The impact of entrepreneurship on developing innovative methodologies in sports education sciences within the framework of sustainable development

Abstract

This study explores the role of entrepreneurship in shaping innovative methodologies within sports education sciences, aligned with the principles of sustainable development. The research highlights how entrepreneurial thinking fosters creativity, adaptability, and forward-thinking strategies in physical education and sports sciences, promoting more dynamic, student-centred learning environments. Emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches, the study underscores the integration of digital tools, innovative training programs, and sustainable practices that contribute to the holistic development of learners. It further investigates the impact of entrepreneurial initiatives on curriculum enhancement, professional development, and the broader educational ecosystem. Through a comprehensive review of current trends and case studies, the research identifies key drivers of innovation, such as technological integration, community engagement, and resource optimization. The findings advocate for a shift toward educational models that not only respond to contemporary challenges but also anticipate future needs. This paradigm supports the cultivation of critical thinking, leadership, and problem-solving skills among students and educators alike. Ultimately, the study recommends the adoption of entrepreneurial principles as a foundational element in reforming sports education systems, aiming to align them with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in fostering inclusive, equitable, and quality education.
