Leisure In The Life Of The 21st Century Black Church: Re-Thinking The Gift, Steven N. Waller Ph.D.

Major Studies and Reports

Scholarship devoted to examining the role that leisure plays in the life of the Black Church is lacking. Leisure is an important facet of congregational life in African American churches and permeates congregational dynamics on multiple levels. The purpose of this essay is to examine leisure in the life of the Black Church and posit how a healthy, theologically accurate understanding of the value of leisure can help with health and wellness promotion, community-economic development and church growth. The Black Church is defined as the eight historically Black denominations: African Methodist Episcopal, African Methodist Episcopal Zion, Christian Methodist Episcopal, Church …

The Influence Of The Bowl Championship Series On Competitive Balance In College Football, Stephen W. Dittmore, Craig M. Crow Jan 2010

The Influence Of The Bowl Championship Series On Competitive Balance In College Football, Stephen W. Dittmore, Craig M. Crow

Journal of Applied Sport Management

Competitive balance in sport has been identified as a predictor of demand for sporting events, and leagues. Conferences frequently seek to maximize outcome uncertainty as a means of increasing demand. While competitive balance was not initially a goal of the Bowl Championship Series (BCS), competitive balance in American college football has generally been regarded as improved since the implementation of the BCS. The present study confirms empirically that within-season competitive balance inside all six founding BCS conferences has improved since its creation. However, only three of the six conferences exhibited improved between-season competitive balance, meaning frequent turnover of championship teams …


Heroes And Villains: Increasing Fan Involvement In Pursuit Of “The Elusive Fan”, Thomas S. Mueller, John C. Sutherland Jan 2010

Heroes And Villains: Increasing Fan Involvement In Pursuit Of “The Elusive Fan”, Thomas S. Mueller, John C. Sutherland

Journal of Applied Sport Management

The sport consumption experience apparently facilitates a higher symbolic meaning, indicating a symbolic communicative role in the social psyche of consumers. Involvement with group members in the social (sport) setting appears to influence attendees’ self-concept. Despite a postmodern shift to individuality, Americans still choose to exist within the parameters of collective traditions and within communities of shared interests through the social institution of sport (Bellah, 1985). According to Rein et al. (2006), one of seven vital way sport properties can attract/retain such elusive fans involves heightening their attractions to the properties by emphasizing rivalries, which, in turn, increases fan involvement. …

Experiences In Youth Sports: A Comparison Between Players’ And Parents’ Perspectives, Keri A. Schwab, Mary Sara Wells, Skye Arthur-Banning Jan 2010

Experiences In Youth Sports: A Comparison Between Players’ And Parents’ Perspectives, Keri A. Schwab, Mary Sara Wells, Skye Arthur-Banning

Journal of Applied Sport Management

A key difficulty for administrators of youth sport programs is satisfying both parents (as those who make the final decision of participation) and players (as those for whom the program is designed). While both stakeholders have important viewpoints, the potential exists for stark differences between the two. This paper explores the differences between players’ and parents’ perspectives of a youth sport experience. Results suggest that players generally tend to think more positively than parents of the youth sport program, including areas such as skill development, teamwork development, character development, sportsmanship, and fun. Suggestions for practitioners on how to address these …
