Many sociology of sport scholars find themselves working in sport management academic programs. Indeed, many scholars may attend conferences and publish in journals from the fields of both sport management and sociology of sport. In these ways, some meaningful overlap exists between the two fields. Such connections between the fields are perhaps particularly relevant given recent attention to public sociology of sport. In some ways, activities such as teaching sport management students and engaging with sport management practitioners may be conceptualized as "doing" public sociology of sport. Ultimately, this session invites submissions that highlight or interrogate the potential (dis)connections between sport management and sociology of sport.
