    STUDY Requested by the CULT committee EU sports policy: assessment and possible ways forward Policy Department for Structural and Cohesion Policies Directorate-General for Internal Policies EN PE 652.251 - June 2021 3 RESEARCH FOR CULT COMMITTEE EU sports policy: assessment and possible ways forward Since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, the EU has been entitled to support, coordinate or complement Member States’ activities in sport. European sports policies of the past decade are characterised by numerous activities and by on-going differentiation. Against this backdrop, the study presents policy options in four key areas: the first covers the need for stronger coordination; the second aims at the setting of thematic priorities; the third addresses the reinforcement of the role of the EP in sport and the fourth stipulates enhanced monitoring.

    THESIS DECOLONIZING TRANSNESS IN SPORT MEDIA: THE FRAMES AND DEPICTIONS OF TRANSGENDER ATHLETES IN SPORTS ILLUSTRATED Submitted By Tammy Rae Matthews Department of Journalism and Media Communication In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Science Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Catherine Knight Steele Co-Advisor: Kris Kodrich Joseph Champ Caridad Souza Copyright by Tammy Rae Matthews 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT DECOLONIZING TRANSNESS IN SPORT MEDIA: THE FRAMES AND DEPICTIONS OF TRANSGENDER ATHLETES IN SPORTS ILLUSTRATED This discourse analysis examines depictions of trans athletes in Sports Illustrated and sport culture through the lens of queer theory and the interpretive-packages model proposed by Gamson and Modigliani (1989). Four interpretive packages emerged from the print content: (1) Marginalization, (2) Labeling, (3) Fighting and Fairness and (4) Pride and Affirmation. The results illustrate that discourse has generally become more sensitive to trans issues. The author presents these results with cautious optimism. Blindingly affirming and romancing the transgender can be equally as superficial as marginalization, and representations of trans athletes secured by one person are problematic. Researchers and sport organizations should dismantle antiquated, coercive sex segregation in traditional sport and decolonize how it contributes to gender-based oppression. The author recommends that media outlets focus on presenting fair, accurate and

Barber School of Psychology, Murdoch University Perth, Western Australia, Australia E-mail: [email protected] and Karina Weichold Department of Developmental Psychology, University of Jena Jena, Germany E-mail: [email protected] We have noted increasing consideration of the developmental consequences of sport and physical activity for development, fuelled by growing recognition of the possible role of such activities in both promoting positive development and preventing unhealthy outcomes. In addition to the established health benefits of physical activity, sport can provide a forum for engagement in challenging tasks, identity exploration, skill building, and social integration. Such benefits are likely to be relevant across developmental stages, gender, and culture. In keeping with our efforts to cover the lifespan in this been international leaders in the emerging research focus special section of the newsletter, we have invited contri- on sports and development.

  • Penrose.DOC 2
    Peka Totara Penrose High School Golden Jubilee 1955 –2005 Graeme Hunt Inspiration from One Tree Hill The school crest, a totara in front of the obelisk marking the grave of ‘father of Auckland’ Sir John Logan Campbell on One Tree Hill (Maungakiekie), signals the importance of the pa and reserve to Penrose High School. It was adopted in 1955 along with the Latin motto, ‘Ad Altiora Contende’, which means ‘strive for higher things’. Foundation principal Ron Stacey, a Latin scholar, described the school in 1955 as a ‘young tree groping courageously towards the skies’. ‘We look upward towards the summit of Maungakiekie where all that is finest in both Maori and Pakeha is commemorated for ever in stone and bronze,’ he wrote. In 1999 a red border was added to the crest but the crest itself remained unchanged. In 1987 the school adopted a companion logo based on the kiekie plant which grew on One Tree Hill in pre-European times (hence the Maungakiekie name). The logo arose from a meeting of teachers debating education reform where the school’s core values were identified. The words that appear on the kiekie logo provide a basis for developing the school’s identity. The kiekie, incorporated in the school’s initial charter in 1989, does not replace the crest but rather complements it. School prayer† School hymn† Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, Go forth with God! We pray that you will bless this school, Go forth with God! the day is now Guide and help those who teach, and those who learn, That thou must meet the test of youth: That together, we may seek the truth, Salvation's helm upon thy brow, And grow in understanding of ourselves and other people Go, girded with the living truth.

  • Teen Sport in America: Why Participation Matters
    TEEN SPORT IN AMERICA: WHY PARTICIPATION MATTERS January 2018 A Women’s Sports Foundation Report www.WomensSportsFoundation.org • 800.227.3988 Women’s Sports Foundation Acknowledgments This research builds on previous research and policy that view teen sports as an educational tool and public health asset. However, little to no research has scrutinized whether adolescent health and educational achievement vary from sport to sport. First, the Women’s Sports Foundation is indebted to the study authors, Nicole Zarrett, Ph.D., Philip Veliz, Ph.D., and Don Sabo, Ph.D. We’re proud to be associated with such creative and excellent researchers and writers. We are grateful to Bruce Y. Lee, M.D., M.B.A., the primary author of the policy recommendations, for his thoughtful and thorough development of recommendations that can lead to improvements in how teens experience sport. We are deeply indebted to Deborah Slaner Larkin, who originally championed the idea that each sport might make unique contributions to the health and well-being of American youth and that understanding these benefits would ultimately lead to more opportunities for youth to play sports. She was a powerful advocate and supporter for this line of research when she served as the Executive Director of the USTA Serves (now Foundation) and oversaw the development and conduct of the research that resulted in More Than A Sport: Tennis, Education, and Health, a first-of-its-kind nationwide study that compared the educational and health profiles of adolescent tennis participants with participants in other non-contact sports and contact sports, as well as high school students who did not participate in sports.
