  • Athletes As Tourists: Consumer Behaviour of Participants at the 2007 and 2009 World Universiade Games
    PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT. STUDIES AND RESEARCH DOI: 10.2478/v10141-011-0007-7 Athletes as Tourists: Consumer Behaviour of Participants at the 2007 and 2009 World Universiade Games Douglas Michele Turco 1, Dimitra Papadimitrou 2, Serkan Berber 3 1 Drexel University, Philadelphia, USA 2 University of Patras, Rio, Greece 3 Anadalu University, Eskişehir, Turkey ABSTRACT Considerable research has been devoted to sport mega-events including the Olympic Games, the FIFA World Cup, and the Commonwealth Games. Yet few studies have focused on the lesser known or “second tier” international sport events in order to understand the patterns and the impact of participant consumption. Further, few sport event studies are extended beyond a single assessment. This study examines a recurring sport event, the World Universiade Summer Games, that took place in two different countries, Belgrade, Serbia and Bangkok, Thailand. A profile of participants at the 2007 and 2009 Universiades was generated to reveal and compare their consumer behaviour in the host cities and over time. Subjects were queried on-site during selected days of competition (N=441, 2007; N=221, 2009). Findings demonstrate a remarkable consistency in participant characteristics and local spend from 2007 to 2009, though the amount spent per night was considerably less than the average per night spend by other types of tourists in the host countries, suggesting that Universiade athletes are non high-value tourists. Discussion and implications of findings to sport and tourism destination scholars and marketers are presented. KEYWORDS sport tourism, mega-events, World Universiade Games Introduction The summer Olympic Games and the FIFA Men’s World Cup are the two largest sport mega- events on the planet in terms of media audience, production costs, impact, etc.; all other events pale in comparison.

In 1986 the effort became focused when the International Olympic Committee recognized squash and the World Squash Federation applied for inclusion in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Campaigns have occurred ever since, in particular for the Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Rio 2016, as well as for the next three upcoming Summer Games. SThe push for the Olympics, however, often overshadows squash’s inclusion in numerous other international multi-sport events, some that you might know well and others slightly more obscure. Squash will be featured this month in the quadrennial Pan Ameri- can Games in Lima, and also the Pacific Games in Samoa and the Island Games in Gibraltar. Later this year, there is the African Games in Morocco in August, and the Southeast Asian Games in Philippines and the South Asian Games in Nepal in December. Many thousands of squash players, from top PSA professionals to amateurs of all ages, play in these games, building friendships and adding to their home nation’s medal count. The exposure of squash to wider audiences is tremendous, with media attention in the host and participating nations. The facilities that get built are fabulous legacies, particularly for host cities that are slightly off the beaten squash track—for example, the courts in Cartagena that were built for the 2006 Central PHOTO: © R.

  • Winter Games Athlete Stories
    SpecialOlympics.org 2017 World Games Athlete Stories More than 2,700 athletes from 107 countries will compete at the 2017 Special Olympics World Winter Games in Austria. Here are just a few of their stories, covering the seven Special Olympics regions around the world. AFRICA DIABATE HADIDIAH, COTE D’IVOIRE, FLOORBALL Diabate loves a challenge. That’s how she became of the few female judo athletes in Special Olympics Cote d’Ivoire – and one of the best. Now she is ready to lead Cote d'Ivoire's mostly female floorball team to their first World Games competition. Diabate used to attend a special education school, but her parents can no longer afford to send her. So these days, she’s learning all she can through her Special Olympics training, including communication and socialization skills. Her strength and stamina have surprised everyone, which is why her coach encouraged her to try the fast-paced team sport of floorball. Through sports, Diabate says she’s found new skills and confidence, plus she’s learned to communicate, cooperate and strategize with teammates. She’s also gained more physical strength racing up and down the field. The Cote d’Ivoire traditional floorball team has been training together for a year. The teammates are ready to take on Team Germany in their floorball first match-up in Austria. Diabate says, "My biggest dream is to return back home with the gold medal." 2 Special Olympics TEAM KENYA, FLOOR HOCKEY Kenya's only competitors in the 2017 World Games know the odds are stacked against them.

  • Report of Asia AGM 2013
    Report of Asia Keiji UKAI First of all, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all WDSF members and WDSF officials for your great support to promote DanceSport also in Asia. DanceSport in Asia has been getting remarkable growth for these 18 years since the recognition of IDSF by IOC in 1995. Following the demonstration at Bangkok Asian Games 1998,DanceSport was invited as a program sport into the 2005 Macau East Asian Games, the 2005 Philippines South East Asian Games, the 2005 Thailand Asian Indoor Games, the 2007 Thailand South East Asian Games, the 2007 Macau Asian Indoor Games, the 2009 Vietnam Asian Indoor Games, the 2009 Hong Kong East Asian Games and the 2010 .Guangzhou Asian Games. WDSF Championships and Cups, Grand SLAM series and Grand SLAM Finals, of course, many WDSF ranking competitions have been organizing. The World Games was held twice in 2001 Akita and 2009 Kaohsiung. In this year, 2013, It has been allowed DanceSport to be included into the 2013 Tianjin East Asian Games and the 2013 Incheon Asian Indoor & Martial Arts Games. On the other hand, we have 20 national members within 45 NOCs in Asia. We have two members in the West Asia and two members in the South Asia. Therefore we have to work to promote DanceSport in those regions, together with DanceSport promotion in DanceSport young nations. We can see many young DanceSport getting great growth especially in Thailand, Hong Kong, China, Vietnam, Philippines, Chinese Taipei, Korea, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Japan and Macau. However, it will be one of obstacles for NOCs to support DanceSport for the Olympics that DanceSport is too noisy organization for some NOCs.
