As the naming sponsor of CUFA this season, Adidas not only brought David Beckham, Zidane and other superstars to Chinese college football, but also brought CUFA Campus Day activities together with Ali Sports, so far this season, three games have been held in Sichuan University, South China University of Technology and Tongji University.

For the first time this season, CUFA implemented the main and away game system of the league in the 16th to 8th stages. Traditional football strong schools such as Tongji University, Taiyuan University of Technology University and Beijing Institute of Technology all joined the home ranks.

A total of 27000 students came to the stadium in 16 matches, among which Central South University and Ningbo University attracted 5,000 spectators, at the home court of Xi’an University of Finance and Economics, Shanghai University of Technology, Taiyuan University of Technology home court and Beijing University of Technology, the number of audience on the scene is also around 3,000.

Wei Quanquan, vice president, said that this season, whether CUBA or CUFA, alibaba Sports’s greatest effort is to link various Alibaba ecological resources to expand the influence of these two major campus events. While advocating a healthy and happy lifestyle for college students, it empowers partners, let each “and the stronger” help Chinese campus sports inject more energy.
