It's Spring Festival in China, a time to switch to vacation mode. But a group of ice hockey players are still training in Beijing Sport University for the upcoming U20 World Championship.

These under 20 years old will compete in Gangneung, a city in the northeastern part of South Korea, at the 2020 IIHF (International Ice Hockey Federation) Ice Hockey U20 World Championship Division 2, Group B event starting on Monday.

The China U20 team have been promoted to Division 2 in 2019 with a clean sweep of all five matches, and this year, they are trying to move up to the next group again.
