    The Paradox of Championships “Be Careful, Sports Fans, What You Wish For” Robert A. Baade Victor A. Matheson James D. Vail Professor of Economics Department of Economics Lake Forest College Fernald House Lake Forest, IL Williams College Phone: 847-735-5136 Williamstown, MA 01267 Fax: 847-735-6193 Phone: 413-597-2144 E-mail: [email protected] Fax: 413-597-4045 E-mail: [email protected] ABTRACT: This paper examines issues related to the economic impact of sports championships on the local economy of host cities. While boosters frequently claim a large positive effect of such championships, a closer examination leads to the conclusion that the impact is likely much smaller than touted and may even be negative. Key Words: Mega-event, sports, sporting events, impact analysis JEL Classification Codes: L83 - Sports; Gambling; Recreation; Tourism; R53 - Public Facility Location Analysis; Public Investment and Capital Stock 1 INTRODUCTION Economics has frequently been used as a rationale in defense of public subsidies for professional sports. Subsidy advocates argue that new teams and/or stadiums provide an economic stimulus, and public support for professional sports should be construed as an investment rather than expenditure. This proposition is thought to be particularly true when the public subventions for sport produce championship teams. Two issues need to be analyzed in conjunction with this thesis. First, do greater subsidies translate into more frequent championships? Second, do sports championships correspond to higher levels of economic activity? The purpose of this report is to provide answers to these questions. A direct correlation between subsidies and championships has theoretical appeal.

  • 2021 Season 2 CIF Sports Championship Calendar
    April 28, 2021 CIF Update Regarding Season 2 Championships SACRAMENTO, CALIF. — At this time, the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) is pleased to announce that Southern California Regional Championship events will be offered in the following sports, baseball, basketball, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, and boys volleyball. As has been the case throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the CIF will need to be flexible and will be prepared to adjust the remaining Championship schedules as necessary as completing CIF Section Championships is a priority. See below for the complete Season 2 Schedule. With only two of the six Northern California Region Sections offering Championships at this time (Central Coast Section and Oakland Section), it is not feasible for the State CIF to conduct Northern California Regional Championships. Also, due to the limited number of Sections in Northern California conducting championships, coupled with potential logistical/travel issues, the State CIF will not be hosting State Championships in swim & dive, track & field, and wrestling. As conditions improve through the remainder of the 2020-21 school year, we are hopeful for a full return in August to education-based athletics. 2021 Season 2 CIF Sports Championship Calendar as of April 28, 2021 *Last Day for Sport Last Day for Section Playoffs Regional/State Championships SPRING SoCal Soccer May 29, 2021 June 5, 2021 SoCal Tennis (Boys & Girls) May 29, 2021 June 5, 2021 SoCal Boys Volleyball June 5, 2021 June 12, 2021 *SoCal Golf (Boys & Girls) June 12, 2021 June 15, 2021 SoCal Basketball June 12, 2021 June 19, 2021 SoCal Baseball June 19, 2021 June 26, 2021 SoCal Softball June 19, 2021 June 26, 2021 ^SoCal Sections: Central, Los Angeles City, San Diego, and Southern *Upon county approval from all participating schools/individuals (Regional Championship events have been reduced to one week for all sports) -CIF- .

  • Happy New Year from the MCC
    January 2019 gazette Settlement and Integration • Language and Skills Training • Welcoming Community Happy New Year from the MCC 245 Janette Ave. Windsor, ON, N9A 4Z2 • 7651 Tecumseh Rd. East Windsor, ON, N8T 3H1 519.255.1127 • www.themcc.com FROM THE MESSAGE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR It is with heartfelt thanks and pride that I recognize the close of another successful year for the Multicultural Council of Windsor and Essex County. In celebrating our 45th year, the MCC was able to both continue our role as valuable partners in the settlement and integration sectors, and enhance our standing as innovative leaders in making Windsor-Essex a welcoming community. 2018 saw a continued commitment to client services, as we coordinated the resettlement of over 400 newcomers to the city, and managed the ongoing integration of those who arrived in our region in 2017. Our Language Instruction for Newcomers (LINC) program provided English language classes at eight levels for over 350 students this year, easing transitions to Canada and empowering men and women with education and employment opportunities. We expanded our reach into the community, partnering with agencies from across the client care spectrum to ensure that timely and appropriate services are accessible for referral. These efforts were visible at the 2018 Health Access day – where 900 clients were able to meet with 50+ service-providing partners. These relationships also allowed the MCC to provide cultural competency training to organizations and companies across the region. Together, our network encompasses all facets of social, educational, and vocational engagement, helping to create a more accepting, more understanding, and more welcoming area in which to live.

  • The Combinatorial Theory of Single-Elimination Tournaments By
    The combinatorial theory of single-elimination tournaments by Christopher Todd Edwards A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Statistics Montana State University © Copyright by Christopher Todd Edwards (1991) Abstract: This thesis is about single-elimination tournaments. These tournaments are popularly used in sporting events, but are also used in paired comparison procedures when the number of treatments is too large to use a round-robin tournament. The nature of this work is experimental design, and thus can help researchers to clarify pre-experiment issues. Combinatorial methods are used to generate and count the distinct tournament structures that exist. Recursive formulas are derived. Various criteria for “best” are considered. A tournament draw is said to be ordered when the probabilities of teams winning the tournament are ordered by the relative strengths of the teams. Numerous theorems are given concerning ordered tournaments, subtournaments, and “best” tournaments. The results developed apply to any number of teams, not just when the number of teams is a power of two. Assuming a transitive preference structure for the pairwise probabilities of teams beating each other, results on ordered tournaments and “best” tournaments are given, some of which make use of optimization routines on the computer. Results show that there exist categories of ordered tournaments which are best under certain criteria. It is proven that ordered tournament draws can be generated by iteratively combining subtournaments in just two specific ways. One important conclusion is that the popular “seeded” tournament is not optimal under several reasonable criteria, and hence many tournaments currently conducted, such as high school basketball tournaments, are perhaps inappropriate.
