Zhu Liwei, the head coach of Evergrande U-13, speaks highly of the China Youth Championship : "Since the first match of the China Youth Championship qualifiers on July 3, the players have gone through a total of 21 games, and with each one they kept improving. The quality of the matches, for these kids, was at times even better than training itself,” he noted. “Overall, the level of the China Youth Championship is very high and it plays a crucial role in the players’ development.”
