sports development
In this assignment I will look at the key providers of sports
development. I will describe them and look into their
structure and their role as providers.
2.1 Providers
The three schemes I have chosen to look into are;
1. Governing Bodies.
2. Private sector providers.
3. National organisations.
2.2 Structure
All organisations have a structure or set up that staff
needs to follow to help deliver their programmes. This
gives lines of communication and authority, defines roles
and makes links to the outside organisation.
Committees
Some organisations have committees. This is most
common for the voluntary sector. It is usually made up of
3 people; A chairperson, treasurer and secretary. The
chairperson will have overall leadership of the
organisation, the treasurer looks after the financial
business and the secretary does the admin and
communication work. The committees make the decisions
Working groups
This structure has a looser arrangement than a committee
and is often found where organisations work in
partnership. They function by each partner sending a
representative to work with the others in the group. This
makes sure that all parties involved are kept informed and
are able to achieve the aims set out by the scheme. They
don’t usually tend to have decision making powers.
The working group is the centre where it begins. They
send out – Coaches, representatives of sponsors, local
authority officers and other partners or stakeholders.
‘5x60 and Dragon sport’ are examples of schemes which
may use this structure.
Forums
These are sets of people who tend to be experts on the
issues involved with sports development. These people
often meet and discuss any issues and suggest ways of
improving sports development. They are not the actual
people who make the changes but they do all the thinking
for the organisations so they can take the ideas and put
them into action. Here is a list of the people who may
attend a forum meeting;
