Tonight, a 27-member skating contingent from Bangladesh will leave for China, targeting medals at the Asian Cup Skate Track Series Club Championship in Lishui from August 10-12. The team comprises thirteen male and nine female skaters, ready to face fierce competition from China, South Korea, Iran, Russia, and Chinese Taipei. Despite the challenging lineup, the team's morale remains high following their impressive performance in last year's competition, where they secured two gold and two bronze medals.

Leading the team is Nabiyun Islam, who made history last year by winning gold in the men's 500m speed race and 1,000m sprint events. The athletes were officially seen off by Zahed Parvez Chowdhury, Director (Sports) of the National Sports Council (NSC), in a floral reception at the NSC headquarters. Present at the event were also Dr. Kamruzzaman Kaiser, president of the Bangladesh Skating Federation, and other sports federation officials.

The Asian Cup Skate Track Series Club Championship is a significant event for the Bangladesh skating community, providing a platform to showcase their talent on an international stage. The team's participation in such a prestigious event not only highlights their dedication but also boosts the profile of skating in Bangladesh.

The Bangladesh Skating Federation and the National Sports Council have been working tirelessly to prepare the team for this competition. Their efforts are now culminating in this international event, where the team hopes to replicate and perhaps exceed their previous success.

The upcoming championship in Lishui will be a crucial test for the Bangladesh skating team, as they aim to secure more medals and further establish their presence in international skating competitions.
