Lesson 1:
UNDERSTANDING The NATURE Of RECREATION
A. Recreation and Recreational Activities
Recreation is a leisure activity, with leisure being unstructured time. The
"desire to do something for recreation" is an important component of human biology
and psychology because it encompasses activities for people of all ages (children,
senior citizens, etc.) as well as various unique populations (physically handicapped,
mentally retarded, etc.).
Recreation is defined as time spent engaging in an activity that one enjoys in
order to feel rejuvenated. Furthermore, it improves an individual's task performance. It
is used to "recharge the batteries" in order to boost work performance.
Recreational Activities - are often done for enjoyment, amusement, or
pleasure and are considered "fun." Especially when done outdoors, recreational
activities can greatly improve physical health. People who participate in park activities

F. Recreation for the Handicaps

Recreational activities might be tailored for specific instances that necessitate a unique
distribution strategy. The following are some examples of special conditions that
necessitate therapeutic recreational activities:

Special Cases Therapeutic Recreation Services

(Physically Challenged)

1. Single- Leg Amputees Archery, Dancing, Bowling, Golf, Swimming,

Diving, Camping, Baseball, Fishing, Bicycling

2. Single- Arm Amputee Badminton, Baseball, Basketball, Diving,

Fencing, Hiking, Skating, Fishing, Track

3. Deaf or Hearing-Impaired Fishing, Bowling, Diving, Golf, Soccer,

Horseback Riding, Camping, Basketball,
Fencing, Tumbling

4. Blind/ Vision Impaired Singing, Playing Instrument, Dancing,

Board Games
Recreation provides numerous health benefits, and as a result, recreational
therapy has been developed to capitalize on this effect. This type of therapy is used in
rehabilitation, as well as in the care of the aged, the disabled, and persons suffering
from chronic conditions. Recreational physical exercise is crucial for reducing obesity,
osteoporosis, and cancer risk, most notably in males for colon and prostate cancer,
and in women for breast cancer; however, not all malignancies are reduced, as outdoor
leisure has been associated to an increased risk of melanoma.

G. The Organized Recreation

Many recreational activities are arranged, usually by public organizations,
volunteer groups, private organizations sponsored by membership fees, and
commercial enterprises. The National Park Service, the YMCA, Kiwanis, and Disney
World are all examples of this.

The Organized Recreation as a Career

A recreation specialist is responsible for meeting the recreational needs of a
community or a specific interest group. Educational institutions provide courses that
lead to a Bachelor of Arts degree in recreation management. People with such degrees
are frequently employed at parks and recreation facilities in towns, where they work on
community projects and events. Networking with instructors, budgeting, and evaluation
of continuing programs are common job duties.

Most states in the United States have a professional association that provides
ongoing education and certification in recreation management. The National
Recreation and Park Association sponsors the CPRP (Certified Park and Recreation
Professional) certification program, which is regarded a national standard for
professional recreation specialist practices.

An activity selected for enjoyment, relaxation, or other emotional gratification,
usually after work and other responsibilities have been completed. The fundamental
goal is to give you a sense of self. There are two kinds of leisure activities.

Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

B. Two (2) Types of Leisure Activities

1. Active Leisure – an activity that requires the use of physical or mental energy,
which frequently overlaps with leisure activities and usually takes place outside of your
home and with other people. (For example, volunteering, hobbies, and fitness, among
other things.)

2. Passive Leisure - entails activities that require little or no physical or mental effort.
(For example, reading books, watching movies, etc.)

magazine.html

C. Understanding Leisure as a Recreational Activity

Leisure can also be defined as activities that people do in their spare time that
are not work-related or do not involve life-maintenance tasks such as housecleaning
or sleeping. Leisure as activity comprises activities that we engage in for a variety of
purposes such as relaxation, competitiveness, or growth, and may include activities
such as reading for pleasure, meditating, drawing, and engaging in sports.
This definition simply asserts that certain activities qualify as leisure since they
occur during time away from work and are not undertaken for the purpose of survival.
However, as many have noted, it is incredibly difficult to compile a list of activities that
everyone believes symbolizes leisure—to some, an activity may be a leisure activity,
while to others, it may not be a leisure activity. As a result, under this definition, the
distinction between work and leisure is blurred, as what is leisure to some may be work
to others, and vice versa.
Leisure has arisen as a distinct social institution, serving as a vehicle for self-
improvement and expression in the same way that labor does. Leisure fosters a sense
of creativity, control, and accomplishment. It enables us to appreciate new
experiences, challenges, and adventures. Whatever we do in our spare time helps us
shape our lives as humans. It has an impact on life satisfaction and quality of life. It is
during leisure that man discovers prospects for self-development, which contribute to
the overall improvement of their community. In fact, the origins of group and societal
culture can be traced back to leisure.

15
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Humans place a high value on leisure. Policymakers should make purposeful

efforts to ensure that constructive leisure activity programs are put in place so that
individuals can reap the great benefits that come with active involvement. An accurate
understanding of the meaning of leisure will have a positive impact on its organization,
growth, and development in any society.

D. Leisure in Every Phase of Life

"Leisure Life" represents a country's ideals and character. According to the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, leisure is a human right.

► Leisure in Kids Life

Play is a child's primary occupation. Children learn and practice new skills,
create friends, and develop a sense of self via play.
Children learn about the world through play. They learn about the world and
the impact they can have on the environment via inquisitive play. This sort of play
begins very early in a child's life and is one of the very first types of play they encounter.
Exploratory play requires the youngster to use all of their senses.
They will investigate objects by looking at them, touching them (with their hands
and mouths), listening to them, and moving them to learn about how they can influence
the environment around them. Sand, water, and dirty play are examples of this style of
play.
Through functional play, children learn about objects and how to use them.
They use toys or objects in the way that they were designed to be used. They'll be
rolling a ball and stacking blocks.
This sort of play is also known as manipulative play. A youngster manipulates
toys and items with their hands to learn how to use them. Construction play, arts and
crafts, and tool use (e.g., scissors) all contribute to the development of eye-hand
coordination.
Through vigorous and intense play, children learn about how the body operates
and moves. They are taught to sprint, jump, toss and catch, and kick. It can entail
mastering ball sports, playground equipment, riding a scooter, or riding a bike, among
other things.
Active and Energetic Play evolves into sporting, fitness, and exercise activities
that are enjoyed by both children and adults, such as football, rugby, tennis, swimming,
dance, and martial arts.
Smiling and cooing, mimicking, and peek-a-boo are all examples of early social
play. Children then learn to share toys with others while playing, and they continue to
acquire social skills such as taking turns and following the rules. As children grow and
mature, their play shifts from solitary to parallel to social (where children play alongside
but not with each other) (where children share and interact directly).
For young people, a major portion of their free time is spent with friends
participating in activities they like doing together. They may not see it as 'play,' but it is
still classified as social engagement.
Children learn to express themselves and take on adult and cultural
responsibilities through pretend play. Children begin by impersonating normal
activities, and later they participate and play with figures/dolls/teddies. They then

16
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

incorporate pretend play into action sequences before participating in pretend games
with other children.

