“…Every word in a table caption must be capitalized except for short minor words as listed in Section III-B. Captions with table numbers must be placed before their associated tables, as shown in Table Sports can potentially transform the lives of people with disabilities, promoting social inclusion and empowerment [6], [41], [42]. However, attitudinal and structural barriers, such as ableism and a lack of inclusive practices in sports clubs, often hinder this potential [43], [44].…”

This study explores the impact of sport on the social inclusion and economic well-being of people with disabilities in the community and its contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) relating to the social inclusion and economic well-being of people with disabilities. Data is collected by purposive sampling and analyzed using a qualitative method. The patterns of results show that sports can potentially transform the lives of people with disabilities, promoting social inclusion and empowerment. However, attitudinal and structural barriers, such as ableism and a need for inclusive practices in sports clubs, often hinder this potential. To overcome these challenges, develop and enact disability-inclusive sports policies. The discussion proposes some implications for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly social inclusion, economic well-being, participation, and equality targets. Social inclusion through sport, equal economic opportunities, and encouraging the participation of athletes with disabilities in various competitions align with the SDGs’ vision to create an inclusive, equitable, and sustainable society for all people.

“…To explain these three dimensions, autonomy is thought to occur when an individual has a choice in their personal direction, competence is when a person feels effective in their pursuits, and relatedness occurs through connections with others. Consequently, when looking to use sport for educational outcomes, scholars have highlighted the importance of fostering autonomy with local community leaders who can help guide community members into programs (Pate et al, 2019). In line with this, community leaders should be able to foster their connections (e.g., relatedness) with other leaders who are also working to achieve similar community outcomes.…”

“…Recent investigations have examined the perspectives of those managing sport and how they have implemented specific projects to increase the participation of disabled people (Cottingham et al, 2013a;Cunningham & Warner, 2019;Jeanes et al, 2018;Pate et al, 2020;Storr et al, 2021). Importantly at this micro-level, researchers have been more successful at increasing the voices and experiences of disabled people.…”

“…This is because many of these barriers are manifest from the attitudes and perspectives of those who manage sport (Jeanes et al, 2018;Storr et al, 2021). Programs to educate sport's stakeholders are vital for impacting disability sport participation (Cottingham et al, 2013;Cunningham & Warner, 2019;Pate et al, 2020). Despite this burgeoning literature, more work is needed to explore how interlevel relations react when change occurs in order to better understand the challenges and opportunities available to disability sport.…”

Research question: This paper takes a multilevel perspective by combining meso and micro levels of analysis to examine change within a field of disability sport. What is the impact of policy shifts on the power relations between organizations in a field of disability sport? How does change prompt action at the micro-level of disability sport management? Research methods: A longitudinal, ethnography of organizations involved in managing disability cricket is conducted during the inaugural implementation of Sport England's Whole Sport Plans. Semi-structured interviews with 17 managers and participant observations in the form of field notes were the main tools of data collection. Results and findings: While the appearance of structural management relations within the field did not appear to change, the underlying power dynamics did. Shifting power relations at the meso-level and the availability of new economic capital to reinforce this power shift, created a series of implications for agents operating at the micro-level, and on the lived experience of disability sport managers. Implications: Much of the resistance to change that occurred could have been avoided by better communication between agents. Greater effort should be made policymakers to understand the experiences of those who work to develop sport.
