(Central News Agency reporter Li Chien-chung, Nagoya, 22nd) Because the competition venues for the Nagoya Asian Games are relatively scattered, the Sports Administration, in collaboration with the National Sports Training Center, has set up relay stations. Today, they inspected the Toyohashi Civic Center in Toyohashi, which is located close to the karate and taekwondo venues. During the games, it will provide services such as meal delivery and athlete training.
Following the precedents of past Asian and Olympic Games, the Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee and the National Sports Training Center have collaborated to set up three relay stations: in downtown Nagoya, Toyohashi, and a satellite station in Tokyo. At the Toyohashi Civic Center, plans include renting a kitchen, two tatami rooms, and an indoor comprehensive sports field.
Although the Toyohashi Civic Center is somewhat remote and less convenient in terms of transportation, the Sports Administration and the National Sports Training Center have made preliminary plans to station 14 personnel there, equipped with five 9-seater buses, to provide athletes with transportation to and from the venues as well as meal delivery services.
Hung Chih-chang, Administrative Deputy Minister of the Sports Administration, stated during a media interview that this relay station is only a 20-minute drive from the competition venues for taekwondo and karate athletes. Therefore, it will be able to provide meal delivery services, as well as support for athletes' pre-match warm-ups and post-match recovery.
Hung Chih-chang mentioned that green wave mats will be laid out in the indoor sports field to provide a training space for athletes who are not yet competing. "After all, both taekwondo and karate competitions conclude one weight class per day. So, athletes who are not yet scheduled to compete can come here to train." (Editor: Chang Ming-kun) 1150422
