Fujian province issued its 15th Five‑Year Sports Development Plan today, calling to deepen two‑way sports integration with Taiwan. The plan seeks more Fujian‑Taiwan joint teams in national leagues and aims to secure participation in national multisport games. It targets hosting a number of Taiwan‑Fujian events organized by national single‑sport associations and exploring co‑hosting rotating regional basketball and baseball tournaments with Taiwanese organizations. The province will expand Fujian‑Taiwan sports industry cooperate parks and invite Taiwanese firms to provincial sports expos. It also plans to strengthen a joint Fujian‑Taiwan provincial baseball team, improve incentives for Taiwanese athletes, support existing professional baseball clubs and encourage new clubs to enter domestic and international professional competitions.
