Liu Jun, executive vice chairman and secretary general of the Beijing Football Association: two "forty" to welcome the Hundred Teams Cup

"In order to realize the children's dreams, adhere to a new heart." Liu Jun summed up the original intention of the Hundred Teams Cup football match. This year's 100 Teams Cup is different from the past, because of the need for epidemic prevention, it is no longer a summer vacation tournament. In September, the five-a-side competition was held, the eleventh holiday was held in the eight-a-side competition, and the 38th Hundred Teams Cup Football Tournament in Beijing was successfully concluded.

This year's rematch is more difficult than last year's, and this year's five-a-side and eight-a-side tournaments are held in phases. Athletes, coaches, service support personnel, referees, security, ambulance, field workers, volunteers and FA staff are required to complete two nucleic acid tests. Some teams reported that there was no time to do nucleic acid testing, and the organizers adjusted the game from September 11 to September 12, setting aside a day on Saturday to provide centralized nucleic acid testing for each team, and also organized 3 nucleic acid testing locations to facilitate everyone to do testing. In terms of venues, red, yellow and blue areas are set up, and the competition process is sorted out in strict accordance with the epidemic prevention policy, including the entry flow of the team members, and the field place should provide epidemic prevention materials, including disinfectants in the toilet. In addition, the organizer invited experts from the Beijing Municipal Center for Epidemic Prevention and Control to the scene for guidance, check whether the epidemic prevention measures are in place, and the experts immediately rectified after giving their opinions. Safety is the top priority and the premise of the 100-team Cup.

This year's 100 Teams Cup is already the 38th, the 2023 100 Teams Cup will usher in the 40th, and 2024 is the 40th anniversary of the 100 Teams Cup. On the occasion of the arrival of the two "forty", a series of commemorative activities will be held to let the participants of the previous 100 teams cup inherit the 100 team cup. The Beijing Football Association and the Beijing Evening News will work together with the big children and children participating in the Hundred Teams Cup to celebrate the 40th birthday of the Hundred Teams Cup.
