Call for Papers – NAASE Sports Economics Sessions

88th Annual WEAI Conference
Seattle, Washington
June 28 – July 2, 2013

The North American Association of Sports Economists (NAASE) is again organizing sports economics sessions at the Western Economic Association International (WEAI) conference. The conference will be held June 28 to July 2 in Seattle. The basic format of the NAASE sessions will be the same as in the past. Specifically, we will try to schedule the NAASE sessions on three consecutive days. However, we do not have direct control over the scheduling of sessions. And last year – when we had 21 sessions – we had sessions on five different days.

There will again be a special issue of the Journal of Sports Economics devoted to papers from these sessions. Details on submitting a paper for inclusion in the JSE issue can be found below. In addition, papers presented at the WEAI conference can be submitted for publication to Contemporary Economics Policy or Economic Inquiry within 6 months of the conference without paying a submission fee.

If you have a sports economics paper you would like to present in Seattle, please email Tony Krautmann or David Berri (see below for full contact information) the following:

• the title of your paper
• an abstract (we hope to post all abstracts, so please provide a brief description of your paper)
• an indication of which co-authors are actually attending the meeting AND which days everyone plans on attending. It is important you tell us when you will be there so we can know which days to try and schedule your papers (and also, who to schedule as discussants)
• an indication of which co-authors are NAASE members (membership is encouraged for all presenters)
• full contact information including post and email addresses, phone and fax numbers for all co-authors by January 15, 2013.  for NEW DEADLINE click plz : http://www.weai.org/AnnualConf   Your submission must contain full contact information for ALL co-authors or it will not be considered.
