The results indicate the followings: (1) pre-service physical education teachers’ PCK con-dition was not optimistic; the vast majority of pre-service physical education teachers’ overall PCK condition as well as their knowledge about physical education disciplinary contents, about students and about physical education teaching strategies, were at the level of “general or limitedly understood PCK”; (2) various dimensional develop-ment of pre-service physical education teachers’ PCK was not synchronous, showing the characteristics of nonlinear development; (3) pre-service physical education teachers’ PCK showed school, class and gender differences; (4) pre-service physical education teachers’ PCK was developed from various dimensional knowledge integration, “knowledge about physical education teaching strategies” has the highest degree of correlation with pre-service physical education teachers’ PCK. Conclusions: From the PCK perspective, the situation of pre-service physical education teachers “can work but cannot teach” is evident; the situation of pre-service physical education teachers’ “knowledge isolation” is evident; the overall cultivation quality of physical education major in normal universities is not optimistic. Based on the development of pre-service physical education teachers’ PCK, the authors put forward the following development proposals: change one-time internship into phased internship; promote the development of “knowledge about students”; boost theoretical and academic curriculum teaching reform; promote the develop-ment of “knowledge about physical education teaching strategies”, etc.
