The essence of the team competition is mass competition, because there are so many people participating! Elites alone cannot survive. Of course, elites will also be involved. But the subject is the masses.
Team racing is a very desirable form of competition for the masses and public rewards for road running competitions.
In all the running competitions in the country, there are not many team races included in the competition. In Hainan, only the Danzhou Marathon had this event before. The Wanning Half Marathon in previous years has also been used, but it has not improved much. Now the Ledong 10km Beach Race can design the team race, which is an excellent phenomenon.
Comparing Ledong's team rules with Danma's team rules is conducive to promoting the progress of team competitions.
Ledong's scale is relatively small, and the practice of using team competitions as a competition item is worth promoting. Regardless of the size of the event, as far as possible to include the mass competition project, in order to stimulate public participation and quickly expand the scale of the event.
Most of the rewards for team competitions are separated from individual awards, that is, in competitions with team competitions, a considerable number of players can win double prizes: individual prize + team prize.
This feature of Danma is one of the reasons for the surge in its influence.
The scale of Danma is much larger than that of Ledong. Danma rewards 20 groups, Ledong rewards 15 groups, and Ledong does not lose danma.
The first prize money in the Danma team competition is 8,000 yuan, Ledong is 5,000 yuan, and Ledong does not lose danma.
Both companies took the result of 10 players, and the team size was the same.
However, the cumulative results of the 10 players varied. At least one of the 10 results scored by Danma requires at least one woman to score. Ledong does not have this requirement, that is, there are no women's grades.
Ledong's rule is stated: "The team results are the top 10 according to the team's best results".
Danma is designed according to the proportion of male and female players, requiring the performance of a female player, in part because the female players are not wanted to be absent. This guiding ideology is correct. Team competitions without women's participation are crippled team competitions.
And Ledong's rules really make female players absent. Because there is a difference between men and women in terms of physical fitness, men and women are superior to absolute results (competition results), and women are of course too disadvantaged. This is to exclude female players. This is clearly unreasonable.
The design of the male-female ratio of the Danma team race is not very reasonable, but the large number of women absent from the Ledong team race is very unreasonable.
The design of the male-female ratio of Danma team competitions should be developed in a more reasonable direction, such as the performance of female players is reduced by 30 minutes, so that more female players can compete and participate in order to make it more reasonable; the total score of the team is calculated using relative results, giving all male and female players full equal rights to participate and compete.
Ledong team competition is still the initial stage of team competition, starting from equality between men and women.
