Report from China Roller Skating official website:
20 10 roller skating will enter the Asian Games for the first time, adding another fire to the already popular roller skating in Guangzhou. Every weekend, there are many people wearing roller skates in the square. Chen, deputy secretary-general of Guangzhou Skating Association, said that the number of people in Guangzhou Skating Association is increasing by 20% every year. At present, there are tens of thousands of participants in Guangzhou Skating Association. Even the elderly are challenging this fashion sport. Hundreds of elderly roller skating teams are being formed, and the elderly in Guangzhou have boarded the Great Wall in roller skates. Starting from this year, children with roller skating skills can be selected as sports special students and recommended students to be sent to higher schools, and students who have won the national roller skating first-class athletes and second-class athletes can be admitted without examination. Parents are more willing to spend a lot of money to let their children learn roller skating, and there are tens of thousands of primary and secondary school students who participate in roller skating training. Roller skating in colleges and universities has developed from only four or five roller skating associations in colleges and universities in the city four or five years ago to 90% of colleges and universities at present. A group of college students have entered the ranks of national roller skating referees, and have developed from simple playing to specialization.
At present, Guangzhou roller skating is in the forefront of the country. There is a saying that "adults look at Shanghai and teenagers look at Guangdong". As far as figure skating is concerned, there is also a saying that "Guangdong takes a fancy to Guangzhou". Bernard Chow, technical operation manager of the Asian Organizing Committee for Roller Skating, said that at present, the national roller skating events are basically in Guangdong, and 90% of the national figure skating competitions are from Guangdong every year. He estimated that the status of Guangdong roller skaters in the country will be higher and higher in the future.
The number of roller skating associations is increasing by 20% every year.
Chen, deputy secretary-general of Guangzhou Skating Association, said that the number of people in Guangzhou Skating Association is increasing by 20% every year. According to reports, there are only 13 roller skating clubs under the Guangzhou Skating Association, with a total number of tens of thousands, and there are countless folk players.
Li Kechang, Social Sports Center of Provincial Sports Bureau, introduced that roller skating competition is divided into figure skating, speed skating, roller skating and freestyle skating. Only figure skating and speed skating were selected for this Asian Games. In 2008, there was not even a standard stadium with a circumference of 200 meters in Guangdong Province. However, in recent two years, as roller skating entered the Asian Games, the sports department paid more and more attention to this sport. Four standard speed skating competition venues have been established in the province, including two in Foshan and one in Shenzhen. As the host of this Asian Games, Guangzhou University Town is also establishing a standard roller skating competition venue. In recent years, Guangdong Provincial Sports Bureau has allocated 50,000-60,000 special funds to support roller skating. Chen also added that while the number of participants is increasing, the number of roller skating competitions organized by the sports department is also increasing. Since three years ago, the Guangdong Provincial Sports Bureau has held the Guangdong Old-fashioned Roller Skating Competition every year, and the Guangzhou Sports Bureau will also hold the Guangzhou Flat Roller Skating Competition, as well as many activities organized by large and small folk roller skating clubs.
The number of clubs quadrupled in four years.
When you go to large open-air venues such as Hero Square on weekends, you can always see roller skating training courses offered by three or four private roller skating clubs. Deng Yongquan, the national figure skating coach, said that roller skating has gained a lot since it entered the Asian Games. At present, there are about hundreds of roller skating clubs in the city, compared with 20 or 30 four or five years ago. At present, the best clubs in Guangzhou are Xiaogang Bay Primary School, Guangzhou Children's Figure Roller Skating Club and Panyu Shiqiao Speed Roller Skating Club.
It is understood that the current roller skating clubs in Guangzhou are not expensive. Generally, the tuition fee for each class is within 30 yuan, which is only two or three hundred a month. High-grade roller skates imported from abroad cost tens of thousands of yuan, but some are several hundred yuan cheaper.
Grapefruit professional roller skating equipment, opened four years ago, has three branches, specializing in selling roller skating shoes, protective gear and other roller skating related equipment. Boss Zheng said, "Driven by the Asian Games, our business is 30% to 40% better than last year, and the monthly turnover is about 65,438+10,000 yuan."
The winner of the municipal competition is listed as a special student.
