The players of the National Rhythmic Gymnastics Team experienced the Asian Games venues in advance during the championship, found the feeling of the competition, and achieved the effect of training for the World Championships.

For the national rhythmic gymnastics team team and individual athletes, in the first World Championships in the Paris Olympic cycle, actively adapting to the changes in the new rules of the project, running the team, and training newcomers are all important goals.

　　In terms of collective events, the top three teams in the collective all-around in this World Championship will be qualified for the Paris Olympics, and the Chinese team will make all-out efforts towards this goal.

In the Paris Olympic cycle, the collective all-around competition of rhythmic gymnastics has changed from 5 goals, 3 laps and 4 bars in the Tokyo cycle to 5 laps and 3 belts and 2 goals.

The Chinese rhythmic gymnastics group players also completed the replacement of old and new, joining two new players Wang Lanjing and Pu Yanzhu.

In terms of complete set arrangement, it not only integrates the Chinese-style "Breaking Array" and "Water Dragon" in the 5-lap event, but also selects the highly internationalized movie "Harry Potter" in the 3-band and 2-ball event. Special" music arrangement.

In the Rhythmic Gymnastics World Cup Pesaro Station held in June this year, the Chinese team won the third place in the collective all-around and the second place in the 5-lap single event.

Through the Italian competition, the Chinese team gained some new understanding on the rules and the difficulty of the movements, and after returning to China, they revised the whole set of adaptations.

The Chinese team will strive to explain the two sets of actions in a way that is more in line with the rules at the World Championships, step on the direction of the rules, and strive to achieve perfect performance.

　　The rules of individual rhythmic gymnastics in the Paris Olympic cycle have also undergone great changes, strengthening the requirements for artistic expression, and the deduction points for artistic points are more refined, clearer and more demanding.

At the Asian Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships held in June, Zhao Yating won the bronze medal in the individual all-around, and also won two bronze medals in the lap and belt events, helping the Chinese team to get a full seat at the World Championships.

The young player Zhao Yue, who made his debut on the international stage, also won the fifth place in the single event of ball gymnastics. The complete arrangement and artistic style display of Chinese players were also recognized in the competition.

Through the competition in the Asian Championships, the members of the individual Chinese rhythmic gymnastics group found some deficiencies in the difficulty rating with their opponents, and also clarified the direction of preparation for the World Championships.

After last week's championship drills, I expect the players to reach their personal best in the World Championships and achieve stable performance.
