Enhancing Sports Activism and Team Sports Advocacy among Team Sports Athletes in Henan, China

Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 11

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between the level of sports activism and athletic advocacy among team sports athletes. The analysis focuses on various forms of activism, including symbolic, scholarly, grassroots, sport-based, and economic activism, and their correlation with advocacy efforts in areas such as fair play, social justice, and historical successes. The findings reveal that scholarly activism has a significant positive relationship with advocacy for fair play and social justice as well as engagement with historical successes in sports. Grassroots activism also shows a strong correlation with advocacy for fair play and social justice, highlighting the importance of community involvement in driving social change. However, no significant correlation is found between symbolic, sport-based, or economic activism and advocacy, suggesting that these forms of activism may not directly translate into concrete advocacy outcomes. The study concludes that athletes who engage intellectually and at the community level are more likely to advocate for social justice, while symbolic and economic actions, though impactful, may require further integration with broader advocacy strategies to achieve lasting change.
