Sport Management

Grey literature databases identify resources that are key to research and scholarship. Many are open resources that go through a quality control process before they are published. 

Definitions are scholarly dictionaries, encyclopedias and handbooks that help define terms and provide additional context. Routledge provides an amazing number of handbooks on sport policy, ethnicity, politics...
