Strengthen confidence and inspire spirit – Guoyu held a mobilization meeting for winter training – State Sports General Administration of the People’s Republic of China

On December 4, the national badminton team held a 2023 winter training mobilization meeting at the Temple of Heaven Apartment in Beijing. The meeting pointed out that we must adhere to the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, follow the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important expositions and important instructions on sports work as the fundamental basis, and actively implement the instructions of the Party Group of the State Sports General Administration to do a solid job in winter training and prepare for competitions. According to the relevant requirements of the work, we should further unify our thinking, strengthen our confidence, inspire our spirits, use high standards and practical measures to complete this year’s winter training work, sound the charge to win the Paris Olympics, and go all out to prepare for the Paris Olympics training.

The meeting conveyed a series of instructions and requirements from Gao Zhidan, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Director of the State Sports General Administration, on this year’s winter training work and preparations for the Paris Olympics. Zhang Jun, chairman of the Chinese Badminton Association, said that the entire team must study hard and fully implement it in preparations.

A systematic review of 2023 shows that the national badminton team has achieved certain results in the Sudirman Cup and the Asian Games, but its losses in competitions such as this year’s World Championships have also exposed several problems. Regarding this year’s winter training, Zhang Jun put forward requirements to the whole team. During the winter training, the word “ruthless” should be at the forefront, and the whole process should be centered around the word “practical”. The preparations should be more targeted, the mental outlook should be highlighted, injury and disease prevention should be done well, and the management level should be improved. .

Yang Xinli, director of the Table Tennis and Badminton Center of the State Sports General Administration, said that winter training is a particularly valuable and valuable preparation experience that has been formed over a long period of time on the sports front in our country. I hope everyone can use winter training to strengthen their physical fitness, make up for shortcomings, and solve problems. There are still 235 days until the Paris Olympics. I hope the whole team can make the best preparations, work together with the highest spirit, practice winter training well, and prepare well for the Paris Olympics.

The convening of this winter training mobilization meeting has added motivation and confidence to the team members. “During the winter training period, my partner and I will work more actively together to improve our technical and tactical skills and better advance our training,” said mixed doubles Olympic champion Huang Dongping.