► Leisure in Teenager/Young Adult Life

Every adolescent is unique. However, many people prefer spending their
leisure time shopping, going to parties, hanging out with friends, gaming and utilizing
social media, texting, watching movies, reading, and going to the beach or park.
Teenagers are increasingly devoting more of their leisure time to planned
extracurricular activities such as arts and sports. Spending leisure time together is an
excellent method to maintain contact with your adolescent child.
A teenager child may like doing something one-on-one with his or her parents.
They could go to a movie or a concert together, cook a meal together, go at family
photos together, or work on a project together, such as redecorating a child's room. It
all relies on the child's best interests.
Some activities that the entire family could participate in include:
 watching a family-friendly movie
 going on a picnic
 participating in a favorite sport or activity, such as soccer or Frisbee, at a
nearby park
 organizing a special meal in which everyone contributes a dish
 organizing a vacation
 on a bike ride.

► Leisure in Adult Life

There are a range of fun activities that older individuals can participate in to
keep their bodies and minds strong. Doing preferred hobbies, such as producing art or
exploring the outdoors with friends and family, might improve their general well-being.
Here are six options to examine for seniors in need of leisure activity ideas.

1. Birdwatching. Birdwatching can be as simple as sitting in a chair and

watching birds at a feeder or as complex as traversing outside routes in search of
certain bird species. Whether your aging loved one is a novice or a seasoned birder,
every day presents an opportunity to learn something new about bird behavior.
Learning new things can help to keep one's mind healthy and active, which is essential
for one's general well-being.

2. Swimming. Swimming may improve circulation and flexibility, and it is

especially beneficial for seniors with arthritis because it does not put pressure on the
joints. Swimming can also be a social exercise for seniors because they can interact
with others in the water.

3. Assembling Jigsaw Puzzles. For a senior, putting together a puzzle with a

beloved photo or location can be a joyful and satisfying experience.
As he or she searches for the correct fit to finish the puzzle, the activity can improve
your loved one's memory and problem-solving skills. Puzzles with larger-than-normal
pieces are also available for elderly individuals with limited vision.

17
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

4. Fishing. Fishing is a great way to mingle, get some exercise, and enjoy the
outdoors. Walking to a favorite fishing area gets the blood flowing, and casting and
reeling for hours on end trains the arms and hands while giving activity.
It is also beneficial for increasing hand strength and fine motor abilities without
putting too much strain on aging joints.

5. Taking Pictures. Learning photography could boost one’s self-esteem and

offer a sense of accomplishment. When starting the journey of successful photo taking,
you will learn basic photography skills and how to use camera correctly to get the best
photos.
6. Gardening. Seniors can create a garden on a small patch of lawn or a
container garden inside their home. Planting, weeding, and watering can enhance
flexibility, mental health, and coordination. For older adults working in outdoor gardens,
being in nature and having something satisfying to do can promote relaxation and
reduce stress.

► Leisure in Marriage Life

When the kids aren't around, it's tempting to sit and do nothing for a while.
However, if you do not take advantage of those stolen moments with each other, your
marriage can quickly become stagnant. Balancing married life with exciting activities
that couples should undertake together right now to build their bond.

Make plans for a date night. A spontaneous date night is always appreciated,
as is a planned date night.
Exercise. Many of the finest workouts for women are also fantastic activities
for guys. Join forces and exercise as a group. Not only do they want to spend time
together, but they also want to get in better shape.
Cook. Bring out the measuring cups and cookbooks to spice things up in the
kitchen.
Redecorate. Choose an area to refurbish; it might be a space that needs
organizing, and a makeover is a fantastic motivator. It is not necessary to be a master
interior designer to decorate a room. It is about spending time together while working
on something and having fun at the same time.
Blogging/Vlogging. Try something new and collaborate on a blog. Consider
subjects for co-blogging, ranging from mutual hobbies to a "she said/he said" style of
blog. Then, collaborate to create a blog design, select a template, and begin blogging.
Read a good book. Curl up on the couch or in bed with a book and read it
together. Read aloud or quietly together.
Relax. The majority of people will not jump at the chance to spend their leisure
time at a spa. However, persuading them to have an at-home spa day where they can
both relax and spend time together. Alternatively, put on some soothing music, dim the
lights, and snuggle up on the couch with each other to decompress.
Take up new interests. Find a point of commonality and hunt for things that
you can do together. A simple connection, such as birdwatching on a nature walk,
could exist.
Play video games. Save some of your game time. Playing together or sitting
down for some face-to-face time with the greatest card and board games may be a

18
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

terrific stress reliever, with plenty of opportunities to laugh and test the competitive
spirit.
Watch television and movies. It's one of the simplest things you can do at the
end of a long day. It's also a fantastic opportunity to snuggle and bond while doing
something mundane like watching TV or a movie.
Examine Your Life. We've spent many years together, and there will be many
more to come. Take some time to reflect on your life together. Take out old photo
albums and look at the first photos together. Look at places you've been as a couple
over the years and keep flipping through the pages until you reach the most recent
images as a family.
Get out. A romantic retreat provides some valuable time away from familiar
surroundings.
Renew Your Promises. Renewing vows is a wonderful way to remind each
other of your commitment to one another. Every day is a day to celebrate marriage
and family. Celebrate those special moments. Marking the calendar to commemorate
the first date, the date of engagement, and, of course, the wedding. Also, remember
to commemorate other significant events in your life. Cook a special lunch to
commemorate your partner's promotion.

