"Zhao Jingdong, the national equestrian referee, the twelfth ethnic minority sports sports meeting of the 12th ethnic minority of Yunnan Province, told reporters in an interview.

Equestrian has a good traditional advantage in Yunnan. Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Lijiang City and other ethnic minorities have a large number of equestrian teams. Horse played an important role in the production and life of the local people. For example: The ancient tea horse road in Lijiang, tourists traveling by horses; Dali's March street horse racing also has strong national characteristics. The climax has continued for more than 1400 years.

"Our province's equestrian project has a good foundation, especially Diqing Prefecture and Dali Prefecture. People like horse racing and raising horses. Diqing State holds the Shangri -La Horse Racing Festival every year. Lovers and excellent equestrian clubs, "Zhao Jingdong said.

At the previous Yunnan ethnic minority traditional sports conferences, there are horsesy projects. In the previous national minority games, the Yunnan delegation has achieved excellent results.

According to Zhao Jingdong, on December 17, 2011, the Yunnan Sports Bureau officially authorized the "Xingyao · Water Village Equestrian Club" to become the first equestrian training base in Yunnan Province, which played a positive role in promoting the new development of Yunnan Equestrian Movement. On March 1, 2014, the Yunnan Equestrian Team officially established in the "CITIC · Xingyao Water Village". With the appearance of the first batch of equestrian athletes, our provincial equestrian movement officially moved to professionalism and professionalization. On May 18, 2015, CITIC Galize (International) Equestrian Club cooperated with Yunnan Sports Vocational and Technical College to carry out the signing ceremony of the "equestrian sports and service management" professional talent training. Step.

In 2019, at the 2nd National Youth Games, the Yunnan Equestrian team won the eighth place in the Equestrian Disarium Project Finals, and achieved the "zero breakthrough" of the Yunnan Equestrian Warbers Movement in national competitions. Since then, in many domestic equestrian competitions, our province has also won good results such as championships and runner -up.

"Today, equestrian has developed better and better in China, and Yunnan has also shown a good momentum. The ethnic equestrian of our province has continued to bloom charm in the arena." Zhao Jingdong said.

"Although our province's equestrian project has achieved good results, there are still many shortcomings in the development of ethnic equestrian in our province." Zhao Jingdong told reporters that at present, due to the high cost of equestrian sports, the national equestrian team that has not been trained in our province has not yet been trained, and and and and with the national equestrian team. Compared with the development of domestic equestrian projects, compared with the lack of technical coaches and athletes, they lack advanced training methods. In addition, because Yunnan does not have a standard horse racing venue (previously in line with the racecourse that is not available for various reasons), inadequate training conditions, and scarce horses, etc., the level of national equestrian movement in our province has stopped.

In this regard, Zhao Jingdong said that the road of national equestrian development in our province is far away, and all sectors of society need to work together to work together. In particular, it is necessary to work hard to improve the improvement of equestrian sports software, hardware facilities, and the coverage of equestrian movements. Continuously lay the foundation and create conditions for the development of ethnic equestrian, let more people join the equestrian movement, feel the national cultural charm on the horse, and inherit the development of national culture.
