Resum
La gestión deportiva es un campo de estudio que ha crecido considerablemente. Sin embargo, se sabe poco sobre su estructura. Por ello, este artículo presenta un enfoque de aprendizaje de clusters no supervisado basado en un análisis temático de los resúmenes. Se aplica a un amplio corpus de documentos de gestión deportiva para conocer la estructura de la disciplina. Se descargó un total de 3.704 registros de la base de datos Scopus. Los datos se procesaron mediante el enfoque BERTopic. Los resultados indican que la gestión deportiva es un campo de estudio en crecimiento y de gran colaboración. Los temas (o tópicos) estaban diversificados (25 clusters). Debido a su proximidad, también se identificaron siete metatópicos. Mientras que el interés por los grandes eventos deportivos y el impacto social del turismo deportivo ha disminuido en los últimos años, otros campos de estudio, como el espíritu empresarial, la innovación y la gestión de clubes deportivos, han captado el interés de los investigadores.