A master's degree was admitted to Guangzhou Institute of Physical Education without examination.
Playing roller skating is helpful for further study and refreshing parents. With the approach of the Asian Games, Guangzhou's roller skaters will show their skills in the competition, and more masters will fly in the streets, and even a 60-year-old man has set foot on the Great Wall.
There are several ways to play roller skating.
Excellent skating, no exam.
Bernard Chow, roller skating technical operation manager of the Asian Games Organizing Committee, said that starting from this year, the Sports Health Art Department of the education bureaus of various provinces and cities and the Guangdong Provincial Department of Education jointly issued a document, requiring primary and secondary school students who have won roller skating championships at or above the municipal level to register and put on record, and can be selected as sports special students and recommended to walk students, while students who have won national roller skating first-class athletes and second-class athletes can be admitted without trial.
Bernard Chow estimates that there are tens of thousands of primary and middle school students in this city who take part in roller skating training. "In 2005, there were only more than 300 participants in the roller skating championship for primary and middle school students held by Guangzhou Sports Bureau and Municipal Education Bureau. In the past two years, the number of participants in the same activity was around 500. "
Deng Yongquan, the national figure skating coach, said that there is a "one-stop" roller skating training from primary school to university. A considerable number of middle schools in Guangzhou recruit roller skating students in the early and middle stages of junior high schools, and each school recruits about 4 to 5 students, including Lantian Middle School in Haizhu District, No.33 Middle School, No.76 Middle School, Jiangnan Middle School and No.4 Middle School in Liwan District. "It is useless to train a roller skater for three to five years. Now roller skating is good for children to go to school, and parents are more willing to invest.
Sui has become a national referee certification base.
The professionalism of roller skaters in colleges and universities has been further strengthened. Chen, deputy secretary-general of the Roller Skating Association, revealed that the referees of roller skating events can be divided into international referees, national first-class referees and national second-class referees from high to low. At present, there are two international referees in Guangzhou, about eight at the national level and twenty or thirty at the national level. It is worth noting that there are more than ten college students in Guangzhou who appear in the national second-level referee team.
Chen said that since 2005, Guangzhou Roller Skating Association has held a training course on professional study, discussion and assessment of Guangdong roller skating referees every two years. This training course was held recently this year, attracting 38 students, about two-thirds of whom are college students, and the proportion of college students in the total number is much higher than in the past. Chen also introduced that in Guangdong province, only Guangzhou has held a roller skating referee certification class, and few provinces in the country can do this. Therefore, this referee certification class has roller skaters or roller skaters specially certified and upgraded from Guangxi and Xiamen.
90% colleges and universities have roller skating associations.
Roller skating has become an upcoming Asian Games event. In addition to the encouragement of athletes, many young people in Guangzhou also clearly feel that roller skating is becoming a part of life. Chen, deputy secretary-general of Guangzhou Skating Association, mentioned that roller skating activities in colleges and universities have developed particularly rapidly. "Now there is almost no college in Guangzhou without a roller skating association."
Recently, about 400 roller skaters from 30 universities in Guangzhou, Dongguan, Zhuhai, Zhongshan, Zhaoqing, Foshan and Hong Kong gathered in Wushan Campus of South China University of Technology to try their hand. This is the 4th "RB Cup" roller skating challenge sponsored by South China University of Technology Roller Skating Association on 20 10. Zhu Xiaoke, the instructor of the Roller Skating Association of South China University of Technology, told the reporter that the fourth competition was larger than the previous three and had the largest number of participants. "Only more than 200 people participated last year." It is also the most sponsored by merchants, which shows that merchants also take a fancy to the huge business opportunities.
Zhu Xiaoke told reporters, "Five or six years ago, only four or five colleges and universities in Guangzhou had roller skating associations, and then basically five roller skating associations were added every year. Now there are 30 roller skating associations in Guangzhou, including the roller skating associations of Guangdong Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Vocational and Technical College and Panyu Women's Vocational and Technical College. " Bernard Chow, technical operation manager of the Asian Games Roller Skating Organizing Committee, revealed that at present, 90% of colleges and universities in the city have roller skating associations.
