This is a very good development opportunity for Liaoning's sports industry, especially for competitive sports. It will surely further consolidate the foundation of competitive sports reserve talents in our province, comprehensively enhance the overall strength of competitive sports in our province, and enhance the ability to bring glory to the country and Liaoning Province.
Song Kai, Director of Liaoning Provincial Sports Bureau:
"Star Selection Plan" requires in-depth mobilization and extensive publicity to break the original selection routine, the provincial, municipal, district and county linkage, sports education linkage, various associations, clubs, training institutions, sports characteristic schools and other departments and units join hands to participate, actively mobilize forces from all walks of life to participate in the "Star Selection Plan" work.
Long-term implementation

Rewards at all levels
In the "Star Selection Plan", the General Administration of Sports of China will give corresponding rewards to athletes who have achieved excellent results in major international competitions, so as to better mobilize the enthusiasm of grassroots units and grassroots sports workers to cultivate competitive talents.
Song Kai believes that
, the reward mechanism of layered reward mechanism, especially for grassroots units, is of great benefit to major sports talents provinces like Liaoning. It can not only further stimulate the enthusiasm of staff at all grassroots sports departments, but also effectively prevent the outflow of outstanding young talents. In terms of the scope of talent selection, we must combine the actual development of Liaoning Sports, define key material selection directions, concentrate our efforts and target our targeted efforts. Even events such as track and field, swimming, water, -heavy competitive , bicycle, "three big balls", "three small balls", and winter are the key material selection directions in Liaoning.
At present,
Liaoning's outstanding sports reserve talents auditions have begun
In the future, hierarchical transmission will be carried out to carry out targeted training
The so-called hierarchical transmission is to transfer the best talents to the national team; the provincial team and municipal team should also select a group and stay a group, so as to further consolidate the status of Liaoning's sports province and strong province, and contribute Liaoning's strength to the construction of a strong sports country.
