Book excerpt: The sports industry had impressive global growth over the years, with factors from the introduction of e-sports and new streaming and viewing methods to sponsorships and digital media contributing to its rise. However, the COVID-19 pandemic brought upon a rapid change in this sector. Sports' seasons ended abruptly, people’s escape from reality suddenly vanished, their spending attitudes changed, live games and commercial flights were suspended, hotels were impossible to book, and consumers practically turned into prisoners within their own homes. No live sports matches were to follow on any media either, so specialized sports channels were forced to play old recordings rather than broadcasting new events. Even athletes themselves struggle to stay relevant and thus, try to utilize creative methods to enhance their brand value in these difficult times. With most of the sports leagues shut down during the pandemic, with a few exceptions which performed in empty venues, the restrictions diminished the sports experience compared to the pre-COVID-19 era and the impacts were widespread. Impacts and Implications for the Sports Industry in the Post-COVID-19 Era explores the changes that have been and will continue to be created by the unexpected disruptions that occurred as a result of the pandemic within the sports industry, fans consumption, and recreational habits. The chapters explore the status of sports after the pandemic, paths to recovery, and the future of sports, along with the many impacts and issues that have arisen due to changes in the industry necessitated by COVID-19. Covering important topics such as mental health, impacts on athletes and coaches, the market value for professional sports, consumer behavior during COVID-19, and the changes in marketing, tourism, and business, this book is ideally intended for sports managers, marketers, broadcasting agencies, media specialists, brand managers, fitness professionals, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students interested in the impacts on the sports industry and the outlook for sports in the post-COVID-19 era.

The book explores how managerial processes have evolved during the pandemic in areas as diverse as sports communication, youth sport, sports events, esports, sports tourism, and physical activity, in both professional and community settings. It considers the fundamental importance of technology as a tool of innovation, and considers how different stakeholder groups, from governing bodies to athletes to fans, have developed new pathways of engagement and what that might mean for the future development of the sport industry. This book is fascinating reading for any student, researcher, practitioner or policy maker looking to better understand this profound moment in the history of sport and society, and to anybody with an interest in key themes in sport business and management, such as innovation, crisis management or consumer behaviour.

Following a near total shutdown in the spring of 2020, the sports industry rose to an exceptional challenge with discipline and innovation. This helped health experts understand how the rest of the world could adapt to the crisis. Sports in the Pandemic Era shares case studies of sports organizations that quickly implemented major changes to respond to pandemic challenges. The text also shows long-term changes that will impact the industry as the world recovers. It concludes with an inspiring look at the achievements of many athletes who overcame adversity and set impressive new records.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on every aspect of our social, cultural, and commercial lives, including the world of sport. This book examines the ethical and philosophical dimensions of the intersection of COVID-19 and sport. The book goes beyond simple description of the impact of the pandemic on sport to offer normative judgments on how the sporting world responded to challenges posed by COVID-19, as well as philosophical speculation as to how COVID-19 will change our understanding and appreciation of sport in the long term. It examines the considerations that either influenced—or arguably should have influenced—decisions to continue or to resume the playing of organized sport in the midst of a pandemic. As a part of this analysis, a spotlight is shone on how sport intersected with political issues surrounding COVID-19. It also explores the configuration and meaning of sport in the COVID-19 era, touching on themes such as the nature of sport and its integrity and sport’s relationship to technology. Other themes include the changed nature of spectatorship, suffering in sport during pandemic times, and the impact of COVID-19 on the Olympic and Paralympic Games. A final chapter looks ahead and asks what sport might look like in a post-COVID world. This is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in the ethics and philosophy of sport, the sociology of sport, event studies, politics, or public health.

Book excerpt: In the edited collection Restart: Sport After the Covid-19 Time Out, practitioners and international scholars explore the “restart” of sport and fitness following the initial period of lockdowns during spring 2020. The chapters provide insight into the sport and fitness landscape following the initial wave of the pandemic. The book focuses on challenges for sport providers, consequences for sporting participants, and opportunities for new ways of practicing sports. It contributes contemporaneous data, analyses, and insights into the global sport landscape that has been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. This book presents a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives in a total of nineteen individual chapters, organized around five main themes. The first four chapters deal with the restart of sporting events in four countries. This section is followed by an assessment of the Olympic Movement’s challenges after its postponement of the 2020 Summer Olympic Games to 2021. Chapters in the next theme provide analyses of how national governments handled restarting sport and fitness in different geographical locations. Finally, the last three chapters look at the role of the media during the restart phase, both in reporting sport and with regards to innovations and the implementation of new technology in staging and broadcasting elite sport.

