Sports, exercise, and civic engagement are said to have an educational function. It is assumed that in sports-related contexts people can acquire socially important skills that they can transfer into other settings such as the work place.

The Department for Sport Sociology looks at sports’ educational function focusing on informal learning processes and skill acquisition in and through civic engagement in sports.
