The Qatari duo, however, took up the challenge and de- cided to raise their bar so high that their challengers can’t trouble them. This was what they exactly did in Thailand and returned after completing a grand Asian golden double. The Qataris, who were ear- lier teamed up with different partners, began playing to- gether this year under Argen- tine mentor and former world champion Mariano Baracetti. Younousse and Tijan left an enduring impression on the FIVB Beach World Tour, having won two bronze med- als – one at the home event in Katara (4-Star) and other at the Vienna Major (5-Star). In the process, they also gained a high 7th FIVB world ranking (based on best eight re- sults of the season). After the podium ceremony in Satun, Younousse said he is proud to bring again glory to Qatar. “It was a memorable fin- ish for us. We’re proud to follow up the Asian Games gold medal with the Asian title. It is the first time that any Qatari team has won it. “We played well and tried to keep our level high.

  • Insights from Emerging Sport Tourism Destinations
    Hosting Regional Sport Events: Insights from Emerging Sport Tourism Destinations by Kenwyn Peter McComie A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Recreation and Leisure Studies – Tourism Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 © Kenwyn Peter McComie 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate and gain stakeholder insights into the nature of hosting sport tourism events and using them as a regional development strategy in two emerging sport tourism markets (i.e., regions that have recently begun to explore the potential of hosting small-scale sport events as a tourism development strategy). Specifically, the current research addressed five research questions in relation to tourism stakeholders’ input from the Waterloo and Niagara Regions in Ontario, Canada: (i) Why do destinations engage in sport tourism development strategies? (ii) What are perceived constraints to engaging in sport tourism events as development strategies? (iii) How do stakeholders decide which sport events to pursue, bid for and host? (iv) What are the perceived regional impacts of hosting sport tourism events? (v) What extent is leveraging these impacts considered in sport tourism strategy development? A total of 10 semi-structured interviews were conducted with key sport and tourism decision making stakeholders in the two regions during February and March 2015.
