Director ‘Erasmus Center for Sport Integrity & Transition’ (ESPRIT) at Erasmus University Rotterdam NL
Happy to present my analysis on the polarized debate about transgender and non-binary athletes in elite sport. On the one hand, we have a discourse excluding transgender women and non-binary athletes from (elite) sport competition. On the other hand, we see a discourse addressing ‘gender trouble’ in sport, advocating an inclusive approach to these gender categories. How to understand (and overcome) this ongoing polarization in sport practice, -policymaking, -research and -journalism? #sport #gender #fairness #inclusion
📢The first programme overview for our 13th conference is ready. We invite everyone to engage in fact-based and constructive debates on themes that are essential to the future of sport. For more information👉 https://lnkd.in/e_RUuutJ Early bird until 12 November 2023❗ #ptg2024

Just wanted to share my thoughts on here in regards to the current discussion surrounding Riot Games and their approach to their tier 2 scene for Valorant: I don't think anyone is expecting/wanting Riot Games to create a "Tier 2 League" or be hands on with the tier 2 community. However, I think what people DO want is for Riot Games to not cut tier 2 at the knees, by not allow 3rd parties to host events/tournaments/leagues/etc and allow the tier 2 scene develop organically. When Valorant first released back in 2020, the tier 2 teams were thriving along side with the tier 1 teams. Tons of events, KVL (Knights Valorant League) was popping with a plethora of new talent, tons of content creators popped up around esports, it was the golden age of Valorant. In my opinion, we need to do away with this narrative that tier 2 isn't sustainable or cannot do well because its simply not true, and we've seen that to be the case In this very game. Don't believe me? Just look at the Renegades Invitational back in October of 2020. A tournament with a large prize pool that saw a healthy mix of tier 1 and tier 2 teams competing in it. Back then, new and exciting teams/players popped up left, right, and center. https://lnkd.in/ewWsd2fS As a matter of fact, take a look at any tournament around this time and you'll continue to see the same trend. If Riot Games wants Valorant to wear the proverbial crown as "top dog" in esports, then we need to go back to the way things were before. Keep your franchise league, and keeps all your current plans. Riot Games just needs to give their tier 2 scene a fighting chance if they plan for the game to have a long and fruitful future.

'How Breaking at the Paris Olympics will *actually* be judged' In this easy-to-understand video, we breakdown the judging criteria for the Breaking (or 'Breakdance') competition at the Paris Olympics. There will be examples showcasing the individual criteria using only Breakers who have qualified to compete at the Games, too! It's widely thought, in the Breaking community, that the 'Trivium' system is being used, but actually, there is a Trivium-inspired system that is in place. We outline that in this video. If you find it useful, please circulate and enjoy ^_^

An open ecosystem is a winning choice. A couple of reasons: * Technology should allow multiple ways of interacting with people, in order to adapt itself to the required enduser operation. * It should support widely-used standards, so opex and cost of change are minimized.
