As a key part of the 2024 inaugural Shanxi Urban Sports Week, the two-day competition sees eight elite sailing teams from Tianjin, Beijing, Shenzhen, and Taiyuan compete using the DC20 and DC22 boats at international sailing standards.

The Jinyang and Jinmaofu Sailing teams represented Taiyuan. Sailing has recently gained popularity in Taiyuan, with the water sports center and Jinyang Lake Park offering training and experience activities.

Jinyang Lake is a picturesque spot in Taiyuan with expansive waters and abundant recreational facilities. Pier 5 at Jinyang Lake Park has become the starting point for sailing activities in Shanxi, providing citizens with opportunities for sightseeing, team-building, educational programs, and sailing experiences.

Teams competed in multiple rounds to vie for top honors. The awards ceremony, scheduled for the evening of Oct 12, will announce the top three rankings for both boat types.
