The China national wushu team represents China in IWUF international competitions. In its entire history, the China national wushu team has never been undefeated on any medal-table in terms of the number of gold medals won. The national wushu team of China is not an official entity or training group since its team members mostly practice with their provincial teams and meet as a national delegation in advance of major international competitions.[1]
