Sports club, league and tournaments are three of the more prevalent structures currently used to manage and organize sports. Management systems, including amateur bodies such as the National collegiate Athletic Association and the United States Track and Field Association or professional organizations such as the World Boxing Association and the National Basketball Association, employ some variation of these structures to produce sporting events. But contemporary sports management is far more complex than its historical antecedents. Furthermore, the growing popularity of newer sports such as mountain biking, snowboarding, and rock climbing and the increasing power of new management structure.
The continuing growth of the sports industry and its importance to numerous sponsors and institutions created demand for the systematic study of sports management practices. Since the late 1960, the academic field of sports management has focused on the unique and special issues facing the people who conduct the business of sports.
As the sports management professional began to grow and prosper, it became apparent that although similarities existed between running a general business and running a sports organization, there were also intricacies peculiar to the sports industry. Early on, sports managers learned from hands-on experiences gained in the industry. However, as the sports industry became more complex, the need to train sports managers in a more formal fashion became a necessity. The formal study of sport management emerged from this need.
The concept of a sport management curriculum is generally credited to two people: James G.Mason, a physical educator at the University of Miami-Florida, and Walter O’ Malley of the Brooklyn (now Los Angeles) Dodgers, who discussed the idea in 1957. The first Master’s Program in sports management was established at Ohio University in 1966 and was based on Mason’s and O’ Malley’s ideas. Shortly after the Ohio University graduate program began, Biscayne College (Now St. Thomas for Sports Management). NASSM and NASPE monitor sport management curricula.
Sports Management professional organizations also exist in a number of nations outside North America. Two of these organizations are the Sports Management Association of Australia and New Zealand (SMAANZ) and the European Association of Sports Management (EASM). In addition, 2010 marked the establishment of the African Sports Management Association, with great hopes for collaborations among these various international organizations. As sports management becomes more global in nature, Universities implementing successful country specific curricula outside North America are producing successful sports managements as well. Universities in Belgium, England, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Spain and the Netherland, for example are preparing future Sports Managers. Programs are also thriving in Japan. As the sports industry evolves, sports management curricula will continue to change to meet the needs of this global industry.
