The National Games of the People's Republic of China, sometimes known as the All China Games (though not to be confused with the All-China Games), is the premier sports event in China at national level. It is usually held once every four years, most recently in September 2021, when the 14th National Games of China took place in Xi'an.
The forerunner of the Games was the National Games of the Republic of China, first held in 1910 during the Qing dynasty. This tournament ran until 1948. The Chinese National Games continues to be held by the Republic of China which is now based in Taiwan.[1]
The National Games of the People's Republic of China was launched under its current name in 1959, following the formation of the People's Republic of China.[2]
