Chapter 42: Oath

Since the establishment of Hongxing Club for decades, there are many traditional habits that have been inherited to this day, and the most impressive thing for members is the meeting ceremony. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Everyone who joins the club has a logo on their body, a unicorn figure, as well as a club representing their class. Each member has his or her tattoo done before the first general meeting in the general hall, and generally passes the corresponding assignment assessment to formally join the association. This process often takes weeks to complete. But Dai Haochun's way of joining the club is a bit special, he is personally approved and assessed by the leader of the club, and he can quickly participate in the next joining ceremony.

Entering the general hall, I saw a long table in the spacious meeting hall, and next to it were two rows of neatly arranged chairs, each of which was seated by the important people of each branch. The main seat is seated by Hongxing's highest dragon head, Haiye.

And a few people from the No. 2 Middle School Branch and the Town Middle Branch can only sit on a row of small stools behind the main seat, after all, the strength of the campus is limited, and they can only sit in an inconspicuous corner in this hierarchical club.

After the presiding officer of the conference, the head of the club, said some customary opening remarks, several new members who joined Hongxing began to read the oath to show their determination to join the club.

Dai Haochun and several other new members who participated in the entrance ceremony stood in the center of the hall, draped in a yellow pennant with a fire unicorn on their chests, stretched out their right hands, faced a huge basketball portrait, and began to read aloud a text on a blackboard.

"Ever since Mr. James Naismith, the inventor of basketball, created this fun ball game, all mankind has enjoyed it because of it. Basketball brings us not only pleasure, but also a strong body...... Since a friendly friend from the United States who came to China spread the new thing of basketball to the land of China, basketball has been vigorously developed, and people are full of vitality and love for the joy of life under the nourishment of basketball...... Thank God for giving us this fun and strong sport, but a small leather ball brings infinite memories and good ......

"Under the influence of basketball, we have all learned how to work together, people have become more united, people have become stronger, and we have injected a powerful energy into our future careers.

"I would like to swear in front of the founders of the club that I must continue my passion for basketball and dedicate my life's work to the development of basketball."

Hongxing Ball Club was born in an era full of faith, originally proposed by some aspiring young people to use the development of sports to improve all aspects of society, so the declaration of membership is also very passionate, full of enthusiasm for basketball between the lines, so that more people can easily accept.

After reading this oath, Dai Haochun felt like he had been brainwashed. But it is not difficult to understand why this club, which has developed from only one sport, has such a strong cohesion, and the people who join the club are people who have a strong passion for basketball.

After the reading, the venue resounded with warm applause, and Hai Ye came over to shake hands with each newcomer one by one, and it can be seen that the senior management really attaches great importance to the newcomers.
