The 2018 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 is based heavily on the
New England Symposium on Statistics in Sports.
While normally held biennially in September, CASSIS has been moved to August 3 in 2018 to coincide with JSM, being held July 28 - August 2, 2018 in Vancouver.

The program consists of two keynote talks, a panel, and 15 technical presentations. Throughout the program, posters will be on display.
CASSIS will be held at SFU Harbour Center in downtown Vancouver on Friday, August 3, 2018.
There are dozens of hotels within walking distance of the conference location. Book early, as Vancouver is a popular tourist destination in August.
Most participants will arrive via YVR Vancouver Airport. From the airport, you may take a taxi downtown (about $40 CAD) or take the Canada Line ($9 CAD), exiting at Waterfront Station, which is 1 block from the conference venue. Don't hesitate to contact us with questions:
