As the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon is approaching, the children in the Maojiawan Resettlement Area in Ludian County ushered in the long-awaited winter vacation. The relocation and resettlement area, the second largest in the country and the largest number of poor households, is ushering in a series of gratifying changes, with the newly completed Jingxin Community and Yulu Community Sports Venues providing local residents with a richer cultural and sports life.
Although the two new community sports venues are located in different residential areas, they are both equipped with high-standard basketball courts and plastic materials on the ground, which are beautiful and practical. The lines on the field are clear and distinct, demarcating the space for the game. The basketball hoop is tall and sturdy, waiting for the challenge of the local players, and you can feel the strong sports atmosphere when watching the basketball games of the citizens here. It is worth mentioning that in addition to the standard basketball courts, the two community sports venues are also equipped with seats and sports equipment for citizens next to the courts.

"Goals" and "scores", the running sound of young players, the bouncing sound of basketball, and the cheers of the audience are intertwined, as if playing a dynamic and passionate movement of rural revitalization in the new era.
These two community sports venues, which have been long-awaited and praised by local citizens, were built by Putuo District to guide caring enterprises to invest in assistance funds.

"In the past three years, residents here have improved their livelihood services, such as party and mass services, medical services, and education services, but the first and second most populous communities in the resettlement area add up to nearly 20,000 people, and they have a common aspiration to build an outdoor public sports venue. Xu Xiong, a cadre of Putuo District, a member of the Standing Committee of the Ludian County Party Committee and deputy county magistrate, said that an outdoor public place can not only allow children to exercise and enhance their physique, reduce the time of "staying" at home, but also bring a space for the local area to carry out mass activities.

To this end, the cadres of Putuo District have conducted in-depth research, accurately matched local needs, and formulated practical assistance measures. Under the coordination of the United Front Work Department of the Putuo District Party Committee, the Putuo District Overseas Chinese Business Federation, the Putuo Branch of the European and American Returned Scholars Association and a number of caring enterprises have reached out to support the construction of community sports venues by donating social funds.
"The project was approved in the second quarter, started in the third quarter, and was delivered to the local people in the fourth quarter, which is also a New Year's health gift package for local residents. Xie Yi, a cadre of Putuo District and deputy director of the Ludian County Rural Revitalization Bureau, said with a smile.

Xiong Juan, director of the Yanchi Sub-district Office in Ludian County, said in an interview: "In the past, our work focused mainly on basic livelihood security, and the construction of cultural, sports and leisure facilities lagged behind. ”
It is reported that during the Spring Festival this year, the two residential areas will also hold cultural and sports activities such as "village BA" (village-level basketball games). A series of exciting basketball games will be staged at the doorstep of the home, bringing a different holiday experience to the residents.

In recent years, under the background of Shanghai-Yunnan cooperation, Putuo District's support for the Maojiawan resettlement area has been increasing. From solving the difficulty of seeking medical treatment to promoting employment, the assistance work in Putuo District has always been closely related to the actual needs of local residents and has achieved remarkable results. Looking forward to the future, Putuo District will continue to deepen the assistance to the Maojiawan Resettlement Area in Ludian County, invest real money and sincerely help, send more resources, help the relocated residents achieve the "double improvement" of material and spiritual and cultural life, and jointly write a new chapter in Shanghai-Yunnan cooperation in the new era.
