Xinhua News Agency, Hohhot, February 20th: quick skating girl

on the roller coaster ice rink, Xinhua News Agency reporter Wei Yuyu and Wang Chunyan

12-year-old Dolan, in the short track speed skating field, it is like a “small butterfly”. She deftly surpassed her opponent in the curve and accelerated neatly in the straight road. Finally, she rushed to the end with a light attitude and easily won the women’s 1000 m champion in the short track speed skating C Group of the second Winter Games in Inner Mongolia autonomous region. The off-site audience gave her warm applause again. She had already won the women’s 500 m and 1500 m championships in Group C.

After winning the game, Dolan reluctantly slipped on the ice rink for a while before he ended up. “The ice here is really comfortable to slide, just like driving on the highway, which can accelerate at any time, while skating on the ice rink in our hometown is as bumpy as riding a roller coaster.” Doran joked.

“Roller coaster ice rink” is located on Xilin Lake, Xilin haote city, Inner Mongolia. This outdoor ice rink is the main training ground for local speed skating and short track speed skating athletes.

Every morning at 6 o’clock, the ice rink staff drove the homemade pouring ice wagon to start pouring ice. Pouring ice wagon is actually an agricultural tricycle, behind which a large water barrel can leak at the bottom is pulled, and a piece of vinyl leather is hung on the bucket, which can make the newly poured ice face brush flat.

There are many uneven places on the ice that has been poured like this. Even though the ice rink was hard, there were still more than 20 young athletes aged 5 to 14 training here at 9 a.m. every day during the winter vacation.

37-year-old Jia wanchao is the coach of the speed skating team of Xilinguole League. The former champion of speed skating in Inner Mongolia autonomous region now focuses on popularizing skating to teenagers.

After gathering at 9 o’clock, Jia wanchao led the team members to finish the warm-up exercise and quickly started the training on that day. During the winter vacation, the daily ice training time is only 2 hours in the morning. At noon, citizens will go skating here one after another. At that time, Jia wanchao can only lead the team members to conduct physical training.

Older players such as Dolan glide on the track, practicing speed and endurance, while younger players learn basic movements in the middle of the field. Jia Wen Chaoyi answered the questions of the players in the middle of the field, and shouted for technical guidance to the players sliding in the outer circle for a while. His voice was blown away by the howling wind.

In winter, the temperature reaches minus 30 degrees Celsius, often blowing 6 winds. The orchid trained in the outdoor ice rink is difficult to resist the biting cold wind even when wearing down jacket. “When the wind is strong, the children can’t bend down when they slide against the wind, and down jacket of them are blown up.” Jia Wenchao said.

In spite of this, the little players who love skating are still firmly chasing their dreams here. It mainly focuses on long-distance Dolan, and often trains itself to continuously slide 100 rounds to exercise endurance. “After sliding to more than 50 rounds, I started to turn black in front of my eyes. I felt that I could no longer open my eyes when I closed my eyes. I thought that this group would never slip after sliding. Stick to the 80th circle, thinking that the fight will be over. After the fight, I will not feel tired. Wait until the next training, I am still willing to slide another 100 rounds.”

Duolan was selected into the autonomous region team in 2018 because of outstanding achievements and participated in the national U series. When asked about the results of the competition, Doran said shyly, “I didn’t get a good ranking. There are too many strong players everywhere.” Then she added seriously: “skating was happy when I was a child. Now I can’t just think about happiness, but I have to constantly surpass myself. I believe I can also skate well in the future.”

On the “roller coaster ice rink” in Xilin Lake, Li Xiang, a junior high school student who participated in the 13th National Winter Games, now Dolan is working hard to “hear his name on the 14th Winter.

Looking forward to the “second spring” of Chinese billiards”

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, April 8th: looking forward to the “second spring” of Chinese billiards — exclusive interview with Wang Tao, vice chairman and secretary general of China Billiards Association

Xinhua News Agency reporter Zheng Zhiliang Jinxiong

As Robertson defeated Lisovsky in the final, another World Snooker China Open ended. Wang tao, vice chairman and secretary-general of china billiards association, said in an exclusive interview with xinhua news agency that billiards is experiencing new developmental period in china and is looking forward to the “second spring”.

