Reviews:

'The sports development profession, in the form we know it today, is relatively young. To date the debates about its theoretical and philosophical underpinning have been largely confined to a range of ad hoc papers and documents. This book represents, therefore, a watershed in the history of the sector in that it brings together the work of a group of senior lecturers from Leeds Metropolitan University and provides an important single point of reference for the subject'.
Derrick Anderson, Chief Executive, Wolverhampton Metropolitan Borough Council

'The book provides a stimulating account of sports development as policy and practice, and represents one of the few comprehensive contributions in this important area of sports development.'
Professor Ian P Henry, Institute of Sport and Leisure Policy, Department of PE, Sports Science and Recreation Management, Loughborough University
