Wang Yimei and Zhang Lei have been re-selected by Macau Sports Press Association and Hong Kong Sports Press Association to compete for My Favorite Galaxy Star Player award from the latest player list of the China Team for the Macau leg. GEG continues to organize My Favorite Galaxy Star Player award for the fifth consecutive year, offering spectators the opportunities to vote for their favorite players.

The eight original nominees were Hui Ruoqi and Zeng Chunlei from China, Daymara Lescay Cajigal and Rosanna Giel Ramos from Cuba, Maret Grothues and Manon Flier from the Netherlands, as well as Lora Kitipova and Elitsa Vasileva from Bulgaria. However, after a series of intense competitions in the National Games of the People's Republic of China, head coach of the China Team Lang Ping has adjusted the player list for the Macau tournament so that some of the players can stay in Beijing to restore their body energy. Therefore, Wang Yimei and Zhang Lei have been re-selected for the voting, while the nominees from the other three teams remain unchanged. With tremendous support from volleyball fans across the country, Big Hammer Wang Yimei, the first ever My Favorite Galaxy Star Player, is truly eligible to be nominated for the award again. Another nominee Zhang Lei has been named the team captain in the tournament of Macau leg this year with superior performance. 1 P a g e
