Chapter 55 A New Beginning



In a blink of an eye, the new school year begins again. On April 4th, freshmen enter the school and submit the application form. On April 8th, the freshmen reported to the club, but the test and preliminary screening of freshmen did not need to be done by Kudo, the coach. He completely handed over this matter to team captain Ryosuke Ushijima and vice-captain Keita Yamamuro Kudo asked the two of them to test the new students together with the officers of the basketball department.

After the preliminary screening, two-thirds of these freshmen have been eliminated by Ushido and the others, and there are still about 40 people left. Of course, those who are eliminated are those who have no perseverance or just regard basketball as a hobby and don’t want to work hard for it. Those who train, they will join the cheerleading team or play basketball on the school's open-air basketball court. It is impossible to use the court in the basketball hall.

The remaining 40 freshmen were brought to Kudo by Ushishima.At this time, Ushido said loudly: "All of you introduce yourself! Tell us your weight, height, and where you play in the middle school."

"My name is ×××, Class 1, Year 5, height ×××, weight ×××, I will type ××"

"I'm Takano Shoichi from Class 1, Class 5. I'm 190cm tall and weigh 82kg. I was a center forward in junior high school."

"I am ×××, my height is ××, and my weight is ××."

"Kenji Fujima, Class 1, Year 1, height 174cm, weight 62kg. I play point guard and shooting guard."

“诸星大,1年7班,身高是183cm,体重是74kg。我1、2、3号位都可以打。”

"×××, ×××, ×××."

"I am Toru Hanagata from Class 1, Year 1. I am 193cm tall and weigh 80kg. I play No. 5 in junior high school, but I can also play No. 3 and No. 4."

"I am ×××, height ×××, weight ×××, I type ×××."

"I, I am Kazushi Hasegawa from Class 1, Year 12. I play forward in junior high school. I am 185cm tall and weigh 78kg."

"I ×××, ×××, ×××"

"I'm Mitsuru Nagano, Class 1, Year 9, 188cm tall and 80kg in weight. I can play both center forward and forward."

………………

After the freshmen finished their self-introduction, Kudo lectured them: "Okay, you are all members of the Xiangyang team for the time being, but don't be happy, Captain Ushishima told you, the training of our Xiangyang team In terms of hardship, it is also one of the best in the country, so I advise everyone, if you want to become an official player of the Xiangyang basketball team, you must have perseverance and perseverance, and you must endure hardships, otherwise you will leave the team as soon as possible. A trained player, no matter how talented he is, will achieve nothing. Mark my words."

"Yes!"

Kudo said: "Okay, I've finished my words. Ushishima, you can take them to train according to our team's plan!"

"I see, coach."

In this way, the freshmen's training began. Of course, because they have just entered high school, many players did not have a lot of training in junior high schools, and Xiangyang's current training volume is also greater than most high school training volumes, so Kudo didn't do it at first. It may be that their training volume is the same as that of the first-choice players. This requires a gradual process. As for those who cannot persist during this period and give up competing for the first-choice players, it doesn’t matter. Or join the cheerleading squad.Of course, if some freshmen have completed the amount of training given to them by Kudo and want to practice more, Kudo will also ask them to increase the amount according to their own conditions, so that it will not exceed the tolerance of their bodies.

A little over a week later, the remaining freshmen with 20 players left were swiped in half again.And how many of these 20 freshmen can persist in the end?Kudo may not be able to come up with an accurate answer to this question.After all, there are no senior high school players among the alternate players. Those senior high school players who have been training for two years and have not yet entered Kudo's 15 main selection list all left the team when they entered the senior high school. There are only 5 players who are sophomores. Of course, 20 players have joined the team now.

"Okay, today is the time for the team's practice match. But now let's arrange for the freshmen to play a game, let me observe it carefully!" Kudo said to the forty players standing in front of him, "Ushishima, you Go to be in charge of forming the team, after all, you have been leading them for a week, and you should be a little familiar with them."

"Yes! Coach." Ushido, the captain, responded loudly.

A few minutes later, Ushido divided the 20 people into red and yellow teams, with him as the temporary coach of the red team, and the vice-captain Yamamuro as the temporary coach of the yellow team.Of course, the two of them did not serve as temporary coaches to give tactical guidance to the freshmen, but to arrange the temporary lineup of the two teams and prepare for substitutions at any time.

The freshmen have been training for more than a week. From the degree to which they usually complete the training, Udo and the others can see the level of the freshmen.So Ushijima assigned Fujima, Hanakata, and Hasegawa to the red team, and Zhuhoshi, Takano, and Nagano were in the yellow team.

In the red team, Fujima and the three of them are the first to play. Fujima is the point guard, Hasegawa is the forward, and Hana is the center.And the three Zhuxing players in the yellow team also started the game, among which Takano was the center forward, and Nagano and Zhuxing were the forwards.The game started with a jump ball by Hanagata and Takano.

In addition to the two captains who are temporary coaches, the old players are also watching the freshmen's game.

The flower-shaped jump ball was successful, and the ball reached Fujima's hands, but the defense of Fujima's defender was not good, so Fujima passed him with an acceleration, and immediately ran to the yellow team's penalty area and scored a layup.

The yellow team had the ball, and the ball was in the hands of Zhuxing. Facing Hasegawa who was defending him, Zhuxing passed him with a feint.

Afterwards, the two teams fought fiercely under the leadership of Fujima and Zhuxing. These two are very good. In terms of skills alone, there are not many players in Xiangyang who can surpass them.And after 5 minutes of the game, the two of them even faced each other directly.Both of them are excellent, but their styles are somewhat different. Fujima handles the ball very well. He scores a lot by himself but is also very good at connecting teams. It can be said that he can break through, pass, and shoot.Zhu Xing is completely different. Most of the yellow team's possession of the ball is concentrated in his hands. He can be said to be a super scoring machine with various offensive skills. The level of ball control is also good, but when the ball is in his hands, he rarely passes it out. When he was in junior high school, Zhu Xing's offense was strong, but his defense was a bit weak, probably because of his attitude. When he was in middle school, he spent more time practicing offensive skills.But this is also very normal. When they first came into contact with basketball, who doesn't like offense more, and how many people will train defense from the beginning?

After another 7 minutes, Kudo asked Ushishima and the others to replace Fujima and Morohoshi. After all, Kudo wanted to observe all the freshmen through this game, and they couldn't let them take all the limelight.However, the two of them stared at each other after leaving the court, and they probably regarded each other as the biggest competitor in the team in the future! !
