    THE ATTITUDES AND PERCEPTIONS OF USERS ON INDOOR FOOTBALL FACILITIES AND CONTINIOUS TRAINING PLACES: Case, Jyväskylä, FINLAND Gökhan Ates Bachelor’s Thesis May 2014 Degree Programme in Facility Management School of Business and Services Management DESCRIPTION Author(s) Type of publication Date Gökhan Ates Bachelor´s Thesis 12.05.2014 Pages Language 59 English Permission for web publication ( X ) Title THE ATTITUDES AND PERCEPTIONS OF USERS ON INDOOR FOOTBALL FACILITIES AND CONTINIOUS TRAINING PLACES: Case Jyväskylä, FINLAND Degree Programme in Facility Management Tutor(s) Simon Kay-Jones Assigned by Abstract The objective of the research was to find out the attitudes and perception of users on how to adopt Finnish football facilities to permanent training places for players to increase the quality of Finnish football. It is known that football is not the number one sport in Finland because of long winter break that makes it challenging for football to play on the outside pitches. The goal was to find out football players’ and experts` perspective whether indoor football facilities could improve the quality of Finnish football or not. The findings might lead to football players being provided with indoor pitches. After that, the quality and ability of Finnish players could be improved, which could, eventually, have positive effects on national team. The study was based on qualitative research method. Thus, a survey questionnaire was sent to football players and interview with experts in order to gather reliable information. And, also different analysis methods such as `blueprints` and `service journeys` were used in the research process. Participants were Finnish and international people who are related to the central Finnish football industry.

  • Junior Football Club's Financing in Finland – Case: Mikkelin Kissat C-Juniors
    Janne Väre Junior Football Club's Financing in Finland – Case: Mikkelin Kissat C-Juniors University of Jyväskylä Department of Sport Sciences Master’s Thesis Sport Planning and Administration Spring 2008 UNIVERSITY OF JYVÄSKYLÄ Department of Sport Sciences / Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences VÄRE, JANNE Junior Football Club’s Financing in Finland – Case: Mikkelin Kissat C-Juniors ABSTRACT Master’s Thesis, 59 pages, 11 Appendices pages Sport Planning and Administration 2008 Football is the most popular sport among children and youth aged 3 – 18 years in Finland. A considerable proportion of Finnish children and youth also participate in the activities of football clubs. Financing a club has become a challenging task and several kinds of sources are needed. After the differentiation of sport in Finland, voluntary work has had a key role in sport club operation. This research focuses on financing a youth football club in Finland. The research is a case study concentrated on Mikkelin Kissat C-juniors (ages 14 - 15) team as an example. Mikkelin Kissat represents a typical Finnish football club with a major focus on junior operation. In general, it is a great example of how junior clubs operate in Finland and this makes the club a good target for this study. How a junior football club finance its operation and how does the club spend the income it gets are the main points studied. Another issue is to discuss about the idea of professionalizing voluntary work done in sport clubs. It has been speculated that sports clubs need more full-time workers to meet the increasing demand for quality of the operation of the clubs.

    THE CLASH AND MASS MEDIA MESSAGES FROM THE ONLY BAND THAT MATTERS Sean Xavier Ahern A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2012 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kristen Rudisill © 2012 Sean Xavier Ahern All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This thesis analyzes the music of the British punk rock band The Clash through the use of media imagery in popular music in an effort to inform listeners of contemporary news items. I propose to look at the punk rock band The Clash not solely as a first wave English punk rock band but rather as a “news-giving” group as presented during their interview on the Tom Snyder show in 1981. I argue that the band’s use of communication metaphors and imagery in their songs and album art helped to communicate with their audience in a way that their contemporaries were unable to. Broken down into four chapters, I look at each of the major releases by the band in chronological order as they progressed from a London punk band to a globally known popular rock act. Viewing The Clash as a “news giving” punk rock band that inundated their lyrics, music videos and live performances with communication images, The Clash used their position as a popular act to inform their audience, asking them to question their surroundings and “know your rights.” iv For Pat and Zach Ahern Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the help of many, many people.
