About CSAS

Many established sports analytics conferences remain difficult for students to access due to high technical barriers, costs, or capacity constraints. The Connecticut Sports Analytics Symposium (CSAS) was created as a direct response to this gap, building on the UConn Sports Analytics Symposium (UCSAS) launched in 2019 and expanding its scope and reach. CSAS was intentionally designed to engage participants at all educational levels, including high school, undergraduate, and graduate, who are interested in sports analytics or, more broadly, data science. The event aims to:

  • showcase sports analytics at an accessible level;
  • provide hands-on training in data analytics using sports data;
  • foster collaboration between academia and the sports industry.
