in his beautiful imagination for long, Kiyota Nobunaga directly hit him: "Impossible, impossible!"
"There are only 15 players in the high school Autumn National Games, and each of them is a top player in the county. A rookie like you will never have the chance to participate in the Autumn National Games."
Kiyota Nobunaga waved his hands and said this while doing a sliding step. His tone was steady and his breathing was even. He didn't seem to be tired at all from this kind of sliding step training.
"What?! Wild monkey, what did you say?" Sakuragi Hanamichi heard Kiyota Nobunaga's ridicule and was about to explode when he felt a sharp gaze falling on him. Sakuragi's skin suddenly tightened, and he turned his head to see Akagi Takenori staring at him viciously.
"Hehe...hehe..." Sakuragi felt the threat from Akagi and smiled awkwardly, and his sliding speed couldn't help but increase a bit.
"If we go to Ryonan High School for training, these bastards will really become lawless."
Seeing that Sakuragi and the others had calmed down a little, Akagi Takenori said with some concern. Beside him, Mugure Konobu followed up with a sliding step and comforted him, "Don't worry, I will watch over them. Even if I can't, Coach Anzai is here, and they still listen to Coach Anzai very much."
"I hope so."
"In a few days, Wu Dao and I will go to the training camp. If it's early after the training camp, I will come back to the gym."
"I have to keep a close eye on them."
Akagi said in a muffled voice, his tone full of worry.
The sliding training lasted 30 minutes. After the training, Mitsui Shou led the players to do joint exercises to eliminate fatigue, and also gave the players ten minutes of rest time. Taking advantage of this short break, Jinguji Budou glanced at Sakuragi Hanamichi, pondered for a while, and found Coach Anzai.
No one else knew what the two talked about. Most of the time, it was Wudao who talked and Coach Anxi who listened, but he didn't express his own opinions. After Jinguji Wudao finished speaking, Coach Anxi nodded slowly, patted Wudao's waist, and signaled Wudao to leave.
Once the training for the Autumn National Games begins, Jinguji Takeshi will have no time to worry about Sakuragi Hanamichi. He is also worried that Sakuragi Hanamichi will slack off. After all, in today's Shohoku High School, there is no lovely Haruko Akagi watching the training on the sidelines every evening.
Sakuragi is the type of person who gets excited after a short while, and what attracts him to basketball is definitely not boring basic training. But Budou knows that Coach Anzai attaches the most importance to basic training, and the training method he provides is traditional and boring.
What Budou and Coach Anxi talked about are actually some future training methods. In the case of dribbling training, Coach Anxi only let the players dribble on the spot, or dribble with both hands in advance, which is too old-fashioned. Budou gave several dribbling training methods, which are advanced little by little, starting from the basics to the final fancy.
Basic training is still basic training, but it looks more "cool" and is also very practical.
Although Coach Anxi was a traditional coach, he did a great job in giving players freedom. Even he found some of Budao's suggestions useful, and nodded with a smile, understanding Budao's plan.
After that, Xiangbei's training really began to change. The original training plan of Coach Anzai and Mitsui Shou arranged a lot of basic training and physical training. The so-called basics are nothing more than dribbling, sliding, passing, layups, and basic running and physical training.
Xiangbei has weak substitutes, and in the past, physical training often occupied the vast majority of training.
However, in the past few days, Coach Anxi has started to increase the difficulty of the players, rather than simply increase the intensity. At the same time, Coach Anxi has even created a technical ladder score for the players, which is still public and ranked. In short, Coach Anxi has provided many training methods, and the difficulty of various trainings is different. After completing the relevant training, the ladder score will be awarded.
For example, taking dribbling as an example, if you can dribble in place for 5 minutes without any mistakes, you will get 2 points. However, if you can dribble with your legs in a figure eight shape for 10 minutes without any mistakes, you can get 10 points. Each person can get points 3 times a day for the same level of difficulty training.
In addition to training, there are also practice matches to get ladder points. According to the scores, two groups of low and high scores are formed. Winning adds points, and losing deducts points. Only winning and losing are considered, regardless of the individual performance of the players.
The increase in training difficulty and the ranking mechanism of technical ladder points have greatly increased the enthusiasm of the team's training, especially for junior high school students. Pursuing higher training difficulty, getting more ladder points, and surpassing other players in the same class are their biggest pursuits. For people like Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi who refuse to admit defeat, this ladder mechanism is like a shot of chicken blood.
Similarly, the enthusiasm of the junior high school students was fully aroused. How could the high school students, who were older and in higher grades than them, show weakness
For a while, the training atmosphere of the entire Xiangbei team was extremely high. After a few days of exploration, Coach Anxi had more and more tricks and the system became more and more sound. This kind of quantifiable strength and weakness made everyone in Xiangbei immersed in it. Every mistake and every more difficult attempt made the players worry about gains and losses.
At the same time, Ayako's work has become more arduous because of this so-called ladder score mechanism. But Ayako is also enjoying it. When the Xiangbei basketball team is training, she is no longer just sitting on the sidelines and acting like a Bodhisattva.
... .
One afternoon, after school, Jinguji Budou did not go to the Shohoku gym. Instead, he met up with Mitsui Hisashi, Akagi Takenori and others at the school gate, and then went to Ryonan High School in Kamakura together.
