EAST ASIA MOVES: Table Tennis - The women's table tennis tournament at the East Asian Games started the day before yesterday. Dressed in a bright set of skirts, the Chinese players ignited the scene. All the cameras were focused on the "gracefully dancing" female players.

Although the women's team is not unfamiliar with wearing skirts, this is the first time they have worn them at a major multi-sport event. Women's team head coach Shi Zhihao said, "Wearing skirts can attract more spectators; tennis has done it, and we in table tennis can also give it a try." Although the skirts caught much attention, they required the players to have excellent body figures. Fortunately, Yao Yan, Cao Zhen, Rao Jingwen, and other players who are competing in the East Asian Games all have relatively standard figures.
