Speaking about her selection, Xiaoxiao Lai said: “It is a great honor to be selected as an Athlete Role Model for the Youth Olympic Games.

I am truly proud that wushu has been included in the Youth Olympic Games for the first time. As an Athlete Role Model, I will share the experience, thoughts and insights I have gained through my many years in wushu, helping young athletes create their own best moments, enjoy the YOG stage to the fullest, and showcase the youthful spirit of wushu. This further strengthens my belief that wushu will shine even more brightly on the world stage.”
