GASC recognizes voluntary programs
China DailyVoluntary service fitness programs, organized by sports-for-all associations and clubs, have played a vital role in attracting more people to engage in fitness and sports. The growth is boosted by the growing number of voluntary service fitness programs across the nation, which are organized by local sports bureaus, sports-for-all associations and clubs. The Sport For All Department of the General Administration of Sport of China last week awarded 50 outstanding voluntary service fitness programs, which were selected from 254 programs collated by the sports ministry this year. Apart from competitive sports programs, the voluntary programs cover a wide range of activities including free guided community fitness training, customized sports services to people with disabilities and online fitness challenges.
