Community Sport Development Programs (CSDPs) that use an intersectoral capacity building approach have shown potential in reaching individuals in disadvantaged situations. This study has investigated how the application of capacity building principles in disadvantaged communities results in higher sport participation rates in these communities. A multiple case design was used, including six similar disadvantaged communities in Antwerp, Belgium; four communities implemented the CSDP, two communities served as control communities without CSDP. In total, 52 face-to-face interviews were held with sport, social, health, cultural, and youth organizations in these communities. Four key findings were crucial to explain the success of the CSDP according to the principles of capacity building. First, the CSDP appeared to be the missing link between sport organizations on the one hand and health, social, youth, and cultural organizations on the other hand. Second, shifting from a sport-oriented staff to a mix of sport staff, social workers and representatives of people in disadvantaged situations helped increase trust through a participatory approach. Third, CSDPs assisted sport clubs to deal with financial, organizational, and cultural pressures that arose from the influx of new members in disadvantaged situations. Finally, the CSDPs developed well-planned and integrated strategies focusing on reinforcing the existing local organizations already using sport to reach their goals. These capacity building principles were key in attaining higher sport participation for people living in disadvantaged communities.

在混乱的水上架起桥梁：将体育和非体育组织的能力联系起来

使用跨部门能力建设方法的社区体育发展计划（CSDP）在接触弱势群体方面显示出潜力。这项研究调查了能力建设原则在弱势社区中的应用如何导致这些社区中较高的体育参与率。使用了多案例设计，包括比利时安特卫普的六个类似的弱势社区；四个社区实施了CSDP，两​​个社区作为没有CSDP的控制社区。在这些社区中，总共对体育，社会，卫生，文化和青年组织进行了52次面对面的采访。根据能力建设原则，四个关键发现对于解释CSDP的成功至关重要。第一，CSDP似乎是一方面体育组织与另一方面健康，社会，青年和文化组织之间缺少的联系。其次，从体育工作者转变为体育工作者，社会工作者和处境不利者的代表，有助于通过参与性方式增加信任。第三，CSDP帮助体育俱乐部应对在不利情况下涌入的新成员带来的财务，组织和文化压力。最后，CSDP制定了计划周全的综合战略，重点是加强已经利用体育运动实现其目标的现有地方组织。这些能力建设原则对于为处境不利社区的人们提高体育参与度至关重要。
