Via their study the authors also found that as a result of that college sports investments were focused overly on sports team training and competition, college student associations today are generally lacking in the coaching of physical education teachers, and have problems such as inadequate association management, lack of ac-tivity places and funds, lax discipline and low enthusiasm of students, etc. The author proposed that college physical education should base its main function on education, correctly deal with relations between physical education classes, sports association activities and sports training and competition, organically combine sports associations with physical education classes, and exert the main functions of sports associations to serve nationwide fitness.
