Malmö högskola, Faculty of Education and Society (LS), Department of Sport Sciences (IDV).
2013 (English)In: Soccer & Society, ISSN 1466-0970, E-ISSN 1743-9590, Vol. 14, no 6, p. 834-849Article in journal (Refereed)
Abstract [en]

Contemporary incentives arrayed by both international and national organizations show that women’s soccer is one of the fastest growing venues for female sports in Europe at the moment and that women’s soccer is undergoing significant development. Addressing what kind of opportunities and challenges women’s soccer might be facing, whilst being influenced by developmental aspects, seems to be a justified and important question. The intention of this article is to illustrate how developmental opportunities and challenges within women’s soccer can be viewed upon whilst revising the Swedish soccer club LdB FC Malmö’s approach for attaining a prosperous position in a Swedish soccer context. The article views LdB FC Malmö’s history and tactical approach from a brand management vantage point. An overall conclusion stresses that there is significance in how identity and values are being communicated which ultimately might have an impact on how developmental strengthening aspects are being encountered and implemented.
