• Sport often refers to deal itself with the those who break its rules & etiquette
• But the police are increasingly LESS willing to look the other way when breach of the law occurs, even though the behaviour in question has occurred within a sporting context
• Whether or not the behaviour is viewed within a sporting context is determined by whether or not it breaks the CONTRACT TO COMPETE

Causes of deviant behaviour
• Individual players lack moral restraint• Players may value winning above the loss of respect or
punishment • Rewards so great that larger number of players are
prepared to cross the line (could be considered as positive deviance)
• Deviant behaviour become less socially unacceptable • Sport GB’s may feel less able to punish deviant
behaviour in fear of being taken to the courts by the performers
