Relations between universities and sports can be broadly divided into three areas, teaching activities, research activities and extracurricular activities. This paper discusses the possibility of digital archives related to sports in physical education and extracurricular activities. Universities have made a significant contribution to the prevalence and development of sports in Japan. They should continue to contribute to the development of sports in terms of education, research and social contribution. The sports digital archive will lead to the preservation, succession and development of sports culture. However, current college sports do not have mechanisms to record, preserve and inherit their activities. It is hoped that the development of a sports digital archive will raise awareness of archiving among those involved in university sports, and develop university sports further.
