The 10th "Masung Cup" Basketball Tournament is set to tip off in mid-January!

Despite the lingering winter chill, excitement is building. As morning light breaks through the mist, figures in Masung jerseys, work uniforms, and sportswear move across the court across from the Masung Group (Changsha) Industrial Park—the stage for the upcoming 10th "Masung Cup" Basketball Tournament. 

Held under the theme "Unity and Progress, Courageous Struggle: A New Chapter in the Printing Spirit," the event aims to build consensus through teamwork, showcase talent through healthy competition, and, most importantly, embody the dedication and drive of Masung employees.

I. Registrations Pour In: Passing On the Printing Spirit

Since the tournament announcement, employees from R&D, production, sales, and administration have responded enthusiastically, with registration numbers surpassing those of previous years.

“This isn't just a sports challenge—it's an opportunity to push my own limits,” said new employee Xiao Shen.

Longtime production worker Zhang added with a smile, “Braving the morning chill for extra practice is how I embody our professional spirit of precision and commitment. It's about turning perseverance into action.”

As a ten-year veteran of Masung, I've cheered from the sidelines at every tournament and witnessed firsthand how participants focus not only on individual performance but also on teamwork and the transmission of company culture.

“Every year brings fresh faces alongside familiar teammates—a blend of experience and new energy that strengthens our chemistry,” noted several senior players.
Colleagues from the administration department echoed, “This tournament is about growing together. Win or lose, everyone approaches it with a positive attitude and team-first mindset.”

II. The Fighting Spirit: Printing Professionals Never Stop

The "printing professional" spirit at Masung isn't limited to high-precision manufacturing—it's also seen in the constant pursuit of personal excellence. The tournament reflects a mindset of perseverance: the tougher the conditions, the stronger we become.

Xiao and Liao, who joined in late 2025, started winter training immediately after onboarding: “Rain or shine, indoors or out—we train hard on ball handling, passing, and shooting. It's an extension of the professionalism we apply to serving our customers.”

For years, the Masung Cup Basketball Tournament has been a cornerstone of the company's culture. On the court, employees experience how the drive for excellence translates into teamwork and determination. Off the court, the cheers and encouragement from fellow staff reflect a powerful sense of unity. This synergy doesn't just build fitness—it strengthens trust, sharpens collaboration, and ultimately fuels Masung's innovation, customer service, and competitive edge.

III. Warmth in the Winter Cold

Even as temperatures drop and winds bite, enthusiasm never wanes. On Changsha's training courts at dusk, breath turns to mist as players encourage one another through drills.
The Masung basketball team chat stays active with practice reminders and mutual motivation—a small but powerful source of energy.

Teams such as Masung, Liangu, and Tengfang have integrated structured warm-ups, stretching, and tactical sessions into their routines to ensure both performance and safety during the games.

IV. Organizational Support & Precise Execution

To ensure this year's tournament runs smoothly, the administration department has assembled dedicated teams to handle scheduling, venue management, logistics, medical support, cheerleading, and guest coordination.
The 10th Masung Cup is more than a sports event—it's a showcase of company culture, designed so every participant leaves with a sense of accomplishment and joy.

Key preparations include:

1. A group round-robin format to maximize playing time for all teams.

2. Professional referees and support staff to guarantee fairness and safety.

3. Streamlined management of court setup, spectator areas, and media zones.

4. Regular updates via the company intranet and social platforms—featuring player profiles, match highlights, and behind-the-scenes stories—to boost engagement and belonging.

V. Unity and Progress: Gathering Strength, Striving Higher

Masung Group strives to integrate its mission into employees' daily work. Through basketball, staff experience firsthand the ethos of refinement, effort, and breakthrough—whether driving to the basket on court or attending to details in their roles.

Resilient, tenacious, and united in purpose, Masung's people carry the mission of turning vision into reality.

The basketball tournament, much like the annual company gathering, serves as both a stage and a mirror—an opportunity to reflect, shine, and grow.

We believe that with the "printing spirit" in our hearts, steps taken in unison, and clear goals ahead, we will perform at our best—on and off the court.

VI. Stay Tuned for an Exciting Event

The 10th Masung Cup Basketball Tournament, launching next month, will be more than a competition—it will be a celebration of spirit and solidarity.

Let's look forward together to seeing how Masung employees channel the resilience of printing professionals into passionate, focused teamwork that drives the company forward.

This tournament represents a collective commitment: to endure, to excel, and to write a new chapter of achievement together.
