Sport development has become a significant part of the
international sport industry. The development of sport (creating
pathways for participation and talent development) and sport for
development (using sport as a tool to achieve outcomes beyond
sport) are now fundamental aspects of the organisation and
governance of sport around the world. Consequently, any manager
working in sport today needs to understand what sport development
is and how sport development programs can be managed, implemented
and evaluated. This is the first undergraduate textbook to offer a
complete introduction to sport development, covering theory and its
application to managerial practice, with examples from
international contexts. The book integrates discussion of the
development of sport and sport for development in every chapter,
with international case studies to illustrate the significance and
application of both. Each chapter introduces key theory, examines
the implications of theory for practice and critically analyses
practical managerial issues. Discussion of both able-bodied and
disability sport are embedded throughout, and the book includes a
range of useful features to aid understanding, such as learning
objectives, real world data and examples, key terms, review
questions, and a companion website containing slides and a test
bank for instructors. Managing Sport Development is an essential
text for any introductory sport development course, and invaluable
reading for any course on international sport management, sport
policy, sport governance, sport and social issues, or coach
education.
