Abstract

To build a leading sports nation and enhance public health, it is essential to fully integrate sports into daily life, promoting universal health through nationwide fitness, and thereby fostering overall well-being. Constructing a public sports service system that is universally accessible and suitable for all ages has become a critical issue. As a populous province, Hunan is experiencing deepening aging, and the level of age-adapted sports facilities in old communities directly impacts the quality of elderly participation and their health and well-being. Focusing on old communities across Hunan, this study systematically reviews existing problems in age-adapted sports facilities through literature review, field research, and case analysis. Combining national policy guidance with local practices, it proposes pathways and countermeasures for renovating sports facilities to better serve the elderly. This research aims to provide theoretical support and practical references for building elderly-friendly community environments and advancing the construction of sports power.