Book excerpt: March 12, 2020 was a catastrophic day for sports in the United States and in the world as fears of what the spread of coronavirus could do caused organizations, leagues, associations and their leaders to either cancel their seasons, their tournaments, their matches or their meets. In one series after another of minute by minute press releases, televised announcements, etc., the nation saw beloved sporting events that fans love to attend canceled for good or postponed. In the case of collegiate men's and women's basketball, many of those fans had already traveled to conference tournaments anticipating that by Saturday night, March 14, their teams would have won their way into the Big Dance as the NCAA Men's Tournament is affectionately called or the Women's Tournament. A game underway in the Big East Tournament at Madison Square Garden was called at halftime.But it wasn't just basketball going by the wayside. All collegiate spring sports under the guidance of the NCAA were canceled. Professional basketball, baseball, golf, tennis and soccer organizations made similar announcements. So did leaders in NASCAR, the NFL, XFL, NHL make similar postings. In one day of sorrow being heaped on lots of teams, their players, coaches and fans, sports disappeared from the American scene at least for a while. The economic impact of those decisions which are yet to be determined would be substantial . More importantly, the impact on the lives of participants in these various sports is going to be substantial. And the overall impact of coronavirus on it all was still sitting out there as the elephant not quite in the room yet, but threatening to charge in there wreaking more damage as it pushed its way in.It's rare that Texas is ever defined as a microcosm of anything, but in writing this book, I am using it as a microcosm of what went on in the United States and in the world on March 12, 2020. Virtually every sport affected by the responses to the emergence of COVID-19 is part of the Texas sporting scene. Virtually every age group from chartered Little League teams to golfers on the senior circuit and all in between have seen their way of doing, of living, of participating ripped asunder by the pronouncements of that day. They have been run over by a freight train, counted out by a TKO or sent home at halftime by the mercy rule of six man football. But in telling the stories of Texas athletes, coaches, fans, administrators, their sports impacted by this, it is easy to state that they have been RUN RULED and SWEPT BY THE CORONAVIRUS!!

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout most of written history, there has been a fascination for sports, from gladiator fights to the first Olympic Games, which has turned into a form of dependence worldwide. Today, a bevy of professional sports and a plethora of professional teams fill stadiums, television slots, and streaming sites. With every sport comes fans, and with every fan comes an assortment of reasons as to why they are fans of certain sports, teams or athletes. Most of these fans use sports as an escape from under-stimulation (i.e., boredom, apathy) as well as over-stimulation (i.e., stress and anxiety) in their daily lives (Wann, Allen & Rochelle, 2004). Some fans, especially those heavily dedicated to specific teams, may even consider their sport or team a religion of sorts (Price, 2005). What would a typical fan do if all sports were taken away from them quickly and without warning? How would fans react if their favorite team was suddenly unable to participate in playoffs or championship? That is exactly what happened in March of 2020 because of growing concern about COVID-19. This thesis explores how the average sports fans and fantasy sports fans spent their time quarantining without their beloved sports, and it examines how dependent the common fans are on sports and sports media before, during, and after being forced to remain at home without any new games or matches for months on end.

Book excerpt: “Olmsted opens a window into a psychologically compelling world of passion and purpose.” —Harvey Araton, author of Our Last Season: A Writer, a Fan, a Friendship Larry Olmsted’s writing and research have been called “eye-opening” (People), “impressive” (Publishers Weekly, starred review), and “enlightening” (Kirkus Reviews). Now, the New York Times and Washington Post bestselling author turns his expertise to a subject that has never been fully explored, delivering a highly entertaining game changer that uses brand-new research to show us why being a sports fan is good for us individually and is a force for positive change in society. Fans is a passionate reminder of how games, teams, and the communities dedicated to them are vital to our lives. Citing fascinating new studies on sports fandom, Larry Olmsted makes the case that the more you identify with a sports team, the better your social, psychological, and physical health is; the more meaningful your relationships are; and the more connected and happier you are. Fans maintain better cognitive processing as their gray matter ages; they have better language skills; and college students who follow sports have higher GPAs, better graduation rates, and higher incomes after graduating. And there’s more: On a societal level, sports help us heal after tragedies, providing community and hope when we need it most. Fans is the perfect gift for anyone who loves sports or anyone who loves someone who loves sports.

Book excerpt: This book takes a close look at how the sport industry has been impacted by the global Coronavirus pandemic, as entire seasons have been cut short, events have been cancelled, athletes have been infected, and sport studies programs have moved online. Crucially, the book also asks how the industry might move forward. With contributions from sport studies researchers across the world, the book offers commentaries, cases, and informed analysis across a wide range of topics and practical areas within sport business and management, from crisis communication and marketing to event management and finance. While Covid-19 will inevitably cast a long shadow over sport for years to come, and although the situation is fast-evolving and the future is uncertain, this book offers some important early perspectives and reflections that will inform debate and influence policy and practice. A timely addition to the body of knowledge regarding the pandemic, this is an important resource for researchers, students, practitioners, the media, policy-makers, and anybody who cares about the future of sport.
