“…Our observations of the new relationships continuing to evolve in the off-season and permeating into broader areas of life (e.g., business and family) supports the notion that relationships provide enduring benefits (Wann, 2006c) and highlights the significance of relationships as a well-being domain (Seligman, 2011). The importance of building relationships with others has been reported extensively in participatory settings (Coghlan & Filo, 2013) as well as in spectator research demonstrating how sport entities can act as a social catalyst facilitating the development of connections with specific communities and likeminded individuals (Gibson et al, 2002;Harrolle, et al, 2010;Heere, James, Yoshida, & Scremin, 2011;Inoue & Havard, 2014;Katz & Heere, 2013;Lock & Funk, in press;Trail et al, 2000Trail et al, , 2005Trail et al, 2003;Wann & Weaver, 2009). Perhaps most importantly, the results support Wann's (2006c) TISPH model and provide insights into the specific actions that enhance social interaction and social-psychological health (Wann & Weaver, 2009).…”

“…Research has illustrated that relationships can be both an antecedent and an outcome of sport spectating, demonstrating the ongoing interaction between sport consumption and the connections built through spectating (Wann, 2006c). Research has demonstrated that a heightened sense of camaraderie at an event can influence perceptions of the social impact of the event and the purchasing behaviour of attendees in relation to the event and the event sponsor's products (Inoue & Havard, 2014).…”

Sport spectating provides numerous benefits for sport organisations and individuals.In this paper we use a positive psychology approach to examine the individual-level benefits of sport consumption in order to investigate the activation of five domains of well-being: positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment (PERMA).Using a two-study panel research design, we collected qualitative data from a sample of Australian Rules Football consumers. In the first study, we explored how the PERMA domains were activated during the season. Study two included a follow-up interview with eight initial respondents in the off-season. We found evidence of four PERMA domains that were activated in the sport spectator context by a variety of consumer experiences. The emergence of these domains in both studies suggests sport marketers would benefit from actions including: creating more social spaces within their stadiums, hosting regular offseason events, and creating social-media based competitions which promote fan engagement and interactions throughout the calendar year. EXPLORING PERMA IN SPECTATOR SPORT 3Exploring PERMA in spectator sport: Applying positive psychology to examine the individual-level benefits of sport consumption Sport management researchers have traditionally focused on how to leverage the relationship between individuals and sport organisations to benefit sport leagues and teams.Such research contributes to understanding how sport organisations might best connect with customers to reap organisational benefits (Lock, Funk, Doyle, & McDonald, 2014). Whilst valuable, this perspective focuses largely on the perspective of sport organisations, which detracts attention from the individual-level benefits of spectating. Inoue, Berg, and Chelladurai (2015) illustrate this oversight, outlining a paucity of research attention dedicated to the relationship between sport consumption, and health and well-being. Furthermore, Inoue et al. (2015) note that only 9% of studies exploring this relationship are located in sport management journals, prompting a call for more research in this emerging area. Thus, in this paper we investigate the wider impacts of sport consumption and how specific domains of well-being are activated through sport spectating (Wann, 2006c).Research concerning the health and well-being benefits associated with sport has focused mainly on participation; rather than spectatorship. Existing spectator research, however, focuses on health and physical domains of well-being, devoting less attention to psychological states. A review of 135 relevant spectator manuscripts published between 1990 and 2014 demonstrated that health (47%) and physical well-being (24%) are well researched; however, domains of mental (20%) and social well-being (15%) receive much less attention (Inoue et al., 2015). Despite this weakness, researchers have established that sport spectating and psychological health are conceptually (Wann, 2006c) and empirically related (e.g., Branscombe & Wann, 1...

“…A review of extant literature suggests that there are two types of cause-related sport sponsorship (Fortunato, 2009;Inoue & Havard, 2014;Irwin et al, 2003Irwin et al, , 2010. The first type is a firm's sponsorship of a cause-related sport event, a spectator sport event that is directly linked to a specific cause and operates with the purpose of raising funds for a specific benefactor (Inoue & Havard, 2014). The FESJC is an example of a cause-related sport event because it is directly related to a specific cause (i.e., pediatric cancer and other catastrophic illnesses) and raises money and awareness for its benefactor, St. Jude.…”

“…Because of its cause affiliation, employees' reaction to cause-related sport sponsorship may be different from their reaction to regular sport sponsorship. Indeed, research on consumers suggests that the cause affiliation, rather than the sport affiliation, of cause-related sport sponsorship predominantly determines the consumer evaluation of this category of sponsorship (Irwin et al, 2003(Irwin et al, , 2010Lee & Ferreira, 2013), although some evidence still points to the opposite conclusion (Inoue & Havard, 2014).…”

Inoue , Y and Havard, CT and Irwin, RL (2016)Roles of sport and cause involvement in determining employees' beliefs about cause-related sport sponsorship. AbstractThis study investigated the roles of employees' involvement with the sponsored sport and cause in determining their beliefs about cause-related sport sponsorship. Despite the prevailing logic that companies can enhance the perception of goodwill by sponsoring sport that is important to their employees, employees' sport involvement was found to have no effect on their sponsorship beliefs. In contrast, cause involvement alone explained a large amount of the variance in those beliefs.

“…O contexto social e cultural tem sido apontado na literatura como sendo importante na avaliação da qualidade dos eventos (AU, 1999, AGARWAL;MALHORTA;BOLTON, 2010). Em linha com esta ideia, estudos têm demonstrado a importância de se identificar fatores que influenciam a percepção da qualidade do evento para os consumidores (PORTER;FLETCHER, 2008, INOUE;HAVARD, 2014).…”
