Noch nie war eine Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft so groß - und so lukrativ. Christoph Breuer, Professor für Sportmanagement erklärt, warum vor allem die FIFA profitiert und weshalb die Ausweitung des Turniers auch Risiken birgt.

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup now just weeks away, new figures from Canada's Parliamentary Budget Officer estimate the cost of hosting 13 matches in Canada will exceed $1 billion. The federal government's share is estimated at $473 million. To talk about FIFA, the cost, and the cost-benefit analyses of sporting events on this scale, Evan is joined by Dr. Ann Pegoraro, Lang Chair in Sport Management at the University of Guelph.

Daniel Schöberl hat getan, wovon viele träumen: Job gekündigt, Wohnung aufgegeben, mit einem 40-Liter-Rucksack durch Thailand, Bali und Marokko gearbeitet. Doch irgendwann war das Fliegen wie Busfahren – und er merkte, dass er längst vergessen hatte, wofür er eigentlich aufgebrochen war. Was passiert, wenn Freiheit zur Gewohnheit wird? Und wie fühlt es sich an, mutig nach Hause zurückzukehren?Das beste Zitat der Folge„Ich hatte total verloren, wofür ich eigentlich mal gestartet bin – und alles war völlig Routine, nichts mehr Neues."— Daniel SchöberlWas dich in dieser Folge erwartetDaniel Schöberl betreibt seit fast 18 Jahren den Blog rucksackträger.com und war von 2016 bis 2020 als digitaler Nomade selbstständig unterwegs. In dieser Folge erzählt er, wie er den Absprung gewagt hat, warum er ihn irgendwann bereute – und was es brauchte, um wirklich anzukommen. Wer sich fragt, ob das Leben als digitaler Nomade hält, was es verspricht, bekommt hier eine der ehrlichsten Antworten, die es dazu gibt.Das sind die Highlights der Folge

Seit 1972 in München war Deutschland nicht mehr Austragungsort Olympischer Sommerspiele. Das soll sich ändern, neben Hamburg könnten sich Berlin, München und Rhein-Ruhr vorstellen, der Kandidat für 2036, 2040 oder 2044 zu werden. Wie sind die internationalen Chancen einer deutschen Bewerbung, welche Rolle spielen die Bürgerbefragungen, wie ist das mit Baustellen und der Finanzierungen? Das sind Fragen, die Michael Mronz in dieser Folge unserer Reihe „Entscheider treffen Haider“ beantwortet. Der 59-Jährige kennt sich wie kein Zweiter in Deutschland mit großen Sportereignissen aus, organisiert bekannte Tennis- und Reitsportturniere und ist Mitglied des Internationalen Olympischen Komitees.

Meet Ryan Patterson, product manager at Premier Data, a fast-growing sports technology startup that's closing the gap between elite-level analytics and grassroots sport.Ryan's path into sport is anything but linear. From scanning groceries at Woolworths at age 15, to progressively building his university qualifications across three degrees, a Bachelor of Business that evolved into Sport Management, and then a double degree adding Sport Science once he realised data analytics was where his future lay, Ryan has consistently leaned into what excited him rather than following a predetermined plan. Alongside his studies, he represented Deakin University on study tours in India and Chicago, always looking to make the most out of every opportunity in front of him.Over six years, he's worked his way through four distinct roles at Premier Data from casual coder to Product Manager, while simultaneously spending seven Australian Opens in the Ball Kids Ops team at Tennis Australia. Ryan has sat courtside for Grand Slam finals, worked inside Collingwood's coaches' box, been featured in a Netflix documentary at the AO, and helped build a startup from 20 games to 250 games a week.But his real superpower? Saying yes before he knew the answer, starting small, and staying long enough to grow into something bigger than he imagined.Tune in to this week's episode to hear exactly how he did it!We cover:(3:18) - Interview starts(5:18) - Quick-fire questions(11:02) - How the study trip to India and Chicago added to Ryan's university experience(15:13) - Ryan's internship with Collingwood FC(18:22) - How Ryan landed his role in the Ball Kid Operations team at the Australian Open(26:31) - Coolest moments from Ryan's time at the Australian Open(28:59) - How Ryan manages his roles across the AO and Premier Data(30:14) - What is Premier Data(37:18) - How Ryan progressed to his current role as Product Manager(41:47) - What does Ryan's look like on a day-to-day basis(45:41) - How Premier Data builds partnerships with new sports(48:50) - Challenges Ryan faced breaking into sport(51:14) - Advice Ryan would give his younger self(52:50) - Impact of mentors on Ryan's journey(56:20) - How to land a job as a Sport Product Manager in the next 30 days(59:06) - Biggest 'Pinch Me' moment in Ryan's career(01:00:00) - What would Ryan's life look like if he didn't work in sport(01:00:42) - What's something we might lose from sport in the next 10 years(01:02:21) - Ryan's question for the next guestIf you liked this ep, give these a go next:#227: How to be a Performance Analyst for Pro Tennis Players with Shane Linayage#257: How the AFL analyse their data with Dat Visualisation Lead, Penny Privett#288: How to be a champion data competitions coordinator with Ashleigh Newton-SpenceWant a job in sport?

