Abstract :How to control football-related crime has historically often occupied the agenda in Turkey. Due to the lack of the empirical evidence on the effectiveness of the State control mechanisms on football, this paper employs the situational crime prevention approach to reveal how the available crime control techniques can plausibly produce reduction in football-related crime. Five mechanisms of the situational crime prevention model to reduce crime are accordingly related to each technique. The paper aims to produce a template which locates the Turkish social control on football into a particular crime prevention approach.
