Managing Sport Facilities


For many sports fans, attending a sporting event is about more than just watching the action unfold. It’s a chance to immerse themselves in the sights, sounds, and smells of the venue. Whether it’s a multibillion-dollar stadium or a high school gymnasium, each facility’s success is a result of meticulous planning, innovative design, strategic marketing, diligent maintenance, and effective management of operations and human resources. When all these factors align, fans leave with cherished memories, regardless of the game’s outcome. Managing Sport Facilities, Fifth Edition With HKPropel Access, exposes students to the many duties of sport facility managers and primes them for the responsibilities of the job. Merging historical and theoretical foundations with real-world challenges, the text features insights from a diverse group of professionals who offer perspectives on a variety of topics, spanning systems and operations, maintenance, and environmentally friendly practices. Endorsed by the Stadium Managers’ Association, this updated edition is now in full color and places a greater emphasis on what facility managers and staff do on a daily basis and how venues are managed. To this end, a new chapter on systems management has been added, covering critical infrastructure such as plumbing, electrical systems, fire protection, life safety, communications, sound, and security. Additionally, a new chapter focusing on technology used in sports venues addresses lighting systems, scoreboard operation, concessions, and electronic ticketing. The fifth edition offers students expanded opportunities for hands-on application of the material. Related online resources, delivered via HKPropel, include new and updated projects and case studies, encouraging students to apply fundamental concepts in real-world scenarios: An updated case study, Gil’s Sportsplex, incorporates strategic planning, construction, financial analysis, and more. End-of-chapter assignments combine to form a semester-long project related to the construction or renovation of a sports facility. A crowd management certification can be obtained by watching a series of videos on this crucial skill and passing a short quiz. Day in the Life bonus content asks students to create a day planner for an event. A catalog of YouTube videos provides virtual tours and instructive information for students. Other learning aids include flash card activities to review key terms. Within the text, Facility Focus sections and Behind the Scenes sidebars provide facility management insights and professional advice for facility managers. With Managing Sport Facilities, students will receive a wealth of practical knowledge, best practices, and professional advice to equip them to make decisions in all areas of facility management.

Petty vs. Pearson


Get the detailed inside story on the legendary rivalry that helped propel NASCAR from regional curiosity to national phenomenon.The battle for NASCAR dominance was never more pronounced than when Richard Petty and David Pearson met on the track. In 551 head-to-head races between 1960 and 1986, they finished one-two an astounding 63 times (Pearson won 33, Petty 30). Each showdown attracted more media attention and new fans, helping the sport to evolve evermore rapidly.Petty vs. Pearson is the only book to examine this storied relationship, beginning with their pre-Winston Cup careers. Award-winning motorsports journalist Mike Hembree details:The drivers’ backgrounds—Petty earning his way up through a racing dynasty led by his father Lee; Pearson honing his skills as a DIY racer on local South Carolina dirt tracks Their first meeting in a Cup event, in 1960The memorable battles, including their legendary wild finish at the 1976 Daytona 500Parallel careers that coincided with seismic changes to NASCAR: the advent of superspeedways, the “aero wars,” the injection of corporate money, and a new generation of star drivers in the 1980sWhile their rivalry produced amazing finishes and tense moments, Petty and Pearson were friends throughout. Petty vs. Pearson examines that relationship, including their retirements in 1986 (Pearson) and 1992 (Petty) and their lives in NASCAR beyond the driver’s seat. Throughout the riveting text, Hembree draws on original interviews with both drivers (including interviews conducted with Petty in early 2024), those who witnessed the rivalry, and NASCAR figures who came later. The result is an entertaining and essential account of two storied drivers—and friends—who bridged NASCAR’s rollicking early years and the sophisticated entertainment concern it is today.Featuring a foreword by Terry Labonte, a legendary driver in his own right, Petty vs. Pearson is a must-have for every fan’s collection.

The Knockout


Swift, brutal and utterly final: with knockouts, there are no grey areas; a KO is a KO. But what actually is a knockout, and why are we so fascinated by it?The Knockout is the most dramatic and devastating moment in sport. There is nothing to rival it: not the last-second goal, not the basket on the buzzer, not the putt that drops on the eighteenth green. In terms of its brutality and finality, it stands alone. It''s a bolt of lightning; fascinating and frightening; a shot of pure adrenaline that only the very rarest moments can provide. This book examines what it''s like for the people at the centre of that storm.How does it feel to land that ultimate blow?

