The crisp clashing sound of rackets and badminton balls resounds, and all the souls who love sports gather at this moment! At 13:30 on the afternoon of November 14, 2025, the company's "Vigorous Competition · 'Badminton Etiquette' Together" themed badminton tournament officially kicked off. The men's singles, women's singles, and mixed doubles events were held in turn. The athletes made friends through badminton, interpreted their passion through hard work, and gathered strength through collaboration.

Pre-match message: Establish oneself with courtesy and gather with friendship

Before the competition began, the stadium was already crowded with people. The contestants were warming up and getting ready, rubbing their hands in anticipation. General Manager Yang Haidong of the company came to the scene in person and delivered a pre-competition motivational speech, instilling the core spirit of "Li Zheng Lai" into the hearts of every participant.

"Treat each other with courtesy", abiding by the competition rules is the basic principle. Respect the cooperation of teammates, respect the efforts of opponents, and most importantly, absolutely obey the referee's decisions. Let etiquette run through the entire competition. "Establishing oneself with integrity" and fair competition are the fundamental colors of the sports spirit. Everyone should adhere to the bottom line, compete based on strength, refrain from taking shortcuts, and let integrity be the footnote of every score. The significance of the "Gathering with Affection" team-building activity is never limited to winning or losing. "Friendship first, competition second" is our original aspiration. I hope everyone can win glory in the competition, receive applause in the competition, cultivate tacit understanding on the field, and gain the affection of moving forward side by side in team-building activities.

Finally, Mr. Yang smiled and wished every contestant could perform at their best and win the prizes and rankings they had in mind! Announce the official start of the competition! As the words were spoken, thunderous applause broke out on the spot, and a competitive feast that combined passion and warmth thus began.

Competition rules: Fair play, strength reigns supreme

To ensure the fairness, impartiality and professionalism of the competition, clear and standardized rules have been formulated for this event. The competition adopts a best-of-three format, with each set being 15 points. When the score reaches 14 points, a player must lead by 2 points to win. The maximum score of each set does not exceed 21 points. The serving rules strictly follow the standards of international badminton competitions.

In terms of the competition schedule, all events will first select the finalists through a single-elimination system. After advancing to the semi-finals, the top three in each event will be determined in a round-robin format based on the final points. The rewards are even more generous. For each event, there will be one champion, one runner-up and one third-place winner. The champion, runner-up and third-place winners will receive exquisite gift packages of different amounts. In addition, all participants will receive exclusive participation awards, ensuring that every effort is rewarded.

Moments on the field: Every drop of sweat shines brightly

The competition kicked off with the men's singles and women's singles events. The opponents and participation numbers were determined by random draw on the spot. The four venues started the competition simultaneously, creating a lively atmosphere.

Women's singles: Women are no less capable than men, full of fighting spirit, striving for the grand prize

Due to the relatively small number of participants in the women's group, the top four teams were directly determined after the first round of elimination matches and advanced to the round-robin points system. As long as they can get through the first round, they will have the chance to take home the prize. Such a schedule has greatly boosted the fighting spirit of the female players. On the court, they were agile and their steps were vigorous. Sometimes they would drop the ball lightly, and sometimes they would smash it powerfully. The small badminton shuttles would shuttle back and forth between their rackets. Every precise return would draw continuous cheers from the sidelines. Everyone's eyes were determined, and they all had a strong will in their hearts, vowing to take the exquisite gift package home and show it off. Although the competition venue was small, the atmosphere of competition was intense.

Men's singles: A dual battle of strength and wisdom

The men's singles court can be described as" "Wild Battlefield" The contestants' burly figures and powerful muscles, with each swing of the racket accompanied by a low burst of sound, fully display the masculinity of men. But this competition is by no means merely a collision of strength; it also conceals a contest of wisdom. The players frequently used drop shots to control the landing point. The fluctuating distance of the ball constantly consumed their opponents' energy, while the player being moved needed to quickly adjust their pace and judge the way to return the shuttlecock at the moment it landed, moving forward, backward, jumping and swinging. A series of movements were smooth and fluid.

 

Mixed doubles: A well-coordinated partnership, reaching the peak together

The mixed doubles event, as the grand finale, features all the top players from the singles competition. After all the singles matches were over, the players took a short break at halftime to regain their energy and then threw themselves into new battles. Compared with singles, doubles tests the teamwork and reaction speed among teammates more. A glance, a timely cover, or a reminder of tacit understanding are all key to victory.

As most of the participants are top-ranked singles powerhouses, the entertainment value of the doubles venue is directly maximized. The overwhelming momentum during the smash, the meticulous defense, and the seamless teamwork - every thrilling moment kept the audience on the sidelines staring intently. Cheers and shouts of encouragement rose and fell in succession, and everyone was cheering for this high-level showdown to the fullest.

Glory Moment: Both prizes and friendship are reaped

After several hours of intense competition, all the events have come to an end. The top three in each event have been determined, and the exquisite gift packages have finally received their owners. Standing on the podium, the winning contestants held their prizes in their hands with bright smiles. This was not only an acknowledgement of their abilities but also a reward for their spirit of hard work.

The contestants who did not win awards also returned with full loads. Although the participation awards were light, they carried the wonderful memories and precious friendships during the competition. Everyone high-fived and hugged each other, giving thumbs up to their opponents' wonderful performances and expressing gratitude for their teammates' joint efforts.

This "Vigorous Competition · Badminton Etiquette Together" badminton tournament not only allowed everyone to relieve stress through sports but also deeply ingrained the core spirit of "Etiquette Comes" in people's hearts. Competition has winners and losers, but friendship has no end. In the future, may we carry forward the fighting spirit and tacit understanding on the field, and move forward hand in hand in our work to create more wonderful moments!
