The social scientific exploration of sporting practice has paid limited attention to the spaces and places involved in physical activity. The environmental dimensions of sport have been largely ignored, and when they have been brought to our attention, it is largely the built environment that takes center stage. The purpose of this volume is to expose the importance of thinking about 'natural' environments as additional key components in the quest by social scientists of both sport and environment to more completely understand both sporting practice and environmental issues.
