As a player fell down, the referee suspended the game. Two green figures rushed into the court. They quickly ran to the spot where the player had fallen, methodically spread out their towels and scrubbed the ground for a few seconds, and then left the court immediately.

This happened several times on October 1st., when the Women’s Basketball match between Republic of Korea and Chinese Taipei took place in the Hangzhou Olymipic Sports Centre. Those green figures working hard on the court are the volunteers.

“In addition to the amazing match, what impressed me most was those volunteers.” said Nancy, a 15 year old spectator who was there to watch the game. Those volunteers have been waiting beside the court to scrub the ground when some fell down and pushing the mops orderly to clean the floor during breaks. Their efficient work became a remarkable view.



Not only do these young people work as cleaners, but they also take part in almost every service needed during the games. According to the Asian Games, a number of 36 thousand young volunteers were selected from 46 universities in Zhejiang. They served in more than 90 competition venues, covering more than 10 fields such as competition operation, registration and certification service, concierge and language service, opening and ending ceremony, audience organization, media operation, transportation, official conference and information services.

The new era is the era for the youngsters. The spirit of the era is the spirit of youth, the character of the era is the character of the youth. Those volunteers who have contributed to the Asian Games draw the youth of the new era with dedication and responsibility. They do not only work for the Asian Games, but also devote to the human world.

“We should highly respect these volunteers, I’m really proud of them and I’ll learn from them.” said Nancy. It is the belief in youth that makes our spiritual sky more vast. It is the pursuit of youth that makes our picture of the times more gorgeous. It is the ambition of youth that makes our struggle coordinate more loftily. As young people, let’s make our contributions to our human world together.
