The Provincial Games reported the Chengdu Sports delegation to win the first gold

This morning, the 14th Games of Sichuan Province welcomed the first competition of the Youth Group in Leshan Olympic Sports Center -diving. In the five -meter competition for women's doubles, Lai Wenyue and Zhou Zijun combined the first gold of the Chengdu Sports delegation with a total score of 162, and obtained the opening of the Provincial Games.

It is understood that Lai Wenyue is 12 years old and comes from Shuanglin Primary School; Zhou Zijun is 11 years old and from Xi'an Road Primary School. The two have been practicing diving for more than 3 years, but the time to partner together is only a few months. After getting the gold medal, the two also felt particularly happy, and felt that the training finally achieved results for so long. Don't look at the age of the two little girls, but the requirements for themselves are particularly high. They still feel that they are not "perfect" for their performance. "The two actions of 101 and 401 were not done well, and did not show the level of usual training." Lai Wenyue felt a little regretful. In fact, the two of them worked very hard in normal training and kept the rhythm of "Saturday practice", with more than 100 diving times a day. Speaking of the next goal, the two little girls are very determined: "We must do our best in training and competition, do the best ourselves, and strive to achieve better results."

Winning Shoujin is of great significance for Chengdu Sports delegation! You know, this is also the first gold medal won by the Chengdu Sports delegation since participating in the Provincial Games.

According to Cui Zhijie, director of the Chengdu Water Sports Center, diving is the project captured by the Water Sports Center in recent years, which can fully show the characteristics of the "small fast spirit" of Chengdu athletes. "In 2017, in the swimming pool of Mengwan Bay, we have our own diving hall, which provides a hardware basic guarantee for accelerating the development of the city's diving campaign and systematic cultivation." The goal is the gold medal. To this end, both athletes, coaches and logistical supporters have made great efforts. "From the selection of athletes, to the training of scientific systems, the development of diving projects has entered a virtuous circle." Cui Zhijie said that the construction of the diving echelon of the current water sports center is very complete, and high -quality athletes in all ages are rich in reserves. The diving to win the first gold will also help establish confidence for more Chengdu parents and small athletes, enthusiastically join the diving team, and further expand the sports population.

It is reported that before the opening ceremony of the Provincial Games on August 8th, more than 40 competitions for mass and youth categories will start in Leshan District (city, county). After the start of the juvenile diving project of the Provincial Games, it will last 4 days and end until the 23rd. In the next competition, the diving team of Chengdu Sports delegation will continue to launch an impact on the gold medal.
