Call for Book Chapters | A Critical Perspective on Parents and Under-Fives Pre-School Sport and Physical Activity | Abstract submission deadline July 14, 2023
This book will provide a socio-cultural lens on the expanding market for pre-school sport and physical activity. This text comes at a significant time in the context of a growing marketplace for commercialised and franchised sport and PA in the UK and elsewhere for the under-fives. To date much of this research has focused on the development of children or on physiological measures of childhood activity. This ignores the social and cultural context in which children take part in Sport and PA.
Call for Papers | “Sport and parenthood”, Special Issue of Sport in Society | Call ends May 1, 2023
Children and youth sport involve many adult actors, not least family members. Parents and guardians are involved in children and youth sport both at amateur and elite level, as coaches, instructors, referees, and audiences. The aim of this special issue is to examine the intersection of parenthood and sport from several theoretical perspectives, geographical areas and methodologies. We welcome submissions from various research themes regarding parenthood and sport.
