Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

This Statement has two main aims. The first is to affirm the character building potential of both participating in sport and consuming sport as part of a broad culture. The second is to provoke further discussion and deliberation across the spectrum of stakeholders with an interest in character and sport regarding the character building capacity of sport, the specific opportunities and challenges of engaging in particular sports with regards to character development, and the importance of profiling athletes, coaches, and sports men and women as role models of good character.
