...Sport Management We were given the task to explore three websites that define their own version of what sport management actually in tales and how it is applied in the real world as we know it. The first website we were ask to look through for a definition is called the North American Society for Sport Management. When looking through this site I found they stated that NASSM is actively involved in supporting and assisting professionals working in the fields of sport, leisure and recreation. The purpose of the North American Society for Sport Management is to promote, stimulate, and encourage study, research, scholarly writing, and professional development in the area of sport management - both theoretical and applied aspects (North American Society For Sport Management, 2013). They also have a journal with a mission statement stating; The Journal of Sport Management publishes research and scholarly review articles; short reports on replications, test development, and data reanalysis (Research Notes); editorials that focus on significant issues pertaining to sport management (Sport Management Perspectives); articles aimed at strengthening the link between sport management theory and sport management practice (From the Field); journal abstracts (Sport Management Digest); book reviews (Off the Press); and news items of interest to professionals in sport management (Management Memos) (North American Society For Sport Management, 2013). I believe this is a well-grounded definition...

...Sports Management | Dominic Hogan | MGT 415 Group Behavior in Organizations | | Laurence Rice | 3/4/2014 | As a sport organization a lot of the focus is around the players. Many organizations have internal issues that may be due to the action of players. For a team to operate properly not only do the players need to work as a unit but also the organization as a hole from day today. Sports teams deal with many random situations such as injuries, media outburst, haggling fans, as well as financial dilemmas. Players and team representatives face the same issues the only difference is players are in the constant spotlight. The organization as a whole has to come together to reduce conflict within the organization from each dilemma. As players on a team most of the athletes understand their role on the team as they get more or less playing time. This method applies the coaches, recruiters, and other management role in the organization. The organization should take a team role. “A team role was defined as a pattern of behavior characteristic of the way in which one team member interacts with another in order to facilitate the progress of the team as a whole (Aritzeta)”. Helping each other build and work as on unit is sports organizations goal in order to get one step closer to being the best each year. “Team role preference is related to Dominating, Integrating, Avoiding, Compromising and Obliging conflict management styles” (Aritzeta). Each individual is treating...

...My major is Sports Management. It is within the Education and Human Ecology. It is designed to benefit me within all aspects of a sport franchise, especially in the management field. The type of career I would like to have is a great question to answer. I would be satisfied with being involved in any aspect of a franchise, but I would prefer to be involved in marketing for the team. One day, I would like to be receiving an abundant income working for a franchise as any person would wish, enjoy the work I am doing, but my ultimate career goal is to be the happiest person I could possible be while providing for my family. I feel that the 5 strengths thoroughly benefit the career I have chosen. In my field, sports management, I feel that you need to be a leader. Personally, I feel that the qualities of an achiever, relator, arranger, intellection, and ideation provide the groundwork of how I perceive a successful leader to be. Whomever may be in charge, in my opinion, should strive to consistently achieve, but also be somebody who others can relate to. A person whom another individual knows they can go to when faced with adversity. A leader should also have insightful ideas, a witty intellect, and be arranging the tasks at hand in the most productive way possible. These 5 strengths will affect my work ethic positively. With this information about myself, I can use my strengths to my advantage throughout my work career. I have the understanding that I want to achieve as much...

...Author | Honeybourne, John | Title | BTEC national sport : award, certificate, diploma / John Honeybourne | Publisher | Cheltenham : Nelson Thornes, c2003 | According to the basic tenets derived from this research, optimum performance should be seen at levels of moderate arousal. As arousal approaches extremes (a comatose state on one end and panic attack on the other), performance will decline accordingly. The end result is a curvilinear relationship between arousal and performance that resembles an inverted-U. Landers & Arent, 2001 If the task is complex, requiring fine motor skill, the optimal level of arousal is low. If the task is relatively simple, requiring gross motor skill, the optimal level of arousal is high. Suggested 'complex' tasks are performed better when one's level of drive (arousal) is low, while 'simple' tasks are performed better when arousal/drive is high. There are different degrees of arousal (over/under arousal) and people can be affected in different ways, depending on the type of tasks they face. See graph (pg 583) The relationship between arousal and performance is curvilinear (inverted u shape of graph) 'Increased arousal improves performance up to a certain point after which further increased levels of arousal will have an adverse effect' - i.e both over and under arousal can inhibit performances. Implications: Optimum levels of arousal are not the same for all activities or all performers Optimum levels of arousal...

