The China General Administration of Sport has been using the public welfare fund collected from the sport lottery to create youth sports clubs since 2000. And by end of 2010, Shanghai had created a total of 170 national youth sports clubs. The clubs has played an active role in arousing the youth's interest in sports, building up the youth's health and cultivating the reserved talents for competition sports, etc. But as a new thing, the youth sports club is still in the exploring stage of development, and because of less experience to follow in operation, some problems have appeared.This paper attempts to provide certain ideas for the development of youth sports club through the investigation, analysis and study in the present Shanghai youth sports clubs.The study, adpoting the methods of literature, induction, questionnaires and interviews and comparative analysis, investigates the situation of 145 youth sports clubs from 9 different periods in Shanghai, and then put forward the constructive suggestions to the existing problems.The results of the study demonstrate: Firstly, the number of youth sports clubs in Shanghai has become a certain size with the reasonable distribution, but the numbers of young members developed by the clubs are insufficient, which can't meet the requirements of The China General Administration of Sports.
