다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study focused on looking through the sports tourism, which has been more popularized in these days, especially in the southeastern area of Gangwon Province i terms of three categories of sports tourism such as sports facilities, events and star players. Firstly, in order to develop sports facilities or accommodations with full features of each region, we should consider the installation of various available facilities such as the establishment of marine towns with affluent marine resources along with the development of youth training center, the development of nature-friendly marathon course based on the renown of ex-marathon winner, Mr. Hwang Yeong-jo; the development of exciting mountaineering paths with full features of plateau and mountain area; and the development of field training park for each sports event. Secondly, when we consider current regional atmosphere and sports facilities, ondition for the attraction of sports event suitable for each local feature, it is necessary that Donghae city should attract nation-wide volleyball championship and professional soccer games. Thirdly, it is recommended that various programs should be developed through facilitating sports schools with local sports star players including Hwang, Yeong-jo (marathoner and walkathon), Lee, Enl-yong (soccer), Hong, Hyeon-wook (Ssireum, Sumo and Wrestling) in connection between local sports associations and universities in an effort to bridge the local exchange with neighboring countries. In conclusion, it is expected that there will be more and more interest and investment in sport tourism, whether nationally or locally, so that we should perform certain cooperative academic studies between tourism science and physical education so as to verify such expectation i the theoretic level.