► Leisure in Retirement Life

Seniors who stay active and engaged through hobbies, regular exercise, travel,
and leisure report feeling happier and healthier overall, and numerous studies back up
these statements. Keeping the mind busy and intellectually engaged appears to aid in
the prevention and progression of many memory-related problems, and may even
improve cognition. According to the National Institute on Aging, seniors who stay
physically active have higher overall vitality and strength, as well as a lower chance of
diabetes, heart disease, and other health-related disorders. Here are some leisure
activities that active seniors enjoy.
Among these categories of senior leisure activities are:
Arts & crafts cover anything from painting, scrapbooking, photography, and
sculpting to crocheting, sewing, and needlepoint. Crafting is a popular activity among
seniors who wish to keep their minds and hands engaged.
Dancing. Cutting a rug on occasion is a terrific kind of exercise that improves
cardiovascular health and balance, lowering the risk of falls and fractures.
Furthermore, taking a spin around the dance floor has been linked to a lower incidence
of dementia—not to mention it's a lot of fun and a fantastic way to meet new people.
Gardening. The therapeutic advantages of gardening appear to be limitless.
Not only it appeals to seniors, but it also provides moderate exercise, stimulates the
mind, and allows people to connect with nature. Gardening is, in fact, the most popular
recreational activity among seniors 65 and over.
Golfing. Golf is a favorite senior hobby since it can be enjoyed far into one's
elderly years. It can help players maintain and develop their flexibility and hand-eye
coordination, as well as keep them happy and fulfilled. There are also golf-specific
senior retirement communities.

19
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Yoga is being practiced. Yoga has been demonstrated to relieve stress, lower
blood pressure, and enhance flexibility and balance, making it an ideal low-impact
practice for seniors. Yoga sessions are available in many senior living facilities and
leisure centers.
Cooking. Cooking can assist elders stay alert and increase mental acuity, in
addition to allowing them to remember about some great memories of sharing beloved
dishes with loved ones, aside from the mere joy of indulging in the fare.
Bowling. Bowling sessions might benefit seniors who want to improve their
mobility while socializing and having a good time. This sport can improve mood,
improve hand-eye coordination, and provide participants with a sense of
accomplishment—especially when they win!
Swimming. Swimming, as a muscle-tone-building kind of low-impact exercise,
is an excellent choice for seniors suffering from disorders that degrade cartilage and
bone tissue. An hour of this hydrotherapy per week can also improve spinal posture,
flexibility, and cardiovascular health.
It is critical for elders to spend time each day to relax and decompress. This
can include doing things alone or doing things with others for emotional comfort and
stimulation, but experts recommend that people of all ages do a little bit of both. Here
are a few soothing activities that are popular among the elderly.
Puzzles and brain games. Brain games, crossword puzzles, and sudoku are
excellent tools for elderly citizens to employ to keep their minds bright, while playing
games like bridge, scrabble, or cards promotes critical thinking skills and keeps the
brain fit. These activities are frequently enjoyed by seniors as a way to pass the time.
Spa Excursions. You don't have to live in a luxurious retirement community to
enjoy a spa day to unwind your mind and body. Hydrotherapy and self-pampering
revitalize the spirit and relieve tension.
Senior Matchmaking. Yes, senior dating can be a nice experience! After all,
camaraderie is an essential component of happiness and mental wellness. Many
single seniors find long-term partnerships even beyond the 'traditional' dating years
and even after the death of a spouse.
The Book Club. Reading is soothing and provides contemplation material for
the mind, but forming a book club allows seniors to discuss and engage with others.
Tossing ideas around and having good debates promotes mental acuity and even a
sense of accomplishment.
time spent on these activities
Caring for a Pet. Pets may be excellent elderly companions, and research
shows that they can provide significant health advantages to their owners, who often
have lower stress levels but higher amounts of pleasure-inducing serotonin. Pet
owners are also less prone to suffer from depression and to acquire cardiovascular
diseases such as high blood pressure.

B. Characteristics and Qualities of an Effective Leader

https://www.precheck.com/sites/default/files/More-Strategic-Healthcare-HR-Takeaways-DDI-Global-Leadership-Forecast.png

1. RISK TAKER - Is someone who is prepared to take risks in order to achieve a

goal.
2. SELF-CONTROL - The capacity to control, adjust emotions to avoid negative
behaviors, and encourage positive ones, to meet long-term objectives.
3. CARING INDIVIDUAL - Someone who sincerely cares about his colleagues and
wants to get to know them in order to help them achieve their full
potential.
4. MODESTY - The trait or state of being humble of one's skills. A modest leader
must be able to take criticism and own his or her own limits. On the
surface, a modest leader may appear quiet and reserved, but those who
get to know them discover that they are intense workers who are
obsessed with getting results. An ego should not be present in a modest
leader. Modesty enables a leader to make sound decisions while
keeping a cool head.
5. BALANCE - Being a balanced leader means that he or she consistently presents
himself or herself to the team. This strategy is comprised of two major
components.

25
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

The first step is to show that you care about your team on a personal
level. The second step is to learn how to confront them directly.
6. RESOLUTE – A Leader must be determined and persistent. They have the inner
strength to inspire others during difficult times. They are natural
skeptics, and they despise weakness and incompetence. He or she
may hear them use the word "should" frequently; they prefer to see
things done the "correct" way, or perhaps just their way.
7. MOTIVATIONAL - Leaders must be self-motivated. These leaders understand
the importance of continuing their personal and professional
development.
They are continually seeking new ideas from a range of sources,
including books, seminars and conferences, professional journals, as
well as networking and exchanging ideas with others.
8. CLEAR COMMUNICATOR - Leaders are outstanding communicators. The ability
to communicate is a fundamental trait of a leader. That is because his
or her ability to communicate successfully with others determines 85
percent of his or her performance as a leader. After all, being a leader
entails dealing with people, and his or her success is dependent on the
success of others. You can't be a leader if you can't communicate.
9. VISIONARY - Is a person who has a definite idea of how the future should appear.
They plan out specific procedures for realizing a goal and then lead a
group of people in that direction.
10.SENSE OF HUMOR - An important trait in a leader, especially in a small staff
organization. Furthermore, humor can help to defuse a difficult
atmosphere and bring flavor to an otherwise dull agenda. It also
develops a sense of camaraderie and makes for a more pleasant
meeting or workplace.
11. ETHICAL LEADERSHIP - is defined as promoting appropriate personal actions
and interpersonal relations in management, leadership, and in
workplace.
12. DEDICATED TO THE "CAUSE" - A leader is always committed to what they do
and exhibits the perseverance, determination, and commitment
required to achieve results. They recognize that there will be difficulties
and setbacks along the path, but instead of giving up, they figure out
ways to overcome them.

C. Types of Leadership
1. AUTOCRATIC/AUTHORITARIAN LEADERSHIP
 Individual dominance over all decisions and minimal group engagement
are hallmarks of autocratic leadership.
 Autocratic leaders rarely ask their members for constructive feedback
and instead make decisions on their own.

