This book fills an important gap in the sport governance literature by engaging in critical reflection on the concept of ‘good governance’. It examines the theoretical perspectives that lead to different conceptualisations of governance and, therefore, to different standards for institutional quality. It explores the different practical strategies that have been employed to achieve the implementation of good governance principles. The first part of the book aims to shed light on the complexity and nuances of good governance by examining theoretical perspectives including leadership, value, feminism, culture and systems. The second part of the book has a practical focus, concentrating on reform strategies, from compliance policies and codes of ethics to external reporting and integrity systems. Together, these studies shed important new light on how we define and understand governance, and on the limits and capabilities of different methods for inducing good governance. With higher ethical standards demanded in sport business and management than ever before, this book is important reading for all advanced students and researchers with an interest in sport governance and sport policy, and for all sport industry professionals looking to improve their professional practice.

Haarlem heeft en doet veel voor jong en oud. Toch is er een groot aantal jongeren dat op de middelbare schoolleeftijd stopt met sporten en actief bewegen. Vooral adolescente meiden vinden het lastig een passend sportaanbod te vinden of actief te blijven. Maar welke sport- of beweegactiviteit past bij meiden in de leeftijdsgroep 13 tot 20 jaar, hoe moet een passende sport worden aangeboden en welke barrières ervaren zij op het gebied van sport en bewegen? Deze vragen waren de basis voor een onderzoek dat is uitgevoerd door de gemeente Haarlem in samenwerking met Hogeschool Inholland, SportSupport en Voetlab (KNVB).

The hospitality industry, comprising diverse Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) such as restaurants, hotels, and catering facilities plays an important role in local and regional communities by providing employment opportunities, facilitating the organization of community events, and supporting local social activities and sports teams (Panteia, 2023). The hospitality industry thereby represents a major source of income in Europe, but also a commensurate burden on the environment because of its relatively high usage of water and energy consumption, and food waste, leading to the formulation of several initiatives to increase the sustainability of hotels, restaurants, and resorts, such as farm to fork and towel reuse (Bux & Amicarelli, 2023). Another avenue for hospitality organizations to make progress towards sustainability goals is through circular economy strategies (Bux & Amicarelli, 2023) based on the creation of small regenerative loops that require the involvement of multiple stakeholders (Tomassini & Cavagnaro, 2022). Nevertheless, hospitality operators need to track their progress towards sustainability goals while keep sight of their financial goals (Bux & Amicarelli, 2023), requiring a data-driven decision-making approach to sustainability and circularity. Big data analytics have therefore been identified as an enabler of the circular economy paradigm by reducing uncertainty and allowing organizations to predict results (Awan et al., 2021; Gupta et al., 2019). Hospitality organizations however remain behind in leveraging data analytics for decisionmaking (Mariani & Baggio, 2022). The purpose of the study is therefore to examine how hospitality organizations can leverage data analytics to make data-driven decisions regarding circularity. Using a multiple case study approach of three Dutch hospitality SMEs, enablers and inhibitors of data analytics for datadriven decisions regarding circularity are examined. This addresses the call by Tomassini and Cavagnaro (2022) for more exploration of the circularity paradigm in hospitality. Despite the ongoing interest in increasing the sustainability of the hospitality industry (European Commission, 2013), relatively little attention has been paid to the development of circularity strategies and what is needed to implement them.

Sports are activities enjoyed by many across the globe, regardless of age. The existence and promotion of youth sports has often been based on various assumptions about its value and role in society. Sports participation is assumed to be fun and good and is assumed to contribute to the development of young people. As a result, sports are often seen as an essential part of life for youth. Participation in sports and physical activity is assumed to help young people to develop in a context in which they are able to learn important positive societal values (Fraser-Thomas et al., 2005; Holt, 2008). Although there is a widespread belief in the positive dimensions of sports participation for young people, there is a need for research and theory that identifies and critically looks at the processes through which sports participation by youth is experienced and shapes their lives (Coakley, 2011). I return to this critical perspective after I elaborate on the ways sports are viewed as important effective activities for positive youth development.

Neighbours have been found to influence each other’s behaviour (contagion effect). However, little is known about the influence on sport club membership. This while increasing interest has risen for the social role of sport clubs. Sport clubs could bring people from different backgrounds together. A mixed composition is a key element in this social role. Individual characteristics are strong predictors of sport club membership. Western high educated men are more likely to be members. In contrast to people with a nonWestern migration background. The neighbourhood is a more fixed meeting place, which provides unique opportunities for people from different backgrounds to interact. This study aims to gain more insight into the influence of neighbours on sport club membership. This research looks especially at the composition of neighbour’s migration background, since they tend to be more or less likely to be members and therefore could encourage of inhibit each other. A population database including the only registry data of all Dutch inhabitants was merged with data of 11 sport unions. The results show a cross-level effect of neighbours on sport club membership. We find a contagion effect of neighbours’ migration background; having a larger proportion of neighbours with a migration background from a non-Western country reduces the odds, as expected. However, this contagion effect was not found for people with a Moroccan or Turkish background.

Physical activity is crucial in human life, whether in everyday activities or elite sports. It is important to maintain or improve physical performance, which depends on various factors such as the amount of physical activity, the capability, and the capacity of the individual. In daily life, it is significant to be physically active to maintain good health, intense exercise is not necessary, as simple daily activities contribute enough. In sports, it is essential to balance capacity, workload, and recovery to prevent performance decline or injury.With the introduction of wearable technology, it has become easier to monitor and analyse physical activity and performance data in daily life and sports. However, extracting personalised insights and predictions from the vast and complex data available is still a challenge.The study identified four main problems in data analytics related to physical activity and performance: limited personalised prediction due to data constraints, vast data complexity, need for sensitive performance measures, overly simplified models, and missing influential variables. We proposed end investigated potential solutions for each issue. These solutions involve leveraging personalised data from wearables, combining sensitive performance measures with various machine learning algorithms, incorporating causal modelling, and addressing the absence of influential variables in the data.Personalised data, machine learning, sensitive performance measures, advanced statistics, and causal modelling can help bridge the data analytics gap in understanding physical activity and performance. The research findings pave the way for more informed interventions and provide a foundation for future studies to further reduce this gap.

The continuation of emotional abuse as a normalized practice in elite youth sport has received scholarly attention, often with the use of a Foucauldian framework. The use of sense-making, a theoretical framework that focuses on how meaning is created in ambiguous situations, may give additional insights into the continuation of emotionally abusive coaching practices. The purpose of this study was to apply the seven properties of sense-making to explore how athletes and parents made sense of coaching practices in elite women’s gymnastics. We interviewed 14 elite women gymnasts and their parents to examine how they made sense of what occurred during practices. The results show how the sense-making of athletes and parents was an ongoing activity that resulted in a code of silence and a normalization of abusive coaching practices.
