To strengthen the sports-related communication and collaboration between Sichuan Province and the Macao Special Administrative Region, the Sports Bureau organized a delegation composed of 41 teenage athletes in four areas, which are athletics, artistic swimming, tennis and martial arts, to participate in the “Sichuan-Macao Youth Sports Exchange Activities”held in Chengdu city of Sichuan Province from April 8 to 11.

During the exchange activities, coaches from both places shared their experience in sports training with each other. Teenage athletes from both places also underwent professional training, extensive interaction and friendly competition. The Sports Bureau expected that the sports-related collaboration between teenage athletes from two places can be further enhanced through these exchange activities, so as to mutually facilitate the development in the sports area. Meanwhile, Macao teenage athletes will have greater understanding of the specific area that they are specialized in. Through understanding the training methods of the athletes from Mainland, they are encouraged to be familiarized with more training methods, cultivate a positive attitude towards training and develop their skills continuously.
