The first Asian U16 Women's Volleyball Championship in Hangzhou is showcasing exciting matches in batches at four venues in three cities: Hangzhou, Huzhou, and Shaoxing. As an important test event for the volleyball event at the Hangzhou Asian Games, this tournament will also be tested in all venues according to the standard requirements of the Asian Games during the competition. The reporter found that some old venues have undergone "minor renovations" to rejuvenate "new vitality".
On July 3rd, the Chinese U16 women's volleyball national team arrived at the Deqing Sports Center Gymnasium in Huzhou. After a simple familiarization with the venue, the team members immediately immersed themselves in the tense and orderly pre match training. The Deqing Sports Center Sports Center in front of us has hosted the 2015-2019 Chinese Professional Volleyball League and the 2017 National Games Men's Volleyball Preliminary. But as the competition venue for the volleyball event at the Hangzhou Asian Games, the sports floor, sound reinforcement system, lighting system, etc. in the venue have been upgraded and renovated to fully benchmark against the Asian Games standards.
Coach Liu Xiaotong of the Chinese U16 women's volleyball national team: From the overall construction and current layout of this venue, in my impression, it is very good. It can be seen that everyone's support is also very thoughtful.
The China Textile City Sports Center Gymnasium, located in Keqiao District, Shaoxing, was originally a basketball venue. Considering that volleyball requires occasional head up spiking and serving movements, the sunlight can be quite dazzling. During the renovation, a layer of black film cloth was added to the dome.
Zhu Junlian, a staff member of the Shaoxing Keqiao division of the first Asian U16 Women's Volleyball Championships in Hangzhou, said: In the past, there was light transmission on the top because during volleyball matches, it had an upward movement, and even when we looked up, it couldn't have light. Therefore, when we renovated it later, we pasted film on it all.
The renovated China Textile City Sports Center Gymnasium can be seen everywhere with different types of standard clocks, all of which use the time scale signal in the Beidou system as the standard time source, ensuring an error of 1 millisecond within 72 hours. At the entrance and exit of athletes, the reporter found that the "cardless facial recognition system" makes it more orderly and convenient for athletes to enter the venue.
