Research on the Current Situation and Countermeasures of the Development of Mini-basketball in Donghe Primary School, Wangcang County

Abstract

Mini-basketball is a high-quality school sports program that conforms to the physical and mental development of primary school students and has important value for strengthening physical fitness, cultivating rule awareness, and developing team spirit. Wangcang County is located in the mountainous area of northern Sichuan and is an important part of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Revolutionary Base Area, with a profound red cultural heritage. Taking the mini-basketball program at Donghe Primary School in Wangcang County as the research object, this paper uses the methods of literature review, interviews, and field investigation to systematically analyze the current situation, realistic difficulties, and development paths of mini-basketball in county-level primary schools in northern Sichuan.

The research shows that mini-basketball at Donghe Primary School has been initially incorporated into physical education courses and extracurricular activities, and students have a strong willingness to participate. However, there are practical shortcomings such as insufficient professional teachers, limited venues and equipment, a scattered curriculum system, few competition activities, and weak home-school collaboration. Combining Wangcang County’s profound red cultural heritage and the school’s red education characteristics, this paper proposes optimization paths such as integrating the spirit of red culture into teacher training, curriculum construction, and competition organization, improving hardware support, constructing school-based courses, improving the competition mechanism, and deepening home-school-community collaboration, so as to form an integrated development path of “red culture + mini-basketball” and provide theoretical reference and practical basis for the high-quality popularization and sustainable development of mini-basketball in rural primary schools.
