摘要：Previous research confirms that organisational team sport interventions hold benefits for the organisation. But the question remains: what actions can organisations take to encourage organisational team sport? The purpose of this study was to explore employees’ perceptions of actions that organisations can take to encourage team sport in an organisation. The qualitative exploratory study was conducted among 63 sport participants and 9 sport coordinators of nine different financial organisations in the Gauteng region, South Africa. The data were collected by means of focus group and individual interviews. The results indicated that there are several actions an organisation can take to encourage team sport. The findings of this study contribute valuable new knowledge to the literature because the researcher knows of no other studies that have been done in this field.
