The Hong Kong team achieved historic results of 1 gold, 2 silver and 3 bronze in the Tokyo Olympics.

Liu Yongsong, a professor in the Department of Sports and Health at Baptist University, criticized on the Hong Kong and Taiwan program "Millennium" this morning that the level of TV commentators is insufficient. Professional coaches should be hired to analyze the tactics and techniques of the event to the public.

"The parallel between entertainment and professionalism is very important. At the moment, we don't have enough talents."


Liu also pointed out that disabled sports have incredible difficulty and beauty. For example, tennis mobilization needs to control wheelchairs and use tennis courts with the same area as normal games. Hit the ball, "I personally talk about four words, it's incredible!"

Regarding the five sports support measures announced by the government earlier, Liu Yongsong believes that although they cannot fully cover all areas, they are already "a good start."

He specifically mentioned the broadcasting rights, referring to the fact that in the past, a single commercial organization purchased the broadcasting rights, which resulted in restrictions for citizens to watch the Olympics.

But the government's purchase of broadcasting rights can avoid vicious competition. In addition to lowering the price tag, the public can also watch the Olympics from multiple TV stations.

However, Liu Yongsong was worried about whether the Paralympic Games could take on the momentum. He pointed out that the public may not be familiar with sports with disabilities. "How about playing badminton? How about points? No one knows." He took the opportunity to explain that sports with disabilities. It can be divided into 3 categories, including intellectual disability, visual disability, and disability. Compared with the Summer Olympics, it is more complicated. It means that citizens can see the incredible difficulty and beauty of disability sports on TV.

He took the tennis event as an example. Although the rules allow a player to touch the ground twice before hitting the ball, the athlete needs to control the wheelchair and hit the ball on the tennis court with the same area as the normal game. "I personally say that there are four Words, incredible!"

Liu also pointed out that recent newspapers have also questioned the professionalism of TV commentators, saying that their problems have increased pressure on athletes and mood swings.

He suggested that commentators should hire professional coaches who can analyze the tactics and techniques of the event to the public.

"The balance between entertainment and professionalism is very important. At present, we don't have enough talents."

Liu finally suggested that if you want the public to pay attention to the Paralympic Games, it is necessary to spread the public's awareness of the Paralympic rules, followed by live broadcast of the game to allow more people to watch it, and to hire professional commentators.

"The standards are the same as the rules. It is not well known. Even if the on-demand is unobtrusive, there is no way out of the summer Olympic atmosphere."