Vom Mattenrand ins Scheinwerferlicht – Heute im Talk ist Katharina Leder von leMOVE Sportmanagement. Während viele im Kampfsport noch über Gleichberechtigung diskutieren, liefert leMOVE bereits die Knockout-Argumente für die Vermarktung von Athletinnen. Wir sprechen mit Katharina darüber, wie Kämpferinnen ihre Deckung in Business-Fragen fallen lassen, Sponsoren mit Strategie auf die Bretter schicken und warum es Zeit ist, dass Frauen im Ring endlich die Bühne bekommen, die sie verdienen. Ring frei für eine Folge voller (Management-)Power! Zur Person: Katharina Leder gründete mit leMOVE auch die erste Sportmanagement-Agentur nur für Mädchen und Frauen im österreichischen Leistungssport. Nebenbei ist die Wienerin Host und Podcasterin bei "strong & SEEN – Sportlerinnen im Spotlight". Diese Woche zu Gast war beispielsweise die Profiboxerin Michaela Kotaskova!

Frauen im Sport brauchen Sichtbarkeit und genau dafür setzt sich Katharina Leder ein. Sie ist die Gründerin von „leMove“, der ersten Sportagentur in Österreich, die sich ausschließlich für Sportlerinnen einsetzt. Im Podcast sprechen wir darüber, warum Frauen im Sport trotz großartiger Leistungen oft unsichtbar bleiben. Katharina erzählt, wie ihr emanzipierter Hintergrund sie geprägt hat. Sie berichtet, wie sie ihre Begeisterung für Sport entdeckte und warum sie sich entschied, Sportmanagement zu studieren. Außerdem erzählt sie von ihren Erfahrungen mit Nachwuchs-Teams, ehrenamtlicher Arbeit und Projekten, die ihr die Augen geöffnet haben. „Ich habe erkannt: Sportlerinnen werden oft unsichtbar gemacht und das wollte ich ändern.“ In der Folge geht es um die Herausforderungen von Sportlerinnen: Finanzierung, Sponsoring, Medienpräsenz und wie man diese Hürden erfolgreich meistert. Katharina erzählt uns, wie sie Athletinnen coacht, ihnen Selbstbewusstsein und Tools für Personal Branding vermittelt und sie so befähigt, langfristig unabhängig und sichtbar zu sein. Ein inspirierendes Gespräch über Frauenpower im Sport, die Bedeutung von Medien und Sponsoren und die Vision, dass jede Sportlerin die Chancen bekommt, die sie verdient. Für alle, die hinter die Kulissen des Frauensports blicken wollen und neugierig sind, wie man Gleichstellung in der Praxis umsetzt, ist diese Folge ein Muss.

Auch die beiden Moderatoren Marko Hofmann und Thomas Franzky gehen mit einem breiten Lächeln durch diese Woche. Logisch, der souveräne Sieg gegen den FC Eilenburg macht alle blau-gelben Seelen froh. Nun warten Luckenwalde, Meuselwitz und im nächsten Heimspiel dann das Top-Duell gegen den FC Carl Zeiss Jena.Zum ersten Mal in diesem Jahr ist wieder ein Spieler am Mikrofon. Der 21 Jahre junge Arne Rühlemann kam vorm Saisonstart nach Probstheida. In Eisleben geboren, durchlief der Linksfüßer die Nachwuchs-Mannschaften vom HFC. Seine ersten Erfahrungen im Männerbereich sammelte er in Eilenburg und Luckenwalde. Auch abseits des Platzes ist er aktiv und studiert Sportmanagement. Leider lässt er sich zu seiner Japan-Vorliebe nicht wirklich in die Karten schauen.