26
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

2. DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP
 The leader makes choices based on the input of the entire team.
 Regardless of whether or not he or she makes the ultimate choice, each
member has an equal say. Because democratic leadership allows
everyone to wield equal power, it is one of the most effective forms of
leadership.
3. LAISSEZ-FAIRE LEADERSHIP
 Leaders that adopt the French slogan "laissez faire," which literally
means "let them do," transfer virtually all authority to their team
members. Leaders that are more lenient with their subordinates have a
trusting and dependable attitude toward them. They don't micromanage
or become excessively involved, and they don't give too much guidance
or instruction.
4. PATERNALISTIC LEADERSHIP
 Is a leadership style in which a dominating authority person, such as a
Patriarch (Father) or Matriarch (Mother), treats and collaborates with the
members as if they were part of a family, in exchange of loyalty and trust,
as well as their compliance.
5. STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP
 Described as the leader's capacity to envision, prepare, coordinate, and
maximize the resources in order to successfully implement plans.
6. TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP
 Transformational Leaders are constantly "transforming" the group.
 A leadership style known as "transformational leadership" has an
influence on both people and societal systems.
 Its ideal form stimulates considerable and positive growth in followers
with the purpose of eventually developing them into leaders.
7. TRANSACTIONAL LEADERSHIP
 Regulation, discipline, and short-term planning distinguish transactional
leadership.
 To keep their staff motivated, leaders that use this technique rely on a
system of incentives and sanctions.
 Transactional leadership is based on the same basic principles as
traditional leadership: incentives and punishments inspire followers.
8. COACH-STYLE LEADERSHIP
 A high-performance atmosphere is fostered by a coaching leadership
style. Teamwork, responsibility, and fulfillment describe this type. To give
the most effective leadership skills, coaching leadership combines
coaching attitudes and practices.

D. Leadership Roles
I. Create an Inspiring Vision & Lead by Example
1. Establish an inspiring vision, common values, a sense of direction, and
goals. Lead change, take chances, and produce change; handle change
opposition.
2. Set a good example and share your risks and problems by leading by
example.

Difference between Leader and Manager

Between a leader and a manager, there are certain distinctions in terms of

traits, positions, and responsibilities. Let's have a look at the differences below.

A leader is someone who leads a group of people and motivates them to

perform effectively and reach a common objective. As they build a vision and a path
ahead to attain the goal, leaders use the transformative process. As a result, a leader
is continually concerned about his or her team. A leader has a strategic perspective,
manages a team, is open-minded, and encourages creativity. A leader cultivates
spheres of influence and leads by example.
A manager is someone who plans, directs, coordinates, and controls the
activities of an organization or a project. Managers employ the transactional process
while delegating responsibilities and meeting goals. As a result, a manager is in charge
of a group. A manager demonstrates organizational, management, problem-solving,
and conformance abilities. A manager establishes power circles and leads by example.

Lesson 2:
THE LEADER AS A COMMUNITY ROLE MODEL

In their communities, recreation leaders serve as positive role models.

Role modeling necessitates leadership from those in positions of formal
authority as well as individuals who have never considered themselves to be leaders.
Being a leader entails committing to and engaging in positive changes that
improve the quality of life in your community.

Effective community leaders:

1. Act as a change agent.
2. Show your dedication to ongoing growth.
3. Consider the big picture.
4. Are a driving force behind citizen responsibility
5. Advocate for better living conditions
6. Planning and strategies for community development should be used.

Effective Community Recreation Leaders

Recreation is more than just running a program or maintaining a facility. It
provides a platform for communities to work together creatively to enhance quality of
life and safeguard the environment. It has the potential to strengthen families,
encourage active lives, and make communities safer. If we want to maximize the
delivery of these goals as recreational leaders, we must pay particular attention to
how programs, activities, or events are carried out.
The challenges facing society are getting complicated, and no one person, no
matter how experienced leaders and team members, will ever have all of the answers.
Individuals in their communities who are ready and eager to contribute to make their
cities a better place to work, play, and live may be included instead.
The responsibility of the leader is about creating a procedure that assists
people in assisting themselves. When citizens detect and address community needs,
support multidisciplinary approaches, and create programs, events, services, and
facilities, they are regarded as recreation leaders.
The strength and promise of recreation's personal, social, environmental, and
economic advantages may be leveraged by community recreation leaders working
together.
Characteristics of a Community Recreation Leader
Leaders work with people or groups to develop and accomplish objectives that
are both attainable and meaningful. To put it another way, it's not about telling people
what to do or imposing one's own agenda.
Instead, this approach provides a framework for communities to help
themselves by determining their own priorities and goals.
A community leader should put the needs of the members of the community
ahead of their own, especially if the goals are for the greater good.
The effectiveness of community leaders' work will be evident when their
presence is no longer necessary. To put it another way, when people are given the
authority to attain their objectives and have acquired the essential abilities to work
independently.
Recreation leaders, on the other hand, are always necessary because
individuals and groups with new opportunities and challenges will always be visible.
Traditionally, recreational leaders have concentrated on the duties necessary
to achieve their organization's objectives. Nowadays, one of the most important
responsibilities is to assist individuals or groups in learning and growing.
Although members may rely on the leader, the objective is to help them become
self-sufficient while also increasing their responsibilities and decision-making ability.
A good leader does not create followers; instead, he or she cultivates
other leaders. This is known as empowerment.

33
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Planning, problem solving, fundraising, meeting facilitation, and other skills are
required to assist individuals in becoming more self-sufficient. Community leaders with
a lot of experience could say they wear a lot of hats.
It's important to know when to switch roles and which tools to utilize in order to thrive.
It can be tough for a leader to find a good balance between assisting people and groups
while preventing becoming overly dependent on the provision of resources and
programs. Community Recreation Leaders Play a Variety of Roles In general,
community recreation leaders serve communities at one or more of the levels listed
below.
1. Individual assistance,
2. assisting individuals in collaborating in groups,
3. Providing community support in general
4. Supporting community-based initiatives, as well as
5. Promoting comprehensive societal transformation (Herchmer, 2013).
Each of these levels is covered in further depth in regard to a recreation leader's unique
functions and responsibilities.

Supporting individuals:
 Motivate folks who wish to see specific concerns.
 Involve community members wherever feasible to provide comments and
direction, to serve as volunteers, and so on.
 Introduce them to others who share their worries, solution and difficulties.
 Facilitate opportunities for growth and training, in terms of leadership
 Introduce people to services and community groups that can give
information and referrals.

Supporting individuals to work together in groups:

• Promote community groups' programs and services.

