The 100m sprint in the Olympics was known as the Battle of the Flying Men. It was one of the most watched, influential, and watched events.
After all, this champion was known as the fastest person in the world.
Although the scale of the city sports meet could not be compared to the Olympics, the 50-meter showdown still attracted everyone's attention.
In the past, the sports events that received the most attention were the 50m sprint of the lower grade group, the 100m sprint of the middle grade group, and the 100m and 400m sprint of the upper grade group!
Even the municipal sports bureau would send people to watch the battle.
Feiren Liu, the famous world champion of the 110m hurdles, was also a talent who had been discovered in the city's sports meet. In the end, he broke the world record and won the Olympic championship.
Therefore, the city attached great importance to this elementary school sports meet.
The deputy director of the Education Department, the director of the Sports Bureau, and several coaches attended the sports meet.
"Old Jiang, your sports school and the youth team of the municipal track and field team sent a lot of people to participate in this competition, right?”
Deputy Director Zhang of the Education Department said to Director Jiang of the Sports Bureau.
"Sigh, sending these children here to gain experience, at least they can feel the atmosphere of the competition!”
Director Jiang laughed and pointed at the 50m sprint track that was about to begin." The sports school has sent two new students to the junior group. Our city's track and field team is participating in the middle and senior groups. We should at least give some schools a chance to stand out…"
"You're always like this every year!"
Deputy Director Zhang shook his head, but he didn't take this matter to heart. The most important thing was participation, and the organizer of this city sports meet was mainly the Sports Bureau.
Most of the first place winners were students from the sports school, and there were also young athletes from the children's group of the municipal track and field team!
After all, they had been trained since they were young. There was obviously a gap between some amateur primary school students... but this way, it was easy to dig out talented seedlings. After all, if an amateur could beat a professional in primary school, one could imagine his talent.
When Feiren Liu was in primary school, he defeated all the athletes from the sports school and the track and field team in the city sports meet. That was why he was chosen by the coach of the Putuo District Youth Sports School and embarked on the path of sports.
Therefore, in recent years, Shanghai had attached great importance to track and field sports.
……
Zhao Yong pulled Wu Di along and introduced him to his opponents one by one.
He pointed at a little guy in a pair of Nikes sportswear in the distance and said,""That guy over there is a contestant from the best junior sports school in Shanghai, his name is Gao Jiaming. You have to pay attention to him, he is your strong competitor for this competition. There are a total of 138 primary schools participating in the 50m sprint, and there are more than 160 contestants, so they are divided into many groups…There are preliminaries, semi-finals, and finally the finals!”
" F * ck, so many?!"
Wu Di was shocked. He did not expect so many people to participate.
"What do you think? This is a competition in the city. All the leaders of the city are here to watch…"
Zhao Yong rolled his eyes at him."However, I know your strength. As long as you can run the same result as last time, you have a chance of getting first place…However, you must not use your full strength in the preliminaries.”
"Alright…"
Although Wu Di said so, he still wanted to set a record. This was a skill point!
Therefore, he was prepared to make a dash for the preliminaries. Anyway, with the support of the system, he was not afraid at all...
" Sigh, I thought you would get first place this time, but I didn't expect that every sports school in the district would send a candidate. Now you're under pressure..."
Zhao Yong sighed and looked at Wu Di."Don't think too much. Play well. I believe you have the ability!”
"You don't have to tell me…"
Wu Di pursed his lips and saw his own group. Group 2, third lane!
In many competitions, the first and second groups could also be regarded as cannon fodder groups. This was because the corresponding timing or monitoring equipment had just been activated during the first two groups 'competitions, and it was very easy for them to malfunction or have other emergencies.| The situation, what if in the competition| If there were any sudden problems, it was natural to let some unknown cannon fodder players bear the consequences. Only when the equipment was fully operational would they let the famous players play.
Another reason was that the competition had just begun, and the atmosphere of the competition had not yet been formed. It was difficult for the athletes in the first and second games to enter the competition state, so it was difficult for the athletes to make satisfactory results.
After a while, the competitive atmosphere on the field would become more intense, and the athletes would become excited. With the enthusiastic cheers of the surrounding audience, it was easy to mobilize the athletes 'on-the-spot state and achieve better results.
It was also because of this that the organizers of the competition would often arrange the strongest players to fight in the middle and the back.
However, the cannon fodder group also had its advantages. The athletes were weak, and the organizers wouldn't let famous players be cannon fodder. Therefore, the first and second groups were either new players or players who usually didn't have many chances to play.
Although this was the general rule for international competitions, the city's primary school sports meet also used this method.
Usually, the first and second groups would be ordinary primary schools, and the sports schools and key primary schools would be the ones in the back…This was actually an unspoken rule that many physical education teachers knew.
But Zhao Yong was still very satisfied with this group.
In Zhao Yong's opinion, what Wu Di needed the most right now was to adapt to the atmosphere of the competition. Therefore, placing him in the group with the weaker level of competition would be beneficial for Wu Di to advance.
"Wu Di, do your best. You will definitely get first place. I can guarantee it!”
Zhao Yong looked at Wu Di, who was already walking toward the track, and muttered to himself.
At this moment, a person behind him suddenly patted Zhao Yong's shoulder.
"Zhao Yong…"
That person shouted. Zhao Yong hurriedly turned around and could not help but be stunned."Teacher Chen, why are you here?"
"Haha, I've transferred to Shanghai World's Foreign Language Primary School to be a P.E. teacher…Why, do you have students participating too?”
