Organizational Culture

Organizational culture is the set of values, beliefs, and standards for acceptable behavior that its members share. Understanding an organization’s culture helps you understand how it functions and how you should do things “to fit in.” Think of “good guy” teams like the Seattle Mariners and “bad guy” teams like the Oakland Raiders.

The sport team culture with which all members voluntarily comply is the total of common faith, morality, spirit, ceremony, intelligence factor, and entertainment life. The function of the sport team culture is found in instructing people, construction of team standards, recovery, spiritual adjustment, and meeting psychological and social demand.”

Title IX

In 1972, a law with wide ramifications for the sport industry, Title IX of the Amendments to the Higher Education Act, was passed. Title IX requires equal access to education, including athletics, for women. Since that time the number of women playing on college teams has increased from 32,000 to about 163,000.

Problems with Title IX
