The central question in this book is how values and norms manifest themselves in sport and what societal meanings they have. Contributors examine: how can the notion of value be considered in the context of sport; how should sports organisations deal with differences in motivation and expectations among different groups of sports participants; what norms and values should clubs and sports uphold to attract and keep youth members; which values and norms are sports policies based on and which social influences can be observed.
