Through literature review, relevant policies and academic achievements are sorted out, and the historical analysis method is used to trace its development process. Through case analysis, typical applications in each stage are explored, providing a solid theoretical foundation and practical basis for research. Research has found that digital sports have gone through stages of germination, exploration, initial construction, and integrated promotion, each stage exhibiting different characteristics influenced by factors such as technology, policies, and social needs. It has the characteristics of technology driven, widely applied, clear development stages, and strong integration.
