“What kind of school has cross-country skiing classes?” The answer given by Jilin City, Jilin Province is: ordinary primary and secondary schools. Since 2018, Jilin City has implemented a project to popularize ice and snow sports among primary and secondary school students. By offering skiing (alpine and cross-country) physical education classes, and setting the first week of winter vacation in primary and secondary schools as “snow vacation”, every primary and secondary school student can master at least one ice and snow sports skills. From 2018 to 2020, Jilin City has invested more than 18 million yuan in ski lessons for primary and secondary school students in urban areas, and promoted 450,000 students to participate in skiing.
General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “By holding the Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympic Games, we must promote ice and snow sports, especially snow sports in my country, better promote ice and snow sports among 300 million people, and promote the construction of a sports power.” January 12 On March 1, the State General Administration of Sports commissioned the National Bureau of Statistics to carry out a statistical survey on “driving 300 million people to participate in ice and snow sports” and released a report. Data show that since the successful bid for the Beijing Winter Olympics in 2015, the number of national residents participating in ice and snow sports has reached 346 million, and the goal of “driving 300 million people to participate in ice and snow sports” has been achieved ahead of schedule. The large number of participants shows from one aspect that the enthusiasm for ice and snow brought by the Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics not only makes people look forward to the upcoming “Ice and Snow Appointment”, but also helps the continuous promotion of ice and snow sports.
Ice and snow sports, especially skiing, have higher requirements on the venue. In the past, factors such as lack of venues, long distances, and high costs hindered the masses from skating and skiing. Therefore, to stimulate enthusiasm for ice and snow sports, we must first improve hardware facilities and strengthen venue construction. Jinchang Ski Resort, located in Tonghua City, Jilin Province, was built in 1959 and reopened to the public in December 2021 after reconstruction. Around the ski resort, there are ski museums, ice skating halls, cross-country skiing training bases and other venues built locally. A citizen said happily: “There is a ski resort on the doorstep, and it is very convenient to go to exercise.” Good sports facilities are the basis for carrying out national fitness, especially ice and snow sports. Only by finding out the needs of the masses, planning scientifically and rationally, and improving service capabilities, can we attract more people to actively participate and further promote ice and snow sports.
If the youth is strong, China will be strong, and if the sports are strong, China will be strong. To carry out ice and snow sports in an all-round way, we must start with children. The Ice and Snow Sports Teaching Guide compiled and printed by Jilin Province in 2019 requires that the lower grades participate in snowman building and roller skating, and the middle and upper grades add snowboard, ice hockey, curling and other items. From the teaching content to the teaching method, the gradient difference is reflected as the grade rises. . A physical education teacher said: “This can not only ensure the safety of children to the greatest extent, but also allow them to experience the fun of ice and snow step by step.” Whether it is promoting sports or training professional athletes, young people are indispensable new forces. To further promote “ice and snow into the campus”, not only should the pace be fast and steady, but also should open up ideas. While scientifically setting up ice and snow courses and strengthening knowledge popularization, focus on optimizing and improving ice and snow project leagues, sports and education integration, etc., and continuously smooth the selection of ice and snow professionals. aisle.
Popularizing ice and snow sports and enhancing people’s physique is the key to driving. Shan Zhaojian, the first national ski champion in New China, said: “I am more concerned about how this Winter Olympics can better promote ice and snow culture and skiing in China.” Zhou Yang, who served as a public welfare coach, to Wang Yang, a short track speed skater who independently developed skates after retiring, and Li Jianrou, who is committed to cultivating “baby ice groups”, nowadays, more and more professionals devote themselves to ice and snow sports. In the career of “helping and leading”, teaching skills, solving doubts and doubts, promoting culture, exerting the power of example, paving the way for more people to participate in ice and snow sports. Gathering all wisdom and strength, and inspiring more professional forces to invest in the promotion of ice and snow sports, will definitely help consolidate advantages, make up for shortcomings, and burn the torch of ice and snow sports.
Ice and snow sports have unique charm and broad prospects. As the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics are approaching, ice and snow sports are about to usher in a new climax. Seizing the opportunity of the Winter Olympics, promoting ice and snow sports, realizing “expanding from the south to the west, expanding to the east”, and driving the participation of the whole people, my country’s ice and snow sports will not only be able to develop, but will definitely become better and better. Chinese ice and snow, come on! (Liu Yiqing)
