\nThis study\/ research focuses on one of the most important issues related to the development of sports in the state of Qatar; spectator\u2019s attendance. Significance of this study\/research can be perceived from two perspectives: contribution to research\/literature and academia and contribution to practitioners.

And what are the main reasons\/ drivers for attending matches in general? The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) stated that tennis continues to lead pack among traditional sports in participation growth.

\nThis case based approach shall provide evidence from the initial experiences of using the GVV approach in a well-recognized higher institution in Qatar, Qatar University. More specifically, evidence of whether faculty fundamentally alter their course structure in a way that is consistent with the GVV approach, and from a student\u2019s perspective, it is interesting to describe students\u2019 reactions to the use of GVV approach. In general, the use of GVV approach in teaching can build greater openness and self-awareness by students to ethical considerations. It is critical to understand whether students perceive it`s value the same way.<\/span>
\nThis case study analysis shall enhance the current literature about sustainability in education in the region in general and specifically business education as majority of current research and case studies focus on the engineering\/ architecture and oil and gas sectors. Education policy makers from both the private and public sector shall also benefit from the learning outcomes of this case study to better integrate the GVV concepts and approach in current and future curriculums and try to manage student\u2019s expectations and related challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n
