Identifying physical education in schools as an important content, a compulsory subject in the educational program of all levels, aiming to equip children and students with basic knowledge and movement skills, forming the habit of practicing physical exercise and sports to improve health, develop physical strength and stature, contributing to the implementation of comprehensive education goals.

…to prestigious arenas
Luu Thi Duyen and Hoang Thi Duyen are the most prominent names in Lao Cai high-performance sports in recent years. The "golden girls" of the borderland have "made waves" in international boxing and weightlifting arenas such as SEA Games, ASIAD, winning prestigious medals for their homeland and country... What is special is that both Luu Thi Duyen and Hoang Thi Duyen are not "children of the sport family" but were sought and discovered at school sports activities in Pho Lu town, Bao Thang district and Dong Tuyen commune, Lao Cai city.
It is known that in order to discover sports talents, every year the "scouts" of the Provincial Sports Training and Competition Center must spread out to districts, towns, cities, and even to neighboring provinces such as Lai Chau, Yen Bai, and Ha Giang to "pave the sand for gold".
The provincial Sports Training and Competition Center is currently training 16 cyclists, of which 6 are currently playing for the national youth cycling team. What is special is that these 6 cyclists are all ethnic minorities, coming from villages and hamlets in the province. Specifically, racer Chao Ong Lu Phim, Dao ethnic group, Ta Phoi commune, Lao Cai city; racer Ly Do Xe, Ha Nhi ethnic group, Y Ty commune, Bat Xat district; racer Vang Van Sang, Giay ethnic group, Muong Hum commune, Bat Xat district; racer Hang A Sinh, Mong ethnic group, Ham Rong ward, Sa Pa town; racer Ban Thi Vang, Dao ethnic group, Xuan Quang commune, Bao Thang district; racer Hoang Thi Tham, Tay ethnic group, Hop Thanh commune, Lao Cai city. Before becoming the "red seeds" of high-performance sports in Lao Cai in particular and Vietnam in general, these racers all came from rural areas, even remote areas, ethnic minority areas, with many difficult economic and social conditions.
Mr. Nguyen Tien Luc, cycling coach, Provincial Sports Training and Competition Center said: With the help and introduction of physical education teachers, we have selected students with qualities suitable for cycling in general and sports in particular. What surprised us was that students in mountainous areas often meet the criteria better than their peers in cities and towns, including important criteria such as endurance, cardiovascular system and good willpower.
It is known that most of the talents of Lao Cai high-performance sports were discovered by coaches and scouts at schools. Thus, it can be affirmed that school sports have made very positive and important contributions in training and nurturing sports talents for the province in recent times.
Mr. Nong Quang Duc, Director of the Provincial Sports Training and Competition Center, affirmed: In recent years, all levels, sectors, localities and units in the province have paid great attention to physical training and sports activities, improving people's health. It can be said that mass sports in general and schools in particular have made very positive contributions to the development of high-performance sports. Mass sports are truly the cradle, producing many talents for high-performance sports. Through our training and coaching, they have become excellent factors, competing successfully and bringing glory to the homeland and the country.
Although certain results have been achieved, physical education and sports activities in schools need to continue to receive more attention, in order to perfect motor skills, support the implementation of physical education goals, especially developing talents to have more talents for high-performance sports in Lao Cai.
