Study On The Evolution Of Chinese Athletic Grade System

As a fundamental system, The Athletic Grade System has been operative for more than half a century. The primary functions of this system are to encourage athletes to practice hard and to raise the level of competitive sports in our country. At present, athletic technical grade in our country can be classified into five levels: international master sportsman, national master sportsman, national first grade sportsman, national second sportsman and national third grade sportsman.In the early days of new china, we followed and operated the Regulation of Labor and Health. In 1956, based on the implement of The Regulation of Labor and Health, the State Sports Commission promulgated The Athletic Grade Ordinance of People's Republic of China (draft) and The Athletic Grade Standards of 16 sports games including Track and Field, Swimming etc. On June 21,1958, The Athletic Grade System was promulgated formally and was revised and promulgated. The Athletic Grade System had been revised, supplemented and improved, and the games covered from 16 to 69 by 2010. The implementation of this system attached the great importance to cultivating the qualified athletes and development of competitive sports.Although the system had been revised and improved during the process of implementation for several decades, with the continuously deepening of reform and open-up, and the quick development of economy, the inadequate adaption challenged the system. First, the levels of development in games were different, and the competition rules, systems and names were all different. These led to unable scientific and normative forming balanced standards in different games, Second, in the process of implements of The Athletic Grade System, the principle contradiction was between approval and management. Due to the bonus points in entrance exam for the graded athletes, the approval and management of first and second grade sportsman became the burning problem and the priority of the problem. Puts forward the main idea of pluralistic system, the system had a single body for the sports sector reform, labor and social security departments and education departments to develop the system, evaluation, monitoring, identification of the diversified system of the main body, and in the system Construction of China's athletes under the approval of technical evaluation index hierarchy。From the point of historical materialism and system theory, this paper scientifically, systematically and roundly organized and summarized the historical background, the system background and the development sequence of The Athletic Grade System, and found the new problems in the new situation, and put forward the solutions. Based on the present development situation, with the demands of sports development, this paper investigated and judged the new reform trend of The Athletic Grade System, and made suggestions for revision and development from a theoretical operative level. This will not only make the system development and management more scientific, effective and comprehensive, but also in the implementation process so that the system is more fair and just. The most practical significance is not only the level of athletes to be recognized by society as a whole and be able to enjoy with other occupations, the statutory social security, but also allows level athletes in the school's preferential policies for a fair process to adapt to the new situation of social demand for talent. The Athletic Grade System in the new situation will continue to promote the continuous progress of Sports in chinese sports undertakings and promote the healthy, orderly and sustainable development.
