On February 22, 2023, the 2023 "Hangzhou Water Cup" badminton match of Guangxi Urban Water Supply and Drainage Association officially kicked off in Beihai, Guangxi. With high morale, nearly 100 athletes and coaches from seven offices including Chongzuo and Liuzhou in Nanning will go all out to participate in each competition in the next three days.
The competition was sponsored by Guangxi Urban Water Supply and Drainage Association, and hosted by Guangxi Beihai Water Supply Co., Ltd. and Beihai Badminton Association. Hangzhou Water Meter Co., Ltd. participated in the whole event as the exclusive co-organizer. At nine o'clock in the morning, under the cool breeze and warm sun, the competition was kicked off in the solemn national anthem. Yang Jianlao, president of Guangxi Urban Water Supply and Drainage Association, Zheng Jiarong, executive vice president, and the main leaders of the seven offices under the Water Supply and Drainage Association attended the opening ceremony. Xu Lun, vice president of our company, addressed the competition. President Xu said: "For a long time, the Association and the water companies in the autonomous region have given us meticulous care and guidance to help us grow rapidly. We express our sincere gratitude! At the same time, we sincerely hope to build a platform for mutual learning and exchange for the water company friends through co-organizing such activities, and do our best to continue to contribute to the development of Guangxi's water industry."
The game begins
At the end of the grand opening ceremony, Yang Jianlao, president of Guangxi Water Conservancy Association, sounded a whistle to announce that the badminton fortress has officially entered the most tense and exciting stage of the competition.
The event is divided into two major events: mixed team event and individual event (leading team). The first stage of the group competition is the group round robin, where the top two of the group are qualified, and then enter the cross-elimination competition, where the winner competes for the championship. After two days of fierce fighting, the representative team of Beiqinfang Office sent by Beihai Water Supply Co., Ltd. and the representative team of Yugui Office of Yulin Urban Water Investment Group Co., Ltd. successfully stood out and reached the finals. Mixed doubles played the first shot in the final. The two groups of partners, who cooperate with each other, come and go. Every attack and defense, every movement, every look, every gesture, all show the style of professional players. If you are careless, you lose the initiative to attack. Badminton draws a beautiful but hidden parabola in the air, which is dazzling and amazing. Finally, Yugui Office won the first prize with a weak advantage after a bitter battle. The North Qinhuangdao Defense Office is obviously a well-trained team. After losing one set first, it took no time to get up and go straight. In the following women's singles, men's doubles and women's doubles competitions, it won three games in a row, and the total score was 3 to 1.
At the same time, the individual events on the other side of the field are also in full swing. This is a battle interwoven with sweat and hard work, and also a sublimation of friendship between water companies. During this process, the contestants had full exchanges and exchanges, and finally two pairs of teams sent by Beihai Water Supply Co., Ltd.'s Beiqinfang Office - Huang Xue, Ye Zhen, Pang Zhibin and Su Xuhui, won the final match.
