Item from Sept 27, 1982, in China Daily: The victorious Chinese women's volleyball team receives World Championship medals in Lima, Peru, yesterday (right).
China triumphed in the championship for the first time with a magnificent 3-0 victory over the host nation. ...
China's women's volleyball team won five world titles in a row in the 1980s, cheering up the nation so much that the "spirit of women's volleyball team" has since become a phrase in Chinese.
