| According to the result of the fifth population research, the elder people above the age of 65 have taken the proportion of 6.96% of the whole population; therefore, China has come into the society of elder population. The research reports show that "by the year of 2020, the aging of Chinese population would make the worst proportion between the working people and the unemployed people".Compared with the developed countries in the North America and the Europe, the aging of Chinese society is formed against the background of undeveloped economy and wide gap between the rich and the poor. The "Silver Tide" and the process of aging has influenced the society so much that the burden coefficient of the elder people is rising, and the issues of healthy and pharmacy of the elder people has been focused by the whole society. Those problems in the aspects of supporting the parents, pharmacy and the social welfare are not beneficial for the social and economic development.The approaching of the elder society urges the Chinese government to take the needs and interests of the elder people into consideration in the production of all the public policies. The problem of the elders' health has become an important issue focused by the whole society, and the poor health condition is the fact that the elder people have to face directly. The deduction of the elders' living condition and health condition is one of the crucial factors which affect the construction of the harmonious society.The notion of "positive aging" proposed by some researchers in the developed countries has inspired us. The "positive aging" refers to that in the whole life circle, the elders can keep a good condition in the perspectives of physical health, social relationship and psychological health; the elders can face their later years positively and they can continue their contributions to the society as an important source of the family and society.In order to promote the healthy life of the elder people, the Chinese government has proposed a series of laws and policies such as The Rights and Interests Safeguard Law of the Senior Citizen in People's Republic of China and The State Council Plan Summary about All the People's Healthy. The Chinese Bureau of Sports has also put forward a series of policies to ensure and promote the development of the elders' healthy issue, such as National System Determination Standard Handbook (Section 1, 2, 3 of the Senior Citizen) , The Notice About the National Development of the "100.01 Million Senior Citizens Healthy Activity", The Notice about Strengthening the Senior Citizen Sports Work and so on.As a local sports item, the balloon volleyball has been favored by the elder people in some provinces. Because the balloon volleyball is light, the speed of the balloon volleyball is slower than the volleyball, the arm will not feel hurt when it hits the ball, and a flat ground and a volleyball net are enough for an balloon volleyball match. The above features of the balloon volleyball would lower the skills required by the volleyball sports, increase the times and patterns of hitting volleyball, and enhance the entertainment and sightseeing of the balloon volleyball.The integration of the sports features and the organization form has provided the elder people with an important vehicle for their physical and psychological health. Moreover, compared with other forms of sports, the balloon volleyball is more economical and more convenient for the elder people. However, as it developed later than other sports, the balloon volleyball has not been popularized among the elder, then its healthy function and social function has been weakened.Through the analysis and research on the situation of the balloon volleyball which is popular among the elder people in the Liu Zhou, the writer expect that this thesis would serve as a theoretical guidance to the promotion of the balloon volleyball among the elder people in China.