Episode 226 of The Hitstreak, a podcast where we talk about anything and everything!  This week we are joined by an Assistant Hitting Coach for the New York Yankees, Casey Dykes!Episode in a Glance:In this episode of the Hitstreak, I get to welcome back Casey Dykes, assistant hitting coach for the New York Yankees. We discuss the balance between family and work, the impact of Southern roots on professional life, and the importance of faith. Casey shares insights on the dynamics of spring training, the evolution of baseball strategies, and the sneaker culture within the sport. We also delve into personal experiences, including meeting a sitting president and the role of analytics in modern baseball. The episode wraps up with advice for young coaches and reflections on family dynamics in a busy life, emphasizing the importance of intentional living and involvement in family activities.Key Points:- Family comes first, and work should not interfere with family life.- Southern roots provide a calming foundation in a fast-paced environment.- Faith is crucial for grounding and building relationships.- The evolution of pitching and hitting strategies is significant in modern baseball.- The Yankees clubhouse has unique personalities and swag.- Analytics play a major role in coaching and player development.- Loyalty and integrity are essential qualities for young coaches. About our guest: Casey Dykes is an MLB hitting coach and player development leader currently serving as an Assistant Hitting Coach for the New York Yankees. A Franklin, Tennessee native, Dykes was a standout multi-sport athlete at Franklin High School before playing four years of college baseball at Western Kentucky University. He earned a degree in Sport Management and a master's in Athletic Administration while starting over 175 games and winning a conference championship. Following his playing career, Dykes began coaching at WKU before moving to Virginia Military Institute, where he served as lead hitting and catching coach and recruiting coordinator. At VMI, he helped develop 14 All-SoCon players, five MLB Draft picks, multiple All-Americans, and offenses that set 32 program top-10 records. Dykes later joined Indiana University's coaching staff, where the Hoosiers won the 2019 Big Ten regular season title, reached the NCAA Tournament, and led the nation in home runs. Six position players were selected in the 2019 MLB Draft—the most in school history. In 2019, Dykes joined the New York Yankees organization, progressing through Double-A and Triple-A before joining the Major League staff. He has since been part of historic offensive production, including back-to-back Team Silver Slugger Awards, a World Series appearance in 2024, and league-leading marks in runs, walks, OPS, and home runs. Grounded in faith and family, Dykes lives in Middle Tennessee with his wife Chaney, a former WKU basketball player, and their three children.Follow and contact:Instagram: @caseydykes1https://www.mlb.com/yankeesSubscribe to Nick's top-rated podcast The Hitstreak on Youtube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/NickHite⁠rFollow and Rate us on Spotify: ⁠https://spotify.com/NickHiter⁠Follow and Rate us on Apple Podcast: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/NickHiter⁠Follow and Rate us on iHeartRadio: ⁠https://www.iheart.com/NickHiter

Zwischen Cortina 1956 und Cortina 2026 sind 70 Jahre vergangen – sieben Jahrzehnte, in denen sich die Olympischen Spiele rasant entwickelt haben. Immer schneller, weiter, höher: Die Olympischen Spiele sorgen für sportliche Höchstleistungen, für Emotionen, sind populär. Die Sommer- wie Winterspiele haben sich längst als Grossereignis etabliert , was aber nicht nur Vorteile mit sich bringt. Sportstätten, die nicht mehr gebraucht werden, die Finanzierung, die für die Austragungsorte aus dem Ruder läuft, auf der anderen Seite das IOC, das mit Fernsehrechten und Sponsoring gewaltige Einnahmen generiert. Und dann immer wieder die Politik, welche die Spiele mitbestimmt, obwohl sie unpolitisch sein wollen. Die Entwicklung der Spiele – im Guten wie im Schlechten – ist das Thema in Episode 2.

Success isn't about waiting for the perfect moment—it's about stepping into the unknown and building the confidence to make things happen. Bayleigh dives into an inspiring conversation with Brittany Connor, who shares her journey of embracing fear, taking bold action, and proving that the biggest breakthroughs happen outside of your comfort zone. From leaving behind limiting beliefs to redefining success on your own terms, this episode is a powerful reminder that the life you want is within reach—you just have to be willing to go after it. Key Takeaways: Confidence isn't something you wake up with—it's built through action. Start before you feel ready, and growth will follow. Fear will always be there, but it shouldn't hold you back. Success comes from moving forward despite uncertainty. Success looks different for everyone. Define it on your terms, and stop chasing someone else's version of it. The right people can elevate you. Surround yourself with those who challenge, support, and inspire your growth. Growth happens outside your comfort zone. Embrace challenges as stepping stones to your next level.
