    At present, the six categories of special sports skills commonly used in the domestic education and sports systems refer to ball sports, track and field sports, gymnastics sports, water or ice and snow sports, traditional Chinese sports, and emerging sports. This classification is clearly defined in the 2022 version of the compulsory education physical education and health curriculum standards. Usually, schools offer special physical education classes and physical training institutions on the market schedule classes, which are basically based on this framework.

    You usually go to the gym to play badminton with your friends after get off work, and you take your kids to football and basketball classes on weekends. The most popular sports are ball games. The threshold for reaching a wide audience is low. A novice can get sweaty even if he touches the camera for half an hour. It has full social attributes.

    To talk about the foundation of all special sports, it must be track and field sports. To put it bluntly, it is the three major events of running, jumping and shooting. Don’t think running around the playground is boring. Your jumping ability in basketball and your explosive power in back and forth running in badminton are all based on track and field training. Many professional teams first test their basic track and field abilities when selecting young people.

    When many people hear gymnastics, they think of competitive events such as the balance beam and horizontal bar. In fact, the aerobics we usually do, the cheerleading we often perform in school sports games, and the trampoline that children love to jump on are all included in this category. The core training is the coordination and flexibility of the body, which is also particularly beneficial to children's posture adjustment.

    Water or ice and snow sports have become very popular in the past two years. In summer, swimming pools are packed with dumplings. More and more people are playing niche sports such as paddleboarding and surfing. In winter, ski resorts are full of children wearing protective gear. Reservations for trial lessons in curling and figure skating have to be queued for a long time. Many people learn this not only to practice skills, but also to have a new choice for leisure and relaxation.

    Traditional Chinese sports are our unique category, including martial arts, dragon and lion dance, Tai Chi, archery, and even diabolo and shuttlecock kicking that everyone played in childhood. Now many schools offer school-based martial arts classes. Last time I went to the sports and culture festival in the district, I saw junior high school students forming a team to perform Nanquan, which was very impressive.

    The emerging sports category is even more interesting. Frisbee, skateboarding, rock climbing, orienteering, and offensive and defensive arrows that young people have loved in the past two years are all here. There are not so many rigid rules and restrictions, and it is full of fun when playing. Many cities now have dedicated emerging sports communities. You can arrange a game on the weekend and take into account social fitness.

    However, I have talked with many friends who are doing sports training at the front line, and everyone has different opinions. Many people think that merging water and ice and snow into one category is a bit too general. After all, the applicable seasons, venue requirements, and skill logic of the two categories are quite different, so when doing When it comes to camp and research sports, many people will split water and ice and snow into two categories, and add an outdoor survival category to form a new six categories. This division is more in line with the actual needs of commercial operations. Each of the two categories has its own applicable scenarios, and there is no absolute right or wrong.
