Chapter 18： World Class

The semester assessment is a traditional feature of Ajax ’s youth training. Every year, two assessment tests are organized to assess the competitive status and strength of the players. The five players with the worst assessment results in each age group will be eliminated every semester. , And add newcomers during the reorganization of the new semester.

Strict assessment standards, cruel elimination rate, coupled with the stimulation of metabolism, all make Ajax full of fierce competition for all ages. Every player must strive to improve themselves and meet the ball. Team requirements.

Even after being screened and eliminated, in the highest age group, only one of the six people can sign a professional contract with the club and enter the Ajax second team and get a two-year study period. If you meet the requirements of the first team, you will be forced to leave the team.

It is precisely under this nearly brutal competition mechanism that Ajax has a very high success rate. Ninety-five percent of the players who pass the echelon assessment will eventually become professional players, but they may not necessarily play for Ajax.

Almere learned and borrowed from Ajax ’s complete set of youth training mechanisms, including semester assessments, but was limited by the level of perfection of the youth team and the difficulty of players ’supplements, so only one assessment test was arranged each year, and only Eliminate three players.

But even so, it has made everyone on the team feel more pressure.

In the past, Yang Yang was the best choice for everyone to be eliminated, but in the past more than a month, with Yang Yang ’s outstanding performance, especially one game over one game in the past four games, he has already Becoming an indispensable and important member of the youth team, it is not uncommon to pass the assessment.

There is even news that the first team coach John Rep intends to recruit several outstanding students such as Yang Yang and Genk Dimer into the first team in the new semester, and participate in training and competitions with the team.

Yang Yang saved himself, but also intensified the competition within the team, the elimination quota increased from the original two to three, and any players with risks began to become self-defeating.

Since the usual training is also included in the assessment results, everyone works **** the training ground, and sometimes even the movements are inevitably too large, even during the training, there is always a competitive atmosphere of bayonets.

John Rep and Dick Fanpoor silently watched the training on the sidelines, neither of them stopped them.

In their view, the team's previous training atmosphere was too loose, and now this kind of real sword is really aimed at it, that is called training.

"From the performance of the past period of time, Yang Yang passed the assessment is not a big problem." Dick Van Poor said with satisfaction.

In the past four games, Bakken Academy has three wins and one loss, and only lost to the city's rival enemy Omnibas. Yang Yang performed very well in the next three games. He has assists in the field and is the team's three-game winning streak. A great hero, he was very pleased with his head coach.

"His cultural class score is the first in the team, even in the Bakken Academy, it is also a top student. Speed, flexibility, explosiveness and endurance are not problems. One-on-one offense and defense are also top-notch in the team and psychological quality There will be no problems. "

Dick Fanpoor didn't know yet, and with this introduction, he suddenly discovered that Yang Yang's desirable advantages were still many.

"The biggest problem right now is his basic skills, such as shooting, passing and passing."

The assessment is divided into three parts. The training and game records are usually evaluated by the coaching staff. The final test is also scored by the coaching staff for each player ’s related projects. The projects and scoring standards are drawn from Ajax. There are a total of two Ten small projects.

After each small project is scored, the coaching team will summarize and evaluate, and finally get the assessment score, combined with the usual training and competition records, and finally give a total score.

The three leading players are rewarded and represent Almere in the selection of Ajax's talent day, while the three players with the lowest total points will be forced to leave the Almere youth team.

John Rep nodded slightly after listening to Fan Poor's report, which was similar to his recent assessment.

As a well-known right-winger in Europe, he is more and more interested in Yang Yang, who also plays the right-wing position, mainly because his progress in the past more than a month has been too fast and amazing.

Even now, his basic skills are still not good, barely reaching the passing line of the youth team, but his pendulum pendulum has been used more and more skillfully. In the past few inter-school games, No one could hold him.

This surprised John Rep, but he also clearly saw Yang Yang's potential.

After all, he is only sixteen years old. With the current momentum of progress and his hard work of training, maybe it can really surprise people.

"There are still a few days before the assessment, you have to be well prepared." John Rep cautioned carefully.

"This time, in addition to the Almere city government and some social people who have cooperated with the club on weekdays, I also specially invited a world-class famous person to come in person. He is usually not good to invite, but this time he agreed to him. In the Netherlands and Ajax's influence, we must show our youth training results. "

Dick Fanpoor nodded solemnly, but he was curious.

