Chapter Chapter 15 in Management of Sport Organizations at the Crossroad of Responsibility and Sustainability, 2024, pp 173-184 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The chapter aims to provide an overview of sustainable management and operations of sports organizations in the Gambia. Using interviews of three representatives from public, not-for-profit, and for-profit sports organizations, this chapter presents the landscape of sustainable management of sport in the Gambia in the three sectors. The chapter demonstrates the diverse reality that sports organizations operate in the same social setting. In addition, it highlights the opportunities and challenges local sports organizations in developing countries are faced with in their quest to mitigate the effect of sport on the environment and operate in an environmentally friendly way. The burden is almost entirely casted on central government to provide the blueprint and resources to ensure that sports organizations operate in a sustainable way.
