Surviving the Lights: A Professional Athlete's Playbook to Avoiding the Curse
by Smith, Tywanna       
(Paperback - English - 9781944177652)
It's more than a game; It's more than money; It's your life This book will help aspiring professional athletes and their families avoid the curse that, oftentimes, comes with the professional sports culture.

by Kanosue, Kazuyuki    Kogiso, Kohei    Oshimi, Daichi
(Paperback - English - 9784431561606)
This book focuses on (1) sports management, (2) sports economics and policy, and (3) sports humanities. The fact that sports humanities is a part of the sports management education program means that a person with extensive knowledge--not only business-related comprehension but also acquaintance with art-related fields, such as the humanities and law--will play a central role in sports management in the next generation. The former two parts aim to provide a clear understanding of sports management and marketing, including the motivational and or emotional components of fan behavior and sports participation, sports club management, sports sponsorship, athlete re ..

The Way of the Athlete: The Role of Sports in Building Character for Academic, Business, and Personal Success
by Pate, Rob    Reynolds, Ben   
(MP3 CD - English - 9781531874360)
There comes a time in every competitive athlete's life when the cheering stops, and it's time to move on to other pursuits. Written by a former Division 1 football player and Academic All-American, The Way of the Athlete argues that sports prepares athletes for this transition by instilling qualities that contribute to academic, business, and personal success. Rob Pate draws on his own experience, together with the experiences of coaches and other athletes, to highlight the parallels between athletic achievement and attainment in other areas of life. The author looks beyond the time-honored qualities of discipline, dedication, teamwork, sportsmanship, and lead ..

Agile Sports: A Blueprint for Measuring Value, Improving Player IQ and Creating Team Synergy
by Holman, Victor       
(Paperback - English - 9781978146785)
Sports are advancing at a lightning pace. Data is available on a scale never before seen. The popularity of sports continues to rise and salary caps are at an all-time high. With change being a constant, teams that surface to the top are the teams that are able to absorb the information coming in, translate it to meaningful information, make quick, informed decisions and yield constant, quantifiable improvements. And with salaries skyrocketing through the roof, more and more teams are finding themselves with big contracts and little returns to show for it. Over the next few years, the organizations that are able to architect rosters with players who can learn ho ..

Without a solid game-plan or direction, Student Athletes often miss out on opportunities to play at the next level.

This book is "The Blueprint" for navigating the recruiting process.

Managing Drugs in Sport
by Mazanov, Jason       
(Paperback - English - 9781138595187)
As recent high-profile drugs scandals have demonstrated, sport organisations rarely have a coherent, meaningful, long-term management strategy regarding drug use and abuse. Typically, sport managers hope drug problems never happen and engage in damage control when they do. This important new book argues that drugs in sport must be seen as a legitimate management issue; that the reality is that athletes will use and misuse drugs, and that sport managers require a sophisticated understanding of this issue to enable them to develop effective strategies and responses. Drawing on cutting-edge management theory, the book explores the characteristics of drugs in sport ..

Cap in Hand: How Salary Caps Are Killing Pro Sports and Why the Free Market Could Save Them
by Dowbiggin, Bruce    Gauthier, Ryan   
(Hardcover - English - 9781770413931)
Iconic baseball writer Bill James, in 1987, frustrated with MLB's labor stoppages and the decline of the minor leagues, wrote that the minors "were an abomination ... if you're selling a sport and the players don't care about winning, that's not a sport. That's a fraud ... an exhibition masquerading as a contest." Bill imagined a better model and proposed that, as opposed to limiting the number of teams in MLB to protect parity, a free market was capable of sustaining many more franchises -- hundreds, even -- if we would just allow it to sort out the level at which those cities might best compete. Cap in Hand goes a step further, arguing that a free market in sp ..

Football in Neo-Liberal Times: A Marxist Perspective on the European Football Industry
by Kennedy, Peter    Kennedy, David   
(Paperback - English - 9781138308633)
This book offers an original Marxist critique of the European football business. It argues that the Marxist account of the difference between profits and surplus value is crucial to an understanding of the fluid and contradictory nature of the commodification of football. Section one analyses the nature of modern professional football and section two highlights attempts, via government agency and football clubs, to corral fans into ever greater identification with business logic aimed at breaking traditional social relations. Section three draws on a number of cases studies across Europe, to analyse how some fans are attempting to mount a counter ideological res ..
