Sapporo (pps) Five luge athletes from China participated in a training course, which was recently conducted by Koji Kuriyama on behalf of the International Luge Federation (FIL). The athletes were aged between 14 and 22 and came from the province of Heilongjiang located in the north of China. In the course, which was held at the Fujino luge track, venue of the 1992 Junior World Championships, they were familiarized with basic knowledge of the sport of luge.

All participants made great progress during ten training days. The training program was generously supported by the city of Sapporo, which made the track available free of charge.
