From the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games to win the Chinese men's diving Olympic first gold, Chaoshan athlete Sun Shuwei, to the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games bravely won the two golds in Shantou, Xie Sizhen, and the Zhanjiang girl who made five jumps and three full points. Cultivated 11 Olympic champions, 7 of them came from Chaoshan and Zhanjiang. Shantou and Zhanjiang, located on the ends of eastern Guangdong and western Guangdong, supported half of Guangdong's diving.

From west to east, from Zhanjiang to Shantou, it spans nearly 1,000 kilometers. The two Guangdong cities are like a pair of wings. For decades, they have led Guangdong and even Chinese diving sports to fly high and flourish! Long history, profound heritage, policies, natural advantages, team inheritance ... Let this sport is flourishing in the two places, and the key project status has a strong gold soup, writing a legendary story.

Zhanjiang

Several generations of inheritance, the prosperity continues

It is surrounded by the sea on three sides. It has the second long coastline in the country. It is the most prominent geographical environment of Zhanjiang. The unique geographical location has created a good environment for the development of the water movement of Zhanjiang, and also created the sense of intimacy of the Zhanjiang people to be born with water, so that the diving motion can take root here. Modern competitive diving was introduced to our country in the early last century as other European and American sports. In the 1930s, a series of western modern sports projects were introduced by Western schools in the old French Concession, and the style of "western school gradual" was scratched in Zhanjiang. In 1935, the birth of the first Sports Association in Zhanjiang History, the birth of the Chican Sports Association, allowed the owner of the fish pond to see the enthusiasm of the citizens participating in sports, and rebuilt the fish pond on the sea of ​​Chikan into a swimming pool. The name "Chikan Swimming Shed" has been circulating, and it is still a household name in Zhanjiang.

During the "swimming shed" more than 80 years of joint memories of Zhanjiang people, diving sports have been prosperous on this land. In the 1950s and 1960s, there were more than 10 standard ten -meter platform venues in Zhanjiang, including the venues of the cities and counties such as Leizhou, Xuwen, Wuchuan, etc., as well as two training grounds built by the South China Sea fleet stationed in Zhanjiang. The training facilities laid a solid foundation for the cultivation of athletes, allowing Luxembourg and Lan Rong to open up and inherit the first generation of Zhanjiang diving sports athletes.

In 1955, at the Guangdong Swimming Division of Chikan Swimming P poar, the host Zhanjiang team won 14 gold in one fell swoop and won the top three of the women's springboard. In 1963, Zheng Guanzhi, known as "Guangdong diving godmother", and Huang Xiuni, a teammate Huang Xiuni, won the women's platform and women's springboard runner -up at the World Emerging Power Games held in Jakarta. Moved to the screen by the Changchun Film Studio and filmed as the film "Women's Diving Member". It was swept through the country.

If Zheng Guanzhi and Huang Xiuni's feat first brought Zhanjiang diving into the international sight for the first time, Xu Yiming, who was later known as the "father of modern diving technology", really established Zhanjiang's position in the diving hall. When he was young, Xu Yiming, who was awarded the national men's platform championship in the country, was awarded more than 30 world championships in his time as the head coach of the Chinese National Diving Team. The "International Diving Coach Manual" written by him is still regarded as Gui. After him, Zhanjiang also emerged excellent coaches such as Wu Guo Village, Chen Wenbo, Lin Xiaoni, Zhong Quansheng. They paid the dedication to diving campaigns, so that Athlean, He Chong, Quan Hongyu and other athletes were step by step to the Olympic Games. Writing belongs to the legend of Guangdong diving.

Congenital conditions, uniqueness

The reasons for the flourishing development of diving sports in Zhanjiang, and the former director of Zhanjiang Sports Bureau, who has dedicated the sports industry for a lifetime, had a stomach. In his opinion, in addition to human factors, the unique natural conditions also provide a good soil for the roots of diving in Zhanjiang.

Zhanjiang is located at 21.2 degrees north latitude and belongs to tropical areas south of the north. The average temperature in winter is 16 ° C-23 ° C. Therefore, it will not affect diving training due to too cold in winter. In addition , Attracted many northern teams as the destination of winter training. Teams from all over the country are gathered here, allowing different technologies and experiences to integrated here, so that Zhanjiang diving athletes can adopt hundreds of them.

The tropical climate of Binhai brings Zhanjiang more than just the weather conditions suitable for training. The soil and soil it created makes Zhanjiang people seem to be suitable for diving. Compared with the Pearl River Delta region, Zhanjiang may be slightly insufficient in terms of material conditions, but it is the so -called "relying on the sea to eat the sea" and fishery as one of the important industries.

During the selection of diving exercises, most athletes were incorporated into the coach's vision around 5 years old. Body conditions such as body contour, height, leg muscles, and joint flexibility are important reference indicators. On the one hand, Zhanjiang people are more suitable for diving projects. On the other hand, the life of coastal fishing villages also gives children the explosiveness and bouncing power of children. In terms of coaches, there is no shortage of good seedlings here. Coaches from Zhanjiang Diving Sports School and Zhanjiang Sports School will go to subordinate districts and counties every year, and even town -level schools and kindergartens to select talents. Of course, all this is inseparable from the strong support of local sports authorities and education departments. As a Chikan swimming pool, which was once recalled by Zhanjiang people, it has become part of the campus campus campus campus in Zhanjiang City in 2013. Lauli and He Chong started her diving career here. However, compared with then, the hardware conditions of diving schools today have been greatly improved. The construction of indoor constant temperature swimming pools has changed the dilemma of past outdoor training to see the weather, and land training facilities are also directly arranged within the campus. In order to dispel parents 'concerns, the diving school does not require training, teaching, accommodation and boarding. Except for daily training and weekend training, students' clothing, food, housing, and transportation and the most valued cultural education that are most valued by parents cannot help the school. Responsible.

