On the afternoon of September 10, the Women's Handball Competition at the 15th National Games officially kicked off. Ten women's handball teams from across China gathered in Shantou for a thrilling showdown.

At the opening ceremony, Shantou presented a meticulously prepared "Chaoshan Cultural Feast". The event warmly welcomed teams from across China with a program showcasing national intangible cultural heritage, including the Yingge Dance and Double Dragon Dance, as well as other unique Chaoshan folk performances. The first match was a preliminary Group A game between the Shandong team and the Hong Kong team, with the Shandong team ultimately winning.

To host the 15th National Games, Shantou has extensively upgraded its major sports venues and facilities, providing athletes with first-class competition and training venues while offering spectators a top-tier viewing experience. Hosting this event will enrich Shantou's cultural connotation and drive the coordinated development of its economy, society, and sports.
