Abstract: AbstractFollowing the contents of the Guiding Opinion about Accelerating the Development of Sports Industry issued by the General Office of the State Council, most provinces in China have issued their own implementation suggestions about accelerating the development of sports industry as a response to the documents of the central government. Based on the policy contents in the implementation suggestions about accelerating the development of sports industry of different provinces, this paper analyzes the development objectives, policy subjects and measures of sports industry, finding that the local policies and the central government policies just coincide with each other and different provinces have made some breakthroughs and expansions according to their own situations in the establishment of their policy structures. However, there exist some problems in the local sports industry policies, such as the simple policy contents, the unspecific policy objectives, ambiguous executive implementation subjects as well as the indistinction of policy measures.