34
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

• Assist with administrative tasks, meeting space and equipment, and financial
support, among other things.
• Establish a reputation as a reliable source of information for community
organizations.
• Maintain active and continuing communication with individuals and groups.
• Increase the accessibility of learning materials and opportunities.

Providing general community support:

• This has an influence on a variety of people.
• Recognize, encourage, and honor volunteerism.
• Initiate dialogues to learn about a community's strengths and weaknesses.
• Disseminate information.
• Promote and/or give chances for networking.
• Create and advocate policies that express a commitment to community
development.
• Provide volunteers and staff with continual training and learning opportunities.
• Participate in community-planning initiatives.

Supporting community initiative:

• Provide opportunity for community resources, issues, and difficulties to be
evaluated by initiating and/or supporting initiatives.
• Initiate and/or support opportunities for collaborative issue solving and new
initiatives.
• Encourage possibilities for connection development and collaborative projects.
• Collaborate with others to provide services.
• Encourage the development of fresh ideas and innovations.
• Encourage and encourage activities among those who may not be receiving
adequate community service.

Encouraging widespread community change:

• This is known as collective impact or comprehensive community change, and
it will always have an influence on organizations from a variety of sectors,
including NGOs, government, and industry.
• Assist in bringing together and empowering interested people and employees
for community-based activities.
• Make connections and form networks with people and organizations from other
sectors.
• Encourage and encourage cross-organizational collaboration.
• Show that you're ready and flexible enough to deal with rules, financing models,
distribution methods, and other variables that limit growth and development.
• Encourage "big picture thinking" and encourage community service integration.
• Provide training and assistance to a diverse range of leaders.

35
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Self-care

Recreation leaders must avoid burnout by caring for themselves as well as their
communities if they want to be effective in their communities. Dedicated leaders
frequently prioritize the needs of their communities over their own. This type of work
requires a lot of energy and can be quite demanding, placing leaders at danger of
burnout. It is simple to advocate for self-care, but it is more difficult to put into practice.
According to experts, it entails expressing your emotions rather than keeping them
bottled up inside; using "I" words to discuss pleasant things as well as anger and
disappointment with someone you trust; and having a social network of friends and
family that listen, support, and are there for you. This can be difficult for recreation
leaders who are new to small towns.
We all face stress on a daily basis (e.g. getting the kids off to school on time,
answering emails on an ongoing basis, meeting deadlines for grant applications,
preparing final reports, planning events, hiring new staff, recruiting volunteers, etc.).
Another type of stress accumulates over time without being seen, leading to
burnout. Stress has caught up with you if you have a pounding head, clinched jaw,
tense shoulders, and/or a racing heart. Regular physical exercise, nutritious food,
paying attention to our spiritual life, taking the time to calm down and relax, and
spending time outdoors in nature are all self-care ways to combat this. Check in with
yourself on a weekly basis to see if your schedule is doable. Is it possible to assign a
few chores to someone else? Is it possible to postpone a project?
In small towns, recreation leaders are put under a lot of pressure, and they
usually do their hardest to meet everyone's requirements except their own. Over time,
developing a realistic work schedule and establishing limits might assist to prevent
weariness. When you have to deny someone's suggestion or request, there are
several excellent responses to use, such as "I truly appreciate your concept." We don't
have the resources to look into it right now, but I'd want to write it down and bring it up
in the meeting." "Thank you for your suggestions," for example. Would you be able to
put out a schedule for this, including the resources needed, the number of volunteers
needed, and the costs? We don't have enough employees to handle this on our own,
but if you're prepared to take the lead, we might be able to help."
Recreation leaders must realize that they are in the recreation business. It is
critical for leaders to have fun, relax, and laugh. We need to show that involvement
and balance may have a good impact on individuals and the quality of life in our
communities as role models for recreation and leisure.

Mixers and Ice Breakers

Ice breakers/mixers help establish a group dynamic and promote socialization

Across the Great Divide

Type: Teamwork, cooperation, ice breaker
Group Size: 6+
Equipment: None
Instructions:
1. Arrange the group side by side, all facing the same direction.
2. Instruct the players to arrange their feet so that the outside of each foot meets the
outside of the foot of the person standing to either side.
3. Explain the following scenario to the group:
4. "When the first settlers arrived, they had to establish that they could work together
and that they were worthy of land." The group had to walk from one location to
another without breaking touch in order to receive the deed to the land."
5. The group then attempts to move the required distance while maintaining their feet
in contact; the group must then return to the start and begin again.
Hints:
• If the group is advanced enough, blindfold some of the participants during the
activity.
• Vary the distance that the group must go based on its skill and prior experience with
cooperative games.
Critique:
• This game might be difficult for younger children to complete.

40
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

• Avoid using it for large group activities because if you turn it into a relay game, you'll
need someone to keep an eye on each line to make sure they don't come apart.

Relay Games
Relay races are games where equal teams race to achieve a task. Relay race
games provide team competition for many different occasions – day camps, school
recesses, and outdoor parties as well as many other group get-togethers.

Caterpillar Race

Group Size: 4-8 people, or many groups of 4-
8 people
Equipment: None
Instructions:
1. Divide into two groups of 4-8 persons
each.

in a straight line, one behind the other.
3. Place each player's legs around the waist of the person in front of them, with
their feet in the person's lap.
4. Only the first player should have their feet on the ground.
5. The goal of the game is for the players to scoot to the finish line using just their
hands.
6. When the entire caterpillar reaches the finish line, the winning team is declared.
Hints:
• Make it a rule that if a player other than the leader puts their feet on the ground,
the team must restart.
Critique:
• Because younger children are more agile, this game is perhaps better suited for
them. It worked for this age group, but you must be cautious.

Tag Games
Tag is a playground game involving two or more players chasing other players in an
attempt to "tag" and mark them out of play, usually by touching with a hand. There are
many variations; most forms have no teams, scores, or equipment. Usually, when a
person is tagged, the tagger says, "Tag, you're 'it'!"

Cranes and Crows

Type: Tag
Group Size: 16 +, great with large numbers
Equipment: Boundary lines
Instructions:
1. Form two teams: one for Cranes and one for
Crows.
2. Teams form a line along the center of the
playing area.
3. The leader cries out "Cranes" or "Crows." If
the "Cranes" are summoned, they must tag

41
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

the "Crows" before running to their free area, or vice versa.

4. If a person is tagged, he or she joins the opposing team.
5. When one team has all of the players, the game is ended.

Critique:
• This game is appropriate for younger children. The age limit is most likely in
high school or college.

