SANYA, China, Nov. 30 (Xinhua) -- The 12th National Traditional Games of Ethnic Minorities closed on Saturday evening in Sanya, Hainan Province, with organizers conducting the handover ceremony to the delegates representing next host Hunan Province.

Flags representing the 35 delegations were waved at the closing ceremony at the Sanya Sports Center.

Chinese State Councilor Shen Yiqin declared the Games officially closed, and then the stadium flame was extinguished.

"Athletes from 35 delegations competed on the same stage, demonstrating not only their strength and skill but also a profound emotional and spiritual connection," said Gao Zhidan, director of China's General Administration of Sport, who also expressed gratitude to athletes, staff, volunteers and media who contributed to the Games.

"The Games allowed us to share the fruitful achievements of ethnic unity and progress, as well as the advancement of national fitness. Let us reunite in Hunan in 2027," he added.

A total of 6,960 athletes competed in the nine-day Games, which featured 18 sports and three demonstration sports.

The official Games flag was handed to Hunan Province's vice governor Li Jianzhong, followed by an eight-minute performance of the next host.
