  • Football, Nationalism and the Chants of Palestinian Resistance in Jordan
    “Allah! Wehdat! Al-Quds Arabiya!”: Football, Nationalism and the chants of Palestinian Resistance in Jordan by Joshua MacKenzie B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2010 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Joshua MacKenzie 2015 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Fall 2015 Approval Name: Joshua MacKenzie Degree: Master of Arts (History) Title: “Allah! Wehdat! Al-Quds Arabiya!”: Football, Nationalism and the Chants of Palestinian Resistance in Jordan Examining Committee: Chair: Mary-Ellen Kelm Associate Professor Paul Sedra Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Thomas Kuehn Supervisor Associate Professor Derryl MacLean Supervisor Associate Professor Adel Iskandar External Examiner Assistant Professor School of Communication Simon Fraser University Date Defended/Approved: November 27, 2015 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract After the Jordanian Civil War in 1970—which saw the Jordanian army defeat Palestinian guerrillas, the death of thousands of Palestinians living in Jordan and the exile of Palestinian political organizations and leaders from refugee camps—Palestinians in Jordan became politically and socially marginalized. Despite these marginalizations, Palestinians in Jordan always had access to sport. This thesis will examine how the football club, al-Wehdat, plays a role in creating and establishing identity and nationalism for Palestinians in Jordan. By using oral history, I move beyond the narrative of a homogenous Palestinian identity and demonstrate the complexities of Palestinian identities. Moreover, utilizing oral history in my thesis challenges the notion of football being cathartic, and demonstrates how al-Wehdat fans are able to: A) manoeuvre within the stadium, despite being under constant surveillance, B) to continue to use al-Wehdat as a political platform, predominantly through their chants, and C) to develop Palestinian identity and nationalism in Jordan.

  • Goa, April 6Th, 2017
    COMPENDIUM OF PROCEEDINGS Conference #7, Panaji, Goa, April 6th, 2017 National Conference Series on Sports for Employment Conference 7: Panaji, Goa on April 6th 2017 Participants Profile: Sports academies and clubs, schools, coaches, adventure sports practitioners and operators and representatives from the government. Organisers: SPEFL-SC, Tanjun NAUKRIS Consortium, Don Bosco College, Panjim, Goa. Venue: Auditorium, Don Bosco College Background The sport industry today is not only exciting but it is a lucrative and continually growing segment of the entertainment, arts, and recreation industry. As a global industry that attracts passionate fans, spectators and players throughout the world, sports have an enormous impact on people’s lives through education, diplomacy, personal achievement, business and overall entertainment. It is estimated that the sports industry globally generates between $400 and $425 billion in revenue annually. Many more billions are generated through related industries such as hospitality, event management, and fitness/recreation. Segments of the sports industry offer additional avenues for varying career paths. For example, sports marketing might include a number of areas from product placement, celebrity endorsement, sponsorship sales, merchandising, corporate relations, sales activation, and a host of other activities. Numerous opportunities and resources exist in both the public and private sector for anyone looking to break into this dynamic field. In the Indian context, it may already be apparent that India is moving out of the shadows and beginning to take noticeable steps into the sports arena. However there is an absence of support system in sports i.e. right kind of coaches, academy, event managers, sports goods manufacturers, infrastructure managers and developers, administrators, sports scientist, physiotherapists, sponsorship experts and so on.

