Abstract

With the increasing professionalisation and commercialisation of sports, there is no denying that the sports industry is a multi-million dollar business. The latest Australian Bureau of Statistics figures, which relate to calendar year 1995, indicate that the sporting industry in Australia is worth approximately $2 billion annually in facilities, employment, sales of goods and services. These figures do not include the extraordinary explosion of sports business activity since June 1995, including multi-million dollar rugby, rugby league, triathlon, swimming, athletics, hockey and cricket deals (with pay television spin-offs). The figures also do not include the economic impact of major events such as the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix, IndyCar or, in 2000, the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