Quiet Games
Killer Wink

Group Size: 10-20 people
Equipment: Deck of Cards
Instructions:
1. Give each person one card. Make a circle
with them.
2. The person holding the joker is the
murderer.
3. Everyone glances around, trying to figure
out who the murderer is.
4. The assassin winks at individuals in order to
kill them.
5. If the killer winks at you, wait a few moments before telling everyone you're dead.
6. Then, if you believe you know who the murderer is, say so, and another player
must back you up.
7. The individual you are convicting then tells you whether or not they are the
murderer.
8. If they are the murderer, the game is over; if they are not, the game continues
until the murderer is caught or everyone is killed.
Hints:
• Once you've mastered one killer, move on to the next. The two assassins are
unable to kill each other.
Critique:
• This was a good game for middle school and teens; it would not be appropriate
for younger children. They find it difficult to wink. It is also useful in tiny
settings and for calming children.

Mental Games
Keeping the brain active can be accomplished through a variety of means,
including memory games for strengthening memory, engaging puzzles, and
conventional card games.
All games and puzzles necessitate concentration and focus; a gamer will
become accustomed to working in a consistent setting and devoting time to a particular
activity. As the difficulty of the activity increases, so will their attention span.
Jigsaw puzzles, in particular, need a great deal of effort in order to solve them;
while doing so, kids will discover patterns and derive solutions.
Word searches and other word games, such as Scrabble, aid in the
development of vocabulary and spelling. As new words are presented, this aids in the
development of comprehension of word groups and linkages.

42
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Chess and card games help students develop strategic and problem-solving
abilities by requiring them to assess their alternatives and examine their opponent's
hand. Such games force players to think rationally and methodically; they must pay
close attention throughout the game, either to the cards that have previously been laid
or to predict their opponent's future movements. Having to remember complicated
rules will also help improve memory skills.
Sudoku is a short-term memory-
based number placement game. To solve a
Sudoku problem, you must look forward
and follow the repercussions of your
actions—if you place a 6 in this box, that
one must be an 8 and this one a 4, and so
on. This form of planning aids in the
improvement of short-term memory and
focus.
Lumosity is a brain-training
application that utilizes games and
exercises to help you improve your
memory, attention, and processing
abilities. Lumosity, which is based on
substantial scientific and neurological
research, assists individuals in making the
most use of their brains.
Crossword puzzles are a traditional brain trainer
that accesses memories from multiple aspects of
information as well as spoken language. Crossword
puzzles can be completed in a variety of methods, both
online and offline. A crossword puzzle is almost always
included in a daily newspaper. Alternatively, purchase a
book of crossword puzzles tailored to your skill level and
interests.
Peak is another app-only alternative
(available for iOS and Android) that offers brain
games to help you improve your attention, memory,
problem-solving skills, mental agility, and other
cognitive processes. If you're a competitive type,
knowing how you compare against other users may
encourage you. The software is free to use, but a
low-cost subscription unlocks additional capabilities.

Chess is sometimes regarded as a brain

game for intellectually talented individuals since it
exercises the brain. This brain game, popularized by
World Chess Grandmaster Bobby Fischer in the
1950s and 1960s, is now played by individuals of all
ages all over the world.

43
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Solitaire is also an excellent game for relaxing

the mind since it induces a mild meditative
state. Keeping calm by concentrating on a low-risk
game such as Solitaire is a fantastic technique to
relieve tension in your mind or body and help you enjoy
your day or sleep better at night.
Scrabble is a board and tile game played by
two to four players in which they fight to build words
using lettered tiles on a 225-square board; words
written out by letters on the tiles interlock like words in
a crossword puzzle.
Jigsaw puzzles work both the left and right
parts of your brain at the same time. Working on a
puzzle strengthens connections between brain cells,
increases mental speed, and is especially useful for
improving short-term memory. Jigsaw puzzles help
you enhance your visual-spatial thinking skills.

TABLE AND EQUIPMENT GAMES

There are two ways to play table game. As opposed to card games and,
occasionally, board games, it is any "game played on a table or similar surface,
typically with counters, balls, or other playing pieces."
Table games are popular at casinos and include some type of legal gambling,
but they are also played privately according to varied house rules. The word is
significant since some governments allow casinos to just have slots and no table
games. This rule has led in casinos in certain jurisdictions using electronic table games
such as roulette, blackjack, and craps.
Social Bonding: Builds communication and social skills. Players share similar
interest and spent a quality time together.
Brain Health: Improves your motor and strategy functions and promotes long
– term memory.
Physical Development: Makes our body in a good shape and healthy, and
enhances our hand and eye coordination.
Fun: Develops enjoyment and brings out the positive attitude.

44
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Foosball. Foosball requires 2-4

players, a foosball table, and a ball to play.
Each player controls 2-4 rods, for a total of 13
players each team. Players stand on opposite
sides, twisting their rods to get their players to
"kick" the ball into the goal of their opponent. A
single participant can switch back and forth
between his or her four rods in a one-on-one
game. In a two-on-two game, partners each
take two rods and take turns playing defense
or offensive.
Billiard. There are other variants of
pool (8 ball, 9 ball, etc.), but 8 ball is the most
frequent, so we'll stay with that for this tutorial.
The game begins with a "break," after which
players attempt to hit all of their allotted balls
into pockets with the cue ball (the white ball).
Before the 8 ball can be struck into a pocket,
all of the balls must be hit into pockets. The
first person to complete this task wins!
Ping-Pong. Table tennis, also known
as ping-pong and whiff-whaff, is a sport in
which two or four players use small solid
rackets to smash a lightweight ball, also known
as the ping-pong ball, back and forth across a
table. The game is played on a hard table
separated by a net.
Shuffleboard. Shuffleboard, also
known as floor shuffleboard and deck
shuffleboard, is a game in which players use
cues to send weighted discs sliding down a
small court, with the goal of having them come
to rest within a specified scoring area. It refers
to the whole family of shuffleboard-variant
games as a more general phrase.
Dice Game - Games that employ or
contain one or more dice as its only or core
component, generally as a random method,
are referred to as dice games.
Card Game - Card games, whether
conventional or game-specific, are any
games that use playing cards as the principal
mechanism with which the game is played.
There are several card games, as
well as families of similar games (such as
poker).

A few card games played with conventional decks have fully established rules
and international competitions, but the majority are folk games with rules that vary by
location, culture, and player.
A card game is played with a deck or pack of identically sized and shaped
playing cards. Each card has two sides, one on the front and one on the back.

