| Athletics are historic sports in the world, as the basis stone ofthe Olympic Games, it is called “mother of sportsâ€. One of the mostimportant symbols to measure sport level in a country iscompetitive sport, among which the athletic is a very importantpart. Since the Reform and opening up Policy of our country in1987,training quality and competing results improved continually,athletics get a quick development in our country. Recently, trainingand development of the reserve talent is emphasized in ShanxiProvince, it was decided to build up a team of “talent base for theathletic talent in Shanxi Province†in2013August, which has lay asolid foundation for sustainable development of competing sport inShanxi Province.In the6-11National Games, numbers of athletic medals gottenby Shanxi delegation were respectively0,0, and4(1gold),1,5(5gold),1(1gold). The results show that, although Shanxi Provinceattaches great importance to the athletics, for weak foundation andother reasons, although there are breakthroughs in individualprojects, the overall situation is worrying. If Shanxi wants to win indomestic and international sports competition, it must have astrong athletics reserve team, and form a reasonable talent echelon of athletes, but studies on Athletics Reserve PersonnelTraining in Shanxi Province is not very systematic. Based on thereasons above, this paper aims to study and reflect situation ofAthletics Reserve personnel development objectively in ShanxiProvince, and provide theoretical and practical basis for furtherpromote the healthy development of athletic reserve talent inShanxi Province.By the methods of literature study, questionnaire, and logicalanalysis, in the paper, we gave out questionnaires to100athleticcoaches and300reserve talents selected randomly from11sportsschool and part of the school in Shanxi Province (Taiyuan, Yangquan,Jincheng, Xinzhou, Jinzhong, Yuncheng, Datong, Changzhi,Shuozhou, Lvliang, Linfen), conducted a survey on the currentsituation in Shanxi Province Athletics Reserve talents, collect andanalysis data of the recycling valid questionnaires, then drew thefollowing conclusion.(1) Age structure distribution of athletic reserve talents inShanxi Province is reasonable; the vast majority of athletic reservetalents have better training attitude and higher enthusiasm intraining. Most of them have clear motivation and high enthusiasm intraining.(2) Overall relations between athletic reserve talents andcoaches are in perfect harmony, parents provide more support fortheir children in the athletic training. Athletic reserve talentsattaches great importance to learning, they have strong curiosityand desire to learn. But contradiction between "learning andtraining" is still serious; many school leaders ignore the cultural knowledge learning in order to get results predominantly. We shouldgo way of "combination of athletics and education" firmly in thefuture.(3)The athletic coaches in Shanxi Province have a reasonableage structure, and main education degree of Bachelor, college as asupplement, proportion of postgraduate degree is relatively low,title to the intermediate title, senior phase is relatively low. As forprofessional titles, they mostly have medium grade professionaltitles, with senor grade in minority. The education, structure ofprofessional title and overall business level needs to be furtherimproved and enhanced(4) In our province, athletic coaches in different sports schoolshave high enthusiasm in job training, but the number of job trainingis relatively less, and there is a great gap between part of thetraining contents and coaches’ needing. Moreover, treatments ofthe athletic coaches need to be improved at present in our province.(5) Selection method of athletic reserve talents by coaches isscientific in Shanxi Province. But in recent years there are notenough sources of the athletic reserve talents, human resourcesare in shortage relatively, and numbers of the athletic reservetalents show a declined tendency, the situation is not optimistic.(6) Training time and frequency arrangement of the athleticreserve talents by the coaches is reasonable, but years of trainingplans are relatively fewer in the formulation of the training program,which is not conducive to the long-term development of the athleticreserve talents in a certain extent. The rehabilitation taken for thereserve talents after training are mainly traditional methods, athletes have few opportunities to participate in high levelcompetitions and other games annually, which will have certaininfluences on test of the training efficiency and accumulation theactual combat experience of the athletic reserve talents, as well asimprovements of technical and tactical levels. Next step should beto further(7) The athletic training funds are tight at present stage in ourprovince, the training are mainly funded by the government, so ithas a strong dependence on the government, other funding sourcesare relatively fewer, the athletic training sites and implementationthe sports school can meet the basic needs of the athletic teachingtraining, but sports equipments of the schools are not repaired andupdated timely in parts of the province. In addition, the socialsecurity system for the athletic reserve talents is not perfect. |
