In order to promote wushu development, the Wushu Research Institute of theNational Sports Commission was established with the approval of the State Council. In September 1987, Wushu Section was incorporated into the Wushu Research Institute of the National SportsCommission. In May 1994, the Wushu Administration Center of the National Sports Commission was established with the overall function of the administration of wushu events.

In September 1958, the Chinese Wushu Association was established. It is the national organization of Chinese wushu, and one of the single event associations under the All-China Sports Federation. The Chinese Wushu Association has extensive exchanges and cooperation with other wushu associations around the world.
