Sport learning interest related researches were mainly done in the following areas: 1)researches on the current situation of sport learning interest, researches on the classification, measurement tools and levels of sports learning interest; 2)researches on the functions of sport learning interest on learning effect; 3)researches on sport learning interest affecting factors. The author expected the following areas to become future research direc-tions: 1)researches on the perfection and standardization of sport learning interest measurement tools; 2)researches on sport learning interest occurring mechanism; 3)researches on the pattern of sport learning interest developing from static current state to dynamic exploration; 4)researches on comprehensive sport learning interest affecting factor mod-els developing from single factor models to multi-perspective and multidimensional models; 5)sport competition char-acteristics and physiological inadaptability have caused the complexity of student’ sports learning interest; researches on learning interest in sport and human body’s biological mechanism will go deeper constantly.
