A Comparison Of Youth Participation Motives In Organized Sports, Kirsty L. Carrihill

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations (1964–2006)

Youth participation in organized physical activity has increased by more than 5 million in the last decade (Smith & Smoll, 2002). Of the 48 million youth 8 to 16 years old in the United States, 20 million participated in organized sport (Gould & Petlichkoff, 1998; Seefeldt & Ewing, 1997; Smith & Smoll, 2002). Currently, the average age for youth to begin participating in organized sports in, or outside of, school is 11 years old (Klint & Weiss, 1986; Smith & Smoll, 2002). Although participation rates have increased, there are significant numbers of youth who drop out of sport. Over one-third …

Lodges, Resorts And State Park Systems, Daniel D. Mclean, Amy Hurd

Visions in Leisure and Business

State park lodge and resort systems are a small and important component of the travel and tourism industry. Over the last 30 years the state park lodge system has matured into a resort system centered in the central and east central part of the United States. Kentucky is the most intensive state resort system with 17 resorts and located in what is called State Resort Parks. Resort revenues, while a small portion of most state park revenues, accounted for $49 million in 2001. Resorts are managed in one of three ways: state management, local contract management, or contract management with …

Dale Earnhardt: Merchandizing Of A Nascar Icon, Kathleen Munger, David L. Groves

Visions in Leisure and Business

Dale Earnhardt's death provided an opportunity to examine the merchandiser phenomena in the sport of NASCAR racing. When Dale Earnhardt died, buyers and sellers were exchanging memorabilia at an unprecedented rate. The price of his memorabilia escalated significantly after his death. The purpose of this study was to examine the price fluctuation of selected memorabilia over a one year period. Results indicated that prices fluctuated dramatically, especially by type of merchandise and where the merchandise was sold. The prices stabilized and shifted dramatically based upon significant events.

An Amenity Assessment Model For Evaluating State Park Tourism Assets, James D. Bigley, Larry Mutter

Visions in Leisure and Business

Creative, quick and inexpensive assessment models based on sound methods that yield practical applications can be of great utility to the administrators of both public and private sector outdoor recreation resources in their decision-making tasks. This paper presents a case study on the development of a tourism amenity assessment model designed for application to state and regional parks and historic sites. The five-step process utilized in developing and applying the model is discussed. The findings yielded as a result of application of the model to state parks in southeastern Georgia (USA) are enumerated, and the recommendations made to Georgia Department …

Collecting Celebrity: The Meanings And Process Of Collecting Sports Memorabilia, Nancy E. Spencer, Jacquelyn Cuneen, Raymond Schneider

Visions in Leisure and Business

The sports memorabilia marketplace has experienced exponential growth since the advent of Internet auction sites such as eBay. While collectors were once constrained by local encounters with personal collectors, the Internet now facilitates buying and selling on an international scale. This study explores the phenomenon of collecting sports memorabilia as it has been transformed historically as well as more recently. Scholarly literature suggests that fascination with the famous may have begun in ancient Greece, although contemporary studies of celebrity examine a broader scope of subjects in addition to an odd array of items collected.

This study specifically addresses the following: …

Does Television Impact Attendance At Eastern Illinois University Sporting Events, Gregory N. Powers

Masters Theses

This study tested the relationship between Eastern Illinois University home football and basketball games on television and attendance at these events. Attendance during a ten-year period for both EIU football and basketball games was recorded and dates of these contests were researched to determine if the games were telecast. After categorizing the figures into eight groups, the four pairs were compared using a T-test. The study found televising EIU home football games had no significant impact on attendance at these contests. However, a significant difference was noted between EIU home basketball games televised and those not aired. Attendance actually increased …

A Content Analysis Of The Effects Of Media Framing Of Naming Rights On Corporate Sponsorship., Douglas Scott Lovell

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

This paper addresses the relationship between corporate sponsorship and naming rights concerning sporting venues. It is hypothesized that corporations are more positively framed in the media when granted naming rights of major sporting venues. The literature review establishes the history of corporate sponsorship (as related to sports), naming rights, reviews the effects of advertising, and cites examples of previous and current examples of this type of relationship. Manifest content analysis was utilized to examine media coverage in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette newspaper of articles concerning naming rights of Heinz Field and PNC Park. Results indicated more intense as well as …

Development, Implementation, And Evaluation Of A Strategic Planning Process For Flagler College, William T. Abare Jr

Abraham S. Fischler College of Education ETD Archive

The underlying problem for this project was that the planning process at Flagler College was more internally focused, did not take into account the external forces that could impact the institution, and did not address the strategic issues confronting the institution. The purpose of this project was to develop, implement, and evaluate a strategic planning process at Flagler.

There were five research questions. First, “What are the different approaches to strategic planning, including general principles that should guide the development and implementation of the planning process?” Second, “What is an appropriate strategic planning model or approach to strategic planning for …

Development Of A Sports Management Option To The Associates Degree In Health And Exercise Science At Camden County College, With A Plan For Implementation And Evaluation, Nicholas J. Dicicco

Abraham S. Fischler College of Education ETD Archive

The department of health and exercise science at Camden County College (CCC) offers certificate, and degree programs. The degree program is its largest. The problem is that the curriculum in this program has not evolved to keep pace with advances in the field. This has led to a disconnect between the four-year institution program offerings in this field, and the program offerings at CCC, a trend of declining enrollments, and the loss of credits upon transfer by students in the degree program.

As a response to this problem, a sport management option to the curriculum was developed, along with a …
