Dear Aspirant,


Sports management is all about marketing an event, planning, supervising and organizing various sporting events. Key skills one needs are either marketing skills or organizational skills and if you have both all the better.  Like any management course this is also an MBA program.


Is it worth joining? – Frankly it entirely depends on you, if you like sports it will make it a lot easier to be a part of that management team. If you consider sports as a product then you are just promoting a product and it happens to be sports and it has a huge worldwide following and the industry is huge – mega bucks like IPL!  So do read about, what really is management all about and consider this as your first decision.


Good Luck
