This class examines the Australian model of sport management. It also analyzes the Australian government’s sport policy and the subsequent organization and administration of Australian professional sports. Students travel throughout Australia for site visits, classes, sporting contests and seminars including multi-day stays in: Melbourne, Sydney, Surfers Paradise and Cairns. The Australian government traditionally spends the most money in the world per capita on elite athlete development and fittingly the Aussies have led numerous Summer Olympic Games in medals per capita. Australia offers great opportunities for University students to visit and study this fascinating model of sport while also studying Australian culture and its society at large.

Hey y'all ... looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow night at LAX as we start our Australian adventure.
Big shout out to Prof. Pat Ryan for helping us get this blog started.

Everyone is going to join in the process so you might as well start now adding your thoughts and hopes and dreams and general excitement.
