Abstract: At present China's track and field and swimming demonstrate the sign of fluctuation in terms of their competition performance with imbalanced inner structure and gender ratio. The study finds that there are four reasons restricting the development of Chinese Track and field and swimming: the competent departments' excessive tilt leads to the weak mass basis in the development of the events; the proliferation of short-term basic training hinders the long-term development of such events; the precarious situation of swimming and track and field in schools school sports results in the failure of school sports as the cradle; the low market degree brings about inefficient market operation and development. In order to promote the development of Chinese Track and field and swimming, the paper suggests the following countermeasures of consolidating mass base of the events, strengthening the dependence of personnel training on school education and exploiting the market potentials of the development of these sports events.
