Synopsis

The book examines the ways in which sporting institutions are engaged with the local community in projects that target youth, health or social engagement, and have accidentally and informally become governance mechanisms. This book draws upon the interpretivist approach in governance to suggest that sporting organisations have become governing instruments by default, as the communities they work with and reach out to show greater trust and participation. As this process occurs, the sporting organisations adopt governance like behaviours and roles, as they ascribe these meanings to the renewal projects.
