Synopsis
This is the only book to introduce the history, organisation, management and development of sport in Australia. Now in a fully revised and updated sixth edition, it is the perfect foundation text for anybody looking to understand the policies, processes and practices that help maintain Australia’s position as a powerhouse of global sport. This book outlines trends in participation, the role of government and private organisations, different models of delivering sporting services and the benefits and drawbacks of increasing commercialisation. Covering sport at all levels, from community sport to elite level, including mega-events such as the Olympics and Commonwealth Games, this sixth edition includes three brand-new chapters, looking at the sport workforce, innovative delivery models and sustainable sport. This book also considers the Australian system in a global context, drawing comparisons with other sporting systems around the world. Every chapter offers useful features, such as review questions, case studies and practical examples. Sport Management in Australia is an essential text for any sport management, sport policy or sport development course. This book is accompanied by PowerPoint slides and exam questions for each chapter.
