Sport officials are tasked with maintaining order and adjudicating
sport contests. Given their multifaceted role in enforcing rules,
standardizing competitions, and keeping sport safe for all
participants, they are a requisite part of the sport workforce.
With ongoing reports of annual attrition rates in officiating in
excess of 20-35% for various sports around the world, there is more
than ample evidence that officiating dropout is a persistent,
pervasive, and global challenge underpinned by multiple
contributing factors including, but not limited to, the threat of
verbal and physical abuse. Moreover, despite worldwide recognition
and growing interest in the problem, there has not been a
comprehensive resource for sport scientists and practitioners
studying or working to reverse the ongoing trend. Sport
Officiating: Recruitment, Development, and Retention provides a
'state of the science' summary in the emerging area of inquiry
limited to sport officiating recruitment, development, and
retention, and, provides insight and evidence-based approaches to
the development of successful officiating development programs
(ODP). This book is a primary reference work using a multifaceted,
holistic, and evidence-based approach to integrate key findings
from the sport science literature to date in suggesting and
providing real-world solutions to the practical issues faced by
sport organizers. Sport Officiating: Recruitment, Development, and
Retention is a key resource for researchers interested in the
development of sport officials and for sport practitioners aiming
to implement officiating development programs (ODP) at any level
within sport systems.
