Chengdu Universiade is in full swing, but the careful audience found that the basketball and volleyball matches were wonderful and intense. There is no football match in the schedule of the Universiade. Although it has the reputation of "Little Olympics", the project settings are different. After the last Universiade in Naples, football was no longer the official event of the Universiade. In fact, football has not entered the Universiade for a long time. 1985 Kobe Universiade, football became an official event.
There are 18 major events and 269 minor events in Chengdu Universiade, which will produce 269 gold medals. Among them, track and field, gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, diving, swimming, archery, fencing, badminton, table tennis, judo, taekwondo, basketball, volleyball and water polo are compulsory items 15, while martial arts, rowing and shooting are three optional items.
Logo of Chengdu Universiade:
The Universiade logo is the U-shaped Sun God Bird logo. Sunbird was chosen as the symbol of the Universiade, which is one of the symbolic elements of ancient Shu civilization and Tianfu culture. In ancient times, the sun god bird carried people's desire and determination to pursue light, hoping to show the positive mental outlook of self-improvement and high spirits in Tianfu culture.
On the left side of the Universiade emblem, the "phoenix head" is abstracted by arc cutting, and on the right side, the "phoenix tail" is abstracted by fusing flame elements, depicting a lifelike bird hovering in the sky. Sunbird not only contains the tenacity of nirvana and rebirth, but also expresses the hope of flying dreams, which perfectly fits the slogan of "Let every dream come true in Chengdu" of the Universiade and conveys good wishes from China to the whole world.
