In the evening of April 26, the Fenghua Sports Center Stadium was ablaze with lights and buzzing with excitement as the "Ascential Cup" Fenghua District "Factory Super League" Staff Football Tournament kicked off in high spirits. All 29 participating teams made a collective appearance, joining thousands of spectators in witnessing this grand sporting event.

The event commenced at 7 p.m., with intense drumbeats and fluttering red silk setting the stage as the 29 teams entered the field one by one. Standing on the green pitch, the players, dressed in unified attire and full of energy, showcased the positive and spirited demeanor of contemporary young workers. Fenghua-native national youth football player Wang Yudong sent his blessings to the hometown tournament via video. In the subsequent opening match, the thrilling showdown between Yujia Dynamics and Yunshang Dayan kept the audience on the edge of their seats. The players demonstrated tacit coordination in passing, sprinting, tackling, shooting, and saves. The very first game highlighted both the competitive level and the fighting spirit of staff football, drawing frequent rapturous applause and cheers from the stands.

The "Factory Super League" adopts an 8-a-side format and will run until July, with the 29 teams competing in group stages to vie for the championship. Following the "Village Super League" basketball tournament, this football event is the second large-scale mass sports brand sports event organized by the Fenghua District Social Organization Association and the largest football tournament in the district. Beyond the matches, the "Factory Super League" also features side activities such as the "Best Staff Photography Award", musical performances, football-themed fun games, and interactive stamp-collecting, with 60 local social organizations deeply involved. By integrating culture and sports, the event mobilizes social resources, transforming the "Factory Super League" into a stage for public enjoyment and writing a new chapter in Fenghua’s cultural and sports life.

"This is my first time watching a football match live, and the atmosphere here has me feeling exhilarated," said Wu Feihong, a resident who made a special trip to attend the opening game. Through its "event+" model, the "Factory Super League" has not only ignited competitive passion on the field but also become a dynamic platform to uplift community morale and enrich public cultural life.

More than just a sporting “feast", the "Factory Super League" is a vivid practice of mobilizing, organizing, and serving the public. During the opening match, the volunteers’ red vests stood out vividly along the sidelines, with 100 volunteers actively assisting in crowd order control, traffic guidance, and player support. Throughout the three-month tournament, they will remain "on-call", providing the warmest service to spectators and teams alike.
