“…Sport facilities' influence on sport participation may, therefore, be varied and not necessarily have a positive impact on sport participation or its associated outcomes for users. This is despite the drive by sport policy to influence the dynamics and strategic direction of delivery systems (Shilbury, O'Boyle, & Ferkins, 2016;Wicker, Hallmann, & Breuer, 2013); that is, sport can be a tool to solve societal problems (Stenling, 2014). These dynamics illustrate the need to capture the whole delivery system across the macro, meso, and micro levels so that the bigger picture is captured to better inform sport management strategies for mass participation (Rowe, Shilbury, Ferkins, & Hinckson, 2013).…”

Sport delivery systems, aimed at facilitating sports participation, represent an interinstitutional, cross-sector collaboration. Researchers focusing on the impact of different levels of sport provision from policy, through facilities, to end users remains limited. The authors address this gap in knowledge through a mixed-methods approach to examine sport participation from the perspective of the whole delivery system. Specifically, focusing on a County Sport Partnership region in the UK, the authors examine sport participation from the policy (macro), facility (meso), and end user (micro) levels. Regional heads responsible for sport development and delivery participated in semi-structured interviews, facility-level managers completed a survey, and end-users across public, private, and outsourced facilities participated in focus groups. Results show a clear divergence between the sport policy goals across the private and public sectors, with significant differences observed between facility types on their social and commercial objectives and their prioritized stakeholder groups. The divergence has little impact on user participation or expression of health, wellbeing, and social capital, offering new evidence on the role of neoliberalism in sport delivery systems.

“…124 Teniendo en cuenta la historia del uso de sustancias ilícitas en competición y los ámbitos que constituyen el contexto del dopaje (atletas, laboratorios y entorno deportivo), es necesario reconocer los avances que en materia científica contribuyen a enfrentar el dopaje en el deporte, 93 los cuales han fortalecido las políticas antidopaje. Reconociendo que el campo del deporte es un sistema complejo con una diversidad de intereses 125 y en el que existen organizaciones que ejercen relaciones de poder asimétricas, 126 es prioritario analizar aquellos discursos emergentes que ven en las políticas sancionatorias una amenaza a la estabilidad del clima competitivo, 56,127,128 tomando como alternativa al uso de sustancias prohibidas, la evaluación del potencial de dopaje de los fármacos antes que dichos medicamentos estén disponibles. 129 Al examinar la efectividad de los procedimientos actuales para medir y mejorar el cumplimiento de las normas antidopaje, 130 es común encontrar como alternativa un análisis de los factores de política deportiva que conducen al éxito internacional, 131,132 sin desconocer la importancia de la educación antidopaje y particularmente la formación de profesores.…”

This paper aims to present a review of the concept doping in scientific journals published in the period 2008 to 2018. The diversity of approaches that position doping as a socially acute question (SAQ) allow us to recognize the implications of this concept in educational contexts. The state of the art methodology seeks to reflexively recover production on the meaning that is attributed in the literature to the knowledge, practices and social, political and educational implications of a subject as complex as doping. Among the trends found, the Analytical Chemistry approach is highlighted, associated with the studies carried out in the laboratories on techniques and methods for the detection of prohibited substances; the consequences in terms of costs and benefits of doping from biochemical and physiological studies; the set of ideas, conceptions and representations that people have against doping; the educational programs and the pedagogical proposals that study the psychological, epistemological and methodological foundations for the prevention of doping; and the legal aspects, public policies and debates around doping and competition rules.

“…Although stakeholders may favour one or two regimes of practices, in interviews, they appeared to use changing, varying and overlapping regimes of practices, probably to adapt to the changing circumstances in governing practices in FCMACS. This change and the emerging overlap between regimes could constitute a (partial) shared understanding or consensus on specific issues and could be compared with what Shilbury and Ferkins (2015) and Shilbury et al (2016) describe as the need for achieving mutual understanding in collaborate forms of governing. The results also show that this agreement on issues contains different, often conflicting and ambiguous, ways of reasoning that will complicate the governing of FCMACS.…”

The governing of sport has recently shifted from self-regulation towards various forms of joint regulation. This study uses the concept of governmentality to analyse practices of governing full contact martial arts and combat sports (FCMACS) in the Netherlands to answer the question of how the concept of governmentality informs the current and future governing of FCMACS. Dean's methodological guidelines were used in the analysis of the consensus and contradictions in the rationalities and related technologies of power (regimes of practices) expressed in the regulation of FCMACS. According to the study's respondents, future practices of the governing of FCMACS must enact equitable restrictions for all gyms and fight events and highlight the social value of FCMACS to facilitate them gaining the same status as regular sports. Such change requires practices of governing that combine authority and mediation with a climate open to self-regulation. ARTICLE HISTORY
