This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An interesting trend in the personality literature has been the assessment of the relationship between personality traits and athletic performances. In non-sport settings, the conscientiousness trait has been found to be strongly related to a number of good outcomes including job and training proficiency, academic performances, and physical activity (Barrick & Mout, 1991; Poropat, 2009; Rhodes & Smith, 2006). In the athletic setting, similar findings have been found with soccer players (Piedmont, Hill, & Blanco, 1999), football players (Tran, 2012) and Division 1 collegiate athletes (Saale-Prasad, 2014). However, in professional hockey these findings have generally not been replicated (Karp, 2000; Cameron, Cameron, Dithurbide & Lalonde, 2006; Man & Wohl, 1985). Thus, the purpose of this study was to further investigate the relationship between personality and a variety of indicators of hockey performances. The sample was comprised of 27 male hockey players from a major junior team in the Pacific Northwest. Participant ages ranged from 15 years old to 20 years old (mean age=18 years old). Personality was assessed using the Big Five Inventory (BFI; John & Srivastava, 1999). The BFI is a validated and reliable instrument that categorizes personality into five dimensions --extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism and openness to experience (John & Srivastava, 1999). Findings suggest a subtle link between personality and hockey performance. Directions for future research is discussed"--Leaf iv.

And no other text prepares students for the task as effectively as Managing Sport Events, Third Edition With HKPropel Access. While other texts in this space stray into the area of facility management, Managing Sport Events keeps its focus where it should be by providing a thorough grounding of the entire event management process. Beginning with an overview of event conception and development, the text then moves into the principal planning areas of budgeting, marketing, promotion, sponsorships, and legal and risk management. Later chapters focus on key operational areas such as staffing, event services and logistics, and event-day management, and it closes with postevent details and evaluation. The third edition includes new and updated content that incorporates plenty of contemporary real-life examples: Insights into how event management has been affected by COVID-19 and by the emergence of social media, sustainability efforts, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives All-new content addressing the role of brand ambassadors, social media influencers, and nontraditional media in promoting events and encouraging fan engagement An updated discussion of event sponsorships and how sport organizations are implementing creative activation strategies, pre-event and game-day deliverables, and the latest technologies to maximize exposure and measure effectiveness An expanded discussion of contracts and other legal considerations such as compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) An expanded section outlining how principles of project management can be used to effectively plan events New industry profiles that provide insights into key players and noteworthy happenings in event management Related online activities, delivered through HKPropel, provide robust learning opportunities for students: A brand-new semester-long project in which students plan, prepare, produce, and evaluate a fictional pickleball tournament as well as compile a formal event management plan handbook Scenario-based activities in which students make a decision and then see the implications of their choice Mini case studies for each chapter with questions to test comprehension Sample contracts that represent common agreements encountered in event management Practicing and aspiring professionals working in parks and recreation, tourism, hospitality, and sport organizations at all levels—youth, high school, college, amateur, minor league, professional, and international—will find this book a valuable reference in their roles as event managers. Blending traditional business tenets of sport management with the distinct aspects of event management, Managing Sport Events, Third Edition, prepares readers to manage events with efficiency and ease so that fans and participants alike have lasting game-day memories.

Book Darwin s Athletes

Download or read book Darwin s Athletes written by John Hoberman and published by HMH. This book was released on 1997-11-03 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “provocative, disturbing, important” look at how society’s obsession with athletic achievement undermines African Americans (The New York Times). Very few pastimes in America cross racial, regional, cultural, and economic boundaries the way sports do. From the near-religious respect for Sunday Night Football to obsessions with stars like Tiger Woods, Serena Williams, and Michael Jordan, sports are as much a part of our national DNA as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But hidden within this reverence—shared by the media, corporate America, even the athletes themselves—is a dark narrative of division, social pathology, and racism. In Darwin’s Athletes, John Hoberman takes a controversial look at the profound and disturbing effect that the worship of sports, and specifically of black players, has on national race relations. From exposing the perpetuation of stereotypes of African American violence and criminality to examining the effect that athletic dominance has on perceptions of intelligence to delving into misconceptions of racial biology, Hoberman tackles difficult questions about the sometimes subtle ways that bigotry can be reinforced, and the nature of discrimination. An important discussion on sports, cultural attitudes, and dangerous prejudices, Darwin’s Athletes is a “provocative book” that serves as required reading in the ongoing debate of America’s racial divide (Publishers Weekly).
