Welcome to CCPR’s member support initiative- Smart Sport
Governing, administering and running a sport or recreation organisation is increasingly challenging. New laws, legislation and red tape are constantly emerging and there are frequent calls from Government to modernise. The pressure to put the necessary systems and structures in place to lead and develop their sport can be overwhelming particularly for the people, often volunteers, in small organisations.
Help is at hand! As part of CCPR's support for its Member Organisations, this section of the website is designed to provide you with a range of pick-and-mix business solutions in the form of guidelines, templates and practical examples in the following areas:
Corporate Governance
Risk Management
Environmental Awareness
Human Resources (Employment and Volunteers)
Financial Management
Marketing and Communication
Equality
Child Protection
In order to give guidance on what would make an organisation more efficient and effective, a model has been prepared which recognises the key components of running and managing a sport. Not every aspect of this model will be relevant to all organisations, however it provides you with guidance to identify where improvements are necessary and how to take action to achieve them.
This is not the definitive answer, but does provide a tool to help you with the process of continuing development and improvement of the overall performance of your organisation. If your organisation has any examples of good practice that you would like us to include - please email us through the 'Contact Us' facility. We would also appreciate any feedback that will help us to further develop the site in general. >>
