On November 6, the 2018 winter training mobilization meeting of Henan Sports Bureau was held in Zhengzhou. This means that the winter training Assembly has already sounded, and the Golden training period for preparing for the next three-year competition, including the Tokyo Olympic Games, officially kicked off.
In the next three years, the second National Youth Games in 2019, the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2020 and the Xi’an National Games in 2021 will be followed by various competitions. Judging from the situation in the past year, athletes in our province have achieved some good results, winning 5 world championships, breaking 1 world record and 11 Asian champions. In the highest level competition in the country, it won 26 gold medals, 19 silver medals and 22 bronze medals in the National Games. In addition, 33 athletes represented Henan in the 18th Jakarta Asian Games and won 9 gold medals, 7 silver medals and 3 bronze medals.
Although the achievements are remarkable, the situation is not optimistic. Ma Yufeng, deputy director of Henan Sports Bureau, introduced to dahebao Dahe client reporter: “Among the projects that won gold medals, some projects have low gold content. Although potential projects have made progress, the strength gap is obvious, the thickness of the young players is not enough, and the strength is not enough.”
In addition, the competition in the external environment of Henan is also very fierce. Shandong, Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu have absolute advantages in some projects. Hebei will take the 2022 Winter Olympics as an opportunity to comprehensively enhance its competitiveness, shaanxi and Shanxi took advantage of the opportunity of hosting the National Games and the second youth games respectively to promote new breakthroughs. Hubei, Hunan and Sichuan are also creating new gold medal growth points.
Ma Yufeng said: “The key of winter training is to solve the problem. The training without solving the problem, even if it looks vigorous, is actually a superficial phenomenon, which is false prosperity. Remember one sentence: all the problems encountered in the competition are problems that have not been practiced and have not been practiced well.”
