Minnan. com's 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou will officially open on September 23! A few days ago, Minnan News reporter learned that five Zhangzhou athletes will participate in this grand event as members of the Chinese sports delegation!
In this Asian Games, they will participate in four major events, namely men's doubles and men's team badminton (Ou Xuanyi), women's team badminton (Han Yue), women's volleyball (Zheng Yixin), men's dragon boat (Chen Zihuan), and men's golf (Wu Ashun).
"I'm very excited to hold the match at my home and try to win a championship." On September 15, a reporter from Minnan. com contacted Ou Xuanyi, a member of the Chinese badminton team. Ou Xuanyi said: "A week ago, we came to Hangzhou in advance to prepare for training. I feel very good now.".
Born in 1994, Ou Xuanyi started to play badminton at the age of 6. Thanks to his talent and hard work, he joined the Fujian Sports Team in just four years to start his professional badminton tour. In 2017, he was officially selected into the national team.
"As soon as he came to the stadium, he was unwilling to go back and liked to study technology." In the eyes of the enlightenment coach Lin Weibin, Ou Xuanyi was a child with a clear goal, and his family also supported him in playing badminton. After entering the national team, he worked harder and slowly made achievements. In this Asian Games, Ou Xuanyi will take part in the badminton men's doubles and men's team events.
Han Yue, who is also a member of the Chinese badminton team, has just finished the 2023 China Hong Kong Open Badminton Championship, and then rushed to the Hangzhou Asian Games Village non-stop. As for the upcoming Asian Games, Han Yue told Minnan. com reporters, "This is my first time to participate in the Asian Games, and I feel very honored. I am ready!"
"Because Han Yue had poor physique when she was young, she learned badminton to improve her physique. Unexpectedly, it made her go on a professional path." Han Yiwei, Han Yue's father, said proudly. From the age of 6, Han Yue went to the badminton hall to practice every day after school, with less than 10 days of rest every year. In this way, with an unyielding tenacity, Han Yue came to Fujian badminton team in 2011 at the age of 12. Up to now, Han Yue has won the Uber Cup, the World Badminton Federation Tour and other world champions.
Reporters from Minnan Network Zhangzhou City Lin Jing, the volleyball coach of the Junior Sports School, learned that Zheng Yixin, a female volleyball player who is preparing to participate in the qualification match of women's volleyball team for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games in Beilun, Ningbo, is not available for interview. Zheng Yixin, who was born in 1995, was selected into Zhangzhou Sports School in 2006. "When she first entered the team, she felt that the child was very smart, taller than her peers, and very symmetrical." This is what Yang Xiuxia, Zheng Yixin's enlightenment coach, said about her.
"After a period of training, I found that she has a strong ability to accept, learns movements quickly, and is relatively sensitive, and has good jumping ability. She is an athlete with flexible and comprehensive skills." With her inherent advantages and hard training at ordinary times, Zheng Yixin has made rapid progress in technology. In 2009, Zheng Yixin was selected into Fujian Women's Volleyball Team. In 2015, he was selected into the national team for the first time, and won the Asian Cup in 2016, the Women's Volleyball World Cup in 2019 and many other honors with the Chinese Women's Volleyball Team!
