These competitions have their own anthem, mascot and slogan, but there will be no Russian athletes.

Where and when

From August 19 to 30 in Taipei. Brasilia and Turkish Izmir argued for the right to host the competition. Taiwan is the only country among the applicants where the Universiade has not been held before. In Brazil, student games were held in 1963, and Turkey hosted athletes in 2005. Taipei's bid was approved by the International University Sports Federation on November 29, 2011.

For the capital of the Republic of China, these competitions will generally become the largest and most significant sporting event throughout the history of the island nation. All tickets for the Opening Ceremony, which will take place on August 19, were sold out a month ago.

Sports

For a week and a half, athletes will compete for 275 sets of awards in 22 sports. In addition to the fourteen compulsory events that are presented at each Summer Universiade, organizing committee eight more were added. Six of them have previously been student games: archery, badminton, baseball, golf, taekwondo and weightlifting. Wushu and roller sports will make their debut at the Universiade this year.

Most awards will traditionally be played by representatives athletics- 50 sets of medals, in swimming athletes will compete for 42 sets, in taekwondo - for 23 sets.

Symbolism

For the logo of the Universiade, a Chinese character was chosen, which means "north" and is an abbreviation of Taipei. The designer's lines reflect the city's constant pursuit of excellence and innovation. An obligatory element in the logo is five stars, which, like the Olympic rings, represent the five continents.

The official slogan of the competition is “For you. For young people".

The Universiade also has its own mascot - a black bear named Bravo. He was chosen as the mascot via online voting. The white stripes on the chest are made in the shape of the letter V, which means victory. Also, this letter is the ribbon for the bear's gold medal.

Universiade

The Universiade has its own hymn. The lyrics for the song Embrace the World with You were written by the famous Chinese singer Chris Wu. In the composition, in addition to national motifs, the rumba rhythm is used. The song is about friendship and world peace.

Russian team

The University Sports Federation has set a plan for this Universiade of 40 gold medals. To accomplish this task, well-known and titled athletes, winners and prize-winners of world championships and Olympic Games. So, divers Ilya Zakharov and Evgeny Kuznetsov, archer Tuyana Dashidzhieva, weightlifter Artem Okulov and others will compete for our team.

Representatives of track and field athletics will not be able to speak at the Universiade. The Russian Student Union was unable to register athletes to participate in the games.

“Our athletes will not perform at the Universiade in any status, so nothing happened. It was planned that 11 people would go there, but we never received any clarification from International Federation collegiate sports on how neutral athletes will compete. It was not clear how to enter them into the database,” Sergey Seiranov, president of the Russian Sports Student Union, told TASS.

Taipei had to endure some serious competition. After all, his competitors were the capital of Brazil and Turkish Izmit. Both contenders had impressive experience in holding international competitions, including university games. The fact that Taiwan is a partially recognized state also played a minus for Taipei, many countries consider it an integral part of mainland China.

Championship sports facilities

The most cutting-edge arenas are at the service of students from all over the world. All of them were either built recently or built specifically for the competition. Here is a list of newly built indoor facilities that are ready to host athletes:

Taipei Dome(Taipei dome);
Taipei Tennis Center(Taipei Tennis Center);
Taipei Basketball Gymnasium(Taipei Basketball University);
Taipei Arena(Taipei Arena).

Summer Universiade logo

The emblem of the youth championship is five multi-colored petals, soaring up in a single dance. As conceived by the organizers, such a composition symbolizes "the desire for excellence."

The mascot will be a black and gray bear with a gold medal around his neck. The victoriously uplifted paws of the "clubfoot" will have to "motivate athletes to dedication and striving for excellence." The competition also has a slogan: "For You - For Youth".

roller sport.

If weightlifting has returned to competitive practice, then wushu and roller sports will be presented at university games for the first time.

Who will be the leader of the medal standings of the Summer Universiade 2017

The Taiwanese team does not have enough stars from the sky, so it is hardly worth expecting a victorious sprint from the athletes of the host country. In previous draws, the top three were distributed as follows:

Gwangju ( South Korea), 2015:

South Korea;
Russia;
China.

Kazan (Russia), 2013:

Russia;
China;
Japan.

Shenzhen (China), 2011:

China;
Russia;
South Korea.

Belgrade (Serbia), 2009:

Russia;
China;
South Korea.

Bangkok (Thailand), 2007:

China;
Russia;
Ukraine.

Izmir (Turkey), 2005:

Russia;
China;
Japan.

Daegu (South Korea), 2003:

China;
Russia;
South Korea.

Beijing (China), 2001:

China;
Russia.

As can be seen from the list, the leaders are three countries: Russia, China and South Korea. Therefore, they are likely to be the leaders of the final table of the Summer Universiade 2017. However, politics can interfere in sports once again. There has already been a precedent when, in response to the Taiwanese government's harsh attacks, Chinese officials threatened to boycott the university games. Let's hope that political discord will bypass the upcoming Universiade!

Afterword

So, now you know when the tournament will take place, how much competitive disciplines fans will see and who claims to win in the unofficial standings. So buy tickets or even offer yourself as a volunteer. Fortunately, the registration of volunteers for the Universiade is still ongoing. Well, for those fans who do not have the opportunity to attend competitions in Taiwan with their own hands, there will always be sports channels that will broadcast round-the-clock television broadcasts!
