Student Case Study
The Alliance for Sport Business welcomes student teams to participate in the Case Study Competition on Monday, March 2nd at 10:00am. Case study teams will have 12 minutes (with an additional three minutes for questions) to present their findings to a panel of judges from Boston Legacy FC (a new NWSL Soccer team).
Call for Papers
If interested in presenting sport management research, please email abstract to Annemarie Farrell at afarrell5@stonehill.edu for peer review. Abstract submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis beginning January 1, 2026, and will be accepted until the program is full. Acceptance of a research proposal comes with expectation that at least one author will register and attend the conference in OKC.
