Pre-Conference Workshop #1: Best Practices in Youth Sports Management

11:00am-4:00pm / Wildwood 10 / .4 CEU

Youth sports either run like clockwork or they are a recreation professional’s biggest headache. Join our panel of speakers for a pre-conference session covering program structure, field logistics, safety, behavior management, and contracts, as well as managing coaches and coordinating leagues. We’ll share resources and include some lessons learned. Leave with ideas you can implement to enhance your agency’s youth sport management.

1. Identify resources to improve one area of youth sport management.
2. Evaluate best practices for contracts with independent sport organizations/leagues.
3. Determine areas of youth sport management to address in your own organization over the next year.
