Lang Ping and Raúl de Jesús Trujillo Díaz honoured with IOC Coaches Lifetime Achievement Award

From: Olympics.com

Both coaches have helped countless athletes to reach the pinnacles of their sports, winning dozens of medals in the process across several editions of the Olympic Games.

"It's really special to be here with all of you and to celebrate our two coaches for their incredible commitment and their lifetime of work in serving their athletes to become the best athlete, but also the best humans that they can be," said IOC President Kirsty Coventry during the ceremony. "So many of us who compete in sport know and understand that the lessons that we learn in sport will guide us in our everyday life after and this is where the role of coaches is so important", she added.

Congratulating the two winners, she continued: "Thank you for your commitment to your sports, to your athletes and their well-being for generations to come, because I know that, if I look at my coach, I will hopefully instil a lot of the lessons that she's taught me in my children. I can say that many of your athletes will do the same with their children, their friends and their family."

Lang's journey in sport began as an athlete in the early 1980s. Nicknamed “The Iron Hammer” for her fierce spiking at the net, she won an historic gold medal at the Olympic Games Los Angeles 1984 with China's women's team.

Lang took her first coaching role in 1987, and she coached the Chinese women's team to a surprise Olympic silver medal at Atlanta 1996.

Four years in charge of the USA women's team brought more glory, including Olympic silver at Beijing 2008. But it was her second spell as China's coach that cemented her place in history. When she guided China to the Olympic title at Rio 2016, Lang became the first athlete in history to win Olympic volleyball gold as both player and coach.

“This award is a great honour,” said Lang. “I am deeply grateful to the IOC and the FIVB [International Volleyball Federation] for recognising my coaching work. There are so many people to thank – from the brilliant teams and players I have coached in China, Italy and the USA, to the coaches and mentors who shaped me as a player and as a person from my earliest days in the sport. This recognition belongs to all of them.”

Lang's achievements and recognition are an inspiration for female coaches, who remain strongly underrepresented among elite-level coaches. Making up just 13 per cent of accredited coaches at Paris 2024 and 10 per cent of accredited coaches at Beijing 2022, the IOC has implemented several initiatives to help bridge this gap, including the Women in Sport High-Performance Pathway (WISH). Supported by funding from Olympic Solidarity, 120 coaches from 22 sports and 59 countries have graduated from the programme so far.

The IOC has also recently published Good Practices to Encourage Women Coaches in International Federations (IFs), a collection of case studies highlighting successful initiatives implemented by IFs – many funded by Olympic Solidarity – to increase female representation among coaches.

Both coaches have helped countless athletes to reach the pinnacles of their sports, winning dozens of medals in the process across several editions of the Olympic Games.

两位教练在其漫长的执教生涯中帮助无数运动员登上各自项目的巅峰，并在多届奥运会上摘得众多奖牌。

pinnacle /ˈpɪn.ə.kəl/ 表示“极点；顶点，顶峰”，英文解释为“the most successful or admired part of a system or achievement”举个🌰：By the age of 30 she had reached the pinnacle of her career. 她在30岁时事业达到顶峰。

"It's really special to be here with all of you and to celebrate our two coaches for their incredible commitment and their lifetime of work in serving their athletes to become the best athlete, but also the best humans that they can be," said IOC President Kirsty Coventry during the ceremony. "So many of us who compete in sport know and understand that the lessons that we learn in sport will guide us in our everyday life after and this is where the role of coaches is so important", she added.

国际奥委会主席柯丝蒂·科文垂在颁奖仪式上表示：“能与大家共同见证这一时刻，并为这两位教练的非凡奉献与毕生心血表示庆祝，真的意义非凡。他们不仅帮助运动员成为最优秀的运动员，也帮助他们成为最优秀的人。”她补充道：“许多曾经从事竞技体育的人都明白，体育带给我们的经验与教训会指引我们此后的每一天，而教练的角色正是在这一过程中至关重要。”

Congratulating the two winners, she continued: "Thank you for your commitment to your sports, to your athletes and their well-being for generations to come, because I know that, if I look at my coach, I will hopefully instil a lot of the lessons that she's taught me in my children. I can say that many of your athletes will do the same with their children, their friends and their family."

在向两位获奖者致贺时，她继续说道：“感谢你们对各自运动项目、运动员以及未来一代又一代运动员身心健康的投入。因为我知道，当我回想自己的教练时，我也希望把她教给我的许多道理传递给我的孩子们。我可以肯定，你们的许多运动员也会将这些道理传递给他们的孩子、朋友和家人。”

表示“逐渐灌输；逐步培养（感受、思想或行为）”，英文解释为“to put a feeling, idea, or principle gradually into someone's mind, so that it has a strong influence on the way that person thinks or behaves”举个🌰：It is part of a teacher's job to instil confidence in/into his or her students. 教师的部分职责是逐渐培养学生的信心。

🎬电影《梅茜的世界》（What Maisie Knew）中的台词提到：They're supposed to instill cooperation and pacifism. 他们应该灌输了合作与和平主义思想。

Lang's journey in sport began as an athlete in the early 1980s. Nicknamed “The Iron Hammer” for her fierce spiking at the net, she won an historic gold medal at the Olympic Games Los Angeles 1984 with China's women's team.

