Sports Marketing Network (SMN) is an organisation where physical activity and community sports providers can share best practice on how to become vibrant, visible and viable and develop innovative enterprises.
Community sports clubs across the world are facing unprecedented challenges due to the outbreak of the coronavirus and we all have to adapt and learn from each other.
SMN have great examples of sports clubs engaging with members, partners and the community and displaying leadership and innovation.
- How do we respond now, with clubs, facilities and centres closing down and events and classes, matches and festivals being cancelled?
- How do we prepare for life afterwards? How do we get people back? How will people’s habits change and how can you respond?
- What is our new ‘normal’ going to look like?
SMN have webinars on how community sports clubs can weather the COVID-19 crisis and prepare for the future.
SMN do not claim have all the answers but having worked with more than 4000 community sports clubs across the world they feel that it is important that we all share our thoughts and experiences from across the world. Copenhagen can learn from Sydney who can learn from Manchester, and basketball can learn from street sports and so on.
The format from this series is that you follow the links to SMN’s webinar pages. Each webinar begins with a brief presentation and viewers will then have the opportunity of sharing ideas and experiences on how they are dealing with this issue.