New Challenges

“China Open has been successfully held in Beijing for 15 consecutive years, which has become a business card for Beijing and snooker. Ding Junhui won the championship in 2005 also added a bright color to this business card.” Wang Tao said.

At the China Open that year, Ding Junhui defeated Hendry, the “Emperor of billiards”, and won his first ranking championship, which also brought the development of Chinese billiards into the fast lane. Fifteen years later, the speed of speeding on the lane slowed down.

Wang Tao said frankly that in the past few years, China’s billiards population was about 70 million to 80 million, but at present, the choices of the masses are more diversified. According to statistics, the number of billiard halls has decreased by about 20%, and the current number of billiards population is about 50 million. “But at present, the competition system of the three billiards projects (snooker, Chinese style and 9 balls) has been completed, so the impact is relatively not very big.”

Wang Tao said that the association is also considering whether to put the China Open in a second-, third-or even fourth-tier city. “Does it accomplish the mission of a historical period? Do you want to change?”

Jiangxi held the Snooker World Open and the Chinese Billiards World Championship before TTL, where the enthusiasm of the audience left a deep impression on Wang Tao. “In TTL, the competition was full. People thought it was a very happy thing to see a professional competition. (China Open) where should such a good competition be needed by the people, where are we going to put it.”

“Zero tolerance”

before the Chinese Billiards World Championship at the beginning of the year, the Chinese Taiwan Association made a decision to add a lifetime ban to Yu Delu, who played fake balls.

In May 2018, Yu Delu was temporarily banned for gambling and was investigated. The results of the investigation were released in December, he was banned by the world professional billiards and snooker association for 10 years and 9 months for manipulating the game and getting rewards, and the additional punishment of the china taiwan association directly declared the end of his career.

“The relevant lottery is actually a legal category in Britain, but every player will sign an agreement on the day he enters the professional competition, and players and relevant people are strictly prohibited from participating.” Wang Tao revealed that there had been some small signs before. In 2016, she made a special trip to Britain to give warning education lessons to British travelers. Similar situations rarely occurred after that, but Yu Delu did not stop. “So in order to purify the environment, we will impose additional penalties for life-long ban. The problem of fake balls, gambling balls and doping should be zero tolerance in the sports industry.”

At the same time of issuing tickets, the China Taiwan Association also issued three policies: signing a joint player supervision agreement with the Taiwan Association; Establishing a professional snooker player Committee; Conducting warning education meetings before all domestic competitions.

“Ding Junhui, Liang Wenbo and Tian Pengfei are obvious clean players in the player Committee, and there are also representatives sent by the association.” Wang Tao said that the association is currently working with enterprises to set up a training institute in Sheffield, England, to integrate the players participating in professional competitions in Britain with social resources, which is both a supervision and a guarantee for their training and life.

“After Ding Junhui and Liang Wenbo, we also trained a group of players, but the small players wanted to be self-disciplined first. It is really difficult to resist temptation and loneliness and to have achievements.” Wang Tao said. The establishment of the above-mentioned Training Institute is one of the targeted measures of China Taiwan Association.

In the reform

according to wang tao’s introduction, the substantive reform of the china-taiwan association is already in progress and has now separated from the management of the small ball sports management center of the state general administration of sports, the general election will also be held in the future. “After decoupling, we will not rely on the General Administration of Sports as before, and our association needs to have a stronger sense of responsibility. Of course, after decoupling, the infrastructure construction of the association is more important, and it can absorb more social talents with ability and business knowledge to lay a solid foundation, which is a good thing for promoting billiards.”

Wang Tao revealed that the association is actively striving to enter billiards into the 2021 national games. “If billiards can really enter the next national games, it will be very helpful to the whole project.”

Regarding the next plan, Wang Tao said: “We will carry out a variety of billiards activities, to trade unions, to the folk, and even to the countryside.” She said: “Let everyone hold the competition together, bring the competition to the masses, and execute it layer by layer, so that Chinese billiards can have the second spring.”

Xinhua News Agency, Oslo, May 16, summary: Sino-Norwegian winter sports exchanges and cooperation are booming

One side has the ambition of “The competition is wonderful, and the competition will be brilliant, one side has the strong strength to win gold and silver in the Winter Olympics-ice and snow fields have become the meeting point between China and Norway, and the winter sports exchanges and cooperation between the two sides are booming.

