Chapter 2374

Among these nearly one hundred teams, various townships, various county-level departments, and various bureaus naturally signed up to participate, and many enterprises in the Economic Development Zone also formed teams to participate.

These enterprises had many workers, among whom there were many young people, so naturally, many signed up. This was a very normal thing.

Because Su Xinghui had good physical fitness, he could be considered a sports star when he was in middle school, and his soccer and basketball levels were quite good. However, before his rebirth, he was already over forty and hadn't played much ball for several years. After his rebirth, because he was too busy with work, he hadn't played much ball either.

Calculating this way, he hadn't played much ball for more than ten years. This time, signing up to participate in this basketball tournament was a move he made to boost morale and accumulate popularity for this ball game tournament to welcome the National Day. Sure enough, as soon as he signed up, the number of teams signing up for the basketball tournament suddenly increased a lot.

The person registering for Su Xinghui was Zhao Siqi. Seeing Su Xinghui sign up for the basketball tournament, Zhao Siqi said with a smile: "Secretary Su, why don't you sign up for the soccer tournament and the badminton tournament as well, and help our County Party Committee win a few more championships?"

Su Xinghui said: "Speaking of which, I'm okay at playing soccer. I was on the school team in middle school and was also the class team captain in college. However, I haven't played for many years. Besides, I'm too busy with work now, so I can't handle signing up for so many items. Let's forget it."

Zhao Siqi felt a bit regretful. He felt that with Su Xinghui's good physique, he must also be a good hand at playing soccer and badminton. If he participated in these two items, it was really possible to bring back all three championships. Not to mention anything else, he was a County Party Secretary; who would dare to play hard against him?

However, he also knew that Su Xinghui's work was indeed too busy. Participating in a ball game tournament definitely required training. Su Xinghui signing up for one item was already enough to handle. If he signed up for three, he would have no time for work at all.

Just like that, Su Xinghui became a member of the County Party Committee basketball team and became the captain. Speaking of which, if someone else were the captain, who would dare to be? Su Xinghui also understood this point, so he didn't act coy and readily took on the position of captain.

The training time was arranged every afternoon after work. It was September now, and it was still very bright for more than an hour after work, which was enough for them to train.

Su Xinghui asked Zhao Siqi to send someone to the county's small commodity market to buy a set of jerseys and sneakers for everyone on the team. The budget for each person was less than one hundred. What they bought were naturally knock-offs, but the quality was not bad. With just this set of equipment, they put them on and started training.

There were a total of nine people signed up for the County Party Committee basketball team. Su Xinghui and Xia Song both signed up, and the rest were all young people around thirty years old. No one too old signed up.

This afternoon, after work, Su Xinghui changed into his jersey and sneakers, went downstairs with Xia Song, and came to the basement of the county government office building. In this basement, there was a basketball court and a badminton court, which were for the staff to have a place to exercise after work.

As soon as Su Xinghui and Xia Song arrived, the basketball team members had all arrived. They were all a bit reserved in front of the County Party Secretary.

Su Xinghui asked Xia Song to join the team. He stood in front of the eight members, scanned them, and said: "Everyone, don't be nervous. We see each other every day, and I'm not a tiger. What are you afraid of?"

The joke Su Xinghui made made everyone laugh, and their reserve was suddenly eliminated quite a bit.

Su Xinghui said: "To tell you the truth, my ball playing was okay when I was in middle school, but I haven't played for several years now. My hands are already rusty, and I might be a bit unqualified to be the captain. But everyone gives me face, so I have no choice but to be this captain."

Everyone burst into laughter again.

Su Xinghui said: "No matter what, since I am the captain, I will set some rules."

Hearing that Su Xinghui wanted to set rules, everyone quickly put away their smiles and stood straight, looking at Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui said with a serious face: "Since we have signed up for the competition, we must aim for the championship. If we don't want to achieve good results, then signing up for the competition is meaningless. Therefore, everyone's training must be more serious. From now on, come to train every day after work. The competition will start this Saturday, so we only have five days of training time. We must seize the time. Does everyone understand?"

Everyone puffed out their chests and answered loudly: "Understood!"

Su Xinghui said: "Good, then let's start now. Everyone, dribble the ball and shoot the ball first, let me see your basic skills."

Everyone agreed and took turns dribbling and shooting. This time Zhao Siqi bought three balls, and everyone took turns, which was enough.
