Li Xiaoxia was born in Anshan, Liaoning, and is currently registered in Jinan, Shandong. Now we can say: Li Xiaoxia was originally from Liaoning, but is now from Jinan, Shandong.

Li Xiaoxia’s experience is as follows:

In 1995, Li Xiaoxia was under 8 years old and still studying in preschool. At that time, Anshan Chemical Textile Factory organized a table tennis class. When Li Xiaoxia saw children of the same age playing table tennis, she insisted on practicing table tennis without leaving. Her mother, Jiang Yan, sent Li Xiaoxia to a table tennis class, and the coach of the table tennis class was Zhang Hongzhi. After practicing with Zhang Hongzhi for nearly a year, Li Xiaoxia made great progress. However, due to various reasons, the table tennis class in the Chemical Textile Factory could not continue. Li Xiaoxia, who had become obsessed with table tennis, transferred to coach Shi Haimei of the Tiedong District Sports School to continue practicing. Play ball.

In 1997, Guo Yue went to Liaoning Provincial Sports School. Because there was no better opponent in Anshan, in order to play well, coaches Shi Haimei and Zhang Hongzhi suggested sending Li Xiaoxia out to play in a higher-level team. At that time, Li Xiaoxia happened to be participating in the 1997 National Rising Star Cup Youth Table Tennis Competition held in Jinan. Li Xiaoxia performed outstandingly and was spotted by Lu Hongzhu, the coach of Jinan Sports School. Director Lu said at the time,

Li Xiaoxia is definitely a good candidate for table tennis, and she should be able to achieve good results judging from her figure. When Li Xiaoxia was under ten years old, Li Gang and Jiang Yan were a little reluctant to let Li Xiaoxia go too far. After much deliberation and considering the future development of their children, they finally decided to let Li Xiaoxia develop in Shandong, so Li Xiaoxia entered Jinan City Sports School to play ball. In 1998, Li Xiaoxia was selected into the Shandong Sports Team and became a professional athlete.
