Preparations are on for the 19th Asian Games at Hangzhou, China that is going to take place from September 23-October 10, 2023. A national coaching camp is being held in Srinagar. Around 45 players are participating in the Asian Games from the country. We had requested to hold the coaching camp here as the equipment, infrastructure and climate is good here. It is a high altitude camp so players will not feel the summer heat and can practise well. The local players are also coaching here and they will benefit from the experienced, national players. It is a matter of happiness for me as junior players are learning from me. Wushu is a good game for self defence. Girls sitting at home must learn this sport, said a Wushu player. Sometimes students get depressed with so much studying. Doing sports, they can keep themselves mentally fit. People can focus on everything. They will automatically care about everything. They will never be careless. So sports helps in studies and all the other things.Through sports India is represented in other countries. It is a positive thing. Sports give us proud moments when India is represented in other countries. By indulging in mobiles they give us nothing, said a national Wushu player. A two-time winner of bronze medallist doing practice sessions under Dronacharya in the National Coaching camp in Srinagar said, we are lucky and thankful to the J&K government and the Sports Federation of India for providing the players with all facilities. Wushu is an art of war. There are many girls learning Wushu. It is a good tactic for defending oneself. Besides, their confidence and mental level remains high. They can go anywhere confidently and speak to anyone. To empower the women of India there is no better game than Wushu, said a male player.
