Zhang Chang-ning (OH) may have a rest because she hopes to have a child.
Wang Yi-mei (OH) should be thought to be retired in 2020 and so should Zeng Chun-lei (OP).
Foreigners participating:
Vargas (Turkey/Cuba -> Tianjin)
Kim Yeon-Koung (Korea -> Shanghai)
possibly some Serbian players -> Shenzhen (if it happens)
The National Volleyball Championship is scheduled for October 20-28. There are 13 teams listed to participate, Tianjin, Shandong, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Liaoning, Zhejiang, Fujian, Sichuan, Guangdong, Beijing, Henan, Yunnan, and Hebei.
No mention of the new Shenzhen club, maybe things didn't work out or they're only taking part in the league?

We can add Larson to Shanghai. I think Dixon is returning to Beijing as well based off her IG.
I guess the only thing I'm disappointed in is that the season will be short again which I don't understand since it's not an Olympic year. Now it'll be three short seasons in a row which isn't helping the players development.
I saw somewhere Bjelica is playing in China next season, but I don't remember where

Most likely Beijing, the team she was supposed to join last season.

I haven't heard anything about the length of the season. Where did you hear it will be a short one?

Larson's interview on the USA NT thread (at the 5:30 timestamp), "heading to China for a short professional season and then Athletes Unlimited Season 2".

Oh that's disappointing.
the rumor:
Dajana Bošković (BIH) will join Shenzhen VC.
Interesting rumor

Shenzhen VC is sponsored by Serbia (I don't know it is official or unofficial).
However, I guessed that its foreign players might be young Serbian players.
Dajana Boskovic isn't young.
Wang Si-min might join the other club.
Tianjin VC couldn't give her more chance to play the matches.
After 2021 Chinese National Games, she will be a free agent once again.
When does the league start? Larson is getting honored at Nebraska in October.. and with AU starting in the winter/spring… this season really is going to be short

For 2021-22, 22-23, 23-24 seasons
at least 4 months long, at least 200 games total.
need to consider covid protocols.

Yes, she in an interview
The way she emphasized "short season in China" I wonder if she plans to leave early

Probably doesn't matter, but she has yet to be Champion of the Chinese League (2019-20 2nd Place, 2020-21 Third Place) and this season alongside KYK is her best chance since Tianjin won't be stacked.
