Are you a manager
or a volunteer busy running the show around a sports club? Here are
some handy tips that will help you save time, keep you better
organized, reduce stress and get others to get involved and help out
too.
Planning is
the key
Before you get in
the day to day grind of sports club routine, take out some time to
sit and plan. Write down your expectations from the season. Break the
overall objective into small objective by asking ‘how’ at every
step. For instance you plan to have a ‘successful season’, ask
yourself how will this happen. Break it down to minimum number of
wins required per team, then number of new enrollments required, then
training specifics, games, practice all of that can be defined.
Block time
for volunteering
Since you are
volunteering, it is possible that you have a day job, and your
personal/family time. There’s a fair chance you’ll always be
pressed for time. Before you get into making a schedule for your
club, make one for yourself. Block out the time for sports
management, and don’t let anything else get in this time slot. Only
when you make a strict routine, will you be able to effectively
manage things both personally and professionally.
Delegate
The ultimate time
saver is having someone help with a task. Make a list of things that
you are okay to delegate. Give necessary training/instructions, and
use the saved time to concentrate on critical tasks at hand.
Get
