  In fact, I have been putting forward such a proposal on the popularization of ice and snow sports for 2-3 years, and it has also received a high degree of attention from the country's top (leaders).

I have also seen that after the successful bid for the Winter Olympics, many of our provinces and cities have introduced relevant policies to promote the popularization of ice and snow sports. We have also seen the relevant work of the education authorities promoting ice and snow sports into campuses. I think the effect is irrelevant. From the perspective of the public opinion atmosphere and the actual implementation effect, good results have been achieved.

  [Explanation] Wang Yanxia is the first batch of staff to participate in the Winter Olympics bid.

Starting from bidding for the Winter Olympics, she has witnessed the success of Beijing-Zhangjiakou's right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, the release of the Beijing Winter Olympics emblem, mascot and torch, and the completion of various competition venues.

Wang Yanxia believes that the popularization and development of ice and snow sports is a long-term task, and the continuous improvement of the competition system can support the long-term sustainable development of ice and snow sports.

  I hope that for the long-term sustainable development of ice and snow sports, our country should pay attention to the development of its own domestically made equipment manufacturing industry related to ice and snow sports. This is one aspect.

Then there is another aspect that the ice and snow sports event system needs to be established. Our country has a relatively weak foundation for ice and snow sports, whether it is the national competitive sports event system or the popularization of this system for primary and middle school students. Even the competition system for college students is good, and it still needs to be further completed to support the long-term sustainable development of the entire ice and snow sports popularization.

  [Explanation] As a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Wang Yanxia conducted some targeted research activities and contacted elementary and middle school students in some provinces and cities, and found that the physical fitness of young people needs to be improved.

To this end, Wang Yanxia made three suggestions from the perspective of sports management.

  The first is to increase the supply of sports and fitness facilities. Some work must be done in this regard.

Then there is another aspect. I also noticed that the level of school physical education needs to be improved. The school physical education teaching, the school’s physical education teacher’s salary and the continuing education, his professional title promotion, and the culture teacher are There are differences, this is not conducive to the improvement of the level of physical education and the stability of the team of physical education teachers.

Another aspect is the establishment of the entire competition system for elementary schools, middle schools, and universities. These competition systems must be implemented. This is also a good incentive system for young people.
