The authors drew the following conclusions: the nature attribute of the theory that the nature of competition is skill should be removed, while the orientation of skill in competitive ac-tivities should be reestablished based on the theory that competition is skill; studying the issue about the nature of competition still need to be carried out based on the game theory, while the skill theory should focus more on tech-nical phenomena in competitive activities.
