    WHO’S ON THE PLAYING FIELD?: A JOURNALISTIC SERIES ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY IN SPORTS Brian Conlin A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication Chapel Hill 2010 Committee: Adviser: Walter Spearman Professor Jan Yopp Reader: John Thomas Kerr Jr. Distinguished Professor Richard Cole Reader: Professor Karla A. Henderson © 2010 Brian Conlin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT BRIAN CONLIN: Who’s on the Playing Field?: A Journalistic Series about Homosexuality in Sports (Under the direction of Jan Yopp, Dr. Richard Cole and Dr. Karla Henderson) The number of openly gay and lesbian athletes has boomed since the 1980s. The Gay Games is one example of this. The first Gay Games in 1982 had 1,300 participants. By 1994, the Gay Games drew 11,000 participants. In three articles, this master’s thesis examines various aspects of gays and lesbians in sports. The first article covers the Gay Games. It includes information about its supporters and protestors, a brief history and a look ahead to the upcoming Gay Games and beyond. The second article profiles a rugby player on the Carolina Kodiaks, one of two gay rugby teams in North Carolina. The third article examines how journalists, especially those in sports departments, cover LGBT issues.

Abstract Many members of the LGBT community have viewed the Gay Games as an opportunity to challenge dominant ideologies concerning sexuality and sport participation. Members of the mass media, however, play a potentially important role in how the event is perceived by the general public. Therefore, the primary purpose of the current study was to examine how the Gay Games have been framed in newspaper coverage. A total of 646 articles published in the United States covering the eight Gay Games events held during the 32-year period of 1980 to 2012 were analyzed in terms of three aspects of framing: (1) the types of issues highlighted, (2) the sources of information cited, and (3) the manner in which either episodic or thematic narratives were employed.

  • Accueillir Les Gay Games À Paris En 2018 : Du Projet Sportif Au Projet Urbain Structurant
    Accueillir les Gay Games à Paris en 2018 : du projet sportif au projet urbain structurant The Paris 2018 Gay Games: From a sports competition to a structuring urban project Antoine LE BLANC Université du Littoral Côte d’Opale Acoger en París los Gay Games en 2018: Laboratoire TVES EA 4477 [email protected] Del proyecto deportivo al proyecto urbano estructurante Résumé Paris a été choisie comme ville d’organisation des prochains Gay Games, tournoi organisé par les associations gaies et lesbiennes dans un but d’ouverture de la compétition sportive, à la fois similaire et décalé par rapport à l’esprit olympique. L’aspect associatif et les budgets plus faibles semblent impliquer un moindre impact sur l’aménagement urbain. Pourtant, par l’ampleur du nombre de participants, par la recherche d’ouverture et de visibilité, par la spécificité de l’accueil dans une grande capitale mondiale et par ses effets sur la spatialisation du genre et la norme urbaine, le projet Paris 2018 constitue bien un projet urbain important, voire un véritable projet de ville. Mots-clés Sport, associations, LGBT, Paris 2018, Gay Games, projet urbain. Abstract Paris was chosen to host the next Gay Games, a sports tournament organized by gay and lesbian associations in order to promote inclusion in sports competition. The Gay Games are similar to an Olympic Games organization, but quite different in spirit. The emphasis on cooperation and the smaller budgets seem to entail a lesser impact on the urban territory. However, the huge number of participants, the political claims, the specificity of Paris – a world class capital city – and the probable consequences on gender norms and visibility in the city, all contribute to make the Paris 2018 bid an actual urban project, indeed a veritable city project.

WANG, JIAYI, M.S., May 2016 Hospitality and Tourism Management UNDERSTANDING CLEVELAND AS A SPORTS DESTIONATION: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF BRAND PERSONALITY THEORY (76 pp.) Director of Thesis: Phillip Wang, PhD In this globalizing world, sporting events play an important role in improving the attractiveness and competitiveness of a city. Sports tourism and sporting events are viewed as a growing niche market. This is reflected by the contribution that sports tourism brings to a destination. As a consequence of sports being attractions or activities that tourists seek to experience in the destination, it is paramount for a destination to be able to offer them. Cleveland’s continuously increasing sports offering is making the city an appealing tourist destination to wider groups of tourists. Brand personality theory provides the theoretical support for the present study. The purpose of the study is to test the brand personality framework in the context of sports tourism, explore the brand personality of Cleveland as a sports destination, and apply the theory into destination marketing.

  • Transgressive Potential of Gay Games
    Event Management, Vol. 22, pp. 981–995 1525-9951/18 $60.00 + .00 Printed in the USA. All rights reserved. DOI: https://doi.org/10.3727/152599518X15346132863210 Copyright © 2018 Cognizant, LLC. E-ISSN 1943-4308 www.cognizantcommunication.com THE TRANSGRESSIVE POTENTIAL OF THE 2014 CLEVELAND/AKRON GAY GAMES LEGACIES NIGEL JARVIS School of Sport and Service Management, University of Brighton, Eastbourne, UK Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) sport events potentially represent a signifi- cant transgressive and alternative space in the world of sport. There has been a scarcity of research on the full range of legacies that these types of medium-sized events can have, as previous studies focus on larger mega-sport events like the Olympics and/or economic and infrastructural aspects. This study evaluates the potential sociopolitical and sport legacies of the 2014 Gay Games held in Cleveland/Akron, based on interviews with 29 key stakeholders and complemented with conversa- tions with 46 local residents. It demonstrates a range of positive sociopolitical and sport legacies were cited, although awareness of possible negative legacies and barriers also emerged. The discus- sions, centered on legacies, show the Games have symbolic significance for both the gay and wider community and accelerated the process of more accepting societal attitudes towards LGBTQ people. The conclusion discusses the somewhat qualified transgressive potential of the Games to challenge wider existing dominant heteronormative values in the local area. Key words: Gay Games; Sociopolitical and sport legacies; Event spectacles Introduction legacies that will be created, while negative ones are downplayed and may not emerge until later.

  • An Examination of the Motivations for Sponsorship of Gay Games IX
    Journal of Marketing Management June 2018, Vol. 6, No. 1, pp. 30-40 ISSN: 2333-6080(Print), 2333-6099(Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jmm.v6n1a3 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jmm.v6n1a3 An Examination of the Motivations for Sponsorship of Gay Games IX David Hack1 Abstract Sport sponsorship has evolved into a significant component of the sport marketing mix. While sport sponsorship has emerged as a substantial topic in the marketing and management literature, there is minimal research investigating the growth and prevalence of sponsorship for amateur based sporting events, particularly sporting events which attract predominantly lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered participants. Therefore, this exploratory case study set out to examine the motivations of the sponsors of the 2014 Gay Games, in an effort to understand why companies chose to affiliate with the LGBT amateur sporting mega- event. Site observations, document collection and analysis, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 sponsorship decision-makers representing 13 companies in order to investigate reasons which led organizations to enter into sponsorship agreements. Findings indicated that motivations for sponsorship included support for an event with aligned mission and values, a desire to support the northeast Ohio community, and a personal connection to the LGBT community. Keywords: Gay Games, motivations, sponsorship, case study 1. Introduction Sponsorship of sport properties has grown into a multi-billion-dollar component of business (IEG, 2017) and a necessary revenue stream for the sport and recreation industry (Stotlar, 2013). Mullen, Hardy, and Sutton (2000) define sponsorship as “the acquisition of rights to affiliate or directly associate with a product or event for the purpose of deriving benefits related to that affiliation or association” (p.
