This study assessed gender differences in entry-level sport management jobs application. Announcements for 27 jobs fitting five academic specialization areas within sport were presented in random order to subjects (N= 210) who read each one and indicated the positions for which they would apply upon graduation. Results of a multivariate analysis of variance indicated no significant differences in proportions of “yes” responses relative to application within major specialization. Conclusions were that females and males do not apply for jobs disproportionately within their specialized major fields of study, refuting the popular notion that women do not apply for managerial positions with sport.
