As the Captain of the CUHK badminton team and Shaw College badminton team this year, I am very delighted to receive the award for Shaw College Sportsman. Playing badminton has been undoubtedly a part of my life since primary school, and it is one of the best ways to relieve pressure. It was a special occasion that I was elected as the captain of both the CUHK and Shaw College badminton teams. Unlike being a teammate, not only did I have to plan the training sessions for teammates, but also to monitor their training progress and mental healthiness. In badminton, the key to success is to recognize and strengthen your weaknesses, and to always seek a breakthrough. Things may not go well as we thought, obstacles are everywhere. The lesson I learnt in badminton reminded me of pushing myself to do better, and when you weather the storm, you will see a whole new picture.

There is no denying that studying is important, but the more important thing is to find your position. There are thousands of millions of ways for university life, and the matter is how to choose the unique one that fits you.
