青年人已被确定为一个关键的目标群体,对他们来说,参加体育运动和体育活动可能对健康和福祉有重要的好处,因此,在联合王国,青年人一直是政府提高参与率的几项政策的重点。生活方式体育是鼓励和维持青年群体新的体育和身体活动的战略之一,但是,目前对在政策范围内利用这些活动缺乏了解。本文介绍了一项政府倡议,旨在增加参与体育运动的年轻人,通过提供山地自行车在英格兰东南部的森林设施的调查结果。对40名在案例研究地点参加山地自行车运动的年轻人进行的定性研究的结果突出了非传统体育的重要性,这是通过健康,积极和吸引他们身份的消费形式体验自然环境的一种手段。此外,然而,该文件提出了一些个人和社会群体的计划的可及性,以及将体育这是固有的参与者为主导的国家管理的计划的能力的问题。山地自行车等生活方式运动涉及不同的参与形式,这对寻求建立和维持可持续的青年参与者社区的决策者来说是一个挑战。
Young people have been identified as a key target group for whom participation in sport and physical activity could have important benefits to health and well-being and consequently have been the focus of several government policies to increase participation in the UK. Lifestyle sports represent one such strategy for encouraging and sustaining new engagements in sport and physical activity in youth groups, however, there is at present a lack of understanding of the use of these activities within policy contexts. This paper presents findings from a government initiative which sought to increase participation in sport for young people through provision of facilities for mountain biking in a forest in south-east England. Findings from qualitative research with 40 young people who participated in mountain biking at the case study location highlight the importance of non-traditional sports as a means to experience the natural environments through forms of consumption which are healthy, active and appeal to their identities. In addition, however, the paper raises questions over the accessibility of schemes for some individuals and social groups, and the ability to incorporate sports which are inherently participant-led into state-managed schemes. Lifestyle sports such as mountain biking involve distinct forms of participation which present a challenge for policy-makers who seek to create and maintain sustainable communities of youth participants.
