The number of foreign research papers on sport management has increased significantly in recent years. Therefore, in order to revitalize sport management research in Japan, understanding research trends overseas is important. We aimed to examine ways to promote sport management research in Japan through a bibliometric analysis of articles published in major domestic and international academic journals. Data were collected on bibliographic information (e.g., year of publication, author, and author's institutional affiliation) of articles published in five major national and international sport management journals during the period from 2000-2020. The analysis revealed that research productivity is high in countries such as the U.S., Australia, Canada, the U.K., and Germany. The analysis also revealed that the number of coauthored papers in international journals is increasing. The results of this study are used to suggest measures that may be effective for promoting collaborative research, especially within academic organizations.
