The GanChao league brings together the passion and dreams of 11 cities across Jiangxi. CGTN's Mike Walter traveled to Ganzhou's "Bird's Nest" stadium to experience an electrifying football clash, as the local team hosted Yichun in a highly anticipated match-up. Over 40,000 fans created a roaring sea of sound, while local cultural performances added a unique flavor, blending sport with local pride. Affordable 9.9-yuan tickets fueled a "ticket-stub" economy, boosting tourism across the province. For Mike, GanChao is more than a competition; it's a vivid example of how grassroots sports can energize cities, unite communities and celebrate shared identity.
