Marketing for High School Sports Programs

What better way for your students to learn about the incredible world of sports business than by getting experience firsthand? SCC’s Sports Business Program is an online subscription-based program that helps schools develop an authentic sports business program that connects marketing education with high school athletics. Think of it as a program that parallels a student store operation, but as a real world sports business operative within the structure of high school athletics. SCC’s Sports Business Program introduces students to the very same basic business principles that provide the foundation for organizations in the sports industry all over the world.

A FULLY-INTEGRATED SPORTS BUSINESS PROGRAM

Imagine your students working as real sports “executives” while helping generate additional revenue for your school and its sports programs without compromising the integrity of high school athletics or the education process as whole. Easy to implement and representative of successful sports business model organizations, the program offers flexibility to easily adapt to each school’s individual needs. The future of your students begins today!

“Our industry is now at a crossroads, with the very real need for high school students to learn business fundamentals prior to their matriculation into university sports and entertainment marketing programs and, ultimately, their careers. SCC’s Sports Business Program provides a unique, experiential learning opportunity for high schools and their business education and marketing students to do just that. As an added benefit, the program also offers a means for schools to generate much-needed revenue in the process; I can’t think of any other academic programs that offer such a direct return-on-investment. I’d encourage all high schools that are serious about their sports and entertainment programs to adopt the Sports Business Program…and start filling their stands right away!”
