Sport Volunteering
Auteurs : Hoye Russell, Cuskelly Graham, Auld Chris, Kappelides Pam, Misener Katie
Volunteers are central to sport at all levels, from mega-events to grassroots clubs. Sport Volunteering is a definitive guide to the issues associated with managing volunteers in sport.
The book focuses on the psychology of the voluntary experience, the challenges inherent in managing a volunteer workforce for not-for-profit and other groups, and the development of volunteers. It provides a perspective on the roles of volunteers in the development and delivery of sport in a range of contexts ? events, clubs, associations and other non-profit groups ? and explores important contemporary issues such as sustainability, diversity and the management of risk.
This book is essential reading for anybody studying sport volunteering or managing volunteers in sport, and a valuable resource for students of sport development, sport management, sport business, sport events, sport administration, sport policy, community sport, sport facilities, sport operations, event management or sport coaching.
