Review: "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 contemporary 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 to create 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 their unique management, marketing, retention, communication, and administrative needs. 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."--BOOK JACKET.Summary: This resource makes management simple for all club sports, whether a big club with an extensive budget or a local club with limited resources.
