As the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games draw to a close, Paralympic athletes from all over the world who have finished their schedules have begun to return one after another. In the Winter Paralympic Village and in various venues, people see elbows again and again to say goodbye, hear a goodbye, and rely on other scenes to make people move. Everyone said that what is nostalgic is not only the struggle on the field, but also the warm memories outside the arena.
The Czech Paralympic ice hockey team was ready to go, and the players presented the volunteers with signed jerseys, caps and team badges. Near the time of parting, everyone still did not want to get on the bus for a long time.
Czech Paralympic Ice Hockey Team Manager Krakovikova: I really don't want to say goodbye, all of our players had a great time here. All the volunteers have given us the best service, the best support, the best companionship, we feel like home here, I hope our friendship can continue, and we welcome everyone to go to our hometown.
A few days ago, the Czech team's Václav Hedgčko celebrated his 27th birthday at the Winter Paralympic Games, and just after leaving the stadium, the corridors of the locker room were filled with birthday songs sung by volunteers, as well as cake shapes stacked with ice balls, and blessings from the melting snow.
Czech Paralympic ice hockey team player Vaclav Hučko: For the first time in my life, I was so excited to receive such a courtesy, which I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you guys, thank you very much. It is a pleasure to come to China, the people and volunteers here are very friendly, thank you China.
Thoughtful details, and that's not all. Potato chips should be original, drinks should be sugar-free, and in the Winter Olympic Village, on the walls of the athletes' pantries of various venues, the preferences of each team are clearly recorded on a note.
Italian Paralympic ice hockey team player Andrea Alex: All the volunteers put themselves in our shoes and think about it, that's the real intimacy.
Croatian Paralympic cross-country skier Josipzima: It's very good, whether it's the Winter Olympic village or the surrounding environment, it's very nice, and then the track is also very good. I'll miss it here in the future, and if I get the chance, I'd like to come back here and skate a few more times on this track.
There are more than 9,000 volunteers in this Winter Paralympic Games, providing support services such as events, transportation, and media, who leave warmth and excitement for the world.
Head of the Romanian Winter Paralympic delegation Chipri ann settled: The volunteers here do a great job, they message me in advance, they communicate in advance, they can help me with all my work.
Canadian Paralympic biathlete Britany Herdaq: Everyone is fighting for the same goals, seeing people from different countries coming together, everyone trying their best to play at their best level, and seeing more competitors, this is the embodiment of the spirit of the Winter Paralympics.
Volunteers say that busyness is the key word this spring, but this special experience will bring them the spiritual strength they will never forget.
Zhang Honglin, volunteer of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games: Athletes are not crushed by the impact of physical mutilation on their lives, they are still working very hard and doing a lot of things that we can't do. Some athletes are overturned and then stood up again and again, overturned and stood up again, and this spirit of not giving up and working hard also brought me great spiritual strength. This is also the biggest gain in our entire volunteer service.
