The present study focused on the behavior of the ball at the time of the stroke in soft tennis, and it aimed at exploring the relations of many kinematic values at impact, and the flight behavior of the ball, while checking whether there might be an abnormal flight behavior. The flight of the ball was videotaped by three sets of video cameras, and the ball at impact was videotaped with two high speed cameras. The behaviors of these balls were analyzed. These experiments investigated the conditions of the flights of soft tennis balls, both when given a lift from an applied drive rotation and when given a sinking flight from a slice rotation. It was suggested that the difference in rate of spin given by a stroke influenced the abnormal flight behavior of a soft tennis ball, and also that when there was drive rotation or slice rotation of 40rps or more, the possibility of abnormal flight behavior occurring was high.

The purpose of this article was to introduce the role and importance of physical literacy in Canadian Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) and physical education, and to consider the applicability of physical literacy in Japanese athlete development and physical education.    Physical literacy can be described as “the motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to value and take responsibility for engagement in physical activities for life”. The concept is recognized as the foundation for LTAD. However, the effectiveness of LTAD and physical literacy have not been made clear because there has been no concrete measurement.     On the other hand, in a physical education setting, recent studies have recommended the assessment of outcomes of physical education by the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy (CAPL). If the reliability and validity of CAPL is confirmed, further studies are expected to procced in the fields of LTAD and physical education.     In conclusion, there are a lot of research subjects within LTAD and physical education settings, while the attention to physical literacy is increasing. Therefore, the applicability of physical literacy in Japanese athlete development and physical education needs to be considered with careful attention to future research trends. In addition, the discussion on sharing the goal of developing physical literacy between athlete development and physical education is one of the important issues.

The purpose of this study was to examine the business model of sports tourism utilized by the South Korean walking trail "Jeju Olle", leading to social change not only domestically but also internationally. Jeju Olle was opened in 2007 and currently it offers 26 courses (totaling 425 km). From 2011 to 2014, over a million Korean walkers rushed to Jeju, causing a walking tour boom. Jeju Olle has changed the leisure-time activities, regional economy, and policies of Korea and it is spreading to Kyushu Olle and Mongol Olle. Ms. Myung-sook Suh, the founder of Jeju Olle, serves as the president of the Jeju Olle Foundation, a non-profit organization (NPO) that operates without dependence on administrational subsidies. The NPO succeeded in transforming an old country road into a fashionable trail decorated with a gentle feminine sensibility that has become known as the "Olle" brand. The NPO’s business operates on revenue from membership fees, company sponsorships, and sales of original brand products and it is supported by a large number of volunteers. Thus, it is a sustainable business model made possible by its financial independence, enthusiastic followers, and brand image, based on female sensibilities and flexibility, and it represents a new global approach to health promotion.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the perception regarding TAIKAN (which means the trunk or torso, including the core) exercise training among young adults. A questionnaire-based survey was performed on university students (n = 236) to clarify the relationships between exercise habits, perception of TAIKAN training exercise, and frequency of implementation of the same. The participants, who exercised regularly (30 or more min per day, 2 or more days per week, and maintaining this for more than 1 year) , had a higher proportion of understanding of TAIKAN than the participants who did not exercise. However, even most of the participants who did not exercise were aware of the word TAIKAN. The participants who exercised regularly performed TAIKAN training at a high frequency, even if they did not understand the meaning of TAIKAN. Furthermore, among the participants who understood TAIKAN, 20-30% consciously train their upper arm or thigh muscles, and 10% train their forearm or lower thigh muscles. These results suggest that although awareness of the word TAIKAN was high, regardless of presence or absence of exercise habits, its meaning might not be properly understood. Therefore, to enhance the effect of training, it is important to instruct people in the correct way of performing TAIKAN training exercises.

The Local Authority Act of Japan was revised in September 2003 in order to reduce the costs and improve the quality of public services. As a result of the Act, all local authorities had to introduce CCT for public sports facilities by September 2006. The aim of this research was to clarify the change in the number of full-time employees in public sports facilities before and after the introduction of CCT. The pre-CCT data were collected in March 2005 and the post-CCT data were collected in September 2007. In total, 333 respondents in both 2005 and 2007 were asked to complete the questionnaire. The mean number of full-time employees was significantly higher after the introduction of CCT than before it.

