Since entering the "ice season", the public's enthusiasm for participating in ice and snow has risen. Yang Liguo, vice chairman of the International Collegiate Athletic Association and executive vice president and secretary general of the China University Sports Association, recently said in Harbin that in order to achieve the goal of “300 million people participating in the snow and ice movement”, we must first solve the problem of “where to participate”.

"Like there is no football field, there is no way to promote the development of football. This snow and ice short board must be filled, otherwise the ice and snow project can not land." Yang Liguo said during the first Sino-Russian University Student Snow Carnival. At present, a major "short board" that restricts the development of winter snow and ice in China is the lack of sports venues.

The "National Ice and Snow Facility Facilities Construction Plan (2016-2022)" recently introduced, the number of national ice skating halls will be no less than 650 by 2022, the number of ski resorts will reach 800, and the snowy area will reach 100 million square meters. The length of the snowy road will reach 3,500 kilometers.

Zhu Zhiqiang, a winter sports research expert and president of Harbin Sports Academy, said that in order to improve the quality of the venue, the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee continued to increase its investment in 2022, and set up a snowwork research group to analyze the weather in the Yanqing area of Beijing in the past 20 years. To prepare for snowmaking work.

 At present, Harbin Institute of Physical Education, Jilin Institute of Physical Education and Shenyang Institute of Physical Education are three institutions in China that have facilities for winter ice and snow and can train ice and snow sports teachers. Among them, Harbin Sports Institute has hosted many snow sports events.

“The three provinces have unique resource advantages and the tradition of mass ice and snow. Harbin Institute of Physical Education can have its own ski resort, build a snow and ice base, and achieve world-class level. I am very proud, but I hope that such a venue can be more. Zhu Zhiqiang said.

Yang Liguo believes that in the past, the physical education teachers used their enthusiasm to use their spare time to water the ice on the outdoor site. I hope that the government will build a communication platform, encourage more capital investment, and speed up the construction of skating halls and ski resorts.

"Through the exchange of winter snow and ice projects, we must learn from Russia, the United States and other countries with ice and snow sports advantages, learn from and learn from advanced experience, and promote the perfection of China's ice and snow venue facilities for the winter Olympics. Energy." Yang Liguo said.
