Archery is relatively unpopular. How should China be promoted?

Although archery is an ancient sport, it was mostly used in hunting and war in ancient times! Later, it gradually evolved into a movement of self-cultivation that the nobility loved. Confucius, a famous thinker and educator in the pre-Qin period in China, loved archery alone and included it in the six arts of gentlemen. It can be seen how important archery is to the ancients. With the development of military science and technology and the advent of the firearms era, cold weapons such as bows and arrows have been gradually pulled off the stage of war, and bows and arrows that have lost the meaning of war have gradually evolved into sports and become dispensable toys in the hands of a few people with traditional consciousness.

In addition, due to the control of shooting sports in China for many years, most people have a low understanding of long-distance projection sports, and most people's psychology is in a strange and vague state. Backward cognition leads to archery being a minority sport at this stage. Internationally, compared with developed countries in Europe and America and Korea and Japan, it is still at a relatively backward level.

There are several suggestions for the promotion of archery: With the improvement of people's material living standards, archery will be more popular in people's lives. Archery can not only enhance physical fitness and promote physical health, but also relieve nerves and stress. Besides, China also has its own advantages. First of all, we have a long history and excellent culture, and China has huge market support. As long as all sectors of society recognize it, and the government attaches great importance to support and guidance, I believe that the China Archery Games will have a bright future.

We should strengthen the promotion of archery in China, do a good job in propaganda, and let the masses form a reasonable sense of physical exercise and health, and then actively participate in physical fitness. Although the country has installed a lot of sports equipment in rural areas, the utilization rate is very low. Mass sports in big cities are rich and colorful, but they also lack professional guidance for others to play. Sports should also start with dolls, and don't put learning first, which will lead to abnormal development of sports and is not conducive to all-round development.