It is undeniable that diving training is very difficult, but for many parents, making children become athletes is a good choice to change their children's destiny. Nowadays, parents pay more attention to cultural achievements, while material conditions become more abundant, many athletes no longer endure hardships and hardworking. Faced with the changes in this environment, Zhanjiang Diving School also placed the athlete's cultural class first, and put the athletes in a cooperative school. The class hours on the working day did not arrange training. President Xie Fumin Xie Fumin was very very good at working days. Proudly stated that their students' pass rate in the new cultural examination of the Provincial Games ranked among the best in the team. In order to make up for the lack of training, the athletes of the diving school must be trained all day on holidays, even during the Spring Festival.

However, the construction of the coach team also made President Xie feel a little headache. The scarcity of the outstanding coaches made them sometimes "grabbing people" with the provincial team. In the case of being attractive, the athletes who went out of Zhanjiang and also went out of Zhanjiang and went out of Zhanjiang to go out of the athletes. Not all willing to come back after retiring. The young coaches who were able to return to the mother team were all responsible for the young coaches, full of enthusiasm for diving. This emotion that continues the spirit of the hard -working and simple sporting spirit of the old diving people has promoted the diveders of Zhanjiang to overcome all difficulties and seek development in the twists and turns.

Shantou

65 world championship, diving accounted for half of the mountains and mountains

On the green island at the middle section of Zhongshan Road and Jinxin Road in Jinping District, Shantou, a unique white statue stands. Its appearance is connected to the three portraits, holding a championship trophy together with a light and light attitude. The trophy called "Rise" is one of the landmarks of the old town of Shantou. It also has a more vivid name- "Three -Body". The athletes Li Hongping, Li Qiaoxian, and Li Deliang are the prototypes of this sculpture. Because they are from Jinsha Township, the three of them are also known as "golden sand".

Although Shantou's diving is nearly half a century compared with Zhanjiang, it has not lagged behind. As of now, 30 of the 65 world championships scored in Shantou athletes have been diving projects. In June 1981, in the second World Cup diving competition held in Mexico City, Li Hongping folded Gui in the men's ten -meter platform. Become a superior sports project in Shantou. With the attention of local governments, Li Deliang, Li Qiaoxian, Xiao Yanjuan, Lin Yuanxia, ​​Cai Yuyan, Chi Meilan, Hu Jia, Xie Siyi, etc. emerged in Shantou City.

Borrowing the competition Dongfeng, the upgrade of hardware facilities

The Shantou Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government have attached great importance to the development of the key projects of diving over the years. From 2001, the new swimming diving hall was built for the ninth National Games. Shantou's diving hardware facilities have been continuously improved. In early 2020, the Shantou Diving School of the China Swimming Association, the Shantou Table Tennis School of Shantou City and Shantou Youth Amateur Sports School were merged into Shantou Sports School. The new campus in Shantou Sports Industry Base (Shantou Swimming Diving Hall) in the middle of Nanbin Road.

This plan was originally planned to be used in the third Asian Youth Fair in 2021, and it made people feel tall as soon as they came in. Although the Youth will be canceled for some reason, it leaves a considerable "heritage" for sports practitioners. Coach Lin Yuanxia said that before moving into the new venue, the training venue used in the diving team was not large. If you sprint from ten meters from ten meters, you may even cross the entire diving pool and hit the swimming pool and the diving pool between the swimming pool and the diving pool Base. The new venue that has been used this year covers an area of ​​5,200 square meters, which is equivalent to three -quarters of standard football fields. Thirty or forty small athletes also have some empty training at the same time. On the ground floor, the reconstruction and construction of the land training hall is also underway. From sandy land, grass sheds, to standard diving pools outdoors, and then to diving museums that can currently host large -scale events. In the 1980s, from Shantou Sports School to the national team, Lin Yuanxia, ​​who returned to his hometown after retiring, witnessed The changes in this road are very emotional. Today, the Shantou Sports School diving team has a total of 5 coaches and is responsible for the training of more than 60 athletes in school. Most of these athletes are selected from various primary schools in the urban area. The coaches will go to the school to select talents from time to time. During the training process, the coaches will stare at each child and repeat one after another. Some relatively older players will also be committed to the responsibility. Whether the towels are clamped, every detail that affects the completion of the action and the size of the water, the coaches are in their eyes. In addition to training, the lives of the athletes are also strictly required. For naughty children, they will not be soft -hearted. The rules inherited from the old -generation diving people are regarded as the coaches of the athletes as teaching their children to be human beings Code.

Standing on the platform ten meters, you will find that every step at the side of the descendant, the inner fear is one point, and looking around the training hall, the oldest child looks only 13 years old. “朝下看的时候你会害怕吗？”刚刚走上十米台，正在热身的初中孩子笑了笑：“会害怕，我练十米台也只有半年。”站在最高点，你能看见Below the left side of the pool, the just -entrying children who are in the water at the side of the pool; you can see the opposite side of the pool standing on the one -meter board, practicing the simple back of the child for half a week. Only by repeating exercises day after day can they walk up step by step, and challenge the increasingly difficult action step by step.