Given John Rep's position in Ajax and the Netherlands, even he finds it difficult to invite him, so what is the origin?

However, the head coach does not intend to announce in advance, so he is not easy to ask.

"After the training, you tell them that the three best players will not only get the opportunity to go to Ajax for the talent day, the club will also formally sign a professional contract with them and enter the first team in the new season."

Almere is currently at a critical moment for rushing to B. If the success of rushing to B, then entering the first team is equivalent to having a chance to play in the Dutch League. This is a great temptation for any player.

Even if the club unfortunately failed to rush to the second, the new season of playing in the third tier league is also a big improvement for them.

…………

…………

Sure enough, when Dick van Purr conveyed the head coach's promise after the training, the atmosphere in the team was even higher.

In particular, a group of leaders led by Genk Dimer, they are already the best players in the team on weekdays, and now the coach has given such an attractive reward, why are they not desperate?

Yang Yang was also attracted. He also wanted to win one of the places.

Not only for professional contracts and first-team qualifications, but also for being able to see his idol Van Basten.

After seeing the magnificent Amsterdam Arena with his own eyes, he dreamed of meeting Van Basten and wanted to compete with his peers like Ajax and even the talented players of the first team.

He really wants to know how far he is from the best peers in the world.

Seeing the gap clearly, he will be more motivated.

In the next few days, there was no competition at Bakken Academy, and Yang Yang put in training day and night. Every day except school, he did n’t even need to help the restaurant. Uncle Shen Ming knew that his semester assessment was imminent, so he strictly focused on training.

In the skate park during the day and in the super training ground at night, Yang Yang is constantly practicing the basic movements that other people have already mastered before the age of ten, and dare not slack off.

In an instant, it was the morning of the assessment test.

This is a rare sunny day, clear blue sky and cloudless, blue as if it had just been dyed.

At the suggestion of Lao Bing, Yang Yang, who was still energetic after a hard night's training, in order to maintain his state, his training amount in the skate park was greatly reduced in the morning. After counting the time, he trot all the way to the training ground.

The atmosphere in the locker room is obviously more boring than usual. Everyone is arranging their shirts and boots. No one is talking. Even after Yang Yang came in, everyone just looked up at him. Many people ’s His eyes were very complicated, and only Genk Dimer and others nodded toward him friendly.

Obviously, they were all in the top three, and did not feel the threat of Yang Yang.

More than a month ago, Yang Yang was still recognized as the bottom player. Even if he was reborn, he would not be able to make rapid progress in more than a month, or even reach the top three.

Things like basic skills pay attention to gradual progress. The progress rate like Yang Yang is already very fast, but if you want to catch up with players such as Genk Dimer who have practiced hard for nearly ten years, then Is simply impossible.

Yang Yang is also very self-aware of this, but he is still willing to do his best for this.

For some other teammates who might be eliminated, Yang Yang felt unwilling, envious and even resentful in their eyes. He was a little sad in his heart, but he was very clear that winning the fittest is the basis for a team to remain competitive.

Even if head coach John Rep is soft-hearted and keeps them, it will only become more and more unable to keep up with the team in the future.

The same is true for myself.

Putting on the jersey and putting on the boots, when Yang Yang walked out of the locker room, he saw Dick Fanpoel encouraging the players who walked out one by one outside the door. When Yang Yang's turn came, he encouraged him in addition to encouraging him. A few words.

"Mr. Repp told me to work hard and show his best. He believes you will be able to stay."

"Well, thank you Mr. Rep."

"He also said that as long as you pass the assessment, as long as you continue to work hard to maintain the current momentum of progress, the new season team will sign a professional contract with you, and he will also choose to take him to the first team, you can not let He was disappointed. "

"I understand." Yang Yang nodded.

He can feel that although John Rep and Dick Van Poul are optimistic about him, they still feel that it is difficult for him to stand out in the assessment, otherwise there is no need to give him such a promise in advance.

But the more so, the more he wanted to fight.

At the very least, he had to prove that he had been training in the **** for more than a month. The blood, sweat, and effort he had spent were not in vain. I want to rush next week, please vote for me, thank you! Three o'clock tomorrow, a chapter is updated at 12:30 in the morning. Tonight I support Croatia ... I hope to see a miracle!
