More about Liu Changcheng
Liu Changcheng, a Chinese Olympic volleyball player who later coached in Germany, died October 12, 2026, aged 62.
Born in Beijing on May 3, 1964, he represented China at the 1984 Summer Olympics. After immigrating to Germany, he played for Moerser SC from 1989 to 1993 and Post Telekom Berlin from 1993 to 1995.
He later worked as a volleyball coach in Germany. His career record thus covers Olympic competition for China, two successive club engagements in Germany and a later coaching role there. Biographical information lists his nationalities as those of the People’s Republic of China and Germany, and names Jenni Liu and Yina Liu as his children. His name in Chinese is 刘长城. The documented dates place his Olympic appearance before his German club seasons, which began five years later and continued through 1995. His move to Germany preceded those club spells, and his subsequent work as a coach kept him in the sport after his playing career. The account identifies both his competitive playing and coaching work in volleyball, spanning his career in China and Germany.
