What is Competition Management?

Competition management is the system in place to ensure consistency and quality of competitions at all levels of the Special Olympics Ireland programme including Area, Regional, and/or Special Olympics Ireland events or games.
 
Guidelines have been drawn up and training is offered on an ongoing basis, in an effort to assist the volunteer teams in the planning and preparation of an event.

Special Olympics Ireland has to date:

  • Developed operating models and volunteer structures to provide a clear framework for competition management.
  • Established and trained a support team to implement competition management training to raise standards and ensure consistency and uniformity of competition at all levels.
  • Developed training materials to ensure defined roles and pathways for volunteers working in the area of competition management
