By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: 2022Subject(s): Online resources: In: Asia Pacific Viewpoint Vol.63, No.2, August 2022, pp.306-312 (8)Summary: Based upon a literature review, this paper first identifies and articulates the importance of studying physical activity and sport (PAS) engagement of new Asian migrants within a particular geographical location - New Zealand. A pilot study with a series of in-depth interviews highlights some challenges that New Zealand Regional Sports Organisations (RSOs) and new Asian migrants face in terms of PAS engagement. Findings from the pilot study interviews indicate that RSOs in New Zealand are well aware of these challenges, and these challenges mainly stem from a lack of understanding of the needs of new Asian migrant communities. These findings also indicate that ethnicity plays a significant role in influencing migrants' PAS engagement.
