Playing table tennis in new ways, small swordsmen performing "ballet in combat", and the sports "food" carnival igniting the sports night economy... Just this past weekend, citizens of Shencheng entered the arena and enjoyed a sports and leisure vacation.

Xu Yinsheng called everyone to play table tennis

On September 9th, 2023, the "Industrial Bank Cup" Shanghai Urban Amateur League Table Tennis League "Li Ning · Jinshan City Beach" parent-child sand table tennis competition landed in Jinshan for the first time.

"Sports+" enriches the lives of Shanghai citizens through sand table tennis, fencing competitions, and small town football matches

Between the blue sky, white clouds, and the blue waves of Jinsha, over 200 table tennis enthusiasts from all districts of the city hold outdoor rackets and hit a specially designed 44mm ball on an iron table, enjoying the fun of outdoor table tennis to the fullest.

The parent-child sand table tennis competition is both fun and challenging. In collaboration with the China Table Tennis Museum, three fun table tennis games were set up during the break of the competition, allowing parent-child families to experience an alternative table tennis game.

A participating parent said, "The beach can give people a feeling of vacation and leisure, so playing table tennis on the sand weakens the competitive atmosphere and is more like a weekend entertainment activity for a family." Bathed in the sunshine, playing ball, the children had a lot of fun, working together with their parents to complete fun games, and their sports shoes were filled with fine sand without any concern.

Sand table tennis breaks the limitations of traditional table tennis on the field, equipment, and other aspects, providing table tennis enthusiasts with more choices. Xu Yinsheng, the lifetime honorary chairman of the International Table Tennis Federation, dressed in casual attire and actively promoted sand table tennis. "Table tennis is both competitive and entertaining. Making it bigger makes it easier to play and can increase everyone's interest in participating. Sand table tennis is fun and loved by both adults and children."

According to the organizer, this competition aims to promote family harmony, enhance emotional communication among family members, and care for the physical and mental health of children. Due to the integration of blue sky, sea, beach, and table tennis elements, it attracted the attention of many families, and the competition spots were quickly snatched up.

To provide a higher level of competition supply and meet the diverse needs of the population, the Shanghai Table Tennis Association will focus on creating the Jinshan Beach Table Tennis Carnival event, allowing more enthusiasts with demand to participate. Jinshan District will also introduce more sports projects through the resources of urban beaches, promoting the integrated development of "sports+".

Handsome "Little Swordsman" competes fiercely

A tall figure, agile skills, and appropriate speech are all excellent qualities that can be felt in this delightful youth competition. From September 8th to 10th, the 2023 Shanghai Youth Fencing Championships and Shanghai Youth Sports Elite Series Fencing Competition Finals were held, with over 900 athletes from the city participating in the competition.

The number of participants this year has increased compared to previous years, covering 16 districts in the city. The competition includes foil, epee, and sabre, with age groups A, B, C, D, and E. The youngest participant is 8 years old.

In the competition, fencers wear white clothes and their straight bodies instantly make chopping and stabbing movements. Each fencer has a unique swordsmanship style, which can be as sharp as a sword, as calm as a mountain, or as agile as water.

Fencing, known as the "ballet of combat," has gradually become the preferred sport for young people in Shanghai due to its elegant and agile technical movements, independent and tenacious fighting spirit, as well as advantages in physical training and shaping.

Mr. Yan rushed from Fengxian to see off his daughter for the competition. He told reporters that his daughter started learning fencing three years ago and loves it very much. She usually trains at the club once a week. "This is the highest level competition in the city, let her compare with her peers and find the gap."

In recent years, the development of youth fencing in Shanghai has been relatively rapid, with the number of fencers increasing year by year. Currently, there are nearly 4000 registered athletes in Shanghai, and the number of coaches and managers in the industry has also reached nearly a thousand. In the past two years, fencing clubs have been established in districts such as Fengxian, Jinshan, and Chongming, and the popularity of the projects has continued to expand.

As the highest level youth fencing competition in Shanghai, the annual Youth Fencing Championships attract numerous players to participate. The organizer will also organize a team of experts to observe the competition and select more high-quality reserve talents for competitive sports in Shanghai.
