Sporting scenario in India and details about sports management and sports science ecosystem.
The sporting scenario of India is rapidly evolving into a mega sports market, creating a mark on the global map. Some years back, only a few sports were popular and played in the country, but recently, the number of prominent sports in the country has increased drastically. There are many reasons for this, some of which are the biggest league cricket tournament, Indian Premier League (IPL) and growing number of medals won by Indian athletes in Olympics.
IPL has been a game changer in the sporting ecosystem of India, as the tournament generates a huge amount of revenue and global recognition. Inspired from the IPL, various others sports also initiated similar leagues, resulting in the more sporting events across the country. The growing number of sporting events eventually demanded human resources for conducting these events successfully. This is where Sports Management and Sports Science come into play.
Sports Management and Sports Science are the two prominent pillars of the Indian sporting ecosystem. Sports Management professionals are the ones who look after the off-field aspects of a sporting event, sporting brand or an athlete. A career in Sports Management is not like an ordinary 9-5 job where you can work at your pace. A sports management professional needs to be dynamic and alert to sustain in the industry. A career in Sports Science also demands similar attributes as professionals need to be updated about the latest technologies used to map the athletes performance and track the dietary requirements. These are the unique and trendiest career paths that are excitingly mesmerizing for the youth of India. Although these two career choices are pretty new, there are a varied career options available in the field with a great demand for human resources in the sports market.
