Chinese women's soccer faces challenges in women's soccer

Chinese women's soccer started in the late 70s, reached a climax in the mid-80s, and initially established a three-tier ladder training system from amateur - semi-professional - professional, and worked out a set of systematic, practical and effective training guiding ideology and methods in the training practice. In the training practice, a set of systematic, practical and effective training guidelines and methods, technical and tactical level and overall strength have improved greatly, basically formed a unique technical and tactical style of Chinese women's soccer.

Towards the end of the 80's, in order to meet the needs of the Olympic development strategy, China re-determined and adjusted the key development projects of competitive sports, and in the early 90's, there were only 7-8 professional teams in women's soccer.

After the 90's, the development of the world's soccer movement has undergone a series of major changes, one of the landmark changes, is the women's soccer in the global boom and showed great potential for development, with the Women's Soccer World Cup and the Olympic Games women's soccer tournament set up, soccer is no longer the men's only competitive field, women's soccer has become an important element of the world's athletic sports programs. The women's soccer has become an important element of the world's competitive sports program.

So far, the United States of America, Brazil, Europe's Norway, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Russia, and Asia's Japan, South Korea, North Korea and other countries have a set of more perfect women's soccer training competition system. Women's soccer games have become one of the most popular sports. In the United States to soccer as a way of exercise for women about 7.5 million people, all schools have girls' soccer teams, women's soccer clubs amounted to 790.

The 3rd World Women's Soccer Championship held in the United States in 1999, whether it is the market business operations, or televised media coverage, can be comparable to men's soccer, only the championship finals on-site audience of up to more than 90,000 people, and to more than 70 countries around the world for broadcast.

Women's soccer is booming in the world, to meet the challenge of maintaining China's women's soccer in the world's leading edge and first-class level, and strive to break through in the new century, for China such a men's soccer development level is relatively backward and in a short period of time it is difficult to make a breakthrough in the country, has a very significant and far-reaching significance. For this reason, it is necessary to formulate and improve the women's soccer development plan and measures according to national conditions, so as to guide and promote the healthy development of Chinese women's soccer. Last week, two photos circulated on the Internet, once again let the survival of China's women's soccer naked into the public eye.

The two photos were taken at the National Women's Soccer Championship, which is being held at the famous base in Qingyuan. The girls, who train and play a lot of sports every day, eat three out of four vegetarian dishes.

Then people learned that in this tournament, many of the girls had to sleep on extra beds, and some of them even brought their own sheets and covers. What is the economic survival of the former "clanging roses"?

Three teams withdrew due to funding

In fact, the teams that were able to travel to Qingyuan to participate in the national championship were lucky enough. Just before the start of this tournament, three women's soccer teams had already withdrawn from this national championship because of financial reasons. One is Changchun women's soccer team, one is Guangxi women's soccer team and the last one is Dalian Albin women's soccer team.

Just the year before, the Dalian women's soccer team had just won the national women's super league championship, but after Albin took over, with the deterioration of the economic conditions of the Albin club, the Dalian women's soccer team's economic conditions are also declining, and this time it is even more directly absent from the tournament. How much money can women's soccer girls earn in the end? is a question that many people are concerned about.

There are only two or three teams in the Women's Super League with relatively high incomes, and they are all relatively good teams. Shanghai team has the highest income, their players basically monthly salary of about 10,000 yuan, and then counting the annual game bonuses, the highest income of the main year is close to 200,000, the average player also has more than 100,000 yuan. Such income is already the top salary in the national women's soccer players.

Jiangsu women's soccer team is also a top team in China, their women's soccer team has sponsorship, and their income is second only to Shanghai. The highest-paid starter on the Jiangsu women's soccer team also earns nearly 200,000 yuan a year. Dalian women's soccer team's income is not catching up with Shanghai and Jiangsu, but it was also a top domestic team before.

Dalian women's soccer girls are paid about 6,000 yuan a month, but their bonuses are not high. In the previous year, when they won the league championship, their team's season bonus was only 1 million yuan, which was divided into 30,000 or 40,000 yuan in the hands of each player. Note that this was not a championship bonus, but a full year's bonus.

And after Albion took over, the Dalian women's soccer team's income has been declining, and it is still unknown how it will perform in the future.

The remaining women's soccer teams have to rely on the salaries they receive from the sports teams because they have no sponsorship. Generally speaking, with the level of women's soccer Gou today, the monthly salary is only about 2,000 yuan, and if it is a young player who has just joined the team, it is even only 6 or 700 dollars.

