Editors' Introduction

The International Journal of Sport Finance begins a new era with the publication of this issue (Volume 4, Issue 1). Dennis Howard, the founding editor of IJSF, and Fitness Information Technology, the publishers of the journal, envisioned a change in the IJSF editorial leadership in three-year cycles to keep the field of sport finance moving forward and the journal vital. With the publication of this issue we are following through with that policy with Robert Simmons assuming duties as editor and Bernd Frick and Brad R. Humphreys assuming the roles of associate editors.
