CFP: Engaging the Field: Sport in Under-Resourced, Underdeveloped, and Conflict Regions - Qualitative Research in Sport, Exercise and Health
Engaging the Field: Sport in Under-Resourced, Underdeveloped, and Conflict Regions
There have been concomitant calls for increased rigour in sport for development and peace (SDP) research and cautions against neocolonial approaches that may subjugate knowledge. To address these concerns, this special issue calls for research that considers the impacts of SDP programmes as well as the role of sport as it naturally occurs in under-resourced, underdeveloped, and conflict regions. Of particular interest is research that is methodologically diverse, innovative, and engages with athletes, coaches, and community stakeholders (e.g., teachers, police officers, pastors, government leaders) to better understand the meaning they ascribe to sport, their sport experiences, and their perceptions of the role of sport in promoting (or obstructing) development and peace. Additional topics might include, but are not limited to, the use of sport in social movements, sport experiences of those connected to gender-based violence (victims and perpetrators), and the meaning and role of sport after a disaster or terrorist activity in community response and rebuilding.
Submission instructions
Papers must be submitted to the Qualitative Research in Sport, Exercise and Health ScholarOne site. Submissions must be received by 31st March 2016, with final versions due on 31st July 2016.

CFP: The 9th Annual Physical Cultural Studies Graduate Student Conference
Call for Abstracts:
The 9th Annual Physical Cultural Studies Graduate Student Conference:
“Engaging Health and Physical Culture:
Power, Politics, and Possibilities”
Friday March 4th, 2016
Physical Cultural Studies (PCS) – housed within the Department of Kinesiology at the University of Maryland – will host their 9th Annual Graduate Student Conference onFriday March 4th, 2016 at the School of Public Health Building on the College Park campus. This one-day conference will consist of a series of student presentations commenced with an alumni keynote address by Dr. Oliver Rick, PCS alumnus and current assistant professor of Sport Management and Recreation at Springfield College, and a PCS address by Dr. Dave Zang, professor of Kinesiology at Towson University. Dr. Rick’s work currently focuses on developing innovative theory to better engage with physical cultures in contemporary urban settings. In particular this includes a focus on the urban as assemblage, as well as affect theory and non-representational dimensions of interaction. Dr. Zang’s research has focused on sport history, sports literature, and history of popular culture.
This year, the conference will be organized around the theme, “Engaging Health and Physical Culture: Power, Politics, and Possibilities”. Given the increasing focus on physical activity and culture as a means of health promotion-- as well as our particular location in a School of Public Health -- engagement with health practices, discourses, and possibilities, is vital. We seek to strengthen the critical scholarly connection between physical culture and health, utilizing this year’s conference to explore and examine the complex landscape of critical public health.
We invite papers that reflect upon these and other relevant questions and topics:
- Possibilities for the study of health as an empirical site for Physical Cultural Studies
- What are the political responsibilities of critical scholars as well as health practitioners within a School of Public Health?
- What exclusions are produced by dominant health discourses and practices? How are these being accommodated and/or resisted within physical cultural practices?
- How can the materiality of the body be engaged within PCS? What theories, methodologies, and epistemologies can be used in this study?
- How can we incorporate feminist, critical race, queer theories as well as other critical frameworks into our understandings of physical culture and health?
The conference aims to promote an inter- and trans-disciplinary dialogue, and as such is a space for work that develops from within or across multiple academic disciplines. We welcome all submissions from a multitude of disciplines on a multitude of related topics, but encourage submissions interrogating physical cultural practices.
The submission deadline is January 29th, 2016
Please e-mail abstracts (300 word limit) to umdpcs@gmail.com
Within your email, include as an attachment (in .doc or .pdf format) the following: Paper Title, Abstract, Keywords, Author(s) contact information, and institutional affiliation(s).

CFP: College Athletes' Rights & Empowerment: Visioning A New Paradigm of College Sport Conference
Drexel university
College Athletes’ Rights & Empowerment:
Visioning A New Paradigm of
College Sport
Conference
March 24-26, 2016
Call for Papers
ABOUT
Drexel University's Center for Hospitality and Sport Management is proudly hosting the College Athletes' Rights & Empowerment: Visioning A New Paradigm of College Sport Conference, March 24-26 on Drexel's campus.
Civil rights have been defined as “the rights of citizens to political and social freedom and equality.” During the past 20 years, there has been a growing awareness that the practices that are used by the college sport industry to regulate players in the sports of football and basketball (the economic drivers of the industry) often deny them basic civil rights and liberties, impede their ability to access a meaningful education, subject them to harsh treatment and unsafe workplaces, violate anti-trust law, and artificially suppress their value. This conference is designed to bring scholars, journalists, practitioners, and athletes together for the purpose of envisioning a new model of college sport for the 21st century that places the health, well-being, and welfare of college athletes at the center and provides a democratic avenue for athletes to share in the decision making that shapes the rules governing their lives.
What will such a visioning require? How do efforts to regulate athletes in the sports of football and basketball impact the treatment of athletes throughout the entire college sport system? What would the impact be if some Division I sports evolved into a “club-sport” framework, something that Michigan State president Lou Anna Simon suggested in the fall of 2015 warranted thought and consideration? Is it time for the system of college sport to be restructured away from a one-size-fits all model of regulation to federated structures that account for different sports and their respective markets? How do various constituents respond to the Wall Street Journal’s question of whether college sport needs the NCAA?

CFP: The Sport Documentary - Special Issue of Journal of Sport & Social Issues
CFP: Special Issue of Journal of Sport & Social Issues
The Sport Documentary
Editors:
Travis Vogan and CL Cole
The sport documentary—in film, television, and online—has achieved a heightened degree of prominence in recent years with the launch of ESPN Films’ 30 for 30 series (2009-present), PBS Frontline’s controversial League of Denial: The NFL’s Concussion Crisis (2013), and Daniel Lindsay and T.J. Martin’s Academy Award-winningUndefeated (2011). Sport documentaries—regardless of the genre’s frequent pretensions—do not merely showcase reality. Rather, they construct specific versions of sporting culture that serve distinct economic, industrial, institutional, historical, and sociopolitical ends ripe for criticism, contextualization, and exploration.
This special issue of JSSI aims to bring attention to this important but understudied area by probing the sport documentary’s cultural meanings, aesthetic practices, industrial and commercial dimensions, and political contours across historical, social, and geographic contexts. It hopes to consider and critique the sport documentary’s increasingly visible and powerful position in contemporary culture and to forge novel connections between the study of nonfiction media and sport.
Interested contributors should send a proposal (200-250 words) to the editors by 15 December 2015. First drafts of selected projects will be due 1 June 2016.
