Ever wondered how sports can feel like a passport to new friendships? At Beijing Sport University on the Chinese mainland, international students are experiencing just that! 🏀⚽ From slam dunks to soccer goals, these athletes are rewriting the playbook on cultural exchange.
In the latest episode of CGTN’s Game On, host Merna takes us inside campus life. She meets students from every continent, each sharing stories of roaring crowds, shared victories, and even the tough losses that unite teams. Through sweat and cheers, rivals become teammates—proving that on the field, language barriers don't stand a chance.
Take Ana from Brazil, who found a second home through early morning basketball drills. Or Hiro from Japan, whose soccer skills helped him score friendships across borders. Every match becomes a chance to learn a new language of teamwork—and maybe even master a dance move in the victory chant! 💃🌍
Whether under stadium lights or on a local pitch, these moments build memories that last long after the final whistle. Sports turn into a universal language that connects hearts, ignites passion, and creates a global squad united by a love of the game.
Through every dribble, sprint, and score, these stories show how diverse cultures collide on the field and friendships win.
