Letter from the Editor: Human Element

Letterfrom Editor Tile

This issue renders an interesting dichotomy. On the one hand, we're going to terrify the Luddites among our readership, as we address the many ways that technology is fundamentally changing the athletics, fitness and recreation industries. From our cover story, which details how satellite-guided robots are increasingly tasked with painting field lines, to an article about the software and apps that are revolutionizing tournament hosting, the advancement of technology is very real and will continue as long as there are smart, inquisitive people looking to solve problems.

On the other hand, the powerful human element present in our industries is equally undeniable. Clubs, campuses and communities across the country are realizing health and fitness are dependent on myriad factors, and wellness is a holistic measure that is impacted by an individual's physical, mental and emotional states. In this issue we also look at the good old-fashioned benefits of exercising outdoors — sunshine, fresh air, the smell of the flowers and trees — as well as the ways that colleges and universities are pushing integrated wellness to a broader campus population.
