The Construction of Rural Sports Governance Evaluation Index System and Its Empirical Research

The evaluation of rural sports governance is an important theoretical and practical problem. Based on the guidance of good governance, this paper constructs an evaluation index system of rural sports governance from three-dimensional perspectives of "Governance Input-Governance Process-Governance Output" by using the methods of literature research, investigation and mathematical statistics and other methods, and referring to evaluation theory and social index theory. The index system constructed in this paper includes 3 first-level indexes, 16 second-level indexes and 40 third-level indexes, which has been tested empirically in this paper. The empirical results show that the level of rural sports governance is generally ladder-like distribution in the east, middle and west, but some of the third-level indexes don't show obviously ladder-like characteristics, and there are even a few indicators with “anti-ladder” distribution. The results of comprehensive empirical research show that the current rural sports governance should change the focus from paying attention to the “hardware” investment, such as venue and facilities, to the “software” investment, such as organization, propaganda work, etc., and then combine “hard” and “soft” to promote the new period of rural sports governance to the depth of development. In addition, although the government is the core force of rural sports governance, the social forces should not be neglected. Therefore, we should give full play to the positive role of social forces in rural sports governance, so as to form a pattern of good governance with multiple coexistence and combined efforts.
