Un total de 15.778 clientes de 97 centros deportivos de ciudades de más de 100.000 habitantes fueron encuestados a través de un cuestionario diseñado ad hoc. Lo resultados muestran una mayor demanda de AADD entre el colectivo de mujeres (77,5%) frente a los hombres (45,9%), y entre las franjas de edad comprendidas entre los 25 y 64 años superando el 60%. Los datos obtenidos confirman que las AADD funcionan como un elemento de fidelización entre el colectivo de personas que hacen AADD de manera regular, presentandouna mayor permanencia, y un mayor volumen de días y de horas semanales de asistencia. The aim of the study was to determine the demand of group exercise training (GET) by members of Spanish sports centers, and determine if GET could be considered as a retention element. A total of 15,778 members from 97 sports centers in cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants were surveyed through an ad hoc questionnaire. The results show a higher demand for GET among the group of women (77.5%) than men (45.9%), and between ages 25 and 64 exceeding 60%. The data obtained confirm that GET work as a loyalty element among the group of people who attend GET on a regular basis, presenting a greater membership tenure, and a greater volume of attendance days and weekly hours.
Resumen: El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los yacimientos de inserción profesional y las condiciones laborales de las tituladas y los titulados en Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte (CAFyD) a través de un estudio comparativo entre sexos. Para ello, en el año 2013, se administró un cuestionario a un total de 1.000 personas egresadas en CAFyD por las universidades catalanes. Los resultados indican que no existe una discriminación directa en las condiciones de trabajo, para un mismo cargo mujeres y hombres presentan condiciones similares. En cambio, sí que se ha detectado una discriminación indirecta fruto de la carga social y cultural que afecta a las preferencias de las mujeres a la hora de escoger un determinado yacimiento de inserción.Abstract: This paper aims to analyse the sources of employment for university graduates in Physical Activity and Sport Science through a gender-based comparative study. With this objective, in 2013, a questionnaire was administered to total of 1,000 university graduates in Physical Activity and Sport Science from Catalan universities. The results indicate that there is no direct discrimination in working conditions, for a same position women and men share similar conditions. However, an indirect discrimination has been detected as a result of the social and cultural burden that affects the preferences of women when accessing and choosing a particular insertion field.
Los últimos años del deporte en España muestran un alto crecimiento en la práctica del pádel (Gómez-Chacón, Pascua-Barón y Fernández–Martínez, 2017). El pádel, es el deporte de raqueta más practicado semanalmente por la población Española(Consejo Superior de Deportes, 2015).Asimismo, y siguiendo la línea de otros autores, el pádel, es el deporte que más se ha desarrollado en los últimos 23 años con un crecimiento del 1.947,41% (López, 2017).El objetivo de este estudio es conocer la evolución de las licencias federativas de pádel en Andalucía durante los años 2009-2016, para poder certificar que todos los datos encontrados coinciden con lo que han afirmado diversos autores y organismos públicos. Se consultó la base de datos de la federación Andaluza de Pádel. Todos los datos extraídos en la bibliografía consultada no hacen más que indicar que el pádel es uno de los deportes más emergentes y con mayor crecimiento y evolución del siglo XXI. The last years of sport in Spain show a high growth in the practice of paddle (Gómez-Chacón, Pascua-Barón and Fernández-Martínez, 2017). The paddle, is the sport of racket more practiced weekly by the Spanish population (Superior Council of Sports, 2015). Likewise, and following the line of other authors, paddle is the sport that has most developed in the last 23 years with a growth of 1,947.41% (López, 2017). The objective of this study is to know the evolution of the federative paddle licenses in Andalusia in absolute category during the years 2009-2016 in order to certify that all the data found coincide with what various authors and public bodies have affirmed. The database of the Andalusian federation of Paddle was consulted. All the data extracted in the consulted bibliography do not do more than indicate that the paddle is one of the most emergent sports and with greater growth of the XXI century.
The new job opportunities that resulted from the growth of the sports industry, due to the impact of sports on society and the increase of sports practice, along with the concern about the influence of such practice on health, have led experts in this field to demand the professionalization of the sector. Thereby, a regulatory development is being carried out, which, although at the regional level, recognises the professions of sports, determining the official academic titles or professional qualifications required for the professional practice and assigning to each profession its corresponding functional scope. Despite the fact that the affiliation rate of the Professional Association of Graduates in Physical Activity and Sports Science does not exceed 15% of the university graduates in Spain, such rate has increased in the last years. As an example, in Andalusia, the number of members has doubled in the last four years. This increase in affiliation may be a reflection of the professionalization process that the sports sector has been experiencing. The aim of this study was to determine the professional profile of graduates with a university degree in Physical Activity and Sports Science. As the main results, there continues to be a higher percentage of men who opt to take these courses, most of them have complementary training/education and there is a high percentage of multiple employment, that is, they combine more than one job, although teaching is still the most popular profession of choice. However, the percentage of graduates who choose teaching as a career is decreasing, which could be due to the diversification of the sector and of the sports professions.
RESUMEN:La Responsabilidad Social Corporativa (RSC) es una manera de gestionar que va más allá de las obligaciones legales de las organizaciones, se trata de garantizar un desarrollo sostenible en tres áreas principales: económica, social y medio ambiental. Este artículo analiza la presencia del concepto de RSC en el contenido de los sitios web de las empresas de turismo activo de Andalucía. Teniendo en cuenta que para este tipo de empresas la población escolar es un importante nicho de mercado, cobra especial relevancia saber si éstas comunican sus acciones de RSC. El método de estudio se ha basado en un análisis cuantitativo del contenido semántico de 310 sitios webs de empresas de turismo activo a través de la búsqueda de la palabra clave "Responsabilidad Social Corporativa" y sus sinónimos mediante el motor de búsqueda Google. Los resultados indican una escasa presencia del concepto de la RSC en el contenido web, así como poca visibilidad de acuerdo a su ubicación. La adopción de una gestión desde la RSC contribuiría a la educación integral de niños y jóvenes, y su comunicación efectiva, aportaría un valor añadido para los docentes en la selección de proveedores de actividad física en el medio natural. Palabras clave: Responsabilidad Social Corporativa, desarrollo sostenible, turismo activo, deporte, Educación Física.ABSTRACT: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a management practice that goes beyond organizations legal obligations, it aims to guarantee a sustainable development in three main areas: economic, social and environmental. This article analyses the presence of CSR concept in the content of Andalusian active tourism companies' websites. Taking into account that for this type of business the school population is an important market niche, particular importance is attached to know if companies communicate their CSR actions. The methodology is based on a quantitative analysis of the semantic content of 310 Andalusian active tourism companies' websites through the keyword search "Corporate Social Responsibility" and its synonyms by using Google search engine. The results indicate a scarce presence of the CSR concept within websites content, as well as a low visibility of it according to its location. Adopting a CSR management approach would contribute to a comprehensive education of children and youth, and its effective communication would add value to teachers' decision when selecting an outdoor physical activity provider.
