Much of the landscape of K-12 education is infused with sports. In
the United States and the United Kingdom, nearly half of
school-aged children play some form of organized sport. The impact
of athletics on schools is enormous when informal athletic activity
and the ubiquity of sports merchandise are also taken into account.
What does this mean for educators? What challenges and
opportunities do sports and athletic participation present to
educators serving in K-12 schools? As an introductory text, Sports
and K-12 Education addresses these questions through an accessible
and engaging collection of chapters divided into three overarching
themes: sports and classroom success; sports and identity; and
sports, media, and schools. The book's diverse set of
authors-scholars, teachers, administrators, former athletes,
athletic directors-offer a multifaceted exploration on a range of
topics, including parallels between coaching and teaching, the
complexities of student-athlete identity, role conflict among
teacher coaches, strategies for supporting athletes from
marginalized populations, media representations of female athletes,
sports values and teaching, and more.
