Incorporating the former building’s historical façade, Pepsi Arena is a world-class club stadium with a capacity of over 31,000 spectators (the fifth largest in Poland’s Ekstraklasa top league). Built by the City of Warsaw to the specific designs of the club (which, in turn, signed a 23 year rental agreement), the €105m stadium incorporates an open promenade, three distinct premium club areas, a fully-equipped TV broadcast studio, suites, 380 parking spaces, a Museum and club shop, plus a sports bar and other retail and catering outlets. Your expert guides include: • Marek Drabczyk, Sales and Marketing Director, Legia Warsaw FC, Poland (Project Manager for the new Legia stadium from 2008-2011) 20.30 Welcome Reception / Drinks 21.30 Reception ends / Coach return to Hilton Warsaw TUESDAY 13 NOVEMBER 8.30 Registration & Networking at Hilton Warsaw 9.00 Welcome Introduction to TheStadiumBusiness Design & Development Summit 2012 • Ian Nuttall, Founder, TheStadiumBusiness / Xperiology, UK Your moderator for TheStadiumBusiness Design & Development Summit: • Andrew Williams, Founder, Align2, UK 9.15 Keynote address Planning and realisation of stadiums for major sports events What are the main challenges in stadium construction and program management? And how best do we overcome them? Addressing the importance of high quality site operation and coordination between all stakeholders is essential to ensure project schedules are realistic and adhered to. And, of course, frequent monitoring and response to programme changes is vital. Our expert opening speaker is: • Charles R. Botta, CEO, Botta Management Group AG, Switzerland 9.45 Session 1: New Construction Experiences Our opening session delves into the construction experiences of major new sports facility projects. We sample recently finished projects and explore what happened, the challenges that were unforeseen and the lessons learnt. 9.45 The Revitalization of BC Place, Vancouver In 2007 the British Columbia Pavilion Corporation (PavCo), a provincial government agency, embarked on a journey of renewal for an ageing stadium. The initial project brief was a simple request for material replacement of the existing air supported roof and improvements to public areas prior to the Olympics. But, rather than simply replacing the roof, the project emerged and evolved into a more holistic – and ambitious – project, to embrace new business opportunities including a Major League Soccer franchise for Vancouver with a unique soccer-specific configuration, and to transform BC Place into an incredible, world-class multipurpose facility. • Laurenz Kosichek, Senior Associate, Stantec, Canada ! 4! THE STADIUM BUSINESS DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT SUMMIT 2012! CONFERENCE SCHEDULE TUESDAY 13 NOVEMBER 10.15 Lessons from PGE Arena, Poland One of the most beautiful stadiums of this year’s EURO2012 tournament, PGE Arena (originally called Baltic Arena), is now the largest stadium in Poland’s Ekstraklasa top football league. Built at a cost of €185m, this 46,000 capacity stadium incorporates many innovative design features. Construction started in 2008 and was completed in mid-2011 – sharing his project diary is the stadium’s lead designer: • Lukas Hampl, Associated Partner, RKW Rhode Kellermann Wawrowsky, Germany 10.45 Coffee break 11.15 Session 2: Form Follows Function - Fact or Fiction? The so-called ‘F-factor’ challenge is a dominant theme of sports venue construction. In our brand-driven world, isn’t design more important than ever? But at what cost? The days of bare concrete structures and endless standardised seating have given way to multiple customer segments, embedded sponsorship and higher quality finishes and materials. Where do we spend the money? And where we can hold back? Rising to the eternal debate are: 11.15 Perfect Cents: Investing in Design Historically seating capacity was the driving force behind stadium design. More seats meant more revenue meant a bigger building. But today’s trend towards boutique service, segmented customer experiences and embedded sponsor branding often creates a situation where ‘less is more’. Investing in design is the new economic reality. • David Manica, Principal, MANICA Architecture, USA 11.40 Better By Design: Applying Thematic and Operational Design in Venues TelstraClear Pacific Events Centre is an award-winning project which combines a 3,000 seat arena and a 700 seat theatre in one iconic structure. The facility opened on time and within budget in April 2005 and is one of New Zealand’s venue success stories. Now, resource consents and business plans for stage 2 (“Wero”) are in place for what will be a project of international significance. Our speaker – who ‘spearheaded’ the concept and development of the Centre from a greenfield site 10 years ago – will explore how applying thematic and operational design can not only make venues more functional; but, crucially, enhance their commercial viability. • Richard Jeffery, CEO, Telstra Clear Pacific Events Centre, New Zealand 12.05 Building lessons from the AEG Facilities playbook As one of the world’s largest sports and entertainment facility operators, AEG has unique insights into operating buildings, from the inside out. Balancing the diverse demands of all venue stakeholders (owners, operators, teams, sponsors, VIPs and fans), the company has established new guidelines on what works and what doesn’t when it comes to designing, building and fitting-out new facilities. Drawing on recent case studies – including the opening of Ülker Arena in Istanbul and BBVA Compass Stadium in Houston – our speaker will share some vital insights to consider, before pouring any concrete! • Raj Saha, Regional Director of Operations, AEG Facilities, Europe 12.30 Guest Speaker 2018 FIFA World Cup, development of Russia host cities’ infrastructure, problems and prospects Preparation for the FIFA World Cup™ 2018 requires reconstruction of the transport and hotel infrastructure, improvement of the security system, and the use of international experience – along with 12 stadium projects in the 11 host cities. • Natalia Kochetova, Russian Association for Sports Facilities (RASF), Russian Federation 13.00 Lunch ! 5!

    #Morethanfootball Action Weeks 2019 19.03.2019 – 09.04.2019 Pass it On! Information Pack and Toolkit Introduction Football and it’s clubs, leagues, associations and governing bodies have always been about much more than just a game, professional football club or organisation of governance. The first two years of the #Morethanfootball Action Weeks have shown there is an appetite amongst the football familty to use the game as a tool for social development. The #Morethanfootball Action Weeks have allowed us to follow many great initiatives showcasing how football addresses key societal issues on an increasing scale. Yet, CSR often seems to be done in the background with little or no attention given to it by the mainstream football media. You will find thousands of articles, blogs, social media posts, news, television talk shows about the teams performance, team selection, transfers and the build up to fixtures however very rarely do you see stories of the excellent daily work being done through football organisations community and social development initiatives. All European clubs are much more than just the 11 players on the pitch. In order to showcase and further broaden the reach of Community and Social Responsibility in European football the#Morethanfootball Action Weeks were established in 2017. Following the success from the campaign in it’s first 2 years, the 2019 #Morethanfootball Action Weeks again brings together the European football community to not only celebrate the work done in the CSR field over a 2 week period but to create a #Morethanfootball ongoing movement. European Football = Morethanfootball Pass it On! What are the #Morethanfootball Action Weeks The #Morethanfootball Action Weeks are a global campaign for the European football community to showcase the impact of their community and social responsibility activities and programmes.

Tel.: +48 22 669 09 25. e-mail: [email protected] The Impact of Primary Socialisation on the Choice of the Ultimate Sport of Choice by Players of the First-League Legia Warsaw Football Club Submission: 23.12.2013; acceptance: 20.05.2014 Key words: primary socialisation, career choices, Legia Warsaw, football players Abstract: Introduction. Socialisation, including primary socialisation, is a focus of interest for social scientists, sociologists in particular. Empirical findings indicate that primary socialisation which people go through in the early years of their lives plays a fundamental role in preparing them for living within a society. The reason is that primary socialisation takes place in the emotional environment of a family and children live in microcosms defined by their parents, microcosms to which there is no alternative. It is interesting to find out whether this process also affects the area of sport. The aim of this study is to examine the influence of primary socialisation on the choice of football as the ultimate sport of choice by players of Poland’s best first-league football team in the 2012/13 season. Material and methods. The study involved a survey conducted between April st1 and 30th, 2013, on a purposive sample of N = 25 football players of the first-league Legia Warsaw football club.
