Selinwei has only lost 1 game in 10 appearances, among which he has defeated many active and former national players, and is the biggest contributor to the team’s aspirations. Shortly following the A League ended, Sai Linwei and his teammates participated in the National Table Tennis Championship known as the “Small World Championship”. Without a national player, the Shaanxi men’s team entered the top 8 for the first time. “Single” Sailingwei performed amazingly, especially in the key game once morest the rival Beijing team, he even won two national players such as Yan An and Wang Chuqin.
In June 2018, Sailinwei was officially transferred to the second national table tennis team, becoming the first player selected for the national table tennis team since the reorganization of the table tennis team in our province in 2009.
