Over the years, I liked to toy around with Excel worksheets to develop simple tools that can assist Sport Managers. My rate-limiting step was always my competence using Excel. With the advent of A.I., I have been able to develop some of these tools further so that online Apps are no longer needed to use them. Many of the tools employ a Gap Analysis. The best use of them is just to go through the process. Whether you use the outputs or not is entirely optional. However, going through the process does reveal information and ideas that good sport managers will find useful. Feel free to download and use as you wish, and if they are helpful to you, a simple acknowledgement of source would be much appreciated.
Organisational Gap Analysis Tools
Sport Tournament Draw Sheets
Organising tournaments can be a pain. The aim of these spreadsheets is to make your life easier by setting up tournament and league draws the way you need them. The first three are generic sheets that you can set up with multiple combinations of pools and teams per pool, to suit your needs. After that, some specifically formatted tournament and league sheets are provided.
Strategic Management spreadsheets
The following spreadsheets are developed to assist sport managers to systematically progress through the steps needed to prepare strategic plans and operations manuals. They are a work in progress, so do check back occasionally.
Email me at b.minikin56@gmail.com with any suggested improvements or any help needed.
Athlete Development Tools
The following tools are designed to help analyse, plan, develop and optimise the progress of athletes both individually and within the athlete environment. These tools can be linked to each other as well and individual tools are explained in the IADT Control document.
Leadership Development
These leadership development tools are ideally used as part of a development course and were developed for that purpose. However, they can be used as standalone development resources.