EFFECTIVE GAME LEADERSHIP

Leadership is not a subject that can be studied in school. Leaders do not
operate in the abstract, but rather in the present. They are thrust into circumstances in
which they must act. Their success is built on unifying a group to achieve a single
objective, not on creative interpretations of renowned phrases or approaches.

That doesn't imply that reading is a waste of time. Read about what makes a
great leader, but balance that intellectual exercise with something you can truly get
your teeth into. We're discussing leadership games. Games, indeed.

Games are entertaining, but they are also about covert learning. When you're
engaged, you learn better, and what's more engaging than having a good time?
Quiet Games Leader

Quiet game leaders have significant power. They are able to build excitement,
foster ownership, and develop loyalty in novel ways because they focus on action
rather than words. However, being a successful silent leader is not simple.
Active Games Leader
The active games leader aims to include personnel in the group's difficulties
and provides them a part in resolving those challenges. An engaged leader establishes
goals, mentors their people, and empowers them to confront problems while allowing
individuals to "own" the bottom line.

The following leadership games can help you become a better leader while
also improving the leadership abilities of your team members.

Hula Hoop Pass

Time needed: 10 minutes
Group Size: 5-25 people
Materials: 2 hula hoops and a watch
Description & Directions: Form a circle with the
group, holding hands. Explain that the purpose of
this activity is to pass a hula-hoop entirely around
the circle in the shortest amount of time possible
without breaking handholds. While you're
discussing this, drape a hula-hoop over the hands of two members of the group.
Pass the hula hoop around the circle once so that everyone may participate
and timing it. Encourage the group to establish a target and see if they can complete
it in less time. While offering encouragement, assist the group in going through goal

46
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

setting and thinking about how to move quicker. Begin the group's second effort. If the
group does not accomplish their objective and want to try again or redefine their aim,
you may make additional tries.
As a last challenge, inform the group that you will be adding another hula-hoop
to make things more exciting. Add a second hula-hoop to the opposite side of the circle,
moving it in the opposite direction.

Minefield
Time Needed: 20-30 minutes
Group Size: Any
Materials: Masking tape, blindfolds, random
assortment of supplies (this is for the mine field of
obstacles – can be small toys, paper, pencils,
plastic eggs, etc.)
Directions: Make a start and finish line using
masking tape, approximately 12 feet apart,
before the of the activity. Distribute the elements
at random across the room, between the start
and end lines. *Note: While any material may be used for this, make sure it is tiny
enough to step over to create a safe environment.
Divide your group into pairs. Individuals should be paired with someone they
don't know well if at all feasible.
Partners will collaborate to navigate the minefield of obstacles on the floor. One
partner must be blindfolded or keep his or her eyes closed and is not permitted to
speak. The other partner is permitted to view and speak with the other person, but is
not permitted to touch the other person. Distribute blindfolds to each pair once they
have decided which role they wish to perform.
Explain that the objective is for each blinded individual to cross the area from
one side to the other. He/she must attentively listen to their partner's vocal advice in
order to avoid touching the strewn goods. If someone touches an item, they must
restart.
Allow each duo a few minutes to strategize. Then, have blindfolded partner
pairs enter the area with the strewn materials (either one at a time or numerous times
depending on the group you're working with). Remember that the blinded individual
cannot speak; all he or she can do is listen and move. The guider is unable to touch
his or her partner but is able to communicate with him or her. Swap roles and repeat
the process after a couple has successfully reached the opposite side.

Stand Up
You need only two persons to sit on the floor. They are facing one other, their
feet touching and holding hands. The objective of the game is for both participants to
stand up simultaneously. It's an excellent way to practice problem - solving skills and
collaboration while also building teamwork and trust.

47
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Improv Night
Improvisation is an excellent strategy for getting a team to bond, which is one
of a leader's responsibilities. Improvisation helps to improve communication, self-
awareness, confidence, and creativity. It also enhances your ability to pay attention
and listen.
Set up a performance troupe and an audience. In the standard improv setup,
let the audience to yell out a place, a career, and a problem (like coffeehouse, cop and
buying a donut). Whatever you choose, it will be entertaining, enlightening, and sure
to get your creative juices flowing.

Shape Shifting
You'll need a rope that has been knotted into a loop at both ends. It should be
large enough that everyone can grasp it with both hands while standing in a circle.
Now instruct the group to form a shape, such as a circle, square, triangle, or other. The
group then attempts to lay the rope in that shape on the floor.
Repeat this and increase the difficulty by asking them to construct increasingly
difficult forms, such as a horse, chicken, and so on. The only catch is that they must
now converse nonverbally, using just hand signals. Remove even the hand motions
used for communicating as you go. When you're through, talk about your experience
and why communication is so important.

Leadership Crest
Although some people may not have a family crest, everyone understands what
they are: a visual depiction of the clan's abilities. It's something that helps to explain
the family. Apply the same concept to leadership, and have everyone create a crest
that reflects a strong leader's principles, beliefs, and ideals.
Allow them to divide the crest or coat of arms into four categories: leadership
qualities, values that impact others, recent successes, and what you like most about
your present job. Which portion was the most straightforward? Is there anything there
that reveals something about you that others may not know? Are the values of the firm
represented on the crest?
This game focuses on alignment, an often-overlooked leadership attribute. It is
critical that your values connect with your successes and the ideals of your company.
You’re a Poet, and You Didn’t Know It
Writing a poem is an excellent approach to exercise one's creativity and
investigate leadership topics. You can compose the poetry individually or divide into
small groups, each with the aim of thinking about leadership in nonlinear ways in order
to explore fresh viewpoints.
To provide some guidance, ask that the poetry link to the five senses, contain
action words, and tackle abstractions. However, while selecting words, ensure that
they are precise, significant to you, and, of course, poetic (musical and pleasing).
Following that, hold a group discussion to discover what surprise thoughts were
uncovered.

Leaders You Love

There are many outstanding leaders in every area and age, and there are many
different leadership styles ranging from transformative to transactional. We can learn
from the past. Often, we focus on certain leadership traits that connect with us, but this
myopic perspective might cast other key characteristics in the shadows.
So, gather a few small groups and ask them to discuss leaders they know or
admire and why. Then, bring everyone together and discuss leadership using the

48
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

examples they gathered in the smaller groups. The findings will not only be illuminating,
but they will also help the group bond.

Lesson 2: INTRODUCTION TO SPECIAL EVENTS

WHAT IS A SPECIAL EVENT?

