Conferences

NAASE is committed to organizing sports economics sessions at the annual meetings of three prominent scholarly associations of economists.

• Western Economic Association International (June/July)
  • Annual NAASE membership meeting
• Southern Economic Association (November)
• Eastern Economic Association (Spring)

NAASE members also often organize sessions at other regional conferences (e.g., Missouri Valley Economic Association, International Atlantic Economic Society), as well as at special conferences throughout the world. We provide a list of upcoming gatherings of sports economists, along with session organizers below. Please contact a NAASE officer if you wish NAASE to promote an upcoming meeting of sports economists that is not listed.
