Sport logistics research: reviewing and line marking of a new field

Abstract: Purpose Although logistics management is a crucial part of local and global sports events, there is no research-driven characterization of “sports logistics management”. The purpose of this paper is to conceptualize a framework that allows for a more structured recognition of logistics in sports, in general, and sport event management, in particular. In addition, we conduct a systematic literature review of sports logistics management and locate opportunities for future research both for sports management and … Show more

“…The third step includes the retrieval of a 'baseline sample' to identify relevant articles. Following Herold et al [21], the selection for the search comprised two databases: The Elton Bryson Stephens Company (EBSCO) (Business Source complete) and the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) Web of Knowledge (Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI)-Database). EBSCO, as well as SCCI-databases, comprise extensive and comprehensive repositories in business and management research [22,23].…”

“…Similarly, the sport logistics research space has been lacking tailored frameworks or specific sports logistics conceptual advancements that go beyond those contributions that are merely associated with event logistics (e.g., see Emery, 2010;Haugen, 2011;Schwarz, Westerbeek, Liu, Emery, & Turner, 2017;Woratschek, Horbel, & Popp, 2014). Only recently, Herold et al (2019) developed the Sport Logistics Framework (SLF) based on a systematic literature review in order to provide framing and guidance to investigate sports logistical activities of sport organizations, especially their events and gameday operations. Conceptually, the authors distinguish the SLF into four sport logistics components, namely venue logistics, fan & spectator logistics, athletes' logistics management, and equipment logistics (see Figure 1).…”

“…Sport eventsespecially major and mega eventsrequire sports managers to deal with logistics operations occurring at different levels and often in parallel (Minis, Paraschi, & Tzimourtas, 2006). Surprisingly though, despite the fact that sport management has become a thriving research field within management studies, sport logistics in general and aspect in sports event logistics in particular have received little scientific attention (Herold, Breitbarth, Schulenkorf, & Kummer, 2019).…”
