The fifth edition of Social Issues in Sport provides updated content and fresh perspectives on critical issues in sport, making it an invaluable resource for students, educators, and professionals. It delves into current trends in sport and examines complex ways that sport interconnects with politics, economics, religion, race, gender, and more. The textbook is intended for those exploring sport objectively for the first time, aiming to understand the role sport plays in society and in their personal lives.

Updates include the following:

New statistics on youth sport participation and trends in youth team sports, including a new focus on mental health and coach training
Examinations of high-profile coaching scandals, deviant behavior, and violence in sport, as well as strategies for promoting fair play and ethical conduct
Conversations surrounding the importance of diversity and inclusion and efforts to address racial and economic disparities, visibility of women's sports, and gender issues in sport
Information on the increasing attention given to NIL policies
Advancements in adaptive sport technology and inclusive fitness programs

The text's approachable presentation style, full-color design, and ample learning tools are designed to stimulate critical thinking and enhance student engagement. To enrich the reading experience, students will find learning objectives, chapter introductions, key terms, chapter summaries, discussion questions, and engaging sidebars throughout the text. New to this edition are interviews with seasoned sport professionals, providing practical real-world insights on a variety of topics.
