Tag: CfP Conference

This conference aims to bring together scholars from around the world to present, discuss and exchange their ideas in all relevant aspects of sport. It will provide an effective interdisciplinary platform for academics, practitioners and independent scholars to share the most up-to-date research and innovations, as well as theoretical and practical challenges emerging in the exciting field of sports studies.

Abstracts are welcome on any area of philosophy of sport (broadly construed), including metaphysics, epistemology, aesthetics, and ethics, and from any theoretical approach, including analytic philosophy and critical theory. While IAPS recognizes, values, and encourages interdisciplinary approaches and methodologies, acceptance is contingent on the philosophical content of the project. Emerging scholars are encouraged to submit works in progress.

The World Congress of Performance Analysis of Sport, first held in Burton Manor, England in 1991, has a long history as an international, academic event. In 2021 the WCPAS will be celebrating its 30 year anniversary as a distinguished platform for both established academics and people of industry in the field of performance analysis. Over the course of four days, keynote speakers in both the field of performance analysis and computer science in sport will present their work at this Joint Congress.

After a more than challenging past year, the ASAC conference organizers pose the question “How can research in business and management help people and organizations in Canada and around the world to prepare themselves for a future that promises to be significantly different—and continue to experience significant differences—than previously imaginable?” The Tourism & Sport Management (TSM) stream encourages various submission opportunities.

The aim of the conference is to bring together academics and researchers of all areas of sports. Participants can present on sports topics within broad streams of research areas. Areas of interest include (but are not confined to): the Impacts of Olympic Games, Professional Sports, Sports Law, Sports Communication, Sports & Media, Sports & Society, Sport Psychology, Sports & Ethics, Sport Technology, Sports History.

The goal of the Congress is to bring together leading professionals and researchers in the field of exercise and sport sciences, in order to stimulate discussion on the latest innovations in these areas. The Congress will focus on a wide range of themes related to exercise and the sport sciences, including physical activity among children, adolescents and the elderly, competitive sport and coaching, sport management, sport nutrition, sport tourism, physical education, among others.

This conference will have an international focus and aims to bring together practitioners and academics from a range of disciplines to allow discussions and debates of issues surrounding women’s participation in sport, exercise and physical activity. There will be an emphasis on redressing the balance through both assessing impact and highlighting future implications for practice.

The aim of this midterm conference is to bring scholars, researchers, educators, students, professionals, and other groups interested in sports and physical activity to propose their works. The focus lays in the challenges that sociology of sports and physical activity have to face to understand the new complex scenarios, the main issues we have to face, the successes, the criticalities and the lessons learned, the new horizons of our understandings of the social and cultural landscapes.

While there is literature on the role of sport professionals (i.e. athletes, managers, club owners, sport scientists and psychologists, coaching staff etc.) in today’s sports industry, there seem to be less evidence in the existing literature on the significance and role of organizing/organization and professional ownership in sport, particularly in the Nordic region. This track invites theoretical and empirical studies, with several sub-topics in the field of sport management organization and ownership.

We invite a multidisciplinary audience. Those with expertise in philosophy, ethics, environmentalism, law, sport, recreation, leisure, and other fields are encouraged to participate with the understanding that the conference theme is focused on ethics and the interplay of sports and animals. Submissions are welcome from all academics, including graduate students and freelance writers.
