Strategic Sport Communication: Traditional and Transmedia Strategies for a Global Sports Market

By taking a strategic communication approach, the text integrates public relations, marketing communication, and advertising concepts and tailors them to the particular context of sport communication. Sport communication is a growing focus of students within public relations and strategic communication programs, and this text merges these fields to give students a comprehensive guide to constructing strategic communication efforts in the sports arena. Most books provide a broad overview of sports media and communication or a narrower view of public relations in a sports context; this book broadens the latter’s scope to include marketing and advertising considerations, while still providing a practical guide to creating strategic communication campaigns.
