Drive your career in sports with Flinders University and SACA!
Prepare for rare insights and exposure to the inner operations of a professional sporting environment. The Diploma in Sports Management (Cricket) is a one-year course delivered as part of SACA’s (South Australian Cricket Association) education alignment with Flinders University.
The diploma will be based both at Adelaide Oval, as well as the new city-based Flinders University campus. Students will be exposed to multiple departments that operate within a professional sporting organisation and as a result, students will gain an understanding as to how these departments collaborate to deliver a fan facing product – both for Big Bash Leagues and our State-based domestic competitions.
Unlike traditional study methods, students will get real-world experience, gaining between 75-100 hours’ worth of on-the-job work experience across multiple departments at SACA, including behind the scenes access to match days at Adelaide Oval.
Furthermore, the understanding students will gain across marketing, match day operations, data-analytics and commercial partnerships will give unparalleled insights to what a career in sport truly looks like.
We look forward to welcoming you to our inner sanctum, improving your knowledge around business in sport and creating networking opportunities that will hold you in good stead for many years to come.
