 The Relationship Between The Family's
Participation in Sports And The Orientation of Their Children to Elite Sports

Summary

A person’s life from birth until
death passes by in a family. For many people, family is among the most
important institutions in their lives. The family also has a vital importance
in the perpetuity, continuity, and participation of society because it is an
environment in which all children and youths spend the first years of their
lives. Because of this, the family is a universal and fundamental institution,
although its structure and form changes, in all societies. Family teaches
children as the place where their process of socialization begins the values
and norms of both society and the family. At the end of this process, the child
encounters as the product of both the society and family in which they reside
and live. In other words, the family has a central role in the transfer of
cultural capital. The structure, status, and cultural capital of the family
reflects on all cultural practices of the children. Therefore, it is possible
to see the effects of family in sports, an important cultural practice. 


There is a strong relationship
between sports and the institution of family. A series of elements,
particularly the participation of the parents in sports, the sports they play,
their purposes for playing sports, and their expectations from sports, reflect
directly on the child, and the child’s relationship with sports forms in this
framework. 


This study
structurally-functionally evaluates the relationship of family and sports. And
in this framework, the family preserves the importance particularly in terms of
the function of socialization, for both society and its members. The attitudes,
outlooks, and interests of the parents directly affects children. This study
also evaluated Bourdieu’s concept of cultural capital and observed the direct
effects on children of the cultural capital that the family possesses. The
reflections of this can be observed in sports as a cultural practice. This
study is important because of this in terms of revealing through sports both
that the family is an important institution whose influences maintain over
present members and how determinative the family’s cultural capital is. It is a
phenomenon that has emerged with many studies that have a direct relationship
between the sport of parents and their children's participation in sports. 


The aim of this study is to find
out how those who do sports and who do not do what they do in the face of their
children's desire to be an athlete at elite level. The research was conducted
in Istanbul. In the study, which was applied to 1000 people, 570 of which were
engaged in sports and 430 of which were non-athletes, the data were collected
by the researcher with a survey with random sampling method. Findings obtained
in this study are presented as cross tables. A high level of significant
relationship was found between the status of sports and the children's desire
to be athletes at the elite level. According to the findings of the research,
the rate of children who want to be athletes at the elite level is very
satisfied, the rate of those who say is 77.5% for those who do sports and 69.4%
for those who do not do sports. The rate of those who did not mind was found to
be 13.5% in the sports group and 21% in the non-sports group. According to another
research finding, there is no significant difference between those who say that
the rate of those who say that they are opposed is 2.5% while the ones who do
not do sports are 3.3%. When we evaluate the results in general, it is seen
that sportsmen or parents have more or less directed their children to sports
or that their children support elite athletes. The fact that the rate of those
who do not mind in the same way is lower than that in the sportsmen shows that
the sports families are encouraging their children to participate more in
sports. Based on the findings of the research, a highly significant
relationship emerged between the status of a family playing sports and
children’s inclination to play elite sports. This means that the hypothesis for
which we formed a relationship at this high level is supported. Based on this,
it is seen that parents who themselves play sports are more encouraging of
their children to do elite sports or are more supportive of their children to
be athletes at the elite level than parents who do not. These results clearly
reveal the effect of the family in both the process of socialization and the
transfer of cultural capital. 


As a result, it is seen that
family is among the most important institutions for both society and
individuals. Family conveys societal norms, values, traditions and customs, and
culture to the individual and captures attention with its properties of
providing societal continuity and being a secure port for individuals. The fact
that the family is the institution in which socialization first begins and the
sole environment in which cultural capital is transferred is the most
fundamental indicator of the extent to which it is important for society and
individuals. These characteristics of the family directly affect the
individuals that live within them.















Consequently, children who are in
a position of receiver in the early years of life are socialized by their
families and engage in society as the carriers of the family’s cultural
capital. Sports, as one of the indicators of a family’s cultural capital, is
transferred to children in this process of acculturation. In other words, the
status of exercise in a family, perspective, expectations, and goals for sports
and similar matters are as determinative as the manner in which and purposes
for which a child participates in sports.
