According to a report on the website of Germany's "West Germany Report" on August 3, athletes from the Witten Rowing Club in Germany said that coming to the Chengdu Universiade was "like attending the Olympic Games".
According to the report, everything is grand and everything is loud. Finn Walter and Lucas Fubinger from Witten Rowing Club should take the race seriously now. Starting from Friday, the two rowers will represent Germany in the Summer Universiade in Chengdu, a city in southwest China.
The German delegation has 235 members. The two rowers of Witten Rowing Club were nominated a few weeks ago for their performance in the 2023 season. They have been in Chengdu for several days. They also watched the swimming competition live.
Walter said with deep feelings: "It's great to be able to participate in such a comprehensive sports meeting. It feels a bit like the Olympics I imagined. " Fubinger confirmed and added: "This is completely different from the scale of the world rowing championships we have participated in before. In addition, everything is well organized, and we have found good conditions for rowing quickly here. "
Two weeks ago, Finn Walter and partner Nikita Moore won the men's lightweight sculls at the U23 World Rowing Championships. The preliminaries of the Chengdu Universiade will be held on Friday, the rematch will be held on Saturday and the final will be held on Sunday. In this project, the German team's opponents are from China, Italy, the Netherlands and the United States.
According to the report, in 2025, the Universiade will be held in the Rhine-Ruhr region of Germany.
