“…The individual athlete's lack of leeway has been highly topical during the last years, with findings of institutional and team-mandated doping cases revealed. One example is the case during the 2014 Winter Olympic Games that ultimately led to Russia being barred as a country from the 2018 games (Altukhov and Nauright 2018); and other cases have occurred both at club level, e.g., the Essendon Football Club, and at the level of international federations, e.g., the IAAF (Skinner and Engelberg 2018). When there are this kind of institutional forces at play, and individuals have limited leeway, they can become pawns in a game.…”

Limitations and duties: elite athletes’ perceptions of compliance with anti-doping rules

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The main purpose of this article is to examine how elite athletes perceive their own responsibilities and possibilities to be compliant with the anti-doping regulations, and to draw conclusions about what these perceptions mean in relation to the legitimacy of the anti-doping system. A qualitative research design, with interviews conducted with athletes globally, was employed to capture elite sportspersons' views on anti-doping policy and procedures. The analysis was based on a theoretical framework on legitimacy. The findings show that athletes' situation is characterized by limited information and a lack of leeway. At the same time, athletes find themselves obliged to be dutiful. We discuss the complex situation of simultaneously facing perceived limitations and duties, and consider the limits that athletes experience in relation to compliance, which may place the legitimacy of the anti-doping system at risk.

“…Ao mesmo tempo que surgiam novas indústrias, novas ou melhoradas áreas de atuação, surgiram também novos gestores profissionais dotados de maior conhecimento (CUNHA; REGO; CABRAL-CARDOSO, 2019). A constante evolução das sociedades nas mais diversas dimensões, deram origem a novas oportunidades e necessidades de intervenção na área do desporto, promovendo um maior conhecimento ao longo das últimas décadas (CHAPPELET, 2009;ANDREWS, 2010;GIRGINOV, 2010;CIOMAGA, 2013;PEACHEY et al, 2015;ENGELBERG, 2017;MIRAGAIA;SOARES, 2017;LINDSEY;DARBY, 2019;TIAN;WISE, 2019;GAMMELSAETER, 2021;RAYNER;WEBB, 2021).…”

“…is to acknowledge the complexity of this field by embracing more innovative research approaches (Skinner & Engelberg, 2018). We contend that what is required to develop the field is cutting-edge, robust research such as longitudinal studies and mixedmethod designs based on theories of change, which are more appropriate for establishing causality.…”

The societal impact of elite sport: positives and negatives: introduction to ESMQ special issue

As nations are increasingly investing large amounts of public money in elite sport development, policy makers often claim that elite sport will not only lead to more medals, but it will also trigger a range of wider societal outcomes. This point is clearly illustrated by the high-performance directors who were interviewed for this introduction. Notwithstanding the many claims, empirical studies that explore the outcomes of elite sport to society are largely fragmented and anecdotal. The six papers within this Special Issue add to our academic understanding of the complexity and multidimensional nature of both investigating and managing the societal impact of elite sport. By testing the papers against a hierarchy of evidence, they resonate with calls for sport management researchers to contribute to the field by utilising robust and appropriate research designs. However, as confirmed by the various studies, causality on this topic is still difficult to establish. We, therefore, call for a future research agenda that shifts away from wondering 'if' particular societal impacts attributable to elite sport exist, to answering the question 'under what circumstances are they most likely to occur'.