But because most of the women's soccer team is still in the system, the usual training and food is not a big problem. Training will be in the provincial and municipal sports team's venues, and meals will be eaten at the sports team's athletes' stoves.

Entering the national team means higher income, Li Tie donated 150,000

Because the income is not high, so the women's national team for the player's attraction is still really very big. For women soccer players, being in the national team not only means honor, but also means increased income.

During the period of the national team, the training fee is 200 yuan per day, and in a month, the training fee is 6000 yuan. If you add some local team salaries and bonuses, the lowest income can be over 10,000 yuan.

Unlike the men's national team, the women's national team has always been a long-term training, with more than 200 days of training each year. On the one hand, the training level of women's local teams is uneven, on the other hand, the Football Association is also a way to give women's soccer players to improve some of their treatment, and improve the income of some high-level players.

But in the national team, it is difficult for players to get bonuses. Invitational tournaments for women's soccer generally don't have bonuses, and the winners of long-established tournaments like the Algarve don't get bonuses either. Often times the national team's coaching staff can only use their contacts to get a little extra income for the women's soccer players.

Before the Asian Games, Li Tie and his friends donated 150,000 yuan to the women's national team, and that's because the national team's head coach, Hao Wei, has been a good friend of Li Tie's since childhood. Before Shang Ruihua led the team during the period, but also the old Shang's friends invited the women's soccer team to go to dinner together, play football, and then give everyone a little bonus.

The All-China Games bonus is the biggest source of income

In fact, compared with the previous years, the environment of women's soccer has improved considerably, the main reason is that the All-China Games has changed the distribution of gold medals. Nowadays, the women's soccer matches in the National Games, as long as they make it to the final is at least two bronze medals, and the 9th in the preliminaries all have a bronze medal, which gives the provincial sports bureaus some incentive to develop women's soccer.

And women's soccer is also divided into groups A and B. As long as the team is seriously organized and practiced for a few years, it is possible to win a medal for the province. Compared to other sports, women's soccer has a good input-output ratio in terms of medals at the National Games. This is the main reason why women's soccer teams have instead increased in recent years.

And for the women's soccer girls, the National Games is also their biggest source of income. Each province has an incentive mechanism for winning medals at the Games, with gold medals ranging from a few hundred thousand to several hundred thousand, and tens of thousands for bronze medals. If you get the women's soccer champion of the National Games, that's three gold medals, which is the biggest income of the women's soccer girls.

So one to the National Games year, is even more important national team tournaments also have to give way to the previous year's East Asian quarterfinals, it is because of the National Games, until the start of the game before Hao Wei called all the people.

The tournament is to rate young players as first-class athletes

For women's international soccer players, another way to improve their income is to play abroad. But because the level of Chinese women's soccer has declined, few of the world's top women's soccer leagues have invited Chinese women's soccer players to play.

Women's soccer is currently going to the most is the South Korean league, women's soccer, including the captain Wu Haiyan and other four players went to South Korea, in South Korea to play their annual income can reach 250,000, which is the domestic women's soccer team can not reach the high salary.

But the level of training in South Korea is not guaranteed, so these four main players have not been able to play in the Asian Games because their physical condition could not keep up. China's failure to reach the quarterfinals was directly related to that.

But in the face of underpaid women's soccer girls, no one can say the heartless words of not letting them go abroad. Dalian women's goalkeeper Wang Fei, who has gone on to play in the German league, is one of the few players on the Chinese team who can meet international standards.

What happens after a girl retires from soccer, because she is part of the system, is that she is assigned a job. Generally, they will go to sports schools as coaches or teachers in primary and secondary schools, and those with good grades will stay in the football management center or sports bureau. However, coaches and teachers need qualifications and exams, so many of the girls are training and going to school at the same time.

The main purpose of the national championship held in Qingyuan is to give young players from various teams a chance to play in the tournament, which will allow them to be assessed as first-class athletes and create convenient conditions for the next step in their education. But I didn't expect the negligence in the organization of the tournament to expose the survival conditions of women's football.

For today's Chinese women's soccer, the Clanging Rose is really just a legend ......

P.S.: China's women's soccer population is still less than 1,000, the United States 3 million

Despite the Women's Premier League has insisted on organizing, but it is not enough to expand the soccer population of China's women's soccer, so far In the Women's Super League, for example, there are more than 20 players in each of the 16 teams, with less than 400 first-line players.

And from the current point of view, Japan's women's soccer population of 30,000 people, Germany's women's soccer population of 1 million people, the United States women's soccer population reached a staggering 3 million people, and in Finland alone there are about 25,000 women playing soccer .
