Although safety is a desirable goal, it may at times impinge on personal freedoms and the contribution of these activities to health and wellbeing, and it follows that a balance needs to be struck between safety and these other sought-for goals. A difficulty has been that safety concerns are usually addressed by carrying out a risk assessment, but, so far as the commonly used methods are concerned, the benefits of an activity are not part of this process and may be undervalued or forgotten. One solution has been to go beyond conventional risk assessment to a procedure that includes consideration of benefits. However, it is fair to say that this has been a slow process, partly because it appears novel and challenging, but this essay posits that benefit-risk assessment is not a newly invented procedure but one that has been commonplace throughout history, and that only from a narrow perspective can it be considered novel. The essay goes on to discuss aspects of the benefit-risk process including its historical roots, research insights, and implications for leisure time decision-making.","PeriodicalId":45670,"journal":{"name":"World Leisure Journal","volume":"64 1","pages":"383 - 398"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44816249","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}

Couched often as biologically given, differences in the uptake, training and playing of sport, from hobby to elite Olympian, are riven with discourses, practices and attitudes regarding the different aptitudes of men and women. Recognizing the ways these gendered differences operate is contentious and problematic, particularly in relation to women-only spaces. Such spaces can be used to promote the development and skills of women while simultaneously perpetuating and reinforcing women’s difference and inequality to men. Using the case study of bridge (the card game), we analyse the ways in which the women’s game is viewed as both hindering women’s progression in the game whilst also providing women spaces to compete internationally. Findings from an email questionnaire with tournament and club players show how the women’s game incapsulates both inequality and opportunity. The women’s game remains a divisive issue within the bridge world as it provides competitive opportunities for women at an elite level, whilst simultaneously being viewed as technically inferior and discriminatory. The paper argues that the tensions and ambivalences of the paradox of women-only spaces reflect ongoing hetero-patriarchal discourses within sporting and leisure contexts.","PeriodicalId":45670,"journal":{"name":"World Leisure Journal","volume":"64 1","pages":"342 - 360"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47811947","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}

Since 1952, WLO has been promoting leisure as integral to social, cultural, economic, and sustainable environmental development worldwide. As a member-driven organization with global representation, WLO has been achieving its mission, vision and goals through its programmes and activities that are developed according to four main strands: advocacy, research, education, and knowledge transfer. With members in almost 80 countries, WLO represents a wide range of academics and professionals in the leisure industry. One of WLO’s strategic goals is to develop projects and closer activity interactions in the non-represented countries. The governance model of WLO is decentralized, with the scientific and technical secretariat working as an engine from Bilbao, Spain, and academic and professional task forces spread all over the world. A number of events will be organized in 2022 to mark WLO’s 70th anniversary. These include the 2022 WL Youth Ambassador Contest, World Leisure Day 2022, the Knowledge Sharing and Networking Experiences in May and September, and the WLO Charter for Leisure webinars. A WLO podcast series will also be launched soon. While we look ahead to a bright future, we’d also like to take this time to recognize our storied past. Below are some significant moments in the history of the WLO.","PeriodicalId":45670,"journal":{"name":"World Leisure Journal","volume":"64 1","pages":"196 - 201"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41805333","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}

To social reformers it revealed inequalities to be addressed; to policy makers it was essential to planning and civic renewal. The Middletown survey was a social study of the city of Muncie, Indiana in 1924. As one of the earliest social surveys to be conducted by social anthropology, it remains a classic text of social science. Social anthropology dealt directly with the everyday life of the organic community and the cultural values and practices of people. It regarded leisure not as superfluous but as a vital field of both private and social life. Undertaken in the new modernity of the inter-war period, the Middletown survey presents a contemporaneous interpretation of the impact of the new technologies of the cinema, radio and automobile on established leisure patterns and of the changing nature and social functions of leisure-based clubs and associations. Anticipating recent interest in leisure and social capital, it reveals historical awareness of the importance of associational leisure activity to community cohesion and offers insights to a nascent sociology of leisure not yet widely recognized in leisure studies.","PeriodicalId":45670,"journal":{"name":"World Leisure Journal","volume":"64 1","pages":"290 - 303"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47269311","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}

Some of the existing health professions in SA may provide services similar to those of RT/TR as practised in the United States of America (USA). In particular, the scopes of practice of biokinetics (a SA profession similar to clinical exercise physiology), physiotherapy and occupational therapy show some similarities to the international concept of RT/TR. The study aimed to interpret and describe RT/TR, as practised in the USA, within the curricula of biokinetics, physiotherapy and occupational therapy. The credentialing document for the speciality of RT/TR published by the US National Council for Therapeutic Recreation Certification: Certification Standards: Information for New Applicants, 2018 was subjected to inductive content analysis, followed by a deductive analysis of the biokinetics, physiotherapy and occupational therapy curricula detailed in the yearbooks of seven SA universities. Some similarities were observed between the requirements of RT/TR in the USA and biokinetics, physiotherapy and occupational therapy curricula, especially in terms of foundational knowledge. However, knowledge about recreation, specifically RT/TR, was lacking from the biokinetics, physiotherapy and occupational therapy curricula, suggesting that RT/TR is not featured in them.","PeriodicalId":45670,"journal":{"name":"World Leisure Journal","volume":"64 1","pages":"309 - 324"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44674750","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}
