Abstract

This article argues that the brand image, which is studied widely in marketing, can also be applied to the individual sport celebrity. A model to guide such investigation is
presented; the sport celebrity brand image model. This conceptual model shows that sponsor organisations should be aware of the brand effects of the sport celebrity brand
image in that the sport celebrity brand image can impact on the attitudes of sport consumers.
