most Western democratic nations sees elite sport prioritized in policy processes, and assumptions are that mass sport participation will benefit via a trickle-down effect • Due to the federated structures and regularity of organized sport occurrence, sport networks are characterized by permanency

). Research on societal effects of elite-sports success is scarce (for an overview see Haut, 2014 ), but the existing evidence suggests that assumptions regarding the impact of success are over-generalized.

assumptions within the field, such as the so-called “trickle-down effect,” which, to date, remains unverified, and the infamous “Goldman Dilemma,” which is at the foundation of some of the unfounded fears that many young athletes are using performance-enhancing drugs. What confounds the issue is that

hypothesizing. Through the onset of a development logic, we propose that player talent dispersion has been impacted across all organizations comprising the field while parity at the team level has also been affected. Specifically, we propose a trickle-down effect of player talent dispersion that has directly

citizen frequency of participation post-Olympics ( Kokolakakis et al., 2019 ; Potwarka & Wicker, 2021 ). The so-called trickle-down effect suggests that, although unlikely to inspire sedentary people to get active, hosting Olympic Games can inspire active people to become even more active and the

of PA in the classroom. These findings suggest a trickle-down effect beginning with teachers’ satisfaction with their own historical physical education experiences (when they were K-12 students, themselves), leading to feeling competent about PA in general. This competence leads to being more

Within sport, researchers have argued that women bring new and different perspectives and ideas to the boardroom and improve the atmosphere of meetings ( Pfister, 2010 ), as well as creating a trickle-down effect resulting in more