According to the reporter’s understanding from the officials of the State Sports General Administration, in the process of preparing for the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, in order to solve the problem of the shortage of venues and talents currently faced by China’s winter sports development, especially skiing events, the General Administration of Sports insisted on opening up preparations and carried out extensive cooperation with winter sports powers such as Norway and Finland.

Since 2018, the training teams of various ice and snow projects in China have gone to Norway to train for 19 batches and 395 people. They have gone to 7 cities in Norway and hired 29 Norwegian coaches, I hope to make use of Norway’s first-class venues and coach teams to make efforts to make up for the short board in cross-country skiing, biathlon, ski jumping and northern Europe.

In the process of preparing for the war, the General Administration of Sports, while improving the level of athletes in the original winter events, also through cross-border cross-item selection, in weightlifting, gymnastics, cycling, choose potential athletes to practice Winter events in summer events such as track and field.

Zhang Bei, the director of cross-border cross-country skiing, biathlon and northern Europe of the General Administration of Sports, told reporters that one of their tasks was to find talented ones as much as possible, athletes who are likely to achieve good results in special projects will be trained. From the current point of view, the progress is very smooth. Some athletes have already shown their advantages in special projects, and good results have also appeared in some competitions.

When talking about the cooperation with Norway, Zhang Bei said that there were some differences in culture and concept between the two sides at the beginning, but in the process of cooperation, the coaches and athletes in the team often communicated with each other, the cooperation between the two sides has become more and more smooth.

Wen Ying, who is engaged in cross-country running in China, has been in Norway for nearly half a year. Through professional training with foreign coaches, her cross-country skiing skills have been greatly improved. “My goal is to train hard, to achieve better results, to work hard, to fight, to participate in the Olympic Games.” Wen Ying said.

Sun jicai, who is 1.98 meters tall, was originally a rowing athlete with prominent physical conditions. He believes that the training in Norway is more professional and closer to the specific requirements of high-level projects, and the geographical environment and coaches here can promote the team members to make faster progress.

The Norwegian coach Alier askstad of the cross-border cross-event Biathlon training team said that when training in Norway began last fall, most of the team members just started to learn skiing, but they worked hard and focused, incredible progress has been made now. If they stick to it, I believe they will achieve better results.

In addition to cross-border cross-item selection, the General Administration of Sports also actively guides social forces to participate in the development and preparation of ice and snow sports. The Xinjiang team of the national cross-country ski training team is a team jointly established by Norwegian winter outdoors sports brand SWIX and Xinjiang. In the Bird’s Nest Station competition of the International Snow Federation China Beijing cross-country skiing points Grand Prix held on March 1 this year, the team member dinigel shiramujiang won the second place in the women’s group.

Dinigel shiramujiang told reporters that it has been nearly 10 months since he came to Norway for training this time. The overall level of cross-country skiing in Norway is very high, and the team members can learn very advanced technology with the Norwegian coach. When talking about her expectations, she said: “strive to be the best, make a historic breakthrough in the Beijing Winter Olympics, and win honor for the country!”

The coach Christian Sven of the national cross-country ski training team of Xinjiang group, said that compared with Norwegian athletes, Chinese athletes are more disciplined, train very hard, and can practice repeatedly, it also has great potential. In his two years of coaching, the team members made unimaginable progress, leaving a deep impression on him.

In order to learn from Norway’s advanced skiing events development experience, the General Administration of Sport regards Norway as a key country for foreign training and preparation for the Winter Olympics. In April, 2017, the sports authorities of China and Norway signed the memorandum of understanding on sports cooperation between China and Norway. Since then, the two sides have signed implementation plans involving specific sports exchange projects one after another, among which winter project cooperation is the top priority of the plan.

Tefal, president of the Norwegian Olympic Committee, told reporters that the cooperation between the two sides in winter sports and other fields has achieved great success in recent years. Young athletes from both sides of China and Norway can get in touch with the new culture, and the level of competitive sports has also made great progress. He said that he believed that Chinese athletes would perform very well in the 2022 Winter Olympics.
