Live broadcast, September 15 -in today’s radio program, Yang Yi talked about the topic of the expansion of Chinese basketball population.
Yang Yi said: it is impossible for Dayao not to know how to catch basketball. It has been 5 years since Yao came up from 2017 to now, how about the youth training of Chinese basketball? Everyone in the circle knows that it is not as good as before, even worse. What’s going on? So how should we cure the root cause and why can’t we cure the root cause? Let’s talk about this today.
When it comes to this matter, first of all, it comes to a topic, which is a standard speech and speech that can often be seen on the Internet: there are more than one billion people in China, how can’t 12 basketball players get out? To be honest, those who are still asking such questions should be almost absent from the audience of Yang Kan, because still asking such questions is equivalent to sports blindness, basically, I know nothing about the basic situation of Chinese sports. Dayao said that the registered population of Chinese basketball registered in the register is 12000. According to the same data, there are more than 100 million people in Japan and more than 1,000 people in the United States, which is 1000 times that of us. Registered population means that people who have registered in the sports system at all levels in China have participated in regular training and competitions, have sustainable development in the basketball project, and will play professional in the future. To put it bluntly, it is professional, including both men and women, only 12000 people. Those who play blindly, exercise physically or play street ball are not counted. So the basketball population is just like this.
Separation of sports and education is an old topic. Needless to say, the more times develop, the more family conditions improve, the more sound parents’ cognition is, the less people go to professional teams, the more people go to high school and go to college, the more educational people grab from the sports mouth, the easier it is to grab. One of the most important tasks of Dayao over the years is to promote the talent show system so that high-level athletes in universities can have more opportunities to play careers. This is actually to strive to expand the Chinese basketball population under the current circumstances, that’s all Dayao can do at this stage. As for the sports system of the university, the training level and training intensity of the basketball in the university, they are generally unable to keep up with it, and the athletes generally spend too long in the university. These problems are managed by the Ministry of Education, not by sports people, sports mouth can’t be controlled. Therefore, the expansion of Chinese basketball population is very difficult. It is not to say that there can be a big expansion and promotion within 10 years, which cannot be seen clearly. It’s not that you don’t want to expand, but it’s not as easy as everyone thinks.
Therefore, our basketball population is very low. For several countries in East Asia, our basketball population is larger than that of South Korea, and the basketball population of South Korea is smaller. South Korea only has more than 7,000 people, therefore, the South Korean team is also one generation less than one generation. The previous Asian champion was the battle between China and South Korea, but their speed is now gone.
What we just said means to increase the basketball population in the short term, just like you want to increase the football population and increase the sports population in China. It is basically difficult and impossible. It is not a sports thing, it has nothing to do with who cares.
