Should be fully opened! These sports venues are fully utilized, and there are more options for national fitness heritage. At this moment | Universiade | Venues
On August 8th, the Chengdu Universiade came to a successful conclusion. This sports event, which brings together the world's youth, not only injects more youthful vitality into Chengdu, but also keeps people's enthusiasm for sports continuously rising. The Executive Committee of the Universiade once specifically mentioned a data from media statistics in 2020: for the first time, Chengdu people's attention to sports surpassed that of mahjong, and their favorite sports event, basketball, surpassed that of hotpot.
Chengdu Citizen Long Cheng: This used to be the venue for the Universiade, but now it has reopened. I feel very happy to come back here to exercise because the environment and facilities here are very good, and there are also many friends playing basketball together here, so I can enjoy the fun.
Chengdu citizen Li Junlong: The environment here is particularly good, not as bustling and noisy as in the city. You can calm down and slowly practice Tai Chi here.
During the game, Xiangcheng Sports Center undertakes basketball training and water polo competitions. After a brief renovation and refurbishment, the race was quickly opened to the public. At this point, the venue is no longer a high-level competitive scene that is tense and exciting during the competition. People living in the surrounding area can exercise in the high-quality arena.
Chengdu citizen Huang Forest: My home and company are both nearby and I often exercise here. Isn't it the Universiade recently? We, as citizens of Chengdu, will host the Universiade. Now that the Universiade is over, we can schedule meetings with our colleagues here every Thursday to exercise. You need to make an appointment two days in advance to be able to book the venue, and the cost will be evenly spread out for about ten yuan, which will allow you to exercise for about two hours.
In fact, the Universiade venues are the most obvious sports heritage left by the Chengdu Universiade to the city. Among the 49 competition venues, except for 13 newly built venues, the rest are renovated venues. At this moment, the venues of the Universiade should be fully opened and utilized, and efforts should be made to increase the number of days open to the public for free or low fees, so that more people can share the achievements of the Universiade.
Hao Kun, Deputy Manager of Operations at the Martial Arts Venue Center of Chengbei Sports Center: Chengbei Sports Center has always been an important venue for national fitness in Chengbei. After the competition, the venue was promptly returned to the public. Currently, the competition venue has basically returned to its previous state, and it will continue to undertake large-scale international events such as the World Sports Dance Festival.
This summer, it is not just the Universiade venues that should be fully opened and utilized. The summer vacation is already halfway through, but the sports field of a primary school in Nanchang, Jiangxi is very lively. Running, jumping, and shooting on the basketball court, and walking back and forth on the badminton court, are not students, but the surrounding residents.
Nanchang citizen Yuan Yang: My home lives nearby and it takes about five or six minutes to ride an electric bike over. For example, if we play play badminton or basketball, we can save a lot of money in the long run. If there are people with children, they can come over at night and exercise with them.
Zhang Yu, Executive Principal of Yuquandao Campus of Nanchang Normal Affiliated Experimental Primary School Education Group: Under the overall arrangement of the Municipal Education Bureau, we have opened our sports venues to the surrounding people for free, and the response is enthusiastic. So far, we have registered over 100 households, and every day, dozens of parents bring their children to our venue to exercise, which is also in response to the call of the national sports movement. During the summer vacation, our school's facilities have also been fully utilized. Every morning and evening, parents and nearby residents can run and play ball here, which has also promoted the sports and health awareness of the surrounding population. I think this is very meaningful and valuable, and it also fulfills the social responsibility and obligation that our school should fulfill.
Just before this year's National Fitness Day, the Education Bureau of Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, announced that it will further urge the sports venues in 32 campuses of 24 bureau affiliated primary and secondary schools to be opened to the public, and will be criticized for not being able to open them. In fact, in recent years, many places have attempted to open their school gates and allow more people to share sports venue resources on campus. However, in the specific practice process, due to unclear boundaries of rights and responsibilities, increased management costs, and other factors, the enthusiasm of schools to share has been affected to some extent. With the increasing consensus of the whole society on national fitness, it is necessary to maximize the utilization of high-quality sports resources and orderly open campus sports facilities in a step-by-step manner. More problem-solving ideas are needed.
Li Daoyi, Director of the Sports, Health and Arts Department of the Education Bureau of Nanchang City: Since the summer vacation this year, most schools in the entire urban area of Nanchang, including city schools, have been open according to requirements. However, some schools may not appear as proactive due to their construction, while others may face campus safety issues. Overall, the situation is still good. Next, as school leaders, we should not have any fear of difficulties. Through the government, how can we provide certain funds as a guarantee to introduce third-party operations, which will last longer.
