This year the event is taking place in Switzerland with the Student Seminar and the PhD Seminar in Magglingen and the Conference in the beautiful city of Bern. Since the first event in Groningen in 1993, the EASM Conference has been a significant EASM product, providing a great opportunity to promote and develop sport management through re- search, education and practice — not to mention the opportunity to make new friends, meet old acquaintances and discover new European cities! This year, we have together with our hosts, The Institute of Sport Science of the University of Bern and the Swiss Federal Institute of Sport Magglingen, put together a high profile scientific program- me with plenary and parallel sessions and workshops; a PhD Seminar and a Student Seminar for students in sport management from all over the world and further social events and free time to discover and enjoy the nice city of Bern. The planning and the arrangements during the last two years up to the conference goes to show that it was a very good choice giving the Bern group the opportunity to host the 25th EASM Conference in 2017. I’d like to thank the people involved in the conference, the keynote speakers, the authors/sub- mitters, the students for their efforts. But most of all I send greetings of gratitude to all the Local organisers led by Professor Dr. Siegfried Nagel and Dr. Tim Ströbel from the University of Bern together with Dr. Hippolyt Kempf from the Swiss Federal Institute of Sport Magglingen for putting everything together so well. We are confident you will enjoy the whole conference experience, the sharing of knowledge and contribution this will make to our Association. PG Fahlström President of EASM Jönköping, Sweden June 2017 5 Welcome Note Local Organising Committee We are pleased to welcome you to the 25th annual conference of the European Association for Sport Management (EASM): Challenges and Developments of Sport Organisations. The Institute of Sport Science of the University of Bern and the Swiss Federal Institute of Sport Magglingen are honoured to host this important sport management conference for the first time in Switzerland. A quick look at the Book of Abstracts shows that we can expect a rich and inspiring scientific pro- gramme with about 300 contributions of academics and practitioners from over 30 countries of all continents. During the conference days at the University of Bern, there will be six keynotes from outstanding experts in the field of sport management, four thematic symposia, five workshops, more than 50 parallel sessions and four sessions with short presentations and posters. Right be- fore the conference, over 20 participants of the PhD Student Seminar and more than 50 students and tutors of the Student Seminar meet in Magglingen to enhance their scientific and managerial skills. All of this would not have been possible without our fantastic organising team and the significant support of both institutes in Bern and Magglingen. Thank you very much! We will do our utmost to offer an interesting programme, establish network platforms to connect with colleagues and representatives from international sport organisations and companies as well as provide opportunities to meet and make friends. We are very confident that there will be many fruitful scientific discussions and the research presented will contribute to improve the practice of sport management, the work of sport organisations and sport policy. Let us all strive for the suc- cessful development of sport as well as sport management in Europe. Switzerland, and Bern in particular, is not only well known for its rich cultural history and landsca- pe, but also for cheese and chocolate. We will make sure all participants will have the opportunity to experience this “Swissness” alongside the official conference programme. We hope you will enjoy the 25th EASM Conference and wish you a pleasant stay in Switzerland. Siegfried Nagel, Hippolyt Kempf & Tim Ströbel on behalf of the Local Organising Committee Bern, Switzerland August 2017 6 Reviewers 7 We would like to thank the members of the EASM Conference Scientific Committee, Tim Ströbel, Claas Christian Germelmann and Hippolyt Kempf for the great teamwork. As a team, we like to express our sin- cere thanks to all the reviewers who have kindly volunteered their valuable time in order to help colleagues to progress with their work and to increase the overall scientific quality of the conference.

Therefore, the aim of this study was to conceptualize and develop a reliable and valid instrument to assess AME. In Edited by: Costantino Balestra, Study 1, a focus group interview established the initial framework of AME. Study 2 used Haute École Bruxelles-Brabant a survey to collect athletes’ experiences of AME and develop a scale draft titled “Athletic (HE2B), Belgium Mental Energy Scale (AMES).” In Study 3, we examined the psychometric properties and Reviewed by: the underlying structure of AMES via item analysis, internal consistency, and exploratory Diogo Monteiro, Escola Superior de Desporto de Rio factor analysis (EFA).

