ABSTRACT

Children and adolescents are considered to be at a critical stage of growth and development. The physical health of these individuals is not only related to their personal growth, but is also associated with an improvement in the overall quality of the nation. In recent years, China has issued a series of policy documents to strengthen, guarantee, and promote sports participation among children and adolescents. The understanding of these policies is helpful to understand the participation of children and adolescents in sports from a macro perspective. By reforming physical education teaching, students can learn about its health benefits and master basic and specialised sports skills. Understanding and mastering the related factors that affect the sports activities of children and adolescents is the basic premise to promote their participation in sports activities. As the main living environment of children and adolescents, school, family, and community have an important impact on their participation in sports activities.
