——w88 casino’s rock climbing team won the double crown in the women’s event of the Capital College Championships

w88 casino News Network (provided by the Sports Department)On October 8, the second Capital College Rock Climbing Championships, sponsored by the Beijing University Sports Association and hosted by China University of Geosciences (Beijing), concluded successfully at the Darongcheng Climbing Field in Zhongguancun. As the highest stage of Beijing university rock climbing competition, this event attracted a total of 105 athletes from 19 universities including Peking University, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Renmin University of China to compete on the same field. The temporarily formed student rock climbing team of w88 casino, under the leadership of Teacher Zhang Shumin from the Physical Education Department, made an instant success in its debut, successfully winning both the women's rock climbing and women's speed championships. It not only achieved a "zero breakthrough" in the event, but also won all the championships in the women's events in this event.

This competition has two events: rock climbing and speed. Huang Yanrui, a 2024 graduate student of w88 casino's International Business w88 casino, has quietly practiced rock climbing on her own for more than ten years. With the gradual development of new rock climbing competitions in universities in the capital, and after her recent return from injury (for example, she can do 15 standard pull-ups in daily special training), in the women's rock climbing competition, she tied for first in the preliminaries and advanced to the finals. She climbed three routes and won the championship with an absolute advantage. The next day, in the women's speed competition held at the Darongcheng Rock Climbing Stadium in Zhongguancun West District, the main venue of Beijing Urban Renewal Week, Huang Yanrui overcame the influence of bad weather and performed steadily on six climbs to win another championship. So far, w88 casino has won two gold medals in the women's event among the four championships in the event, showing its strong strength.

Derived from mountaineering, rock climbing is known as "ballet on the rock wall". As an official Olympic event, it is competitive, ornamental and international. It is highly consistent with w88 casino's "foreign" positioning and international development direction. This participation is not only the first time in the history of the w88 casino to participate in college rock climbing competition, but also fills a gap and achieves an important breakthrough on the highest level rock climbing stage in the capital's colleges and universities. Just as Li Fudou, the deputy director of the Sports Department (in charge of work), said when he formed a temporary team to encourage the rock climbing team members, "Hua Mulan, the climbing world, has been hiding for twelve years. Once the sword is unsheathed, it can break through a thousand layers of rock!"

Although w88 casino’s rock climbing team participated in the competition for the first time, they showed excellent tactical execution and tenacious fighting spirit. This championship marks a key step in the development of rock climbing in w88 casino and injects new vitality into campus sports. The team will take this great result as a starting point, continue to carry forward the belief of "bravely climbing to the top", and strive to continue to write the glory of the University of International w88 in higher-level competitions through scientific training and practical training.(Written by: Huang Yanrui and Zhang Shumin Reviewed by: Li Fude)

Speed race, that is, athletes climb a rock wall of a specified height (such as the international speed standard track is 15 meters high) according to a randomly set route. The one with the shortest final time wins.
