Welcome

On behalf of the editorial team of the Journal of Sport History, I welcome you to our website where you can find out how to become a member of the North American Society of Sport History (which has sponsored the journal since 1974), submit articles to the JSH, and peruse back issues.

As well as academic articles, each issue of the JSH features a forum in which scholars debate significant topics. During my tenure as editor, we have introduced a series of essays on sources and methods in sport history and will shortly begin a section that examines how classic sport history books have stood the “test of time.” Additionally, we publish research notes, lists of dissertations, book, film, and museum exhibition reviews. Unique among sport history journals, the JSH makes extensive use of visual material. Whether you read sport history as a researcher, teacher, student, or for personal interest, look at a recent back issue to see what we have to offer.
