How can we get to know local governance of sports? – A case study in a Lagged region
Journal Title: CITIUS ALTIUS FORTIUS - JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORT - Year 2011, Vol 11, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper aims to produce some new knowledge on local sport in a lagged region of Portugal – Guarda. Considering sport as a relevant social phenomenon while it allocates public funding and has important media impact, we need to know better how the sport institutions and clubs develop and finance their projects in order to produce better collective actions. In this paper we study Guarda County and understood how its 26’s entities (Local municipality and School Sport Team, 7 federated sport associations, 5 schools and 13 volunteer private clubs) organize and finance sports activities. After a reflective characterization of the public expenditure and cost calculus of some sport activities we concluded some of the most relevant clubs in number of practitioners are not the most costly activities. The Municipality plays a determinant role in the sport structure but other entities value more the Public School Team for sport development. Soccer continues to play a central role in those entities lives but Judo, Handball, Volleyball and Athletics are raising their prestige.
