The International Journal of Sport Communication (IJSC) provides a platform for the dissemination of research and information on the unique aspects and divergent activities associated with sport communication. Although many journals cover a single aspect of sport and communication, IJSC is the first to provide an all-encompassing view of the field by covering any topic related to communication in sport, through sport, or in a sport setting. This rigorously reviewed quarterly journal features quantitative and qualitative articles, including cutting-edge research, case studies, and editorials.

IJSC promotes the understanding and advancement of the relationship between sport and communication. The journal has featured special issues on innovative communication in college athletics and social media in sport communication, which examined Facebook, Twitter, blogs, YouTube, and a variety of other media as avenues for scholarly inquiry. The journal will continue to provide coverage of issues in sport communication, including using analysis of social networks, blogs related to mixed martial arts (MMA), women in sport information, multimedia exposure related to the FIFA World Cup, the effect of nationalism bias in mediated sport, and numerous articles on the media coverage surrounding the Summer and Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. Upcoming issues of IJSC will continue to feature interviews, book reviews, and movie reviews.

IJSC is also available in a digital format, providing online subscribers with the same authoritative content of the print edition but with additional advantages, including the ability to search entire issues in seconds and access to all back issues. The content of the online version of IJSC is available weeks before the print version arrives by mail, and online subscribers can receive the table of contents of each issue by e-mail when a new issue has been published. The online format will also welcome the submission and use of digital media to better communicate ideas and information.