Ski boots are generally important for assisting progress in ski turn technique as an interface between a skier and a ski. This study is aimed at developing a new ski boot that can improve the results of alpine ski races for Japanese players. In this paper, a new design of a ski boot that is adjusted to the features of the frame of Japanese athletes was experimentally examined. As a result, it was demonstrated that the front part of the upper shell of a ski boot should be lower and the rear part should be higher than the normal upper shell for providing well-balanced quick leaning of the leg in the ski turn. Finally, the effect of the new upper shell was verified in giant slalom and slalom test by Japanese alpine ski players of the first rank.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact of the Japanese professional baseball industry on the regional economy. In the 21st century, the shift from political centralization to decentralization seems to be promoted, and local governments are expected to bear a large responsibility for the regional economy. On the other hand, many kinds of sports are regarded as encouraging regional economic growth. This paper shows, by input-output analysis, that the Japanese professional baseball industry makes a significant contribution to the regional economy. In this paper, we investigate four issues in the Japanese professional baseball industry and estimate the effect of each on the economy; the strike, new establishment of team, interleague play between the Pacific and the Central leagues, the economic impact of the victory of Hanshin Tigers. First, the economic loss of the strike is estimated at 3.3 billion yen for two days, and 10.3 billion yen for one month. Second, the economic gain of the new establishment of a team in Miyagi Prefecture is about 13.6 billion. Third, the earnings from the interleague play between the Pacific and the Central leagues is about 5.9 billion in total. According to our calculation, the Pacific league will earn 2.8 billion, and the Central league will lose 0.2 billion. Lastly, the economic impact of the victory of Hanshin Tigers team on the Kansai economy is estimated at 148.1 billion yen in 2003, and 64.3 billion yen in 2005. This economic impact of the Hanshin Tigers team on the regional economy is much bigger than that of other teams. Many local governments are eager to attract many kinds of enterprises to encourage economic growth. Nevertheless, we showed that attracting baseball teams and other kinds of sports clubs is also useful to encourage economic growth in the region.

This study aims to examine the structure of the corporal punishment-related factor and to explore predictors of corporal punishment behavior through a nationwide survey. A questionnaire survey was administered to teachers of athletic club activities working at Japanese junior high and high schools (337 valid responses from 39 prefectures) . Items of the corporal punishment-related factor scale, basic attributes, experiences of corporal punishment behavior, and experiences of feeling likely to use corporal punishment comprised the survey’s content. The scale’s items were scored from 1 to 5 points; the higher the scale score, the greater the awareness of the corporal punishment-related factor. An exploratory factor analysis (maximum likelihood method, Promax rotation) was conducted to examine factor structure. Covariance structure analysis was then conducted to examine the relationship between extracted corporal punishment–related factors and the experiences of corporal punishment behavior. (1) Results of factor analysis revealed 26 items associated with five factors: I) “teacher’s policy and beliefs”, Ⅱ) “unachieved goals of students and team”, Ⅲ) “teacher’s view of victory’s importance”, Ⅳ) “pressure to win the game” and V) “negative attitudes of students”. Reliability examination and Cronbach’s alpha coefficients confirmed the scale’s internal consistency. Additionally, subscale items’ factor loadings confirmed the simple structure, and factor validity was generally confirmed based on categories of corporal punishment–related factors from previous studies. (2) Results of analysis of covariance structure indicated that “teacherʼs policy and beliefs” and “teacher’s view of victory’s importance” might predict corporal punishment behavior. Additionally, this study found that pressure to win the game may be the cause of corporal punishment behavior. The results of this analysis could be used to assess corporal punishment–related factors that teachers perceive in athletic club activities.

The purpose of this study was to compare the time from first base to second base between bent-leg sliding run and run-through run. The subjects were 11 uninjured college baseball players. Running time from first base to second base and 10 m passing time were measured. There were no significant differences in either the time to pass 10 m or the time to reach second base for each running method. The results of this study suggest that neither method of base running from first to second base produced faster results and therefore both methods can be accepted.

In this study, we examined organizational responses to the commercialization of high school sporting events. Based on press releases and information obtained from the High School Athletic Federation, we analyzed the social factors that influenced the decisions of the federation, which focuses on summer high school sporting events and has comprehensively unified such events in a move toward commercialization. Results have revealed that the commercialization of high school sporting events, led by the All Japan High School Athletic Federation, has been accompanied by organizational responses such as the introduction of corporate and bib sponsorship and foundation incorporation (including incorporation into public foundations). Since the implementation of sponsorship funding in 1993, interscholastic athletic events’ operating expenses have been party financed by private companies. In 2001, the organization’s focus changed from volunteering to providing an environment that facilitates organizational responses and the receipt of sponsorship funds. In 2009, a bib sponsor with a strong business background was introduced on a trial basis, and interscholastic athletic events were finally established in 2010 by expanding the range of activities.

This paper describes the dynamics of Japanese bows and arrows. In "kyudo" (Japanese archery), archers twist the grip at the moment of shooting, to avoid the "archers' paradox" which is a change of trajectory of the arrow caused by the structure of the bow and the arrow. To investigate the relation between the trajectory of an arrow and the twisting force on the grip, we proposed a dynamic model simplifying three rigid limbs and two elastic hinge. And we made an experimental apparatus that can give a force to twist the grip, and performed a shooting experiment. We measured with a strain gauge the twisting force on the grip, the tension of the string, bending moment at the center of arrow, and the compressive force of the neck. After that, we performed a computer simulation with the model we suggested and compared its result with the result of the experiment. As a result of comparison we proved that the tendency of computer simulation is consistent with the experiment. Then using this model, we investigated the relation between the twisting force and the trajectory of an arrow. As a result of simulation, twisting force is shown to be specially important during the term from taking a stance to the beginning of the shooting.

