The SpringerBriefs in Religion and Sport is a refereed online and print publication analyzing the intersections between world religions, religious practice, spirituality, and global sport. Sport is an element of cultures across the globe, and it is imperative that scholars bring their expertise to the topic in order to provide insights about society and the human condition. The Series is a venue for theologians and scholars of religion to interpret and analyze sport phenomena from around the world. The editors of the series seek contributions that take seriously the study of religion and sport as well as scholarship investigating notions of sport as religious or spiritual practice. The series encourages submissions on any sport or sports and from any religious perspective.
