The World Masters Games is set to take place in May next year! Its mascot “Strong” will be featured on the Danhai Light Rail, the Bannan MRT Line, the Circular MRT Line, and the Taoyuan Airport MRT Line to help spread the word about the event.
New Taipei Mayor Hou Yu-ih (侯友宜) said that 27,000 athletes from 130 countries have registered to compete. Hou said that he has signed up for the table tennis competition himself and encouraged everyone to quickly register, as spots are filling up fast. Chen Szu-yuan (陳詩園), archer and silver Olympic medalist, as well as other Olympic medalists from the 1984 and 1992 Games are also expected to attend.
In deciding whether or not to register, maybe we can remind ourselves that life is just a game and it’s never too late to master the art of having fun or exercise your right to play.
