Abstract: Under the condition of decoupling, reshaping the relationship between the government and individual sports associations and posotioning the role of the government are an urgent theoretical problem to be solved. Taking the "multiple governance government-led collaborative governance model" as the logical starting point of the study, using the methods of literature and survey, this present paper studies the content of this model. The study shows that the government should lead the associations to collaborate on the basis of recognizing the law of self-organized collaboration, and establish a workable interaction mechanism of "value coordination, subject coordination, interest coordination and process coordinaton" by clarifying the sequence parameters, mastering sports big data, promoting social credibility, advocating equal consultation and interaction order, and formulating positive incentive policies. Suggestions: the core values of socialism should be used to lead the coordinated development of multiple objectives; the empowerment and governance structure reform should be used to promote the collaborative relationship between the subjects of coordinaiton and co-governance; the business drive should be used to promote the collaborative relationship of benefit sharing; the big data technology governance should be used to establish the collaborative platform of cooperation, supervision and evaluation process; different types of individual sports associations should develop independently due to different resource endowment and governance ability, which will lead to the different implementation paths of the coordination mechanism; the collaborative relationship between the central and local individual associaitons is also embedded in it. It is hoped that this study can provide theoretical support for the follow-up modernization of the management system and management capacity of individual sports associations.
