Numerous studies have investigated the influence of sponsors on the sport organizations with whom they partner. However, rather than simply assessing the impact of a new, incremental sponsor, which should result in a net positive for the sponsored organization, we quantify and isolate the effect of resources provided upon the switch of one sponsor to another. Furthermore, the resource-based view of the firm is utilized as a theoretical lens to understand the effects of these resources on demand, the ability to recruit human capital, and organizational performance. In Study 1, we analyze 15 years of data from 98 sponsorship agreements, finding that switches provide additional resources, but do not positively impact demand, recruiting, or performance, even in subsequent years. In Study 2, we find that the financial commitment necessary to acquire a sponsorship from a competitor does not result in a corresponding increase in shareholder value for the sponsoring firm.

Thirty-five years have passed since the first issue of the Journal of Sport Management (JSM) was published, and the literature in sport management, including the theory produced and applied, has advanced considerably over the years (Cunningham et al., 2021). Given this advancement, this special issue was structured differently, by design, from past special issues in the JSM. We asked for teams of scholars that were international, a mix of more established scholars and junior scholars, and scholars who possessed divergent views on a topic to engage multiple perspectives, all traits that point to a maturing field of study—such teams would be difficult to assemble in an undeveloped field of study. In structuring the special issue in this manner, we sought a collection of manuscripts that highlight and critique the state of the sport management literature for a range of different topics to extend conversation and provide guides to future research, research that may address more immediate questions as well as research that may move the study of a topic in entirely different directions.
自第一期《体育管理杂志》(JSM)出版以来,已经过去了35年,体育管理方面的文献,包括产生和应用的理论,在过去的几年里有了很大的进步(Cunningham et al., 2021)。考虑到这一进步,本期特刊的结构与JSM过去的特刊有所不同。我们要求学者组成的团队是国际性的,既有更成熟的学者,也有更年轻的学者,对一个主题有不同观点的学者,以参与多种观点,所有这些特征都指向一个成熟的研究领域——在一个不发达的研究领域,很难组建这样的团队。在以这种方式构建特刊的过程中,我们寻找了一组手稿,这些手稿突出和批评了一系列不同主题的体育管理文献的现状,以扩展对话并为未来的研究提供指导,这些研究可能会解决更直接的问题,也可能会将一个主题的研究转移到完全不同的方向。

Attention by sport management researchers and practitioners toward the societal externalities of professional sport franchises and venues has increased recently. This study asserts that while sport organizations are very active in this regard, there remain several issues that have not received much attention in the sport management literature nor by sport organizations themselves. Criminal activity, or the perception of criminal activity, at and near sport venues is one of these issues. The negative binominal regression analysis of police stops in Minneapolis revealed that police stops were greater within a quarter and half a mile of Minneapolis professional sport venues on event days. Furthermore, during nonevent days, the venues can be urban “dead spaces” and the design of venues in urban areas should address the internal and external amenities of the sport venues and the potential increase in crime and police-related activity on days with and without events.

The periodic examination of research agendas in sport management is necessary for the field’s advancement. In this mixed-method Delphi study, 15 leading sport management scholars forecast how the field can have a more influential voice in understanding the relationship between spectator sport and population health. Panelists agreed on the importance to not oversell or oversimplify the role of spectator sport; to improve interdisciplinary collaboration, theorization, and research design; to recognize opportunities to advance mental and social well-being; to better relate to stakeholders; and to identify distinctive health effects of spectator sport. A lack of consensus existed about the relationship between spectator sport and environmental well-being and prospects for leveraging spectator sport for participant sport. Drawing from these findings, the authors suggest that future research consider moving beyond simply measuring the effects of spectator sport on population health and, instead, assess its health effects relative to multiple forms of leisure and entertainment.

Coaches play a vital role in providing sports programs. Investing in formal coach education can serve to increase coaches’ human capital, which in turn, has a positive effect on their coaching practice. The present study investigates factors influencing coaches’ intention to get training for their coaching activity on an individual and organizational level. Nationwide online surveys were conducted in Germany on both nonprofit sports clubs and coaches being active within these clubs. Data were analyzed using multilevel regression analysis on a sample of n = 2,384 coaches in n = 1,274 clubs. Results show that especially the expiring validity of the coaching license, aspects of personal development, and low transaction costs are crucial factors for the intention to obtain a qualification. The results lead to several implications for theory and practice. Clubs could enhance the qualification intention and, thereby, the quality of sports programs by appointing a contact person who informs about qualification possibilities.

The aim of this study was to present a branding model of Iranian sportswear industry using data-based theory. The research method is qualitative with a systematic analysis approach. The statistical population included all senior managers of sports production companies, university professors in the field of sports management and marketing, and scientific documents and resources. A sufficient number of statistical samples based on theoretical saturation were purposefully selected and available. The research instruments included systematic library study and semi-structured interviews and the validity of the instrument was assessed using desirable qualitative validation methods (content validity). Coding and conceptual framing methods were used to analyze the findings. Conceptual framework of sportswear brand in Iran in 14 general areas including brand capability, brand characteristics, brand competitive advantage, brand love, market developments, economic weakness, sportswear branding, brand reconstruction, social media branding, brand creativity and innovation Is the rotation of the sports economy, promoting brand value, improving brand performance and brand loyalty. The framework presented in study creates an understanding of the dimensions of the sportswear brand based on its relationship with a set of different activities. Based on this framework, it is possible to make an objective assessment of the level of management activities in each sports production company and provide scientific information on the appropriate measures that sports organizations should take for branding.
