Book Women in Sport Leadership

Download or read book Women in Sport Leadership written by Laura J. Burton and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although women and girls participate in sport in greater numbers than ever before, research shows there has been no significant increase in women leading sport organizations. This book takes an international, evidence-based perspective in examining women in sport leadership and offers future directions for improving gender equity. With contributions from leading international sport scholars and practitioners, it explores the opportunities and challenges women face while exercising leadership in sport organizations and evaluates leadership development practices. While positional leadership is crucial, this book argues that some women may choose to exercise leadership in non-positional ways, challenging readers to consider their personal values and passions. The chapters not only discuss key topics such as gender bias, intersectionality, quotas, networking, mentoring and sponsoring, but also present a variety of strategies to develop and support the next generation of women leaders in sport. A new model of how to achieve gender equity in sport leadership is also introduced. Women in Sport Leadership: Research and Practice for Change is important reading for all students, scholars, leaders, administrators, and coaches with an interest in sport business, policy and management, as well as women’s sport and gender studies.

Book Through My Eyes

Download or read book Through My Eyes written by Roderick Daniel and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through My Eyes points out certain issues in sports from a minority perspective, addresses the chess analogy of the industry, and the need for diversity. Are minority-athletes just pawns in sports? They're the ones in the battles, but are treated like underclass-citizens after completing their athletic careers for their institutions. Opportunity is the master key for unlocking doors for diversity. It's time for a change. "It's not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could've done better. The credit belongs to the man whose actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust, sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs; comes up short again and again, because there's no effort without error or shortcoming"..."who, at the best knows in the end the triumph of high-achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." -Theodore Roosevelt

Download or read book Common Enemies written by Thomas F. Schaller and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-11 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1980s Black athletes and other athletes of color broadened the popularity and profitability of major-college televised sports by infusing games with a “Black style” of play. At a moment ripe for a revolution in men’s college basketball and football, clashes between “good guy” white protagonists and bombastic “bad boy” Black antagonists attracted new fans and spectators. And no two teams in the 1980s welcomed the enemy’s role more than Georgetown Hoya basketball and Miami Hurricane football. Georgetown and Miami taunted opponents. They celebrated scores and victories with in-your-face swagger. Coaches at both programs changed the tenor of postgame media appearances and the language journalists and broadcasters used to describe athletes. Athletes of color at both schools made sports apparel fashionable for younger fans, particularly young African American men. The Hoyas and the ’Canes were a sensation because they made the bad-boy image look good. Popular culture took notice. In the United States sports and race have always been tightly, if sometimes uncomfortably, entwined. Black athletes who dare to challenge the sporting status quo are often initially vilified but later accepted. The 1980s generation of barrier-busting college athletes took this process a step further. True to form, Georgetown’s and Miami’s aggressive style of play angered many fans and commentators. But in time their style was not only accepted but imitated by others, both Black and white. Love them or hate them, there was simply no way you could deny the Hoyas and the Hurricanes.

Book Critical Race Theory  Black Athletic Sporting Experiences in the United States

Download or read book Critical Race Theory Black Athletic Sporting Experiences in the United States written by Billy J. Hawkins and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role of race in athletic programs in the United States. Intercollegiate athletics remains a contested terrain where race and racism are critical issues often absent in the public discourse. Recently, the economic motives of intercollegiate athletic programs and academic indiscretions have unveiled behaviors that stand to tarnish the images of institutions of higher education and reinforce racial stereotypes about the intellectual inabilities of Black males. Through the lens of Critical Race Theory (CRT), this volume analyzes sport as the platform that reflects and reinforces ideas about race within American culture, as well as the platform where resistance is forged against dominant racial ideologies.
