Abstract Although sexual abuse occurs within sport, few athletes formally report it while they are still active participants. At the same time, formal reporting channels in sport often constitute a central part of sport organisations’ safeguarding frameworks. Therefore, how reporting procedures are perceived and made sense of by athletes and others in sport is important for understanding their potential as well as their limitations. The article addresses this question through a sociological lens inspired by Steven Lukes and Norbert Elias that foregrounds power and social belonging. Sport leaders, coaches and (women) athletes from organised sport in Zambia were interviewed about their perspectives on the prospect of reporting abuse through formal channels in sport. Issues perceived as reporting barriers included fears related to punishment, not being believed, being gossiped about, and being excluded from sport. Reporting sexual abuse was construed as a task that potentially jeopardised athletes’ social position as well as their sport privileges and remaining silent or telling a trusted friend about abuse was articulated as the safest alternative. The uncertainty associated with the reporting process is discussed in relation to decision-making, agenda-setting, and ideological power and the social meanings ascribed to sport participation. I conclude that the role of power and social belonging should be considered central aspects of the reporting conundrum, and that these dimensions deserve due attention within safeguarding in sport.

报告体育中的虐待:权力问题?

摘要 尽管性虐待发生在体育运动中,但很少有运动员在他们仍然是积极参与者时正式报告。同时,体育运动中的正式报告渠道通常构成体育组织保护框架的核心部分。因此,运动员和其他运动人士如何看待和理解报告程序对于了解他们的潜力和局限性非常重要。这篇文章从史蒂文·卢克斯 (Steven Lukes) 和诺伯特·埃利亚斯 (Norbert Elias) 的启发下通过社会学视角解决了这个问题,该视角强调了权力和社会归属感。来自赞比亚有组织的体育运动的体育领袖、教练和(女)运动员接受了采访,了解他们对通过体育运动中的正式渠道举报虐待的前景的看法。被视为报告障碍的问题包括与惩罚有关的恐惧、不被相信,被八卦,被排除在体育运动之外。报告性虐待被解释为一项可能危及运动员的社会地位以及他们的运动特权的任务,并且保持沉默或告诉可信赖的朋友有关性虐待被明确表达为最安全的选择。与报告过程相关的不确定性在决策、议程设置和意识形态权力以及归因于体育参与的社会意义方面进行了讨论。我得出的结论是,权力的作用和社会归属感应该被视为报告难题的核心方面,并且这些方面在体育保护中值得应有的关注。报告性虐待被解释为一项可能危及运动员的社会地位以及他们的运动特权的任务,并且保持沉默或告诉可信赖的朋友有关性虐待被明确表达为最安全的选择。与报告过程相关的不确定性在决策、议程设置和意识形态权力以及归因于体育参与的社会意义方面进行了讨论。我得出的结论是,权力的作用和社会归属感应该被视为报告难题的核心方面,并且这些方面在体育保护中值得应有的关注。报告性虐待被解释为一项可能危及运动员的社会地位以及他们的运动特权的任务,并且保持沉默或告诉可信赖的朋友有关性虐待被明确表达为最安全的选择。与报告过程相关的不确定性在决策、议程设置和意识形态权力以及归因于体育参与的社会意义方面进行了讨论。我得出的结论是,权力的作用和社会归属感应该被视为报告难题的核心方面,并且这些方面在体育保护中值得应有的关注。与报告过程相关的不确定性在决策、议程设置和意识形态权力以及归因于体育参与的社会意义方面进行了讨论。我得出的结论是,权力的作用和社会归属感应该被视为报告难题的核心方面,并且这些方面在体育保护中值得应有的关注。与报告过程相关的不确定性在决策、议程设置和意识形态权力以及归因于体育参与的社会意义方面进行了讨论。我得出的结论是,权力的作用和社会归属感应该被视为报告难题的核心方面,并且这些方面在体育保护中值得应有的关注。
