Two sessions: Lawmakers, advisers offer suggestions for sports promotion
Sports education
Zou Kai:
Member of the 13th National Committee of CPPCC and five-time Olympic champion
*Basic gymnastics training should include preschoolers
"I've been on top of the pyramid for so long, but I am following the sport's development at its foundations all the time. The fact there are fewer and fewer children interested and involved in the sport, even as a basic physical exercise, has worried me a lot."
Ye Shiwen:
Deputy to 13th NPC and swimming champion
*Setting up sports insurance system for students
"The physical quality and health of primary school students concern many people. However, many students told me they are not fond of sports. Schools are usually reluctant to promote sports activities on campus to avoid safety risks. I hope education authorities set up a sports insurance system to reduce pressure on schools. And schools should build more sports facilities and organize more activities to develop students' interest in sports."
