Sport clubs are firmly established and play an important role in
the development of athletes. However, few resources are available
for those responsible for organizing, developing, and managing club
sports. "Sport Club Management" provides
administrators, managers, and coaches with the background and
examples necessary for running a sport club by considering its
unique demands. With this outstanding guide, leaders have the tools
to develop and sustain organizations that are viable and
financially successful and that satisfy the needs of athletes and
those who support them.
This resource breaks down the complex fundamentals of management
for all club sports--whether a multi-age-level program with an
extensive budget or a local club with limited resources. Those who
manage and lead clubs will find that they can develop a successful
business plan without sacrificing their player development program
or their club mission. In addition, they'll gain the latest
information on creating a distinctive club culture, organize their
procedures, and encourage profitability by running the organization
using a business mentality.
Unlike most books written for sport club managers, this resource
recognizes the responsibilities of leaders and administrators by
extending beyond the coaching level. In addition to player
development, the content focuses on successful business tactics as
they relate to sport clubs, including how to meet the management,
marketing, retention, communication, and administrative needs of
the organization. The book also provides advice on determining the
organizational structure of the club, hiring effective leaders,
understanding parental relationships, and facing legal and ethical
issues. Every chapter in the book includes reader-friendly features
that aid in comprehension:
- Thought-provoking opening scenarios, revisited at the
chapter's end, draw readers in and invite them to consider how they
would respond to similar situations.
- Successful Strategies sidebars discuss real-world examples of
issues a club manager might face and how those issues were
resolved.
- Numerous reproducible sample forms make it easy for readers to
implement new strategies based on the administrative needs of their
own clubs.
"Sport Club Management "expertly shows readers how to run a
club in today's demanding, high-tech environment. With this guide,
leaders will be able to communicate their club's mission, establish
its brand, and bring in the revenue required to ensure long-term
success.
