China is sending teams across all three of its major ball sports — basketball, volleyball and football — to compete at the Asian Games, according to China Daily. The outlet reports that the country's campaign in these events goes beyond a simple push for gold medals, with a number of matchups expected to draw significant attention.
China Daily frames the three sports as a full-scale effort rather than a single medal target, describing the schedule as featuring several contests worth watching. The report does not specify which teams, players or fixtures are involved.
