One after another sports events have begun, sports facilities are being built at home, and a large number of high-level, modern sports venues have risen from the ground... Since 2022, Hangzhou Qiantang Yipeng Street has created a high-quality "10-minute fitness circle", and the beautiful vision of "allowing more people to exercise at their doorstep" has entered the daily lives of Yipeng people.
Make sports venues "within reach"
Yipeng Street is located in the core area of Qiantang District, and has always been the political, economic and cultural center of the Dajiangdong area. However, what the public does not know is that Yipeng Street has won the honorary title of "Zhejiang Province Sports Town" as early as 2006. As a strong sports town, Yipeng Subdistrict has continued to develop over the years. Currently, it has nearly 100 fitness venues such as basketball balls, fitness centers, morning exercise spots, indoor gyms, and a number of fitness trails in 21 administrative villages under its jurisdiction.
Standing at the development node of the new era, people not only have an increasing demand for a better life, but also have an increasingly emerging demand for diversified and high-quality sports activities. National fitness and sports venue construction are important foundations. Although there are a number of fitness outlets such as fitness parks in Yipeng Subdistrict, due to urban development, planned land and other factors, there is still a lack of public basketball courts, tennis courts and other ball venues in the built-up area. How to revitalize the use of venues and increase the construction of sports venues has become one of the key tasks of the relevant government departments in Yipeng Street.
"This year we have added a construction plan for eight embedded sports venues, which will be implemented in three years. If all are completed, while greatly improving the quality of residents' lives, sports venues will truly be 'within reach'." Since 2022, Yipeng Street has used fragmented site resources to "embed" each sports venue into the people's living circle.
In the Party and Mass Service Center of Elan Community in the street, if you go up to the fifth floor, you will see an open-air sports and fitness venue, complete with table tennis tables, badminton courts, and leisure spaces for residents to relax and entertain. Walking further inside is the local public welfare gym, where you can see rows of treadmills, elliptical machines, , rowing machines and other related sports training equipment. "The combination of the common people's gym and the outdoor 'embedded' sports field can not only make the most of the effective space of nearly 380 square meters, but also add a good place for local residents to relax and exercise."
"In the past, you had to walk a long way to exercise in the gym, but now, there is a sports venue at your doorstep The venue is only a 5-minute walk away, which is really convenient." Starting from the beginning of 2022, the fitness venue on the 5th floor of the Elan Community Party and Mass Service Center has been officially opened to the public. Now, it has not only become a "check-in" place for local residents to relax in their leisure time, but has also become a vivid epitome of the "embedded" sports venue in Yipeng Street.
It is reported that the ground basketball court and badminton court in Elan Community are also about to be completed and will be open to the public at the end of the year and the beginning of the year. In the future, Yipeng Subdistrict will also build a new batch of standard lighted basketball courts, tennis courts, gateball courts, and open trails, morning exercise spots and other related "embedded" sports venues in the Citizen Plaza, Xiangtao Community, Elderly Service Center and other places.
Let fitness activities be "shared by all"
"When you take off, you should squat slightly, so that the probability of a layup will be improved. When the defender is in front of you, turning around for a layup is a wise choice." On the outdoor basketball court in Chunyuan Village, Mo Shaochao, the village's general sports instructor, is giving a public welfare "basketball class" to local villagers. For Mo Shaochao, who has more than ten years of "teaching experience", this kind of teaching routine has long been a "daily life" in his free time.
In fact, Mo Shaochao’s job is as a practitioner in the field of welding materials. Because he loves basketball and sports competitions, he officially became a sports instructor in 2006. Under his leadership, the first basketball team of Chunyuan Village was officially established. It has participated in basketball leagues organized by the streets and Qiantang District many times, and has achieved good results many times.
Sports instructors are people who are engaged in skill teaching, training guidance and organizational management in mass sports activities other than competitive sports, school sports, and military sports. They are the main force in the development of mass sports . In Yipeng Street, there are currently 286 sports instructors represented by Mo Shaochao. They are active in various fitness venues all year round, providing guidance on basketball, badminton, table tennis, Tai Chi, square dancing and various equipment fitness.
"I prefer dancing, so when I have free time, I usually book classes with instructors in the 'Zheli Fitness' section of the ' Zheli Ban ' app. Since this year, I have taken nearly 50 charity square dance classes. It not only exercises my body, but also makes new friends. It's great!" Zhang Xingfang, a resident of Toupeng Village, shared with a smile. It is reported that at present, the "Zheli Fitness" platform in the "Zheli Ban APP", a duty performance service platform for social sports instructors in Zhejiang, allows social instructors to publish relevant courses on this platform, and citizens can enjoy relevant course reservations and communication and inquiry services.
In order to strengthen the construction of the team of sports instructors, Yipeng Subdistrict also carries out training for sports instructors several times every year, inviting professional teachers in the sports industry to effectively improve the professional knowledge and business skills of sports instructors through personal demonstrations, on-site explanations, and answering questions.
"Sports instructors in the street generally come from all walks of life. They gather together because of their love of sports and sports. I believe that while everyone is coaching local residents to exercise better, this positive and optimistic attitude towards life can also influence and attract more people to join this team." In 2022, Yipeng Street will add more than 60 sports instructors. The addition of this new batch of people will also inject fresh blood into the team of street sports instructors.
Yipeng Street not only has a professional social sports instructor, but also has a series of rich sports activities. Since 2022, Yipeng Street has organized 12 sports events and fitness demonstrations around the theme of "Welcoming the Asian Games, Healthy Yipeng" and other themes, such as the "Women Welcome Asian Games Rope Skipping Contest", "Thousand People Trailwalking " and "Village Community Basketball League". The number of activities has reached more than 180, involving old, middle-aged and young people of all ages, with more than 25,000 direct participants.
