Author: Dr. Davinder Singh Dhull, Dr. Manoj Goel

The aim of this book entitled Sports Management is to provide a resource of information for professional students and practitioners embarking upon a career as a sports administrator or sports manager. The book is designed to meet the needs of the physical education majors gaining professional competency in resource management which they will handle first at the entry point level and later as full-time administrators or managers. Sports management is a field of education concerning the business aspect of the sport. Some examples of sports managers include the front office system in professional sports, college sports managers, recreational sports managers, sports marketing, event management, facility management, sports economics, sports finance, and sports information. Many colleges and universities offer bachelor's and master's degrees in sports management. This certain profession is slowly increasing in popularity, yet is predicted to not be able to fill positions due to the explosion in demand. Entry-level persons with a degree in sports management can expect an hourly wage due to the high demand for fewer jobs.
