The area of sports digitalization is very well fitted for the conference theme, as per the famous words of Nelson Mandela: "Sport has the power to change the world." The goal of this track is twofold: (1) to examine how organizations and individuals have approached digitalization and utilized various digital tools across different sporting areas, as well as how digitalization and/or digital technologies changes the practices and the very organization of sports; (2) to investigate the sports context and how this context can contribute to our understanding of digitalization.

Topics for this track include, but are not limited to:

  *   Digitalization, sports and sustainability (e.g., environment, inclusion, peace)
  *   Sports analytics, its use and impacts
  *   Digitalization of sports related (fan) experiences
  *   Digital innovation for sports refereeing or judging
  *   Innovative uses of technologies (e.g., social media, fan tokens, metaverse) for sports fan engagement
