When asked about the future of Tatung's high school graduates, Coach Qiu said that not every athlete on the team is aiming to become a national representative team, so not all of them are heading for sports-related disciplines. He holds a positive view on this, believing that not all athletes need to go into sports-related professions in order to help Taiwan sports, but rather to encourage more people who like sports and have received formal sports training to go into different fields.