...Marketing 4/11/12 Kobe Vs. LeBron in the Market World Two of the biggest names in the NBA are Kobe Bryant and LeBron James. With both men playing in very lively cities, Los Angeles, California and Miami, Florida both Kobe and LeBron are very marketable players. Seeing them both in the cities on billboards, commercials, or hosting events or charities is very likely. Since both are the league’s biggest names, which one is the most marketable? Taking into consideration that does the most work in the community, commercials, billboards, and media interviews, will measure who is the more marketable player. Kobe and LeBron have been compared time after time, because they are both future hall of famer’s. Both have very respectful spots on Sports Illustrated’s Fortune 50 list. Kobe, was placed at number six with a total of 10 million from endorsements last year. But Kobe being a more “seasoned” veteran than LeBron, has had many endorsement deals. The Bleacherreport.com reports in February of 2001 Kobe signed a deal with McDonald’s for 10 million dollars (http://bleacherreport.com). McDonald’s was promoting a new meal called the Big N’ Tasty and Kobe was the front of it all. Kobe has had video games with Nintendo but he was more loved for his role in the world famous game Call of Duty: Black Ops in 2010. With Black Mamba written on the side of his gun, Kobe has his own featured scene. A very key endorsement for Kobe Bryant was Adidas. This was a deal he signed before his rookie season...

...safety, water rescue, lifesaving, lifeguarding, and lifesaving sport’ (www.ilsf.org). What are their likely source of income, and why? Lifesaving clubs and agencies rely heavily on the supply of public funding by the government. The costs associated with the development of sport such as building or improvement of facilities is usually funded by the government. The government/State heavily funds lifesaving clubs and agencies. It is because the State believes that it can improve the well being of society by its various interventions. (Hoye, Russel. 2006, p. 20). This type of intervention falls under the neo-liberalism ideology. It was found that ‘neo-liberals believe government should not engage directly in most economic activity, but rather provide only base level infrastructure, legislative guidelines within which private business can thrive’ (Hoye, Russel. 2006, p. 27). How feasible would it to get the people being rescued to actually fund the operations of lifesaving clubs and agencies? It will not be feasible for the people being rescued to fund the operations because the cost of running the lifesaving clubs and agencies are huge. The amount of money channelled to the lifesaving clubs and agencies by the State to the clubs e.g. SLSA totalled to AUS$ 30 million. Why should governments want to fund lifesaving clubs and agencies? Government should fund lifesaving clubs and agencies because sport is a public good. It is described that “public goods can provide...

...The Simple Plan Run Smart, and Slim Down Eat Right, The Simple Plan From the editors of r 1 The Simple Plan Your Personal Calorie number Before you start figuring how you’re going to create a calorie deficit, you need to know how many calories your body requires to maintain the weight you are now. That calorie number is unique to you. It depends on many things—your size, your gender, your age, and how active you are. Roughly speaking, the more active you are and the younger you are, the more calories it takes to maintain your current weight. Bigger folks need more calories to fuel them; as they start to lose pounds, they’ll require fewer. Just go to www.runnersworld.com/ rybo and go to the basal metabolic rate (BMR) calculator, where you can enter your numbers. This tool measures how many calories you need each day to maintain your current weight if you’re sitting around doing absolutely nothing—and how many you need if you’re more active. Once you know how many calories you need to maintain your weight, you can make some well-informed decisions about the food you’re consuming and your exercise. You can eat less or move more to get the scale to move, too. n Calorie Math: A Quick Review Let’s strip this idea down to the simplest possible terms. Your body burns calories every day. If you eat more calories than your body burns, those calories are stored on the body as fat. If you eat fewer calories than your body burns, you lose fat. In other words, a calorie...

