Sports occupations and roles

I think that in order to be a successful athletic director, one needs to keep the functional areas of sport management in mind. These four areas include: planning, organizing, leading, and evaluating (Masteralexis, Barr, & Hums, 2015). The first aspect of planning is something that athletic directors’ need to be very good at doing. An athletic director needs

decisions to be made in regards to how they spend their money. Keeping the athletics teams at Division I was going to be expensive so by 1973, all but the men and women’s tennis teams were going to move to NCAA Division III, a non-scholarship level of sport competition. After the decision was made, the athletics department suffered a huge loss of participation due to the students feeling like they weren’t getting anything out of being a part of the team without the scholarship.

Gender roles resurfaced as a pivotal factor in my life during my late adolescence. In our culture different sports are considered to be male and female dominated respectively. Unfortunately little is done to challenge or resist these societal norms and I experienced this first hand during my senior year of high school. Volleyball, which is considered to be a sport primarily for girls and women, was not offered to boys at my high school. Subsequently, I was forced to petition for approval towards

As a coach, I want what is best for my players and I want them to truly love the sport. If they come to love the sport and would like to play on in college, I want them to be able to have that opportunity.
