"Offering a complete introduction to sport development policy and practice, this book covers key theory, themes, issues and debates in sport development, without assuming any prior knowledge on the part of the reader. It outlines the organisational landscape of sport in the UK and explains important differences across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, as well as the global context. Examining both community and elite sport, it covers public, private and third sectors, including national and local government and national governing bodies, and considers change - cultural, managerial, social and political - as an element of sport development policy, strategy and operations. Every chapter includes in-depth case studies around which a seminar or tutorial can be based, as well as definitions of key concepts and terminology that students and practitioners are likely to encounter during their studies or professional practice. Questions at the end of each chapter encourage the reader to reflect on their own work, and useful guides to further reading make the book an ideal jumping off point for further study. This is the perfect foundation textbook for any sport development course taken as part of a degree program in sport development, sport management or sport coaching"-- |
