This book explores issues related to the abuse of referees and match officials in sport. Drawing on original empirical research in football, rugby union, rugby league and cricket, it provides an insight into the complexities involved in the recruitment, retention and development processes of match officials from across the global sports industry.
Using an evidence-based approach, the book examines why abuse occurs, the operational environments in which match officials operate, and underlying issues and trends that cut across sports and therefore can be linked to wider societal trends. It challenges global sport policy and discusses the development of an inclusive, cohesive and facilitative environment for match officials, players, coaches and spectators to ensure the future provision of global sport.
Referees, Match Officials and Abuse is an invaluable resource for all students, scholars and national governing bodies of sport with an interest in match officials, sports governance, sport policy, sport management and the sociology of sport.
"The purpose has been to investigate why judges are physically and verbally attacked and insulted, what the abuse and attacks look like, and in what contexts they occur. In addition, they have the ambition to present a program of measures that can reduce the incidences of these attacks."
-Bo Carlsson, Department of Sport Sciences, Linn?us University, idrottsforum.org More
