From April 11th to 14th, the Shaoxing Youth Taekwondo Championship was held in Baiguan Middle School of Shichu Group. 227 athletes from various counties (urban areas) of Shaoxing City competed on the same stage. In a competition of 46 levels in the eight groups of men's and women's A, B, C, D, the high-spirited taekwondo players sweated and shone their youthful demeanor.
According to reports, the competition was hosted by the Shaoxing Sports Bureau and the Shaoxing Education Bureau, undertaken by the Shangyu District Education and Sports Bureau, and operated by Shangyu Hongxu Education and Sports Information Consulting Co., Ltd. The competition adopts the latest "Taekwondo Competition Rules" promulgated by the Chinese Taekwondo Association, and adopts the individual competition and single-elimination system. Before the competition, all the contestants also took three physical fitness tests: standing long jump, 60-meter run, and 30-second double fly, which were included in the competition results.
On the field, the athletes of each team played one by one with the momentum of fighting on the field, showing solid basic skills and strong competitive level. They make good use of a variety of leg skills, such as forward kicks, back kicks, horizontal kicks or spin kicks, to engage in fighting and confrontation, and their movements are strong and powerful. The players worked the field, and the coach kept an eye on the field, changing strategies in real time, and the atmosphere was tense and enthusiastic.
"Hey, hey, ha!" "Attack, don't retreat!". The shouts of the contestants in the stadium and the passionate roars of the coaches are closely intertwined, "Good, beautiful!" accompanied by the shouts, the athletes in blue protective gear gave a beautiful slalom kick, giving people a strong visual impact.
In the annual junior taekwondo championships, some are young players who stand on the field for the first time, and some are experienced veterans. Yang Yuqing of the Shangyu District team is a rising star in this competition. She participated in the Municipal Youth Championships for the first time and finally won the gold medal in the women's D group 35kg. "Taekwondo is like that, it's hard to say if you win or lose until the last minute. Just work hard and fight for honor!" the little girl smiled.
For 12-year-old Chen Jinglong, compared to chasing after victory, the reversal of defeat in the game can make him more enthusiastic. He is still only a sixth-grade elementary school student, and he still has a long way to go, "Learning taekwondo is also one more skill, and I am trying to go in this direction, hoping to take the professional route." ”
After a competition, the Shangyu District team won the medal table and the team total score double. The Keqiao District team and the Zhuji City team ranked second and third in the total score of the group. In addition, the Xinchang County team and the Shengzhou City team won the Sports Ethics Award.
"Taekwondo, as a highly competitive sport, needs to test the results of daily training through competitions. During the competition, the young players can also feel the sportsmanship of not giving up and fighting bravely, which cannot be brought by ordinary training. According to the relevant person in charge of the event, in recent years, all counties and cities in Shaoxing have attached great importance to and promoted the development of taekwondo, and vigorously promoted taekwondo for teenagers and children. The Municipal Youth Taekwondo Championship is not only a grand event to promote the development of youth taekwondo in the city, but also creates a good opportunity for the city's county and urban teams to meet friends, increase friendship and exchange and develop through competition.
It is worth mentioning that the Shangyu taekwondo project started in the 90s of the last century, and with the hard work of generations of athletes and coaches, it has now developed into one of the fist projects of youth competitive sports in Shangyu District, sending a large number of outstanding talents to the provincial team and the national team, and has achieved good performance in the provincial, national and world arenas. The team adheres to the "five pipes" training concept of "learning and thinking, training, life and competition", focusing on the all-round development of students' morality, intelligence, physical fitness, art and labor.
