Description
Sports violence, according to National Collegiate Athletic Association, is a behavior that aims to harm another player as a primary goal.
According to a NCAA Social Environments Study, 45 percent of men and 29 percent of women are willing to do whatever it takes to win, and more than a fifth of men believe winning is more important that good sportsmanship.
This accessible edition examines the issues surrounding violence in the world of sports and provides an overview of the topic.
Readers will be inspired to think critically about topics such as the reduction and prevention of violence in sports, violence perpetrated by nonathletes such as spectators and coaches, and the relationship between competition and aggression.