The sports participation rate, which indicates the exercise habits of people, has increased significantly in the last 30 years. According to the survey of household economy, the ratio of sports admission fees to education and entertainment expenses is on the rise. Then, how much has the sports spectating rate, which indicates whether or not a person spectated at sports events at least once a year, increased? In this study, we investigated whether the increase in the spectating rate could be confirmed by macro data. The data was secondarily obtained from the “National Sports-Life Survey” and “National Sports-Life Survey of Children and Young People” conducted by the Sasakawa Sports Foundation, and the ratios of respondents who had spectated some kind of sports in the last year were aggregated and compared by survey year. To evaluate the significance of difference in each survey year, Kruskal-Wallis test and Bonferroni correction were used. As a result of the investigation, a significant increase in the spectating rate was observed from 1994 to 2010 for adults excluding students, and no significant decrease was confirmed thereafter. On the other hand, for professional baseball (NPB) and soccer (J-League), there was no increasing trend in the spectating rate. This suggested that the absolute number of spectators is small compared to the whole population in Japan. Although sports admission fees have increased due to the repeaters, from the viewpoint of the spectating rate, even if the number of spectators at one event increases, it gives small impact on the spectating rate of the whole, as long as the venues are in a biased location. In order to increase the number of spectators, it is important that various events be held in various areas.

In recent years, regional migration has become an important policy theme in Japan from the perspectives of correcting the concentration of population in Tokyo and regional revitalization. Based on the previous studies, not only public policies and institutions but also the “social capital” of the destination region and migrants are considered important to promote migration and support migrants. On the other hand, fans and supporters of community-based professional sports clubs have high social capital, suggesting that they may play a new public role as social public goods. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the use of J. League clubs to promote immigration and support immigrants. Based on interviews with people who have immigrated to rural areas and people involved with J. League clubs, etc., it was considered that the following elements are important to promote and support migration: “community” and “human resources” to connect migrants to local informal networks, and “place” and “content” to expand such opportunities. In particular, the problem is how to procure communities and human resources with “bridging social capital”. On the other hand, it was suggested that supporters of J. League clubs and their communities have bridging social capital, which could be a potential management resource for the development of migration support mechanisms. Based on the above findings and analysis, the authors proposed a “J. League Clubs’ Authorized Welcome Café”, operated in collaboration with J. League Clubs, supporters, and local governments to promote regional migration and support migrants at the “Sports Policy for Japan 2020”, a conference on sports policy conducted by university students held in November 2020. The café will be a “place where anyone can stop by casually”, including not only soccer fans but also local residents and prospective immigrants. If the social capital of J Club supporters can function as a “bridge”, such cafes have the potential to reach a wide range of people. One of the important findings of this study is the potential of J-club fans/supporters to become a management resource for the community when viewed from the perspective of social capital. These findings may be applicable not only to the promotion of migration, but also to the solution of various local issues.

In recent years, social demands and academic interest in the environmental and social contribution activities of professional sports clubs have increased. This is due to the spread of the idea that building good relationships with various stakeholders is essential for clubs to enhance their corporate value. However, it is not easy for professional sports clubs to continuously implement sustainable environmental initiatives (ESI) due to the financial burden. It is unclear to what extent consumers are aware of the ESI implemented by professional sports clubs and how much they are willing to spend afterwards, and there are no studies on ESI by professional sports clubs in Japan. Furthermore, it is significant and extremely important to clarify the results of ESI conducted by professional sports clubs on their teams from a marketing perspective. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between consumer attitudes and behavioral intentions toward professional sports clubs that conduct ESI. To achieve the objective, stakeholder theory and social identity theory are applied as a theoretical background to examine the impact of perceived ESI on intention to support a club and intention to attend a game. Data were obtained from a sample that included potential as well as existing consumers, and it was found that the perception of ESI influenced the intention to support a club and the intention to attend a game. The results of the multiple-group structural equation modeling revealed that the perception of ESI influenced the intention to support a club and the intention to attend a game, even among consumers who had no experience of attending a game. In the future, it will be necessary to elucidate the mechanism and causal relationship by which the perception of ESI enhances intentional loyalty, through what kind of psychological process.

There have been some quantitative studies about the economic impact of professional sports teams on local regions, but there hasn’ t been any study in Japan that quantified the value, including the intangible or public goods value of a professional sports team, for a city. The objective of this paper was to estimate the money value, including intangible value, of a professional sports team for a city by using CVM (Contingent Valuation Method) and to find if the evaluation of the public goods aspect of a professional sport team by local residents has a positive effect on WTP (willingness to pay) . We selected the Japanese professional baseball team “A” and conducted CVM surveys in “B” city in which “A” team locates its home stadium. We estimated that the value of “A” team for “B” city is 141~341 million yen minimum, and 488~1,175 million yen maximum for a year and the present value as 2.4~5.9 billion yen minimum and 8.4~20.3 billion yen maximum. And we found that the evaluation of the public goods aspect of a professional sports team by local residents has a positive effect on WTP.
