Análisis matemático y deportivo para gestionar tu propio equipo de fútbol, baloncesto o béisbol

This course will combine some math skills and sports analytics to help students understand what it is like to be a professional sports team general manager.  We will primarily focus on the sports of football, basketball, and baseball, though other sports can be used based on student interest.  The primary math/economics topics we will explore will include:
*Budgets
*Spreadsheets
*Opportunity Cost
*Interest 
*Sunk cost analysis

The Sports concepts we will look at include:
*Salary Caps
* Trade evaluations 
* Building teams on the basis of team strengths and salary cap limitations
* Player evaluations based on stats/analytics and efficiency ratings

While sports knowledge in all four/five of the major sports (basketball, football, baseball, hockey, soccer) is not necessary, students benefit the most who have a strong understanding of at least one major professional sport and interest in one or two others. 

Note for mature learners ages 12-13:  The ideal age to take this course is 12-13.  The level of understanding, background knowledge, and math skills is ideal for someone in grades 6-8th.  However, many students at younger ages do take the course and do quite well if they have advanced maturity, understand some of the basics of sports, and understand how to read graphs with mathematical material.  It is important that younger learners 9-10 understand that time should not be spent in the course on remote learning etiquette.  They should already come equipped.   Gladly, 99% of the Outschool learners who have taken this class have had that.
