Submit your presentation abstract for 2027 SABR Analytics Conference
SEPTEMBER 23, 2026 — SABR is excited to announce the call for research presentations, presented by Teamworks Intelligence, for the SABR Analytics Conference, which will be held on March 12–14, 2027, in Phoenix, Arizona.
The SABR Analytics Conference brings together the leading minds in baseball analytics to discuss and debate topics relevant to the quantitative analysis of the game of baseball, including aspects of innovation and technology.
Abstracts of proposed research presentations should be no more than 500 words in length, and must include the abstract’s title, review of previous work on the subject, a summary of the research methodology and preliminary and/or final results, and the expected contribution to the field of baseball analytics offered by this work. Please send all abstracts to this e-mail address: analytics-presentations@sabr.org. Please clearly indicate whether you are submitting for the general track or for the student track of presentations. General-track presenters will be responsible for submitting a full research paper after their abstracts are evaluated, while student-track presenters will submit a sample PowerPoint presentation file.
The submission deadline for all 2027 SABR Analytics Conference presentation abstracts is 11:59 p.m. MST on Wednesday, November 25, 2026. See the timeline below for more details on the evaluation and selection process. Note: If your presentation is accepted, you will be required to register for the conference in order to present.
Research can be focused on any area of baseball, including player evaluation or business practices. Submissions will be evaluated based on originality, validity, and applicability of the research along with other relevant factors.
When submitting an abstract, the author should describe anticipated audio-visual needs if the abstract is accepted as an oral presentation. If your work will require something different than a PowerPoint slideshow, please let us know in advance.
All student biomechanics research submitted for consideration for the SABR Analytics Conference will be eligible for the Dr. Mike Marshall Baseball Biomechanics Research Award, which comes with a cash prize of at least $2,000 per year.
As the leader in integrated technology for elite sports, Teamworks brings the industry-leading analytics team behind Teamworks Intelligence to this year’s research initiative. SABR has long set the standard for advancing baseball scholarship, and together they are highlighting cutting-edge research that continues to push the boundaries of performance, strategy, and innovation in the game.
Early registration for the conference will be open next week at SABR.org/analytics.
