The study provides insights for the development of sports organizations and competition systems in Chinese universities based on the American model.

  The study proposes establishing a broad university sports organization and a two-tiered intra-school competition system; creating a university league system based on cities or regions; shifting the focus of university sports from skill development to competition organization; increasing sports facilities to ensure the effective implementation of physical activities; promoting the development of university sports economy by relying on high-level competitions; reforming the national sports system, and nurturing excellent sports talents through the integration of physical education and sports.
