The Chinese women’s volleyball team has finalized its roster for the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics, showcasing a formidable lineup that includes five Olympic champions from Rio 2016.

Head coach Cai Bin has selected a diverse squad, featuring the seasoned talents of Zhu Ting, Ding Xia, Zhang Changning, Gong Xiangyu, and Yuan Xinuye, who have all tasted victory on the Olympic stage.

Zhu Ting, the 29-year-old star outside hitter, makes a significant return to the national team after her impressive performance in the recent VNL.

Joining the Rio champions are players like Li Yingying, Wang Yuanyuan, and Wang Mengjie, who represented China in the Tokyo 2020 Games, adding both experience and skill to the roster.

China has been drawn into Pool A for the Paris Olympics, where they will face tough competition from defending champions, the United States, in their opening match at the South Paris Arena on July 28.

Other challenging matchups await China as they take on hosts France and world champions Serbia during the group stage of the competition.
