Community sport organizations, regional governance, and sport policy implementation in Ontario, Canada
Within multi-level sport governance systems, community sport organizations (CSOs) can be understood as implementers of sport policy. In Canada, extensive research exists examining governance at the national level, and the managerial implications for clubs at the community level. However, there is a dearth of research on the role of governance/policy at the regional level. In this brief research report, we examine the role of CSOs as implementers …
Mapping Women's Community Sport Participation to Inform Sport Development Initiatives
Using a spatial analysis methodology, we analyzed sport participation through membership data of a Provincial Sport Organization (PSO) in Ontario, Canada. Specifically, our analysis brings attention to the participation of women and girls in Row Ontario and the urban and rural nature of the PSO's membership. This research was conducted in partnership with the PSO to provide insights into how contextual factors influence sport participation and ho…
Rural Sport Spectacles
Hockey occupies a prominent role in the folklore of rural Canada. In this paper, I discuss the role of hockey events in expressions of place-based rural cultures. I draw from fieldwork conducted in three separate communities to discuss the semiotic processes involved in these events and their relationship to myths of rurality. Informed by mythologies and the carnivalesque, I unpack the way these events are engaged in the social processes of their…
Theorizing Community for Sport Management Research and Practice
Community is a context for much research in sport, sport management, and sport policy, yet relatively few authors explicitly articulate the theoretical frameworks with which they interrogate the concept. In this paper, we draw from communitarian theory and politics in order to contribute to a robust discussion and conceptualization of community in and for sport management research and practice. We provide a synthesis of current sport management a…

Participatory action research (PAR) is characterised by processes of community partnership and respectful attempts to address and mitigate power relationships between researchers and those affected by research. Further, these approaches to research seek to not only understand social phenomena within communities but also to affect change or action in and with community members. However, PAR projects are diverse in their theoretical underpinnings a…
