The Palgrave Handbook of Creativity and Sport will be an extensive scholarly resource across over forty chapters, written by respected researchers and educators working in the intersection between sport and creativity research. Bringing together this diverse and international cast of distinguished experts, the handbook synthesizes the study of sport and creativity to offer a unique exploration of these aspects of exercise, sport and performance. Showcasing an abundance of topics relevant to this emerging, interdisciplinary field, the handbook not only serves as an expansive introduction to creativity research in sport but also as an irreplaceable reference and learning resource pertaining to topical debates and cutting-edge studies across the field. The varied perspectives on creativity in sport are reflected by the structure of the handbook, as it is divided into five main parts, which are framed by an introduction. The introduction reviews the history of creativity research in sport, and outlines the relevance of the topics covered in the five subsequent parts. These comprise 1) theoretical positions, 2) contexts for creativity, 3) methodological approaches, and 4) applied perspectives. As such, this Handbook will be a vital resource for students and researchers across the diverse areas of sport science, particularly those concerned with psychology, philosophy, pedagogy, coaching, youth development, talent development, skill acquisition, and expert performance. It encourages readers to reconsider their views and beliefs about creativity, sport, and their pivotal relationship, and to move with creativity in novel ways.
