As one of the seven benchmark events of the first "Shanghai Summer" International Consumption Season, the 2024 Shanghai Rolex Masters will be grandly held at the Qi Zhong Tennis Center of Jiushi Sports Stadium from September 30 to October 13.
From August 10 to 11, Bright Dairy held a caddie selection event at Shanghai LuOne CapitaLand Jingcui Plaza. Huang Ming, general manager of Shanghai Jiushi Sports Event Operation Management Co., Ltd., the operator and promoter of the Shanghai Rolex Masters, attended the event.
This year's caddie selection is themed "Strive with the Masters, Fight for a Bright Future" and is open to young people aged 12 to 22 nationwide to select professional caddies who meet the service requirements and standards of the competition. Since the online registration was opened on July 31, more than 400 young tennis enthusiasts have actively participated.
This caddy selection activity is divided into two stages, online and offline. After completing the first round of online registration, the players who come to the scene with invitation letters will fully demonstrate their personal confidence and talent through a number of audition tests such as height challenge, knowledge quiz, physical fitness test, sensitivity assessment, etc.
The outstanding players in the audition will be selected by on-site experts, and will experience the work of a caddy under the guidance of professional ball throwing and rolling training, so as to select the best from the best. The candidates who finally stand out after layers of screening will enter the caddy training camp held in Shanghai in late August to receive all-round professional training and assessment.
After completing the assessment, the caddies can stand on the court of the top international tennis tournaments, serve the star players, and gain an unforgettable memory of experiencing the charm of tennis up close. In addition, as long as the players are shortlisted for the caddie training camp, they can receive a set of specially customized Guangming gift boxes for the Masters, which greatly enhances the participation experience.
When players are swinging their rackets and fighting fiercely on the court, and the referee and the line judges are escorting the game, the ball caddies are also an indispensable and important role. Chen Yuxi and Chen Zhiyu, two former ball caddy representatives, also took the stage one after another, sharing their personal experiences as experienced people and cheering for the young friends on the scene.
The two caddie representatives not only talked about how they overcame difficulties, stayed calm under pressure and played a role in the team, but also brought valuable experience and inspiration to the new generation of caddies through on-site demonstrations of many of the main tasks of caddies, such as passing the ball, simulating the distribution of on-court tennis resources and on-court player services.
At the same time as the offline caddy selection activities were carried out, the "Bright Star" online voting and selection was also launched. Players who have completed the audition registration will have the opportunity to participate in the "Bright Star" online voting activities, shout out their personal declarations, and show off their sports photos.
The final "Star of Light" will receive 3 tickets to the Shanghai Museum's Egypt Exhibition and a set of Sanxingdui picture albums provided by Bright Dairy.
