For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Vinz,

As well, you can partake in both events, the pistol and the rifle, if you so desire.

Comment by Chris Knight on April 26, 2014 at 8:29

Vinz, no qualifications are necessary for the shooting event. Talk to your school, and give them your full name as it is written in your passport, and your passport number. They can either go online or phone the organizers and register you. Your name and passport number are required for insurance purposes (just in case some crazy French guy starts shooting people). LOL

Dear, I was not on site last year and do not know about the number of categor. In the shooting, men is more than woman. Raise your hand and join the game.
Comment by Vinz on April 26, 2014 at 8:05

160 competitors last year? Waouh! Were they equally divided in the 4 categories? Or were there more men than women involved?

Hua Qiao is a very good university, enjoy your stay.
Comment by Leo on April 26, 2014 at 7:52
Hope to see your name on the prize list. Good luck...

Vinz, it seems that you have encountered some trouble when registering shooting before,isn't? I am not aware of any other requirement for shooting.
But the participant must be serious about the game since any type of gun is aggressive and can become weapons. If the player did anything wrong on purpose, he or she will be in trouble.
If you are interested in the shooting, you can ask your school to register for you, there were more then 160 players competed in the shooting.

Leo, I am a foreigner who has been working in a Changchun for 7 years, who took part in the foreign friends games before and who will register to his university (Hua qiao) if he wants to take part this year. My question concerns strictly the shooting competition.

Chris, it seems that you took part in it in the past, any requirements?

Comment by Leo on April 25, 2014 at 20:07

Dear Vinz, can I ask are you a foreign teacher in Changchun?  Or, what is your job and to whom are your working with?
