On the other hand, some major and special ball games have long competition periods. Football is relatively popular, with a large number of registered delegations, as well as two sub events: women's and men's football. Considering the number of venues and the need for group and knockout matches, in most cases, group matches will be held before the opening ceremony. The Women's and Men's World Cups, which have the top 32 teams participating, have a total duration of about 30 days and no less than 8 stadiums. The football competition of the Hangzhou Asian Games started as early as September 19th and is one of the earliest events of the Hangzhou Asian Games.
The ball events for the preliminary round on the 19th include cricket and volleyball. Overall, most ball games require group stage matches. If there are multiple groups, combined with venue and layout factors, the competition period of the entire project will be extended.
