Driven by both demand and supply，sport leisure has become an important life style of urban residents. Activities such as daily exercise，sport tourism and outdoor recreation are now widespread. However，there also exist some problems，for instance，slower consumption growth，relatively high basic consumption proportion，limited sport leisure awareness and inadequate sport facilities. All these factors still restrict the development，transformation and upgrading of sport leisure of urban residents. In the future，we should grasp the opportunity of supply-side structural reform of sport industry，and choose proper institutional arrangements，facility utilization efficiency，enterprise innovation ability as the entry points to motivate and satisfy the sport leisure demand of urban residents.