The distance from Xiangbei to Ryonan is not far, and the commuting time is only half an hour.
When Xiangbei and others arrived at Ryonan High School wearing Xiangbei's school uniforms, the campus of Ryonan was still bustling with various club activities being carried out.
After explaining their purpose to the guard, the five of them walked into the gate of Ryonan, heading towards the gymnasium while looking at the campus scenery of Ryonan. The Xiangbei uniforms worn by Wudao and others attracted the attention of many students. At the same time, the news that the basketball team had started pre-match training for the Autumn National Games spread like wildfire.
After hearing the news, some idle students rushed to Lingnan's gymnasium to watch the fun.
In the basketball hall of Ryonan High School, the players of Ryonan were doing daily training at one end of the court. On the sidelines, many students from other schools were sitting and watching the training of Ryonan High School. These were the players who were invited to participate in the training camp near Ryonan High School. Among them, Amu and others from Hainan arrived early and were sitting on the sidelines watching Ryonan training.
"I don't know when the training camp started. I took a rough look and there are more than 20 people participating in the training camp, including the ones from Ryonan."
"If the five people from Xiangbei come, there will be thirty people participating in the continuation."
Maekawa Daiki lowered his head slightly and whispered to Maki Shinichi beside him about what he had observed.
"Most of these people are just there to help. The training hasn't started yet, probably because one of the main players, Xiangbei, hasn't arrived yet!"
Maki Shinichi took a quick look at the players sitting next to him and said softly. At this moment, the door of the Ryonan Arena was opened, and a group of people from Xiangbei High School appeared at the door of the arena and looked into the arena.
"Os!"
Akagi Takenori stood in the middle and shouted a greeting to the field. As his voice spread into the field, the Ryonan people who were training at one end of the field finally stopped their training.
"Haha, we're finally here! Xiangbei."
Shinomiya Tano had just landed a dunk when he heard Akagi's greeting. He turned his head to the door and saw Jinguji Budou and others walking into the gym. He murmured and walked to the other end of the field. Behind him, Yuzumi, Sendoh, Hanagata and others followed. All the people from Ryonan High School who participated in the pre-Autumn National Games training camp left the team under the leadership of Shinomiya Tano.
Coach Tanaoka on the sidelines was also delighted when he saw Wudao and others. After shouting to the other players, "Train on your own", he walked to the other end of the field with Shinomiya Tano and others.
"Come on! All the players who are participating in the pre-match training camp for the Autumn National Games, change into your jerseys and line up in front of me!"
Coach Tian Gang held a document in his hand, shouted to the training players, and stood at the edge of the field, waiting for the players to gather. The players who arrived early had already changed into their clothes and shoes, and when they heard the instructions, they stood up and entered the field, and began to line up according to the school.
As soon as Jinguji Takeshi and others walked into the gym, they heard Coach Tanaoka's shout. They did not dare to delay and quickly changed their clothes and walked into the stadium.
"You guys, take pictures here!"
At the front of the line were the Ryonan players, who were the first to line up. Behind them, the players from each team formed their own line. The Xiangbei players were the slowest, and at the end of the line, they formed their own line.
When Coach Tiangang saw this scene, he waved his hand towards Wudao and the others, motioning them to stand in front.
After the team was lined up, Coach Tiangang looked at all the players and said loudly:
"Congratulations! You are the players invited to participate in the pre-match training camp for the Autumn National Games. Being invited means that you are all the best players in Kanagawa Prefecture!"
"Let me first briefly introduce myself. My name is Shigeichi Tanaoka. Later, I will be the coach of the Kanagawa Prefecture team. At the same time, I will also be your coach for the next two months!"
"You can call me Coach Tiangang."
"From the day you gather here, the selection has already begun."
"There are 15 people in the Autumn National Sports Team, but now there are more than 30 of you here. This means that in the next two months, I will eliminate half of you!"
"Before the training camp begins, I will divide you into groups!"
"There are three groups, A, B and C. Group A has 5 players, starting lineup! Group B has 10 players, substitutes. The rest of Group C will be eliminated!"
"Today's groups are based on your previous records and performances on the field. There will be no so-called physical training or basic training in the future training camp. There will only be competitions! The purpose of endless competitions is just to select the best players from among you."
"Now, the person whose name I called, stand in front of me!"
"Shinomiya Tano, Uozumi Jun, Sendoh Akira, Fujima Kenji and... ...Hanagata Toru, all stand in front of me!"
"From today on, you guys are Group A!"
As soon as Coach Takeoka finished speaking, there was an uproar. Coach Takeoka's Group A was composed entirely of players from Ryonan High School. In front of so many people, Coach Takeoka didn't even put on an act!
Everyone's eyes were subconsciously focused on Takeshi Jinguji. All the people present were players from Kanagawa. Takeshi Jinguji, who was able to become the Kanagawa Twin Stars together with Shinomiya Tano, was undoubtedly the strongest among them and the most qualified player to enter Group A.
Faced with Coach Takaoka's blatant favoritism, everyone wanted to see Jinguji Budo's reaction.
"Haha... Interesting!"
"This is... we need to fight for it!"
