The 2022 Cascadia Symposium on Statistics in Sports is a meeting of statisticians and quantitative analysts connected with sports teams, sports media, and universities to discuss common problems of interest in statistical modeling and analysis of sports data. The symposium format is a mixture of invited talks, a poster session, and a panel discussion.
Founded in 2016, CASSIS alternates years with the
New England Symposium on Statistics in Sports,
held in odd-numbered years in Boston.

Associated with the Cascadia Symposium on Statistics in Sport (CASSIS), an additional day of training will be held for undergraduate and graduate students with an interest in sports analytics, sponsored by the University of Toronto Sports Analytics Group (UTSPAN) through the Connaught Fund.
The program will consist of a day’s training on Friday September 23, 2022 at SFU Burnaby. The training will include introduction to practical data science tools in sports analytics, some collaborative work on a sports analytics problem and talks on current topics in sports analytics. The students will then attend the CASSIS conference at Harbour Centre (Vancouver) on Saturday September 24, 2022. Students should bring a laptop computer to the training session.
Applications for this training and the associated funding have now passed. Please direct any any questions to utspan@utoronto.ca
The program consists of a plenary discussion, a panel, and 10 technical presentations. Throughout the program, posters will be on display. Note the exact ordering and times below are subject to change.
CASSIS will be held at SFU Harbour Center in downtown Vancouver on Saturday, September 24, 2022.
Most participants will arrive via YVR Vancouver Airport. From the airport, you may take a taxi downtown, or take the Canada Line, exiting at Waterfront Station, which is 1 block from the conference venue.
There are dozens of hotels within walking distance of the conference location. Book early, as Vancouver is a popular tourist destination. For more affordable options, note that SFU Harbour Centre is very close to the sky train station with frequent trains to Richmond, Burnaby, and beyond. Don't hesitate to contact us with questions:
