On September 20, the opening match of the "Sichuan Super League" will start, and the Chengdu team will play against Suining team at home. The first game is about to come. Yesterday, the Chengdu team of "Sichuan Super League" held several training camps at Chengdong Sports Park, Chenghua District to prepare for the opening match.
At 22:30 on September 10, the autumn rain fell. The Chengdu team of Sichuan Provincial Urban Football League held night training at Chengdong Sports Park in Chenghua District as scheduled.

"The night training arrangement is mainly to not affect the normal work, study and life of the players." Coach Fan Junchao said on the sidelines, "We specially chose such weather for training to make the players adapt to various competition environments." The training content was adjusted according to the weather conditions, and the focus was on practicing passing and receiving cooperation and tactical confrontation.
It is reported that the average age of the 50 people selected in the Chengdu team was 25.4 years old, and the team members covered more than ten industries such as civil servants, police officers, teachers, enterprise staff, self-employed, and college students. Among them, 8 players are from Chenghua District.
As a local player in Chenghua District, Zhu Shiling has a unique feeling about training in the rain. "When I was a child, I often played football on such rainy nights. Now I can train on professional lighting courts, which feels very different."

This 30-year-old wing-vangelist has never given up his football dream, although he is engaged in logistics management. "The rain battle can best reflect the enthusiasm of the footballer. Seeing the venue in such a good state in the rain, I really admire the care of the management team." During the training, Zhu Shiling made wonderful breakthroughs on the wing road many times, and the rain-soaked jersey could not cover up his technical movements.
As the main venue for this training, Chengdong Sports Park Football Stadium hosted various football competitions such as the 2021 China Football Association A League, 2023 CFA China Team Chengdu International Invitational, 2023 China Football Association A League, 2023 Chinese Football Association Cup, the 11th Chengdu National Fitness Games Football Competition and the 2024 Chengdu Urban Football League, and the 15th Chengdu Sports Games Mass Group Football Competition. Professional facilities and equipment bring players a better training experience.
The professional lighting in the stadium ensures even lighting in the entire stadium without dead corners, providing a perfect guarantee for night training. "The grass on the court is also very flat and comfortable!" The players reported that the field has moderate softness and hardness, which protects the knees and ankles well, reducing the risk of sports injuries.

At present, Chengdong Sports Park not only serves professional teams, but also opens to citizens. According to relevant personnel from the Chenghua District Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau, Chengdong Sports Park adopts the "government construction, professional operation, and openness to the people", which not only meets the needs of professional teams, but also serves ordinary citizens. "We see professional teams training here, which has further stimulated the children's enthusiasm for football." Mr. Liu, a citizen who brought his son to watch the training, said, "This demonstration effect is very important."
