Subjects
TENNIS tournaments, KINDERGARTEN, VOLCANIC eruptions, INTIMACY (Psychology), TEACHERS
Abstract

The article presents information on a tennis tournament witnessed by the author while her stay in Japan. Some days after the volcanic eruption, an event took place which allowed her to confirm some of the ideas she had been considering linking language and dress. In the tennis class, she had noticed the informality, but she was unsure whether this might have been an idiosyncrasy of our particular teacher. The event in question was a tennis tournament, organized by the PTA of White Lily Kindergarten, so some of the participants were people she had encountered in a variety of other circumstances. Members of her own tennis class were also attached to the kindergarten through their children, so they were able to anticipate the event at their meetings. As she spent time with them she could observe the way language was subtly coded depending on levels of intimacy and shared understanding. One of her closest friends was married into the hospital family, which was one of the oldest and most prestigious in the town, so she was sometimes quite nervous about occasions which involved public appearances together.

4. Building brands and fan relationships through social media : the case of the Grand Slam tennis events : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sport and Exercise at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand

Abstract

Social media have become pervasive parts of society and modern consumer culture. However, sports scholars have noted a distinct lack of knowledge and understanding related to their use among sports properties. This thesis, through the novel use of a modified circuit of culture framework (du Gay, Hall, Jones, McKay & Negus, 1997) explores how Facebook and Twitter were utilised by the four Grand Slam tennis events (Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon and U.S. Open) to build their brands and relationships with fans. A unique multi-perspectival, multi-method approach involving semi-structured interviews, a content analysis of Facebook and Twitter posts, and online surveys provided rich sources of data. The findings reveal that these events are deliberately and proactively using social media. It is apparent that social media aid in two key functions: (1) a facilitator of socialisation and emotional connections, and (2) a cultivator of brand image and brand experience. Furthermore, two unique challenges were identified: (1) providing value and meeting fan expectations, and (2) organisational adaptability. Importantly, this research has significant practical and scholarly implications, providing one of the first empirical examinations into how social media assist sports event brands in brand management efforts. Social media are shown to be sites that provide opportunities for practitioners to create a quasi-virtual brand experience, representing an online substitute for the live event. This particular aspect represents a unique finding and an aspect that is of particular relevance for sports event brands. In addition, this study was one of the first to employ a multi-method approach, framed within the circuit of culture, in sports-related social media research. The use of this approach revealed the need to modify the circuit of culture with a centralised moment of “prosumption” for future social media related studies. It is proposed that this approach would be transf
