Conceptual arguments for and descriptive research exploring sport social work continues to evolve, particularly within the last decade. Due to these advocacy efforts, sport social work has become acknowledged throughout the social work profession and within a variety of sport systems. However, empirical research of social work interventions and practices within sport remains sparce. This special issue of the Sport Social Work Journal seeks submissions of rigorous quantitative, qualitative, and multi-/mixed-methods research.
