Within the current legal framework

the protection of labor rights and interests of underage youth training e-sports players faces significant predicaments. This article points out that such players often fall into a legal gray area of "resembling work but not working" due to the widespread signing of non-standard agreements

such as training contracts and brokerage contracts. As a result

they generally lack core rights and interests

including rest and vacation entitlements and social insurance. Meanwhile

the conflict between anti-addiction policies and the selection needs of youth training players has given rise to avoidance behaviors

such as the "shadow status" practice

thereby intensifying the risks they face. To address these issues

a "break and establish" approach is proposed. On the one hand

the "break" aspect calls for reconstructing the criteria for identifying labor relationships based on the "facts-first" principle

and constructing a triple-subordination review list covering personality

economic

and organizational dimensions. On the other hand

the "establish" aspect entails the creation of a "vocational training franchise registration" system

a nationally unified digital management platform

standardized contracts

and a full-cycle support network that encompasses career planning

psychological counseling

cultural education

and post-retirement transformation.
