China Invest in Motocross
On May 23rd, the Youth Motocross European Training Program—a youth development initiative hosted by H&H Sports, the organizer of the MXGP of China (Shanghai)—was officially launched in Fengxian, Shanghai.
The opening ceremony was attended by key figures including Xu Bin, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Director of the Shanghai Sports Bureau; Wang Yiqun, Deputy Secretary of the Fengxian District Committee and District Mayor; He Jiandong, Executive Vice Chairman of the Chinese Motorcycle Sports Federation (CAMF); Xu Beibei, Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Jiefang Daily; and Wang Chun, Deputy District Mayor of Fengxian.

Antonio Alia, FIM and Commissioner Director, delivered a video message congratulating the launch and underlining the importance of such international collaborations for the future of the sport.
MXGP, the world’s premier motocross championships, has had a presence in China since 2019. From the beginning, H&H Sports has remained dedicated to one core mission: helping Chinese riders reach the world stage.
With the launch of the Youth Motocross European Training Program, that vision is becoming a reality. Through a structured pathway involving talent identification, professional training, competitive racing, and increased media exposure, this program is designed to create a sustainable, high-potential pipeline for young Chinese motocross athletes.
This is more than a training initiative—it is a long-term strategy to elevate the motocross ecosystem in China and nurture the next generation of international motocross stars. Looking ahead, the collaboration aim to strengthen with more MXGP teams, offering these young riders access to professional, systematic training and the tools they need to succeed at the highest level.
