With the coordinate data of community sports facilities in Fuzhou and the Geographic Information System platform, this paper developed a research framework of accessibility from three aspects of distribution, service coverage and access equality level. In addition, based on this, this paper analyzed the level and characteristics of the accessibility of community sports facilities within the third ring road of Fuzhou, China. The results showed that the community sports facilities within the third ring road of Fuzhou basically achieved the coverage of being within a ten-minute walking distance, but there were still some deficiencies regarding to the distribution of facilities and the equality level of accessibility. In addition, the results showed poor spatial matching between the number of facilities and population. A shortage of community sports facilities was found in the old central urban area, leading to poor accessibility. It is suggested in this paper that an overall improvement could be carried out through urban renewal.