  • Sport and Development Module MBA in Sports Management, Escuela Universitaria Real Madrid Martha Saavedra, Phd, April 2015
    Sport and Development Module MBA in Sports Management, Escuela Universitaria Real Madrid Martha Saavedra, PhD, April 2015 This module will investigate the relationship between contemporary sport, politics and development. Sport is often posited as a tool to assist in economic and social development. The World Bank, the International Olympic Committee, international sport federations, major professional sport leagues, national governments and a myriad of other advocates argue that sport can contribute to the empowerment, prosperity, health and overall well-being of individuals, communities, and nation-states. For countries facing acute demographic shifts towards youth, many look to sport to alleviate unemployment, drug use and delinquency. For those on the other side of the demographic transition, sport can provide physical, mental and social benefits to improve the well-being of an aging population. Sport can be used to promote social inclusion of otherwise marginalized people. Finally, in situations of conflict or natural disaster, sport might also contribute to unity, peace and humanitarian relief. In this module we will examine these claims by looking at the history of modern sport, its relationship to the political realm, and its contributions to what is called "development". Some of the topics covered include: colonialism, imperialism, nationalism, the modern state, globalization, international sporting institutions, elite versus mass sport, and mega-events. The module will pay close attention to factors of social power and capital as well as gender, sexuality, class, race and ableness. For sport industry professionals, this module will also provide frameworks to assist in assessing how historical and sociocultural forces shape the sporting milieu, creating both challenges and opportunities.

  • Original Article Sunk Cost Effect in the Korea Basketball League
    Journal of Physical Education and Sport ® (JPES), 15(4), Art 106, pp. 697 - 701, 2015 online ISSN: 2247 - 806X; p-ISSN: 2247 – 8051; ISSN - L = 2247 - 8051 © JPES Original Article Sunk cost effect in the Korea basketball league HONGRYUL KIM1, SANGHYUN PARK1, DOYEON WON1 1Department of Sport and Leisure Studies, Yonsei University, REPUBLIC OF KOREA Published online: December 26, 2015 (Accepted for publication October 20, 2015) DOI:10.7752/jpes.2015.04106 Abstract: This study examines the sunk cost effect, an irrational behavior, by using Korea professional basketball players’ performance records and playing time. Data covering 2001 to 2010 were collected from diverse statistical records from the Korean Basketball League (KBL) website. An initial sample of 187 KBL rookies was collected; 115 samples were ultimately retained after 72 without official records or who retired within three years were removed. The results based on ordinary least squares regressions showed that, first, prior point per game, prior toughness, and prior accuracy were significant predictors of playing time in the second season. Second, prior point per game was a significant predictor of playing time in the third season. Third, the sunk cost effect was statistically discovered in the third season. Key words: sunk cost fallacy; decision-making; Korea Basketball League, player draft Introduction Decision makers generally make rational decisions based on prior results, but this does not always lead to desirable outcomes. Irreversible costs due to choices that cannot be reversed can accrue through the commitment of resources (Borland, Lee and Macdonald 2010). Although decision makers tend to consider only the additional expenses and benefits when making rational decision, they also tend to overestimate the initial expenditure and then exaggerate the investment (Thaler 1980).

  • Children's Experience of Youth Sport: a Case Study. Reon Sadiman
    Children’s experience of youth sport: A case study. Reon Sadiman A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Sport and Exercise (MSpEx) 29 July 2017 Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences Primary Supervisor: Dr Simon Walters Secondary Supervisor: Adrian Farnham Abstract It is widely recognized that sport can offer a range of health benefits for children, encompassing physical, social, emotional and psychological domains. Despite this, research both internationally and in New Zealand suggests that attrition rates for youth participating in sport after the age of 15 years are high. A range of reasons have been highlighted as to why children drop out of sport which include a lack of fun, limited playing time and perceptions of poor teaching or coaching, or pressure from parents. Parents and coaches have therefore been identified as key influencers whose actions and involvement can determine children’s sporting experiences. The purpose of this qualitative descriptive case study was to explore children’s (aged 7-13 years) experiences of sport within a New Zealand context. It was hoped that the information and experiences provided by the participants in this case study could be used to improve the experiences of children engaging in adult controlled sport in the future. The focus of this instrumental case study were: a 12-week urban-based community led tag rugby programme; capturing the perspectives of children (aged 7- 13 years) who participated in the programme; the perspectives of parents of these children who attended a ‘culture change’ educational workshop (a Good Sports community module); and researcher observations of both the sporting environment experienced by these children, and of the Good Sports community module delivered for the parents.

Tim Tebow. Johnny “Football” Manziel. Anyone who has tuned into ESPN has probably heard at least one of the names of these famed college athletes. In the hearts of many college-graduated American citizens is a loyalty to a team they became attached to in their transition into adulthood. College team fandom is often times a major factor in the lives of graduates who go through their lives cheering on the latest star for their team. Teams, like the Texas A&M Aggies who employed the talents of Manziel, profit greatly from televising football; according to USA Today, the university saw $120 million in revenue from its athletic department. Needless to say, schools are making a hefty income off their players. But an issue remains: the players are not being rewarded for their hard work. According to National College Athletic Association (NCAA) rules, schools are forbidden from offering any form of compensation beyond a scholarship in exchange for a student’s talents, and students are not permitted to accept endorsement deals of any kind. That means players make a net- zero profit off their talents throughout their entire four years of schooling, and players who receive partial-to-no scholarships and must pay tuition are essentially paying to work for their schools.
