It is nothing new for athletes to be sent to universities in our country. As we all know, many professional athletes in our country began to enter sports schools to receive special training at an early age and appeared in professional competitions, which also made many athletes lose the opportunity to enter the university campus. In view of this situation, the State Sports General Administration has formulated corresponding regulations, and all athletes who can meet the corresponding standards can apply for the opportunity to enter the university.
This move by the State Sports General Administration aims to encourage athletes to achieve better results on the field, hoping to provide a broader platform for these outstanding athletes to improve their comprehensive quality and perform better in new fields after retirement.
