SPORTS MANAGEMENT HANDBOOK 2013 5 L
ast year was the most extraordinary ever for British sport and the Olympics and Paralympics have left a very warm glow from a job well done and inspired the nation. They've also bound the UK in subtle ways with Brazil and
the team in Rio and as the handover commences, many UK organisations and companies are already being invited to begin the knowledge transfer and take up contracts to supply goods and services to the next Games. This is just one example of how the world of sport is
becoming more connected and where once Sports Management focused almost exclusively on UK sport, our readership is growing more global and the demand from readers for information about best practice and innovation from the best in the world is inspiring us to extend our coverage to share this know-how. We're also inspired by how sport can break down social and cultural barriers and
heal communities and in this edition of the Sports Management Handbook we pick up the thread of Peace and Sport and look at ways in which our fundamental need to move, to play and to exercise has brought people together and created camaraderie and opportunity in some of the most challenging places on earth (page 40). The sports market is doing well, growing at 7 per cent a year between 2011 and
2012 in the UK and outpacing most other areas of the economy, as we show in our statistics roundup from the Sports Industry Research Centre on page 70. We hope you enjoy this edition of the Handbook and that you'll get in touch with suggestions, feedback and contributions for the next edition.
