3. Major Sport Stadia, Water Resources and Climate Change : Impacts and Adaptation
abstractResearch Question: This paper explores the impact of climate change on major Australian sport stadia, and organizational responses. Specifically, we explore how climate change impacts the water resources used at such stadia, and implications for the organizations managing this critical sport infrastructure.Research Methods: We adopted a qualitative case study method focusing on organizations that own and/or manage major sport stadia. Data were collected primarily through semi-structured interviews with participants representing 12 of Australia’s 14 major sport stadiums. Data were analysed using an interpretive process, and themes were developed relating to geo-physical, commercial and regulatory impacts, and adaptive responses.Results and Findings: The analysis identified six climate change issues pertaining to water resources: (a) reduced rainfall, (b) increased evaporation from playing surfaces (c) water supply restrictions and other regulation, (d) higher water supply costs, (e) capital costs for water management infrastructure, and (f) negative public perceptions of high water consumption. The three organizational water management strategies were: (a) water-harvesting, (b) water-storage, and (c) water recycling. These strategies are indicative of adaptation responses to climate impacts. Implications: Given the long-term nature of climate change, and the proliferation of water-related public policy activity in recent years, stadium organizations will likely benefit from including climate change and adaptation in their strategic thinking

4. Managing Multi-Purpose Leisure Facilities in a Time of Climate Change
abstractIn this paper, we examine the ways in which multi-purpose leisure facilities (MPLFs) – being pivotal places for delivering aquatic, exercise, and indoor sport programmes – have responded to the climate change problem. The study was framed by a resource-based view of organisations which theorises that the capacity for effective responses will be dependent upon the breadth and quality of the resources available for strategy formulation and implementation. Using an intensive case study methodology, two distinct MPLFs in Melbourne, Australia, were targeted for the analysis. It was found that while the managers of each facility were aware of the climate change problem, the preparedness to initiate change in response to shifting weather patterns – either through mitigation or adaptation – was more pronounced for the facility that had a strong base of ‘environmental knowledge resources’. Additionally, these resources were used to pursue mainly adaptation strategies that included more efficient electric power use and frugal water use
