Recenzje

"This book is an excellent source for novice sport management students as it provides a link between community sport programs and for-profit sport management initiatives. I highly recommend that instructors consider adopting this text for their introductory sport and recreation management courses worldwide." - Velina B. Brackebusch, St. Mary’s College of California, USA, International Journal of Sport Communication
