5 ' English language journals that are often or sometimes used by sport management researchers and educators. Journals limited in regional scope (e.g., one or more Asian nations, South Africa, Scandinavia) are not included. Journals focused on the social sciences of sport are included because they are frequently used by sport management scholars as teaching, research, and publishing outlets. Journals with a primary focus on sport science (e.g., medicine, physiology, biomechanics) are not included here, although they do often publish sport- management- relevant work (e.g., management/policies regarding drug use in sport). Although event and sport tourism journals are included, other tourism/hospitality journals are not included despite the occasional article that is relevant to event management, the use of events in destination marketing, and/or sponsor hospitality. *Edited out of Korea, in parallel to Journal of Global Scholars of Marketing Science; to be published by a British publisher. ** An online journal combining academic and journalistic work on sport s many facets, including management. ***Tentative agreement with a leading British publisher; details still to be worked out.
