In my @TempleSTHM course Current and Ethical Issues in Sport and Recreation Management with @ItsDrGSTHM, I conducted a workshop which highlighted the issues that I see within AAU basketball.

@RidallJake Fans don't even need their phones, just their faces! It is honestly hard to comprehend. #srm3224 #group3

@lizszmigiel And fans with kids! #srm3224 #group3

@David_L2002 Safety is probably the only facet of sport which truly needs facial recognition, especially for 'streakers' and fans that scream/throw things at players. #srm3224 #group3

@LucasG_tuh14659 Great point. This seems like the inevitable reality. #srm3224 #group3

@kqsrm3224 I am definitely looking forward to having access to this technology at the Linc. #srm3224 #group3

Citi Field utilizes facial recognition technology at ticketing gates to allow fans to "skip the line" and get into the game faster. This technology will allow stadiums to improve the efficiency of ingress/egress of fans. #srm3224 #group3

Facial recognition could be problematic for ticketing because of technologies such as Deepfake, which is able to digitally alter faces to appear as another face. #srm3224 #group3

An example of a sport sponsorship that could create noise for the sponsored brand is the 76ers’ jersey sponsorship deal with https://t.co/E0AOGuYUG1 due to the volatility of cryptocurrency. #srm3224

@wsportsxchange @riley_grube This post by @wsportsxchange provides information regarding how to watch the NCAA Gymnastics national championship, including the date, time, and broadcast channel. This is a similar format to how large media organizations amplify men's sport events. #srm3224

@Amarna_Milne @RidallJake @Andrew_BoscoSRM It is incredibly difficult to believe what you read on Twitter, especially now that everybody can be verified with the release of Twitter Blue. Accounts like @ButtCrackSports are able to falsify news and trick people pretty often. #srm3224 #group3

[Brendan O’Neill @tuk01319]

@josh_ungerer This is exactly how I thought. The need for technology is quite literally based on linear thinking/problem solving. #srm3224 #group3

[Brendan O’Neill @tuk01319]

@Andrew_BoscoSRM Exactly. I feel that we have only evolved to become more reliant on technology, if anything. #srm3224 #group3

[Brendan O’Neill @tuk01319]

Younger generations want content in bite-sized pieces, and the evolution of how content is presented reflects this desire. If Gen X/Baby Boomers swapped places with Gen Z, they too would prefer bite-sized content; we have adapted to the tech we grew up with. #srm3224 #group3

[Brendan O’Neill @tuk01319]

Tech has transformed the way in which we consume sport, but we are still linear thinkers. The best example of this is to analyze the methods in which older generations of sports fans consume content in comparison to younger generations. #srm3224 #group3

[Brendan O’Neill @tuk01319]

Gen X and Baby Boomers are more likely to read articles or listen to talk radio, whereas Gen Z is more likely to see highlights on social media. Millennials sort of bridge the gap, as they utilize all of these methods to consume content. #srm3224 #group3