    FOUND IN TRANSLATION FOUND IN TRANSLATIONPHOTOGRAPHED BY MANISH SAMPAT Could it be that the hopes of Indian football rest on the shoulders of its foreign players? Vivek Menezes investigates N A FREEZING March morning in the Fergana Valley in eastern Uzbekistan, the champion team of Neftchi Football Club boarded a plane to Tashkent, then connected on another long flight to New Delhi, Ofollowed by a final hop to Goa. Less than 24 hours after arriving into the Indian heat, coach Yuri Sarkisyan led his players on to the floodlit pitch at Fatorda Stadium outside Margao, to play against Salgaocar Sports Club in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Cup. One of the storied teams of Indian football, Salgaocar had recently achieved impressive results under the guid- ance of its excitable Moroccan coach, Karim Bencherifa. Last year, they won the national I-League. But the AFC Cup presented another level of competition, against proven winners from 14 different countries: an Indian team had yet to win a single match in the Cup. As the teams warmed up, I observed an unmistakable air of res- ignation amid the crowd. The Goan fans clearly expected a drubbing. The early minutes of the game did nothing to change that expectation: thick-legged Uzbek defenders walled off their territory, and the deft Neftchi mid-field dominated possession easily. In the 25th minute, Atabek Isroilov headed home the game’s first goal, and triumphant Rus- sian cheers rang through the night air. But standing at the sidelines, I noticed the Indian team exchanging purpose- ful nods. Later, after the game, Salgaocar’s attacking mid- fielder Ryuji Sueoka would tell me that it was a moment of mutual understanding.

  • Goa: Best Leisure and Recreation Destination in India Received: 10-07-2019 Accepted: 12-12-2019 Kurma Sankara Rao Dr
    International Journal of Tourism and Hotel Management 2020; 2(1): 28-31 E-ISSN: 2706-9591 P-ISSN: 2706-9583 IJTHM 2020; 2(1): 28-31 Goa: Best leisure and recreation destination in India Received: 10-07-2019 Accepted: 12-12-2019 Kurma Sankara Rao Dr. Pramod Kumar Singh Research Scholar, Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur, Abstract Andhra Pradesh, India. Goa has emerged as the most favoured tourist destination in the country, both for domestic as well as foreign tourists. Goa is a tiny State on the Western Coast of India amply bestowed with natural beauty, lovely beaches along with its 105 Kilometers coast line segregated into various beach stretches, eco- friendly atmosphere, lush green hills, world heritage monuments, churches, temples and above all friendly hospitable people. Tourism is a major activity in Goa having direct and indirect impact on all other sectors of the economy. Tourism has contributed substantially to the economic development of the State by way of foreign exchange earnings, employment generation, infra-sectoral competition and it has also improved the living standard of people. In this research article I explained Importance of tourism in Goa, Geography and Climate, Best beaches, Water Sports, Casinos, Food, Drinks, Hotels, Guest houses, etc. Keywords: Geography, Beaches, Water Sports, Casinos, Food and Drinks 1. Introduction Goa is a state on the southwestern coast of India within the region known as the Konkan, and geographically separated from the Deccan highlands by the Western Ghats It is surrounded by the Indian states of Maharashtra to the north and Karnataka to the east and south, with the Arabian Sea forming its western coast.

  • The Catholic Church and Football in Goa, 1883-1951 James Mills University of Strathclyde Glasgow, Scotland
    Colonialism, Christians and Sport: The Catholic Church and Football in Goa, 1883-1951 James Mills University of Strathclyde Glasgow, Scotland Abstract The chapter uses the development of football in Goa, the Portuguese colony in India until 1961, as a case study with which to critique existing histories of sport and colonialism. The start point of the article is that when taken together existing studies of football in particular, and to an extent sport in general, in colonial contexts bear a range of similarities. Broadly speaking a model can be drawn from them, one in which Christian missionary activity and colonial government projects act to introduce and encourage western sports among colonised populations who then eventually adopt and adapt the games. The Goa example offers a fresh perspective as it argues that while elements of the story of football there are familiar from these other studies, the role of indigenous agents in propagating the game at its earliest stages is crucial to understanding how the sport took off and became embedded in local society and culture. Introduction A range of studies of sport in colonial contexts that have been published over the last decade or so point to the importance of Christian missionaries in introducing modern games and sporting activities to non-western societies. J.A. Mangan’s oft-repeated publications on the mission schools in India are perhaps the best known of those that have examined the role of Western Christians in colonial contexts. In his most recent examination of the issue he returned to the examples of Theodore Leighton Pennell and Cecil Earle Tyndale-Biscoe in the North West Frontier Provinces and Kashmir respectively.1 The North West Frontier region had a pre-existing indigenous interest in physical preparation for martial pursuits that manifested in displays of ‘tent- pegging’.
