"Mauro’s important study is not the first to look at racism within grassroots football in Ireland but is certainly the most in-depth account to date … Mauro’s research is an important step in addressing an issue which Irish society has struggled to deal with" – Conor Curran, Trinity College Dublin, Sport in Society"‘Youth Sport, Migration and Culture’ is a welcome addition to studies on migration, integration and sport, where unlike previous contributions in the field the ethnographic research process and narrative accounts of young people’s trajectories are in the focus. Yet, the book confirms that sport is neither naturally inclusive nor a colour-blind space, but a space, where ‘race’ is actively constructed." – Verena Lenneis, Aalborg University, European Journal for Sport and Society
