Call for Papers

Deadline for submissions: Friday, 19 April 2019, 23.59 CET

The Scientific and Programme Committee of 27thEuropean Sport Management Conference of the European Association for Sport Management (EASM) invites scholars and practitioners to submit abstracts to be considered for presentation. Additionally, we invite short papers to be considered for the EASM Best Conference Paper Award 2019and for the ESMQ New Researcher Award 2019for young scientific scholars. Reviewers contributing to assessing and progressing colleagues’ work in an excellent manner as part of the peer-review process will be awarded with the EASM Best Conference Reviewer Award 2019.

The Seville 2019 conference theme is “Connecting Sport Practice and Science”. In that respect, submissions that particularly, but not exclusively, relate to the conference theme are encouraged. Contributors have the opportunity to present in Parallel Sessions, Workshops, and attractive Poster Sessions during the conference.

The main aim of all conference sessions is to encourage participants from across fields to share knowledge, provide new insights and inspire the future of sport management. Sessions also offer a platform to create inter- and cross-disciplinary contacts and collaborations.

Please review the conference website www.easm2019.comfor full information on the conference content, submission requirements, awards and registration as well as further details about the wonderful Spanish city of Seville.