Roller skating depth charge
Old people climb the Great Wall on roller skates.
Chen, deputy secretary-general of Guangzhou Skating Association, said that this year Guangzhou Skating Association is setting up a new roller skating team for the elderly, with about 100 players. "Xian Yi, Xian Yi, old and young, roller skating is good for the cardiovascular and respiratory systems of the elderly, but roller skating for the elderly should be based on leisure and less strenuous exercise."
In Luochongwei, it is common for a tall, thin man with curly hair and red glasses to gallop across the street in roller skates. His name is "Brother Hui". When he took off his sunglasses, he realized that he was a retiree who was nearly 60 years old. Brother Hui used to be a PE teacher. Before roller skating in 2004, he was ill for six years, with lumbar disc herniation, stomachache and easy to catch a cold. In 2004, Huige decided to stick to a sport to keep fit. Living near Luochongwei Bus Terminal, he saw many children in the community playing roller skating and actually skating with them.
Since then, Huige has often shuttled back and forth on the slopes and hills around the community, wearing roller skates and flying at least one kilometer every day. Brother Hui goes out by bus and even wears roller skates. As soon as there is a traffic jam, he gets off the bus and continues to fly. "It would be nice to skate instead of walking. I will never get stuck in traffic jams, and it is a low-carbon trip! " Once I went to Zhongshan Fifth Road from Luochongwei with my friends. I wore roller skates and my friend took a car. Finally, I reached the finish line with the fastest speed! "When I first got on the train on roller skates, Hui Ge was driven away by the people in the car, but he insisted on using his personal performance to prove that he would not endanger the safety of other passengers and was gradually accepted." Now sometimes when the bus arrives, when the driver sees me waiting for the bus on roller skates, he will actively and enthusiastically say to me,' Brother Hui, welcome to get on the bus!' " "
After becoming an excellent roller skater, Huige miraculously recovered from dysentery. "This is my biggest gain in roller skating. In recent years, I basically don't have to go to the hospital, but I can still take a cold shower! " Brother Hui also stressed that roller skating is actually not dangerous, and the most important thing is people's consciousness. "As long as the technical level is guaranteed and the focus is properly grasped, you will know how to avoid people in the street. I want to play roller skating until I am old! "
From 2005 to now, Huige often wears roller skates to climb the "hundred steps" of Baiyun Mountain. It also took more than two hours to climb more than 3000 steps of Ruyuan Grand Canyon in Guangdong. Before the 2008 Olympic Games, Huige realized his dream-roller skating on the Great Wall to cheer for the Olympic Games. He climbed Badaling on roller skates and stepped down the Great Wall. He wore a red ribbon printed with the words "China will win", a T-shirt printed with the words "Olympic Games" and a dazzling "costume" holding the Olympic five-ring flag, which attracted tourists to cheer all the way.
In June 5438+10, the Asian Games Organizing Committee invited Hui Ge to participate in the Asian Games publicity activities held in Zengcheng Gualou Square. As the first guest performer, he appeared on the stage wearing roller skates. Brother Hui summed up a life lesson of roller skating: "Anything you have the courage to do has won half the battle."
National athletes enter universities without examination.
Deng Yongquan is the only national coach in Guangzhou, and his children's roller skating team won the second place in the national roller skating championship for 10 years in a row. There are more than 80 students in the club, of whom 20 or 30 are not primary schools, and the oldest is about 18 years old. On May 24th, he led a team to represent Guangdong in the roller skating competition of the 4th National Games held in Anhui Province, and won the runner-up, which was the best result of the amateur team. Among the players he led, there was a female player, Huang Wenxin, from No.76 Middle School and No.3 Middle School. She fell down during the trial practice at the competition site on the evening of May 23, and her lips were swollen and she had several stitches. "She worked very hard, insisted on the game the next day, took painkillers and then played, and played the original level!" Deng Yongquan said that his powerful team members are full of pride. Huang Wenxin won the national, provincial and municipal women's roller skating junior championship in 2004, and was transferred to the national roller skating training team in 2008, winning the second place in the Asian double roller skating championship and the eleventh place in the world double roller skating championship. Now he is a national athlete and admitted to Guangzhou Institute of Physical Education without examination.
