The 15th National Games, with the concept of "national sports and benefiting the people", has sparked a nationwide fitness craze. From professional sports venues to the streets and alleys, people can fully experience the charm of sports, and their enthusiasm for sports continues to rise. At around 7 pm, there was a lively scene on the circular track of Yunan County Sports Center in Yunfu City, Guangdong Province. Running friends chase after each other, sweating profusely; Parents take their children to jump rope, walk briskly, and enjoy parent-child time; Groups of three or five elderly friends dance and do exercises together. On the basketball court, intense confrontations occasionally take place, with cheers and cheers echoing one after another; In the Peak Arena, the crisp sound of hitting balls is incessant... "The 15th National Games is like a fitness signal light, and the strong sports atmosphere has inspired many people. ”Ms. Lai, a resident of Yunfu, said, "The sports facilities near our homes are becoming more and more perfect. Whenever we have free time, we go out to exercise, our bodies are better and our mood is better!" The energetic fitness picture slowly unfolded.

Shiweitang Street, Liwan District, Guangzhou, Guangdong fully utilizes the community's "golden corner and silver edge" to embed fitness facilities into residents' daily life flow, making the sports map at their doorstep more abundant. Retired resident Mr. Li sighed, "In the past, we had to look for venues everywhere to play basketball, but now we can start the game downstairs. My neighbors and I have become friends." Each piece of sports field brings new vitality to community life. The 15th National Games will take the "National Games Benefit the People Project" as the starting point to promote the continuous improvement of fitness facilities. To create a 15 minute fitness circle, Guangzhou has added or renovated more than 100 community sports parks and laid nearly 300 fitness paths. In addition, the "Ten Thousand Village Women's Social Sports Instructor Training Program" has been implemented. Over the past three years, Guangdong has trained nearly 500 rural women's social sports instructors, covering 460 administrative villages and enhancing the enthusiasm of rural residents to participate in fitness.

The Hong Kong competition area has set up experience areas near multiple competition venues, which are open to the public for free. In the public beach volleyball experience area near Victoria Park, people step barefoot on the "National Games style" beach, serve and cushion... The Hong Kong Volleyball Association has arranged for athletes and coaches to provide on-site guidance, allowing everyone to better experience the fun of beach volleyball.

On the main streets of Macau, banners and mascots of the 15th National Games can be seen everywhere. After the start of the 15th National Games, multiple communities in Macau held a variety of cultural and sports activities, bringing the spirit of striving and advancing on the field into the communities and integrating it into the daily lives of residents. At the former site of Yilong Cannon Factory, the "15th National Games Cheer Up Community Fun Day" event attracted many people. Mr. Lin, a resident of Macau, stated that the National Games provide Macau residents with the opportunity to watch high-level events up close, and convenient measures such as "face recognition clearance" also facilitate Macau residents to watch the games in other cities in the Greater Bay Area. At the Sports Carnival event in the circular area of Taipa Sports Ground, many children excitedly said that they had recently watched volleyball and three player basketball matches at the 15th National Games and hoped to represent the Macau team in the National Games when they grew up. The event organizer stated that the next step will be to collaborate with other cities in the Greater Bay Area to carry out more mass sports activities and jointly create a healthy and upward lifestyle.
