A sociology of Scottish football fan cultureGiulianotti, Richard January 1996 (has links)
While football is legitimately regarded as the ultimate global game, its significance to Scotland is even more exaggerated, in historical, social and cultural terms. Scots were at the forefront of 'globalising' the sport, teaching the English and other foreigners to play a highly technical and 'passing' game, only to abandon this later with characteristic complacency. Within Scotland, 'the only game' has provided its inhabitants with a cultural obsession, in which sectarian, regional and national animosities and inequalities may be contested and unsatisfactorily resolved. Consequently, the Scots are credited with gifting the world the phenomenon of 'football hooliganism', primarily at domestic club level, although the authorities latterly claim to have 'solved' such fan disorder. Upon the national stage, some argue football's social and political impacts have been markedly more pernicious, in being a dubious receptacle for the tartan-coated 'sub-nationalism' of a nation still denied a protective State. Therefore, this thesis examines the culture of these two particular, polarised categories of Scottish football fans, namely the contemporary hooligans (the 'soccer casuals') and the national team's supporters (the carnival or ambassadorial 'Tartan Army'). The thesis draws heavily upon qualitative fieldwork with these supporter groups, undertaken over the course of five years (1990-1994). To achieve this, the thesis is divided into three parts. The first part contextualises the discussion, by looking at previous explanations of football hooliganism and the extent to which these fit with initial evidence from the opposing, Scottish fan cultures. The second and third parts then introduce sustained fieldwork and analyses of these supporter groups.

Cardiff City fans : a sociological explanation of their involvement in football cultures and football violenceWhatley, Jason January 2011 (has links)
This research aims to provide an accurate and more conceptually advanced view of football violence as practiced by Cardiff City fans both past and present, than the accepted views of football already available at an academic level. Expanding on work carried out at dissertation level, the research will attempt to provide a new model of football violence, and this will be constructed through the use of a variety of research methods to better understand football hooliganism as a socio-cultural phenomenon existing within the general field of football. Football as a field of activity will be discussed, as will the fact that whilst being a field of socio-cultural activity, professional football also has developed as a distinct market. The work aims to show why certain Cardiff City F.C. fans are not content to just watch their team participate, but who through a small leap of imagination cast themselves in the role of direct participant representing the team in the contest that is football hooliganism. Also to be discussed is why certain fans (usually at a formative age) would see those with a hooligan identity at Cardiff City F.C. as best representing their interests within the field, and who then go on to adopt a hooligan identity. The interests of Cardiff City fans within the field are explored, as are the specific set of social relations that have emerged. The emergence of the casuals as a socio-cultural category is examined as is media representations of them and in a reflexive manner the role of the police within the field is also examined. Finally the research aims to show how a group such as the Soul Crew, has by a combination of continued presence and growth within the field, gone on to become one of the dominant forces within the activity.

‘n Psigo-opvoedkundige benadering tot die belewing van aggressie deur sekondêre leerlinge in ‘n hokkiespanMynhardt, Marizaan 03 March 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Educational Psychology) / Violence and aggression is a worldwide phenomenon in the sports industry, especially in team sports like hockey. Scant research has been done on the topic, namely how players of a team sport like hockey, experience aggression. This research aims to explore and describe secondary school learners' experiences of aggression in a sport like hockey. On the basis of the results, guidelines and recommendations were made to facilitate them in dealing with the aggression in the right ways. A qualitative, exploratory, descriptive and contextual research design was used. Data was collected by means of semi-structured interviews, observations and field notes. Tesch's (1990) method for data analysis was used and a consensus discussion held with an independent coder. The uniqueness of this study is the exploration and description of secondary school students' experiences of aggression in a hockey team. The results clearly show that aggression is experienced on a regular basis during training or playing a game. The contributory factors include that aggression in hockey is experienced as a positive or negative incentive to achieve certain goals in the game, the coach's handling of spectators’ influence, and characteristics that contribute to hockey being a sport for discharging stress. The consequences of the aggression to players are emotional, psychological and physical in nature. It takes the form of fear, anger, frustration, powerlessness, helplessness and hopelessness. Further consequences are players’ absence from practices and games, the development of an I-do-not-care attitude and injuries. Guidelines for the managing of this phenomenon and recommendations for future research are described.
