<p>Is this a risky field? Like are the job opportunities slim? Also, what colleges are good for this major.</p>
<p>It’s a stupid major…one that shouldn’t exist. </p>
<p>Just major in business and intern in sports if you want a career in it.</p>
<p>You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about, do you know how many people want to work in the sports industry? In a field as desirable as sports it’s pretty sensible that it be taught in colleges. I’m going to be a sports management major, and while the route you mentioned is another way of getting into the field, I don’t want to waste my time in college learning something I’m not interested in. To answer the OP, of course it’s risky, just because there are so few jobs compared to something like business, but if you’re really passionate about it (as I am) then go for it, better to fail at your dream then spend your life wondering.</p>

<p>But wasting your time in something that you will never use is any better?</p>
<p>If you are concerned about “waste”, then you should worry about wasting money, which is what this major is.</p>
