Zhen MA on LinkedIn: INTERNATIONAL FENCING FEDERATION - The International Fencing Federation… (2024)

Japan's Koki Kano at 5'7 defeated the 6'6 Borel to take gold in the #olympics over the weekend.As a fencer, specifically an épéeist, and a reporter on the energy sector, the sentiment behind this is huge.Both in my sport and in my work, I constantly see players big and small (literally and metaphorically) overcoming their limitations in the pursuit of something larger than themselves.Excuse the pun, but the task of decarbonising #energy is Olympic. In fact, at times it seems impossible.But, the sheer amount of #innovation we report on at Smart Energy International and Power Engineering International - and which all comes together during Enlit Europe in #Milan later this year - is always incredibly encouraging. Whether #smartenergy systems, renewable integration or even the gargantuan financing challenge - what are some of the areas you think will be most important to address for a #zerocarbon future?

I've just started working on my presentation for the International Tennis Federation Worldwide Coaches Conference 2023, to be held in Bogota, Colombia. It's the first time the WWCW has been held face to face since Covid, and my first visit to South America since 2007.Whilst I won't give away the title of my presentation, the picture gives a clue. These are high performers. How do you define 'high performers' and 'high performing'?inspire2coach#InternationalTennisFederation#tennis#tenniscoach#highperforming

What is Handball? 🤾♀️When most people in Australia hear "handball," they often think of the four-square game played in schoolyards. Nope, that's not the one I'm talking about. The one I'm talking about has an emoji!🤾♀️ Handball, the one I played professionally for many years, is an incredible, fast-paced team sport that’s part of the Olympic Games and is currently being played in Paris.The beach version is also being showcased at Paris 2024, with the hope that it becomes a permanent sport in the Olympic schedule in the coming years. Both are awesome sports that, unfortunately, don’t get enough coverage here in Australia.What are the basics? Handball combines elements of basketball, soccer, and netball. It’s played indoors with teams of seven players, where the goal is to score by throwing the ball into the opposing team's net. The game requires agility, strength, and teamwork – making it as thrilling to watch as it is to play.If you want another explanation, check out the awesome video Jimmy Rees OAM has created👇 Even though I now also play the beach version, the traditional indoor handball remains close to my heart.Check both sports out now - Handball on 9Now and Beach Handball on YouTube via the IHF Competitions page.#handball #paris2024 #olympicsport #teamwork #sports #athletelife #beachhandball #australiansport
