Abstract:
The evaluation index system of leisure sports competitiveness is constructed by comprehensively using Delphi method.The development level and spatial difference characteristics of leisure sports competitiveness of 31 provincial units in Chinese Mainland are measured and analyzed by entropy weight TOPSIS. The results show that the evaluation index system of leisure sports competitiveness consists of seven elements: natural environment, sports resources, demand basis, market conditions, product structure, innovation environment and main support. The competitiveness of leisure sports in China is generally at an average level. Among them, leisure sports resources, demand basis and natural environment competitiveness are the advantage element layer, while the main support, market conditions, product structure and innovation environment competitiveness are the disadvantage element layer. The spatial difference of leisure sports competitiveness is obvious, showing a gradient decreasing pattern of the east, middle and west, with a high degree of positive economic correlation.The advantages and disadvantages of the provincial leisure sports competitiveness are different, and the supply side competitiveness is larger than the demand side competitiveness as a whole.
