  • The Impacts of New Football Stadiums on Home Advantage
    School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences Movable Temples: The impacts of new football stadiums on Home Advantage (Templos Móveis: Os impactos dos novos estádios de futebol no Fator Casa) Marco Pereira da Silva Sirangelo Bachelor of Administration by Fundação Getulio Vargas Supervised by Prof. Paul Downward A project submitted in part fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Sport Management 2017 Loughborough University Introdução em português O presente documento foi apresentado e posteriormente aprovado com avaliação Merit, como projeto final do programa de mestrado em gestão esportiva oferecido pela Universidade de Loughborough, no Reino Unido, turma de 2017. Segue abaixo um breve resumo deste estudo, seguido da versão original. Apresentação do tema Os estádios representam um componente essencial ao ambiente do futebol. Esses locais não somente recebem as partidas, como também estão frequentemente associados com a identidade e senso de comunidade que são carregados pelos clubes. A partir do aumento da atividade econômica relacionada ao esporte, os estádios, que antigamente priorizavam apenas a execução de jogos de futebol, tornaram-se importantes ferramentas comerciais com amplo impacto na estrutura financeira dos clubes. Desta maneira, motivados principalmente pela possibilidade de aumento em suas receitas, diversos clubes de futebol ao redor do mundo decidiram por reformar, expandir ou construir novos estádios. Recentemente, apenas na Europa, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Roma e Barcelona anunciaram planos de modificação de seus atuais campos, enquanto outros clubes, como Atlético de Madrid, Tottenham e Juventus, já implantaram esta estratégia. Essa decisão de mudar de estádio gera um amplo debate entre o que podemos chamar de stakeholders dos clubes de futebol, tais como jogadores, torcedores, donos ou acionistas (quando aplicável), autoridades locais, ligas e federações.

For the World. For the Economy?”1 -The Sport Economics of FIFA World Cups in Germany 2006 and Brazil 2014 Introduction The game of soccer2 is, arguably, the most popular one in the world. No other sport is internationally as well known and supported by fans and ordinary people across the world. Hosting the FIFA World Cup, which takes place every 4 years, is one of the greatest privileges and honors of soccer nations. The term FIFA derives from the Fédération Internationale de Soccer Association, the governing body of international soccer. The image-building and self- marketing effect of the mega-event is indisputable. However, the hosting of the event is associated with high costs to fulfill FIFA standards and the expectations of the international community. The goal of this research is to analyze the return on investment relating to the World Cup and to find out if it is a beneficial decision to host this mega-event. To fulfil this goal, a comparative study of two countries is conducted: Germany, which hosted the FIFA World Cup in 2006 and Brazil, which did so in 2014.