郎平的体育之旅始于20世纪80年代初。凭借网前强力扣杀，她获得了“铁榔头”的绰号，并随中国女排在1984年洛杉矶奥运会上赢得历史性金牌。

nickname /ˈnɪk.neɪm/ 可以作名词，也可以作动词，表示“给…起绰号”，英文解释为“to give a nickname to sb/sth”举个🌰：LR was nicknamed ‘Lu Rou’. LR外号叫“卤肉”。

Lang took her first coaching role in 1987, and she coached the Chinese women's team to a surprise Olympic silver medal at Atlanta 1996.

郎平于1987年开启她的首份教练工作，并在1996年亚特兰大奥运会上率领中国女排夺得银牌。

Four years in charge of the USA women's team brought more glory, including Olympic silver at Beijing 2008. But it was her second spell as China's coach that cemented her place in history. When she guided China to the Olympic title at Rio 2016, Lang became the first athlete in history to win Olympic volleyball gold as both player and coach.

在担任美国女排主教练的四年间，她继续创造辉煌，其中包括在2008年北京奥运会上率队夺得银牌。但真正奠定她历史地位的是她第二次执掌中国女排。当她在2016年里约奥运会上带领中国队夺得冠军时，郎平成为历史上首位以运动员和教练两种身份赢得奥运会排球金牌的人。

4）表示“壮丽；辉煌；灿烂”，英文解释为“great beauty, or something special or extremely beautiful, that gives great pleasure”举个🌰：They want to restore the castle to its former glory. 他们想重现城堡昔日雄伟壮观的面貌。

霍格沃茨新生报到文中提到，spell /spel/熟词僻义，1）表示“咒语，符咒；魔法；着魔”，英文解释为“spoken words that are thought to have magical power, or (the condition of being under) the influence or control of such words”举个🌰：The witch cast/put a spell on the prince and he turned into a frog. 女巫对王子施了魔法，把他变成了青蛙。

“This award is a great honour,” said Lang. “I am deeply grateful to the IOC and the FIVB [International Volleyball Federation] for recognising my coaching work. There are so many people to thank – from the brilliant teams and players I have coached in China, Italy and the USA, to the coaches and mentors who shaped me as a player and as a person from my earliest days in the sport. This recognition belongs to all of them.”

“能够获得这一奖项是巨大的荣誉。”郎平说，“我非常感谢国际奥委会和国际排球联合会（FIVB）对我教练生涯的认可。有太多人值得感谢——从我在中国、意大利和美国执教过的杰出球队和球员，到从我踏入排球运动起便塑造我作为运动员和人的教练和导师们。这份荣誉属于他们所有人。”

Lang's achievements and recognition are an inspiration for female coaches, who remain strongly underrepresented among elite-level coaches. Making up just 13 per cent of accredited coaches at Paris 2024 and 10 per cent of accredited coaches at Beijing 2022, the IOC has implemented several initiatives to help bridge this gap, including the Women in Sport High-Performance Pathway (WISH). Supported by funding from Olympic Solidarity, 120 coaches from 22 sports and 59 countries have graduated from the programme so far.

郎平的成就和所获得的认可，也不断激励着女性教练——她们在精英级别教练群体中仍严重代表不足。2024年巴黎奥运会上，女性教练仅占持证教练的13%；2022年北京冬奥会上，这一比例为10%。为缩小这一差距，国际奥委会实施了一系列相关举措，其中包括“女子体育高水平教练培养计划”（WISH）。在奥林匹克团结组织的资助下，迄今已有来自22个运动项目、59个国家的120名教练完成该项目。

under-represented /ˌʌn.də.rep.rɪˈzen.tɪd/ 表示“未被充分代表的；代表名额不足的”，英文解释为“If a type of person or thing is under-represented in a group or organization, there are not enough of them in it.”举个🌰：Hispanics are under-represented in US political institutions. 在美国的政治机构中缺乏代表西班牙裔的人士。

accredited /əˈkred.ɪ.tɪd/ 表示“官方认可的；获正式承认的；鉴定合格的”，英文解释为“officially recognized or approved”如：an accredited drama school 经鉴定合格的戏剧学校，accredited war correspondents 特派战地记者。

solidarity /ˌsɒlɪˈdærɪtɪ/ 表示“团结一致；相互支持”，英文解释为“If a group of people show solidarity, they show support for each other or for another group, especially in political or international affairs.”

The IOC has also recently published Good Practices to Encourage Women Coaches in International Federations (IFs), a collection of case studies highlighting successful initiatives implemented by IFs – many funded by Olympic Solidarity – to increase female representation among coaches.

国际奥委会近期还发布了《促进女性教练参与国际单项体育联合会的优秀实践》（Good Practices to Encourage Women Coaches in International Federations），这是一个汇集IFs成功实施的案例研究合集，其中许多项目由奥林匹克团结组织资助，旨在提高女性教练的代表性。
