“Village Competition” Empowering Rural Revitalization: Research on Value Implications, Realistic Dilemmas, and Relief Paths

This article focuses on the theme of empowering rural revitalization through “Village Competitions” and explores the value, challenges, and solutions of rural sports events in promoting rural revitalization. The research indicates that “Village Competitions” have significant value for rural revitalization in four aspects: economically, they promote rural economic development through industrial drive and brand building; culturally, they integrate traditional and modern cultures, fostering rural spirit; in governance, they optimize rural governance structures and enhance social cohesion; spatially, they integrate rural resources and improve spatial utilization efficiency. However, “Village Competitions” face numerous challenges in the process of empowering rural revitalization, including inadequate policy support, resource shortages, limited governance capacity, and contradictions between cultural inheritance and innovation. To address these issues, this article proposes solutions such as strengthening policy support and institutional guarantees, optimizing resource allocation and infrastructure construction, enhancing rural governance capacity and social participation, and balancing cultural inheritance and innovation. The study concludes that by implementing these solutions, the comprehensive benefits of “Village Competitions” in rural revitalization can be effectively enhanced, promoting sustainable rural development and providing new ideas and methods for the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy.
