This book explores the diverse landscape of sport migration across various sports, examining how cultural significance and the global hierarchy shape migration patterns, networks, and decisions. The Czech Republic boasts a rich sporting heritage that traces back to the Sokol movement and has been significantly influenced by the YMCA. Sport migration continues to increasingly shape the country’s sporting culture today. Focusing on the cultural primary sports of ice hockey and football, the secondary sports of basketball and volleyball, and the developing sport of baseball, this book examines the impacts of migration on athletes, national federations, teams, and fans. Based on over twenty years of ethnographic research, the author employs multiple methodologies to examine this phenomenon of globalization, including the historical, political, economic, and sporting system contexts that influence these multi-directional global flows. Each chapter employs different methodologies to analyze migration and its effects, providing valuable insights for future researchers.