...Sports Marketing Plan Richard Fernandez SPM/250 05/12/2012 Michael Kennedy Sports Marketing Plan The Houston Texans are an organization in the NFL that is continuously trying to improve and draw more fans. The Texans have seen their winning percentage increase in each of the last couple of years and want to continue to see that happen. Part of the Texans success comes from the fans that support the organization through both good and bad times. The Texans mission statement has changed over the years but it now states that their goal is to be the most valuable franchise in the NFL. The Texans have no problem selling out games, but they do have one measurable goal. Their goal has remained the same for the past couple of years and that is to reach the postseason. The Texans know that in order to reach their mission statement they must eliminate some in state competition known as the Dallas Cowboys. The Houston Texans have a historical trend of not making the playoffs and having the majority of the state express themselves as Dallas Cowboy fans. The internal contingencies that affect the Texans are simply the organizational leadership. These individuals affect the organization because they are the ones that make the decisions that can directly affect the interest of fans. The major external contingency that the Texans have to deal with is the amount of media attention given to the Cowboys versus that given to them. Part of this is probably because the Cowboys have had more...

...The next generation of sports managers will have a lot of new challenges to face, and some challenges that aren’t so new. Integral to earning and using your degree in sports management is a fundamental knowledge and understanding of the most important elements of any franchise – the athletes. Confronting the challenges these figures have and continue to face are an important part of any sports management position. One such challenge is the disparity in pay among male and female athletes. The income gap between men and women athletes, is on average only 77% of what their male counterparts earn. However, the gap is much wider in the world of elite sports, where female athletes earn just a fraction of what men earn in the same profession. The inequality...

...Risk Management in Sports The field of play should be checked before and after all practices and events for any obstacles. An indoor court should be clear of any obstacles or obstructions surrounding the out-of-bounds areas. The actual playing surface should be clear, safe and dry. All lines should be clearly visible. Any indoor facility must have proper ventilation, especially in warm climates. Outdoor facilities should be checked for uneven playing surfaces, including holes, uneven grade, or moisture. The playing area should be also checked for additional obstacles. Out-of-bounds areas should be clear of obstructions. All boundaries should be clearly marked. Other areas being used by players, such as locker rooms and showers, should be reviewed for safety and accessibility. Floors should be properly drained and have nonslip surfaces. Areas utilized by spectators, families and other nonparticipating players should be assessed for safety and accessibility. The coaching staff is responsible for all their athletes when traveling to play and compete. The coach should review any special instructions for each player with the parents or guardian. Written instructions for any medications should be reviewed and taken on the trip. Transportation should be adequate for all players. The mode of transportation should be safe, as should any drivers. Weather conditions should be reviewed before leaving for any competition. The coach should contact the opposing team’s coach to review...

...Potential Careers in Sports Management Esther Cole University of Incarnate Word This is my very first course in sports management and I have learned that there are many paths I could take once I graduate. Right now it is too early to feel passionate about any one career path. I will discuss various careers in sports management and I how feel about them now as I am just starting out. I hope to look back at this paper when I am finished and see if my views and opinions have changed. The Number of students who decide to get a MBA in sports management has grown significantly since the recession. A Ba in sports management was not producing jobs that many hopeful students thought it would. The sports industry was not immune to the recession like many people thought. Some people thought that the sports business would never feel the effects of the recession but they were wrong. Both the NBA and the NFL cut jobs during the recession and this caused a ripple effect with new graduates. They were forced to take low paying jobs working in the industry but as ticket sellers or working in the concessions. Still others who felt there was no other option took unpaid internships in the hope of landing a job afterward (Belson, 2009). Sports management degrees date back to the 1970’s with a rocky start. The degree was not seen as legitimate, “many academics mocked them for teaching how to mix Gatorade” (Wecker, 2011). The program has come a long way and has advanced into a masters level and...

Utilizing the means of the Competencies of Sport Managers device, the competencies of sport administrators and managers were represented by four factors, identified as Management Techniques, sport programming, business administration, and theoretical perspectives. Discriminant analysis revealed that sport administrators in campus recreation settings placed more emphasis on theoretical perspectives and less emphasis on sport programming. When compared to sport management, administrators in the promotions departments placed more emphasis on sport programming and theoretical perspectives, with faculty placing more emphasis on management techniques and business administration.
