The average age of participants in the National Skills Competition is young, why are there few middle-aged and elderly people?

In recent years, the average age of players participating in the National Skills Competition is getting younger and younger, and fewer and fewer middle-aged people are participating in the competition. So what exactly is the cause of this phenomenon?

With age, people's ability to process information and solve problems will gradually decline, that is to say, middle-aged and elderly people's ability to observe analogies, deductive reasoning ability is significantly weaker than that of young people, while middle-aged and elderly people are rich in practical experience, the ability to adapt to the scene is stronger, so the middle-aged and elderly people want to win the competition, relying on excellent practical experience and clinical play. Participants in the National Skills Competition has passed a round of screening, both in terms of practical experience, or psychological quality are very strong, the competition between the players is the information processing and processing, problem-solving ability, so it is difficult for middle-aged and elderly people to win such a competition, usually stop before the final round of the competition, even if they barely enter the final round, it is difficult to achieve good results.

The National Skills Competition often involves the use of some of the more advanced technology, young people in the learning of new knowledge and skills in the ability to stronger, more forward-looking and innovative spirit, more willing to contact the new things, and the elderly will be relatively conservative, and therefore in the two sides will be competing, the old and the middle-aged will be in a clear disadvantage, and can not be selected for the National Skills Competition.

In the age of talent, there is an endless stream of talented young people, so the middle-aged and the elderly will retreat and become mentors to train the best young players. As in the case of China's table tennis team, there is a steady stream of talented young players, and very few of them can stay in the game until they are 30 years old. On the one hand, this has to do with the athletes' declining physical abilities, which make it impossible for them to play better on the field, and on the other hand, it has to do with the updating of playing techniques and changes in the tournament system, which make it difficult for the old athletes to change their skills to adapt to a new tournament system. Of course, creating competition opportunities for new players is also one of the important reasons why many middle-aged and old-aged players no longer participate in the competition, which is also a very valuable practice.

As the saying goes, "the color blue is better than the color blue", no matter how brilliant the middle-aged and old people are, they will be overtaken by the young people as the years go by. Young people strong is China strong, as the elderly and seniors, not only to create the conditions for young people to become strong, but also to face the young people's strength, for the young people's progress and beyond to feel gratified, and to encourage the young people to move forward, and continue to create brilliant. As a young person, must also treat their seniors with humility and respect, humbly learn from them knowledge and skills and valuable experience, and share with them new technical achievements, hand in hand *** with progress.
