In many countries they are a key component of the sport delivery system. This study examines the role and evolution of sports clubs in Singapore against a backdrop of the socio-political-economic development. In the process, three themes are identified, namely, (a) the influence of state intervention, (b) the nature and relevance of sports clubs through the years, and (c) market-sector development and its influence on sports clubs. The functionalist view provides us with an understanding of the socio-political-economic conditions and why the government of Singapore employs sport as a vehicle for social development and nation-building. How the resultant sports policies, state-funded facilities, and sports participation conduits offered by the private sector shaped the evolution of the role of sports clubs is discussed. In Singapore, the role of sports clubs is unique in that participating in sports is no longer confined to the traditional sports clubs, but is distributed across state-funded facilities and membership programmes as well as private-sector offerings. Instead of sports being confined to the elite few as in the past, the notion of ‘Sport Without Boundaries’ envisioned by Vision2030 is becoming a reality.","PeriodicalId":320773,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Sport and Social Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122353085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Belly dance was introduced to Taiwan in 2002, marketed primarily as a ‘body slimming exercise’ with a sense of exoticism. According to previous studies, fitness, weight-loss and body-shaping are the main motivations for most female participants despite their wide range of age groups and social classes. While the former studies generally regard ‘the popularization of belly dance in Taiwan’ as a fad, this study aims to give a deeper interpretation of the phenomenon by exploring the social and cultural factors which have contributed to the localization of this dance. The paper employs methods of textual analysis, participant observation and in-depth interview. The data collected reveal that belly dance is primarily defined by Taiwanese women as an exercise rather than a folk dance or an art form. In addition, the study examines the importance of the roles played by the marketing strategies adopted by the pioneering promoters of belly dance, government policies on sports and health, the association with community universities, and the ideas of traditional Chinese medicine in Taiwanese society in building the beneficial image of belly dance in Taiwan.","PeriodicalId":320773,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Sport and Social Science","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130779571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article explores this issue looking at sport practice among monks and novices belonging to a minority group in Southwest China, the Tai Lue of Sipsong Panna. In the last few years, basketball in particular has become popular among members of this monastic community. It has also come to be seen by both outsiders and insiders as proof of the defectiveness of monasticism in this region. Looking at this phenomenon from an anthropological perspective, and emphasizing the temporary character of monastic ordination in Sipsong Panna, the paper argues that, far from being something alien to their practice or an external imposition of modernity, sport practice connects with a centuries-old tradition of bodily cultivation among local monastics, and is today a fundamental part of their holistic development as men and as members of a minority group in contemporary China.","PeriodicalId":320773,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Sport and Social Science","volume":"19 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114119312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While Macau organized the 2005 Games in an extravagant manner, Hong Kong prepared the 2009 Games on a conservative basis. Tianjin even more frugally completed every single task for the holding of the 2013 Games. This article aims to understand the causes of their inconsistent hosting styles. The findings confirmed that the domestic elements of the SARs resulted in Macau’s extravagance and Hong Kong’s conservativeness, whereas factors relating to the central government of China led to Tianjin’s frugality. Thus, unlike the municipalities, the SARs, under their ‘One Country Two Systems’ franchise, were able to enjoy a high level of autonomy in handling local sports affairs. Data for analysis were from governmental documents, journalistic reports and scholarly works.","PeriodicalId":320773,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Sport and Social Science","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115616464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The primary objective of this study was to investigate the risk-management policies and practices of sport clubs in South Korea. Specifically, this study investigated a broad spectrum of issues including the number of injury-related lawsuits, risk-management polices/practices, and legal implications in sport clubs. This study was conducted using a self-developed 36-item questionnaire that was distributed by five trained survey couriers who obtained completed surveys from 304 sport club managers by visiting various sport/recreation facilities in South Korea. Overall, the results of this study revealed that risk-management policies and practices of sport clubs were not conducted in a consistent manner although most managers experienced or observed a significant number of sport-club-related injuries.

This is especially true in the local context of the host city where the event takes place. Drawing from the results of ethnographic fieldwork, this paper examines the Indonesian city of Palembang as a repeated host of international sports events and how these events create an image and narrative of success with regard to the city. The focus lies on change of image as Palembang formerly had a negative reputation. The time frame includes the 2011 SEA Games, the 2013 Islamic Solidarity Games and the upcoming 2018 Asian Games. Furthermore, the narrative of success can be perceived as a starting point to shed light on Palembang’s potential for city marketing and promotion using sport as an urban event to attract visitors and investors. One salient promotion strategy is to link different events taking place in Palembang to the image of the city as a ‘sport city’.","PeriodicalId":320773,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Sport and Social Science","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114055083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It concludes that Chinese hosting cities will have to constantly carry out various cost-saving policies to ensure that the overall spending on any mega-sports event during the Xi era is under budget and is less than the costs of similar preceding events, as frugality may benefit China on the global stage.","PeriodicalId":320773,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Sport and Social Science","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116878468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
