Girls from the Zhou Xin Table Tennis Academy had the great honor to meet another World Champion Guo Yue while they were training in the Liaoning Province Team. The facility is huge. The Men’s team trains on the 3rd floor while the Women’s team trains on the 1st floor.

The picture was taken in the Liaoning Province Sports Center. Lots of other sports also train there all year round. The center provides not only the training facilities but also dormitories and restaurants. The Japanese Junior team is currently training there too. Fukuhara Ai had trained in Liaoning team for many years when she was a kid. she can even speak fluent Mandarin with the Liaoning accent. The ZXTTA coach Maggie Tian actually had trained with Fukuhara Ai when she was still in the Liaoning province team in China and Japan.
