Successful Sports Club Management is a practical guide to taking your sports club to the next level. Whether you’re running a grassroots community club or a professional organisation, this book explains how to achieve sustainable success from the pitch to the boardroom.

Written by a sports industry professional with two decades of experience working in high performance sport, the book introduces the key elements of sports club management, from strategy and finance to governance and facilities. It also takes a deeper dive into some of the areas of sports club management that are often overlooked but that can help a club to take the next leap forward, such as developing an effective youth programme or academy, and how to use performance analysis to support the work of your coaches. Every chapter includes real-world case studies, and the experiences of successful practitioners working across every level of sport are featured throughout the book.

This book is an essential read for any manager, executive, coach or volunteer working in sport who wants to develop better strategies for improving, growing and developing their club or organisation.
