In their social life over a long period of time many people of minority nationalities have created a variety of traditional minority national sports events. In recent years the World Organization and the government of China have promulgated a number of stipulations on the protection of non-material cultural heritages. The protection of non-material cultural heritages has provided oppor-tunities for the development of traditional minority national sports in Guizhou, and as a result, in the Traditional Minority National Games excellent performances had been achieved in such events as wrestling of the Dong nation-ality and archery of the Miao nationality. For the development of traditional minority national sports in Guizhou, we should give our priority to protecting and cultivating the inheritors of traditional minority national sports, pay atten-tion to the discovery of the intrinsic connotations of the spiritual culture of traditional minority national sports, and strengthen the protection of survival environments of traditional minority national sports.
Key words: traditional minority national sports；non-material cultural heritage；Guizhou |