Superveloce


Silverstone, 1950 – the first post-war Grand Prix and the birth of Formula One. The king and queen, alongside 150,000 spectators, watch in dismay as Italy’s Alfa Romeos scream past to claim the first three places. British cars are hopelessly outclassed by Alfa Romeos and Maseratis. How can it be, they all wonder, that Italy, its industry reduced to rubble by Allied bombs so recently, has set new standards of speed and style that leave the rest of the world for dust?   Italy’s ability to outflank its more powerful and better-equipped neighbours is nothing new. At the turn of the century Italy made so few cars that its output wasn’t recorded, by 1907 Italian cars and drivers swept the board in the first Grand Prix season. In Superveloce, Peter Grimsdale explores the mystery of how a country with no industrial revolution, hampered by poverty, came to represent an innovation and flair that other countries struggled to match.   Grimsdale traces a century of Italian design genius, the rise of great marques such as Ferrari, Fiat and Alfa Romeo. We see the lives of fiercely charismatic and competitive drives like Ascari, Varzi and Nuvolari. Does the secret lie deep in Italy’s cultural heritage – in historic links between art and machine going back to da Vinci? Or is it simply ‘sprezzatura’ – the art of making something difficult look effortlessly easy?

The Man Who Kept The Red Flag Flying: Jimmy Murphy


This updated, family authorised biography of Manchester United hero Jimmy Murphy, new to paperback, celebrates the career of the man who managed the club after the Munich air disaster and took charge of Wales at the 1958 World Cup. Alongside Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex Ferguson, nobody in the long history of Manchester United is as important as Jimmy Murphy. As legendary Manchester United manager Busby lay in an oxygen tent in his hospital bed, recovering from the horror of the Munich plane crash, he clutched the friend of his close friend and faithful right-hand-man Murphy. Murphy stepped into Busby’s shoes and answered United’s call in their hour of need. More than that, he provided the spark which would see a phoenix spectacularly rise from the flames. Murphy would be at Busby’s side as the club famously conquered England and Europe, driven by a new generation of Babes. Murphy would remain United’s assistant manager up to 1971, going on to become a club scout, unearthing and recruiting famous talents like Gordon Hill and Steve Coppell. In his other role as Wales’ football manager, he would mastermind his country’s appearance in the World Cup finals – taking Wales to the brink of the semi-finals in 1958. The Man Who Kept The Red Flag Flying has been written in full cooperation with Murphy’s family, with unique insight from sons Nick and Jimmy Junior. It features contributions and comments from Sir Alex Ferguson, George Best, Tommy Docherty and Ron Atkinson, among many, and rare excerpts from the Daily Mirror and Manchester Evening News archives.

Between the Devil and the Deep


Deep underwater lurks a mysterious man-made illness. It has gone by many names over the years – Satan’s disease, diver’s palsy, the chokes – but today, medics call it decompression sickness. You know it as the bends. In the winter of 2012, British diver Martin Robson joined an expedition to southern Russia which sought to find a submerged cave system never seen by the human eye. On their final day, as Robson attempted to surface after reaching a record depth in the Blue Lake, disaster struck: just seventy-five feet down, he was ambushed by the bends. Forced to gamble on an underwater practice most doctors believe is a suicidal act, he sank back into the water. Soon, his only hope for survival was a dramatic mercy mission organised at the highest levels of the Russian government. Between the Devil and the Deep is the first book to tell the terrifying true story of what it feels like to get the bends, taking you inside the body and mind of a man who suffered the unthinkable. Writer Mark Cowan also explores the fascinating history of decompression sickness, the science behind what causes the disease, and the stories of the forgotten divers who pushed the limits of physical endurance to help find a solution.

LFC Stories


Dan Kay, the iconic journalist and campaigner, was a driving force in the fight for justice following the 1989 Hillsborough disaster, both in his personal life and during more than two decades with the Liverpool ECHO. Dan was central to the wide-ranging coverage relating to the campaign for justice leading to the inquests where a jury determined the 97 innocent men, women and children who lost their lives as a result of the tragedy were unlawfully killed. Throughout his career, Dan penned precisely-crafted and thoroughly captivating player profiles of the biggest characters in Liverpool Football Club history. This book is a loving collection of those profiles capturing the good, the bad, the ugly and the legendary - as well as the inside story of The Transfer That Never Was, featuring Steven Gerrard, Jose Mourinho and John Terry. As well as Bob Paisley, Graeme Souness and a host of other trophy-laden tales, Dan delves deep into the bizarre world of Mario Balotelli and Andy Carroll while explaining why one Champions League winning full-back simply disappeared. The book also includes the story of Craig Johnston, an Australian who went from sleeping in a shed to signing for Liverpool and eventually inventing the best-selling Adidas Predator football boot - all detailed by Dan with an affectionate and detailed prose. The book contains a poignant tribute to those who passed away at Hillsborough, written the same week Liverpool lifted their first-ever Premier League title in 2020. Sir Kenny Dalglish MBE writes a touching foreword in tribute to Dan who died aged 45 in 2023. A share of the proceeds from this title will be donated to the Dan Kay Foundation which aims to tackle stigma around mental health.
