Abstract: This paper investigates the status quo and countermeasures of rural primary and secondary school sports in concentrated
distressed areas in Yunnan Province by means of questionnaire survey, mathematical statistics and analysis methods. The survey found
that rural primary and secondary school sports in these areas generally have problems such as "fake curriculum" of physical education,
lack of teaching quality management, formalization of major classes, lack of extracurricular sports activities, no extracurricular sports
and weak guarantee of basic sports conditions. It is believed that the standards and norms of sports work should be formulated for the
rural primary and secondary schools in these areas, connotative and intensive development should be taken, the management of
development goals should be well-arranged, the local sports resources should be fully developed and utilized, the leadership on sports
work of primary and secondary school headmasters should be improved, and the dynamic supervision of school sports development
should be strengthened, so as to actively achieve development through the implementation of the strategy of rural revitalization in
Yunnan Province.
