THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - s4story -- When people think of professional sports, they envision the competition: the games and matches that happen on the field of play. But there is a vast network of behind-the-scenes leadership and staff who manage the players, control the finances and promote the games.

At California Lutheran University's Business of Sports Event, Angel City Football Club (ACFC) executives for the professional women's soccer team will sit down with Mark Orlando, director of the sports management program at Cal Lutheran's School of Management, for an in-depth discussion of the business side of sports. The free event for students and the community will be from 5:45 – 7:30 p.m. on April 17 at the Gilbert Sports and Fitness Center on the California Lutheran University campus.
