The other day, the Chinese Volleyball Association officially announced the training list of the new session of the men's national volleyball team. Among the 18 people on this list, Ding Hui, a 20-year-old young player from Zhejiang Team, was particularly eye-catching, because he is a "black child", with Sino-African mixed blood, black skin and curly hair. He instantly became the focus of media attention. And he also became the first "black" player in the history of China's national teams...
The First Mixed-Blood Member of the National Team
In this list, we found that Ding Hui, a Sino-African mixed-blood from Zhejiang Men's Volleyball Team, was recruited.
And the recruitment of a mixed-blood into the national team is the first time in the history of Chinese volleyball. Regarding Ding Hui's selection, head coach Zhou Jianan said in an interview with reporters that it was a natural thing, "Today, countless people have called me to ask about this issue. I told them that bloodline and family situation are his private affairs, and I don't have much to think about it. The key is that he is registered with the Chinese Volleyball Association and meets our selection criteria."
