Strategy and Planning

A structured plan of attack lets you know what changes your club wants to see, how you think you can achieve those changes and provides a way of checking that your agreed ideas turn into a reality. From club leadership and management perspectives, you can plan your expenditure and prioritise your actions based on the growth you can expect to see within your club. It also helps you monitor and evaluate progress and take each task step-by-step.
