In modern competitive sport, athletic success is posited as a result of more than simply being physically fit (Johns and Johns, 2000; Romana, 2010). Rather, understandings of the ‘best’ way to physically prepare as an athlete, underpinned by bio-scientific discourses of performance that emphasize rationalistic concepts of productivity, efficiency and conformity, have come to attribute certain meanings to athletes’ preparation, including that they must comply with strict training regimes and controlled lifestyles to achieve success (Lang, 2010; Potrac et al., 2000). Within this, ensuring ‘appropriate’ nutritional intake is considered crucial. However, knowledge of coaches’ discourses in relation to athlete development and how they enact this in their practice is under-researched (Jones, Glintmeyer and McKenzie, 2005), particularly in relation to coaches’ work with child athletes and coaches’ understandings and enacting of discourses of athlete nutrition. This paper aims to shed light on the discourses coaches draw on in relation to athlete nutrition and how they enact these in their practice to inform and enhance youth coaching practice. It reports the findings from an ethnographic study into coaches’ understandings of good practice when working with competitive youth swimmers. The study comprised an ethnography of three competitive youth swimming clubs at different levels of the performance spectrum. One key finding was that coaches considered it good practice to educate youth athletes about what they referred to as ‘good’ or ‘optimal’ nutrition and consequently, particularly among coaches at the elite level, they enforced strict dietary rules to achieve this. The consequences of such practices are discussed in relation to the health and wellbeing of (child) athletes.
在现代竞技体育中，运动员的成功被认为不仅仅是身体健康的结果(Johns and Johns, 2000;和平,2010)。相反，在强调生产力、效率和一致性等理性概念的表现的生物科学话语的支持下，对运动员身体准备的“最佳”方式的理解，已经开始赋予运动员准备一定的意义，包括他们必须遵守严格的训练制度和控制的生活方式才能取得成功(Lang, 2010;Potrac et al.， 2000)。在这种情况下，确保“适当”的营养摄入被认为是至关重要的。然而，关于教练与运动员发展的话语以及他们如何在实践中实施这些话语的知识还没有得到充分的研究(Jones, Glintmeyer和McKenzie, 2005)，特别是关于教练与儿童运动员的工作以及教练对运动员营养话语的理解和实施。本文旨在阐明教练在运动员营养方面所借鉴的话语，以及他们如何在实践中制定这些话语，以告知和加强青年教练实践。它报告了一项民族志研究的结果，研究了教练在与竞技青年游泳运动员一起工作时对良好实践的理解。本研究包括三个竞技青年游泳俱乐部在不同水平的表现谱人种志。一个重要的发现是，教练们认为教育年轻运动员他们所谓的“好”或“最佳”营养是一种很好的做法，因此，特别是在精英水平的教练中，他们执行严格的饮食规则来实现这一目标。讨论了这种做法的后果与(儿童)运动员的健康和福祉有关。

Despite women participating in a variety of sports at an international level, the Australian sports media is dominated by male commentators, male identified sports, and male athletes. Much of the sports reporting in Australia surround high profile male team sports such as rugby league (NRL), cricket, and Australian Rules football (AFL). Women sports do not generally feature heavily in sports coverage in neither print nor broadcast mediums. However, every four years the Olympic Games change this culture somewhat. Over the period of the Olympic Games, during the lead up to the Games and in the weeks post-Games, women athletes can be found in the sports pages. During this period, Australian women athletes are celebrated and awarded space in newspaper coverage, particularly if their athletic performance brings success to the country. This ongoing longitudinal study documents the prevalence of female sports stories in two state (New South Wales) and one national newspaper in Australia, “The Sydney Morning Herald,” “The Daily Telegraph,” and “The Australian,” between 2008 and 2012. In the broader study, newspapers were analyzed for two weeks prior to the Olympics beginning, during the Olympics, and two weeks after the Olympics were completed. However in the current paper, a small slice of this research between 2008-2012 will be analyzed in relation to gender (male, female, or a combination of male and female athletes), the articles relationship to the Olympic Games, and the general content of sports news articles. The content and language used in the newspaper articles are examined using a critical feminist perspective and such a perspective will investigate the ways that women are often ‘feminized’, ‘gender marked’, ‘infantilized’, and ‘heterosexualized’ in the sports media during both Olympic and non-Olympic years.

This paper reports on research that examined the social media policies adopted by Australian sporting bodies. All sporting groups are increasingly using social media channels to promote their activities and engage with their constituency. Part of this change in communication mode has resulted in a small but growing number of sporting bodies adopting some form of policy that provides a guide for members, coaches, athletes, parents, and even sponsors. Using thematic analysis of seventeen Australian sporting organisation policies, distinct policy themes were identified. These themes reflected directives on appropriate interaction, the posting of content and how breaches of policy might be addressed. Given the importance of how policy can direct behaviour, the paper contributes to a greater understanding of some of the core social media themes that are being encountered and implemented by sports bodies

The purpose of this paper is to explore a community swimming program using autoethnography qualitative research. Autoethnography is an approach to research and writing that seeks to describe and systematically analyze (graphy) personal experience (auto) in order to understand cultural experience (ethno) (Ellis 2004; Holman Jones 2005). Through childhood reflection of lived swimming experiences, and adult life reflection of lived swimming teaching experiences as a primary school teacher, health and physical education (HPE) specialist teacher and teacher educator, the author, illustrates how aquatic practices and education has shaped his belief, and consequently his drive to initiate a community swimming program. Furthermore, through this illustration, the reader is invited to enter the world of the author as a program pioneer, and share examination of dynamics involved in initiating opportunities for collaboratively developing swimming ability and confidence in primary school children, pre-service teachers and classroom teachers. More specifically, this involves critical analysis of course preparation, participant benefits and barriers during a collaborative swimming education process within Australian society.

The extent to which events are sustainable is an issue of considerable importance (Andersson, and Getz, 2008). While it may be that many do not adopt a marketing orientation (Mayfield & Crompton, 1995; Lade & Jackson, 2004; Mehmetoglu & Ellingsen, 2005) due to their more socialistic not-for profit nature there are still other factors that need to be addressed as sustainability will often depend upon the political and tangible support of key stakeholders (Andersson, and Getz, 2008). Using stakeholder theory and commitment-trust theory as applied to the events marketplace and taking a case study approach, this paper critically evaluates a major international motor sports event and the factors leading up to its demise along with its social, organisational, and political ramifications.
事件可持续性的程度是一个相当重要的问题(Andersson, and Getz, 2008)。虽然可能是许多人不采用营销导向(Mayfield & Crompton, 1995;Lade & Jackson, 2004;Mehmetoglu & Ellingsen, 2005)由于其更具社会主义的非营利性性质，还有其他因素需要解决，因为可持续性往往取决于关键利益相关者的政治和有形支持(Andersson, and Getz, 2008)。将利益相关者理论和承诺-信任理论应用于赛事市场，并采用案例研究方法，本文批判性地评估了一个主要的国际赛车赛事，以及导致其消亡的因素，以及其社会、组织和政治后果。
