communes and townships had successfully held the sporting events at the
grassroots level.

2021, featured seven sports, namely tug-of-war, crossbow shooting, pole
pushing, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, and cross-country running,
attracting nearly 1,000 athletes from 10 communes and townships.
Meanwhile, the inclusion of the "danh mang” folk
game and the traditional wrestling of the Muong ethnic group helped enhance the
attractiveness and uniqueness of the 7th Games of Lac Son district. There were
11 sports competed at the event, which also took place in 2021, namely volleyball,
football, badminton, cross-country running, swimming, tug-of-war, "danh mang”,
traditional wrestling, pole pushing, crossbow shooting, and athletics.

completed by September 30. As of August 8, eight of the 10 district-level

district-level localities have geared up their forces for the Provincial Games,
