Coach serves up table tennis skills for students

Guan Yan is a table tennis coach at Shuiman center school in Wuzhishan city of Hainan province. In December 2021, Guan Yan and her husband settled in Wuzhishan city to encourage more local children of different ethnic groups to try out table tennis.

When Guan arrived at the school, she and her husband picked more than 40 children to teach and help improve their abilities. During the training, the students would often take more than four hours practicing skills under her instruction. Faced with difficulties and challenges, these young children insist on their studies and hope they can become table tennis champions.
