Dear Colleagues
Between June 28th and July 1st 2017, Massey University will be hosting:
The World in Union (New Zealand) Conference
Tackling the Big Issues. Passing on Knowledge. Kicking it Forward.
This event coincides with the New Zealand Lions Series 2017 and follows on from the success of the inaugural "World in Union: Rugby Past, Present and Future" global summit hosted by the University of Brighton in 2015. The conference will take place at the New Zealand Rugby Museum and the Sport & Rugby Institute and will amalgamate an international array of academics, practitioners and educators with expertise in the field of rugby union.
A promotion campaign for the conference is due to launch shortly. This will include a call for abstracts set for release on Monday 5th September, 2016. Abstracts will be invited on the following rugby related themes:
* History
* Social issues
* Nationalism, Culture and Identity
* Sport Development
* Branding
* Sponsorship
* Media and broadcasting
* Coaching
* Volunteers
* Event Management
* Governance
* Performance-enhancement
* Sport nutrition
* Strength & Conditioning
* Education
* Social media
Accepted abstracts will be published in the printed conference proceedings. There will also be opportunity for submission of full papers to be considered for publication in a series of sport management, sport history and sport performance/nutrition special issue journals.
