Hey there, winter sports fans! Have you heard about the amazing events happening at the Asian Winter Games? 🏂⛸️ The 9th Asian Winter Games are wrapping up soon, and it’s been a blast!
Timothy Fok Tsun-Ting, a very important person in the world of sports (he’s part of the International Olympic Committee!), visited Harbin to share his excitement. Harbin is a city in China that’s super famous for ice and snow. ❄️
Mr. Fok was thrilled because this year’s games had a record number of participants — 34 nations and regions joined in! 🌍 That’s like having friends from all over Asia come together to skate, ski, and play ice hockey.
He also cheered on China’s achievements in winter sports. Did you know that China has become really good at sports like figure skating and snowboarding? 🥇 Mr. Fok hopes that the next Asian Winter Games in Harbin in 2025 will inspire more kids and teens, just like you, to try out these cool sports!
Looking forward, the 2029 Asian Winter Games will be in Saudi Arabia. 🏜️⛷️ Yes, you read that right! Mr. Fok believes that snow and ice sports can be enjoyed even in places we might not expect. How exciting is that?
As the leader of the Hong Kong SAR Olympic Committee, he’s super proud of the Hong Kong ice hockey team, who finished in the top eight! 🏒👏 That’s a huge achievement for them.
Oh, and guess what? Mr. Fok is celebrating his 79th birthday on the last day of the games! 🎂🥳 His birthday wish is for Harbin 2025 to be a huge success and to get more people involved in winter sports.
So, what do you think? Maybe it’s time to grab some skates or a snowboard and join in the fun! ❄️⛷️
