Abstract

Small-scale sporting events are often characterized as local activities limited in size, support, and resources. However, they fulfill an integral social role in the vibrant lives of local communities. Sports events also attract visitors as participants and spectators, benefitting the local economy and supporting tourism activities. To deliver successful events, coordinated marketing activities should be developed in a cohesive marketing plan. Every sports organization can implement effective marketing tools to increase the visibility of their event and enhance satisfaction among a variety of key stakeholders. This chapter outlines a manageable plan of marketing activities that will improve the odds of a successful event.
