This study examined the social media interactions between online stakeholders and the Youth Olympic Games (YOG) and the Olympic Games (OG). The investigation observed what type of users exist as network members within the organisations’ social networks (i.e., Twitter), analysed the network structures as they relate to the users engaged with the organisations, and mapped the network members and their online relationships to reveal how the network formations facilitate the social media interactions. Python was used to mine the data and create adjacency metrics and UCINET 6.627 and NetDraw were utilised for analytical procedures and visual representations of the networks. Key findings revealed that for the YOG there has been an evolution with regard to the structure and complexity of the network and that national sport organisations made up one of the key stakeholders for the YOG in comparison to other key stakeholders (e.g., media, Olympians, celebrities) for the OG.

The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of mobile marketing (photo, video, and short message service, SMS or text messaging) in promoting one of the best Iranian football clubs, Persepolis, fans' behaviour in the 2018-2019 season. We collected data on the attitudinal loyalty, behavioural loyalty, and mobile marketing use of the fans attending a home game. We utilised structural equation modelling (SEM) to analyse the data. The findings indicate that mobile marketing has a positive effect on fans' attitudinal and behavioural loyalties. Also, attitudinal loyalty has a positive impact on the behavioural loyalty of the Iran Persepolis Football Club fans. We recommend that the managers of the Pro League clubs such as Persepolis prepare the infrastructure for the implementation of fan supporting systems for their organisations. Furthermore, they should employ media experts and professionals to enhance the relationship between their brand, customers, and delivery of information. This is among the first mobile marketing studies about football fans behaviour in the Middle East.

The alternative to a strategy based on unique and large-scale events is the joint use of small-scale events. In this way, the portfolio of events is shown as a new phenomenon that allows for tourism and economic development strategies in cities. This paper analyses the spending profile of attendees to three sporting events that are part of a portfolio. Differences in the expenditure behaviour of attendees are identified by event category. The results are used to analyse the event selection strategy of the portfolios and the development of strategic leveraging.

Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California is an example of a private financing / public ownership arrangement. While the stadiumi?½s construction resulted in no direct tax increases, this ownership arrangement allows the San Francisco 49ers to avoid many types of taxes on the income generated from Levii?½s Stadium. We estimate the total tax savings to the 49ers at between $106 and $213 million over the first 20 years of Levii?½s Stadium compared with a privately financed and owned option. We argue that tax savings inherent in private financing / public ownership arrangements represent indirect and hidden subsidies.
