Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to define the relationship between the promotion of community sport and social network. Results of the study suggest that it may be possible to promote community sport using social network. Participants of community sport club may be able to raise social capital by social network in community. Sport club within communities can network with other organizations cross-sectorally such as welfare organizations. I believe from now on, we need to implement longitudinal research methods in this study.
