The results indicate that the influence of parents and physical education teachers on the decision to join a sport club and to continue sport career is rather low. Main reasons behind joining a sport club are: the desire to become an athlete, sport idols, and the subjects’ own will. Staying in a sport club and pursuing a career is also determined by previous achievements in the field and good coaches. The parents´ past engagement in psychical activities was not systematic. The subjects consider local sport facilities and a number of accessible sport clubs and sports

  • Latvian Sportspeople Representation in English and Latvian Wikipedias
    32 | Rudzinska: LATVIAN SPORTSPEOPLE REPRESENTATION ... ORIGINAL RESEARCH PAPER LATVIAN SPORTSPEOPLE REPRESENTATION IN ENGLISH AND LATVIAN WIKIPEDIAS Ieva Rudzinska Latvian Academy of Sport Education Address: 333 Brivibas Street, Riga, LV-1006, Latvia Phone: 37167543445, fax: +37167543480 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The goal was to study Latvian sportspeople representation in English and Latvian Wikipedias in 2015. The analyses allowed identifying three main Latvian sportspeople related categories in English Wikipedia: “Latvian sportspeople”, “List of Latvian sportspeople” and “Latvian sports related lists”, a category “Latvijas sportisti” in Latvian Wikipedia. In “Latvian sportspeople” 1018 sportspeople were listed by family names, starting with Artis Ābols and ending with Ainārs Zvirgzdiņš, by sports – from Latvian alpine skiers to Latvian weightlifters. In “List of Latvian sportspeople” were included 99 most notable Latvian sportspeople, representing 24 sports. The largest athlete frequency per sport (14) was in 3 sports: athletics, basketball and luge. From 5 to 10 sportspeople were in 6 sports: rowing, bobsleigh, volleyball, ice hockey, judo and tennis, 15 sports were represented by 1 to 4 athletes. In Latvian Wikipedia in the category “Latvijas sportisti” were 1186 sportspeople from 38 sports. Statistical analysis allowed finding moderate Pearson correlations between the numbers of sportspeople in the category “Latvian sportspeople” and “List of Latvian sportspeople”, EN (0.60; Sig.<0.01); “List of Latvian sportspeople”,

  • Competitive Identity for Nation of Latvia – Lessons to Learn from National Hockey Team ‘’Dinamo Riga’’
    ISSN 1822 – 8402 EUROPEAN INTEGRATION STUDIES. 2010. No 4 COMpETITIVE IDEnTITY fOR nATIOn Of LATVIA – LESSOnS TO LEARn fROM nATIOnAL HOCKEY TEAM ‘’DInAMO RIGA’’ Ainars Brencis, Juris Ozols School of Business Administration Turiba Abstract nowadays global competition could be seen not only in corporate level, but also is exists among nations. Competition among nations is in following sectors – foreign investment, export and tourism. As there is competition between nations, regions and cities (as it is among corporations) there will be always need for methods to increase subject’s competitiveness – this can be defined as a Competitive Identity (porter 1998). Term Competitive Identity is used as broader expression of brand management for nations, Cities and Regions. Higher marketing effort is needed for developing (emerging) nations, and nations without resources (natural or man made) representing absolute advantages. nation branding has emerged relatively recently as an important field in the domain of international marketing. Anholt 2007 states marketing quality depends on all the national stakeholders (virtually society – people) working together in creating competitive identity. Media could be involved only after all the stakeholders speak one language about their country. Communication can’t substitute positive change; it can only help change to happen faster. Latvian authorities too often start from the least efficient – communication. According to nation Brands Index (NBI) and City Brand Barometer, Latvia and its capital Riga, shares one of the last places – 35 to 40th (depending on research type and year) place from forty among other nations and cities around the World. After regaining independence and collapse of almost all the industry, there was little left for positioning Latvia as a nation, so fanning for ice hockey was spontaneous and very convenient way for local people to speak common language about their nation.

    32 | Lauva et al: FINANCING MODEL FOR ... ORIGINAL RESEARCH PAPER FINANCING MODEL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LATVIAN ATHLETES Mārtiņš Lauva1, Uldis Grāvītis2 1Ventspils University College Address: 101 Inzenieru Street, Ventspils, LV-3601, Latvia E-mail: [email protected] 2Latvian Academy of Sport Education Address: 333 Brivibas Street, Riga, LV1006, Latvia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The organization of Latvian sports has come a long way since its foundation in the period of independence between the first and second World Wars. The following situation has developed in the organisational structure in sport in Latvia, individual sports and training expenses for individuals in these disciplines are financed by the state, whereas, team sports depend on funding provided by local governments, private sponsors and contributors. Subsidies to enable the participation of national teams in international games are allocated from the state budget, but there is no support system for the best representatives of team sports in order to develop their individual skill, as with individual disciplines. A support system for team athletes can facilitate success of a particular kind of sport at an international level. The youth sports system is mainly based on sports schools, which are maintained by local governments and are developing the most talented future athletes. The necessity for the establishment of specialized boardingschools, to bring together the best representatives in each kind of sport, in each age group nationwide, as well as the best professional coaches, is being frequently accentuated. Deficiencies in the public system can be remedied by attracting private capital investors. Organizations operating under the aegis of the Ministry of Education and Science have developed criteria for the allocation of funding to provide training for athletes.