A special event, according to
Johnny Allen, William O'Toole, Ian
McDonnell, and Robert L. Harris' book
Festival and Special Event
Management, is a meeting of individuals
that can last from a few hours to several
days and is aimed to celebrate, honor,
market, educate about, or observe
human accomplishments.
Dr. Joe Jeff Goldblatt, a pioneer
in special events, has a similar, perhaps
more general, definition: 'a special event
is a unique moment in time celebrated with ceremony and ritual to satisfy specific
needs (Goldblatt, 2002; p. 6).' Getz (1997; p. 4) offers two definitions, one from the
event organizer's perspective and one from the guest's perspective:
 'A special event is a one-time or occasionally occurring event that occurs
outside of the sponsoring or organizing body's typical programs or activities.'
 'A special event is a chance for a recreational, social, or cultural experience
that isn't available in the typical range of options or that isn't part of everyday
life for the client or visitor.'

REASONS FOR SPECIAL EVENTS

Special events, according to Goldblatt (2002; pp. 8–9), serve four purposes:
celebration, education, marketing, and reunion. While these goals certainly cover a lot
of what we do at events today and are a good place to start, on closer examination,
most events, particularly historical ones, appear to have deeper motivations, which in
some cases were quite plainly non-celebratory in character.
Religious
Baptism and confirmation in Christianity, bar and bat mitzvahs in Judaism,
marriages in all religions, and funerals or memorial ceremonies in all civilizations are
all grounds for religious celebrations, notably the recognition of life events. For
nonbelievers, some festivals, such as Christmas or Easter, are related more to
commercial than religious causes, despite the fact that they are immensely important
for believers. Some historical religious rituals have also been motivated by a desire to
preserve the inter-relationship between the monarch and priest classes (e.g., ancient
Egypt) or to affirm ancient rulers' ability to communicate with the gods (e.g. Mayans).
Today, huge multinational faiths like Catholicism, which maintain strong linkages with
a central ruling church authority through controlled, uniform liturgy, continue to do so.

49
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Political
Despite the fact that politics does not play as big a role on special occasions, it
is nevertheless prevalent all over the world. Inaugurations and coronations of
presidents are, without a doubt, very exceptional occasions that need a great deal of
preparation and organization. Fundraising dinners and gatherings for political parties
are, of course, political in character. Other incidents that have a more subtle, but
primary, political motive are less visible.

Social
For at least as long as religion and ritual, reaffirming one's position and
participation in social organizations has been a purpose for special occasions.
Performance, according to Turner (1988), represents the social drama. This was
especially true in ancient Roman theaters, where the seating arrangement and the way
the audience behaved was a reflection of Roman society as a whole. 'The theater
therefore offered a definite place and time for all the dramas of Roman society to be
played out, with a whole cast of characters, to a complete and representative
audience,' Parker (1999, p. 163) notes.' Of course, the theater was not always the site,
and now social gatherings continue to include celebrations of common cultural and
communal connections, including not just some of the major milestone events already
described, but also reunions, graduations, and public, non-profit cultural festivals.'
From modest neighborhood picnics on a national holiday to mega-events like Rio de
Janeiro's yearly Carnival, there are plenty of examples.

Educational
The role of education as a catalyst for change has taken on a new meaning.
Improved transportation and communication technologies in the twentieth century
made it simpler to transfer people and goods between continents and between
countries. As a result, the number of conferences and trade shows whose main
purpose was the exchange or presentation of knowledge, or in other words, an
educational purpose, but in a different form, grew. A flourishing meetings sector has
emerged as a consequence of scientific, medical, and industry-specific conferences
and trade events.

Commercial
The major motive for conducting special events has almost fully turned
commercial as a result of technical advancements in the twentieth century, such as air
travel and the Internet, as well as other influences such as the cult of celebrity worship,
movies, and mass-appeal entertainment.
Understanding the underlying motivations for special events, particularly
commercial ones, is important because it may have an impact on how an event is
planned and executed, particularly when it comes to entertainment, décor, and visual
displays. A producer entrusted with creating entertainment for a fundraising event for
a company leader, for example, would suggest that the leader be included in a written
oral presentation to give him or her greater exposure and to show him or her in a
positive way.

50
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

CATEGORIES OF SPECIAL EVENTS

Various types of special events, as well as associated expertise of organizers,

have become increasingly popular in recent years.

Meeting and Conferences

Meetings, conferences, conventions, video conferences, Internet conferences,
congresses, seminars, symposia, workshops, and retreats are all examples of events
that fall under this category.

Expositions and Trade Shows

Large expositions, industrial exhibits, trade shows, professional/scientific
shows, and consumer fairs are all included in this category.

Celebrations, Ceremonies, and Spectacles

■ Parades, festivals, carnivals, athletic events, concerts, and one-off theater
performances are examples of public events.
■ Award shows, business dinners, theme events, opening and closing ceremonies,
incentive events, fundraisers, social and life events, product launches, and reunions
are all examples of private events, which are arguably the most common sub-
category in which event producers operate.

Private events, athletic events, public events, and fairs and festivals are all part
of the industry's special events segment. They are classified as'special' since they are
not part of the host's regular business, program, or activity.
Special events are typically centered on hospitality or entertainment and are
thus of a social rather than a corporate nature. That's not to say they don't have
commercial goals; while some are merely joyous, many are conducted for marketing,
advertising, promotion, and sales.
Each of these main categories under special events is made up of a variety of
events. Let's take a look at each one separately.
PRIVATE EVENTS
PARTIES AND CELEBRATIONS
Most people associate private events with parties and festivities such as
receptions, banquets, birthdays, bar/bat mitzvahs, marriages, and anniversaries.
However, technically, a private event is one that is meant at a select audience
of invited guests and is not available to the general public. As a result, there are various
sub-categories under the private events category of special events.
BRAND COMMUNICATIONS EVENTS
Retail events, launches, fashion shows, award ceremonies, openings, and
premieres are examples of private brand marketing events. These are usually reserved
for invited guests alone. So, while brand events are their own sector of the event
business, they fall under the umbrella of special events, with some falling under the
private events category and some falling under public events or fairs & festivals, as
we'll see below.

51
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

CHARITY / NON-PROFIT EVENTS

Similarly, charity events and fundraisers are a big part of the events business,
although they are also classified as special events. Some, such as gala dinners, are
private events aimed at a specific group of major donors, whereas others, such as bike
rides and marathons, are public or sporting events.
As a result, the term "private events" can refer to a wide range of events, from
parties and celebrations to brand marketing, promotional, and launch events, as well
as fundraisers and charity galas—all of which are classified as private special events.
PUBLIC EVENTS

Public events are often hosted in public locations that are open to the general
public and are free to attend or observe. They often need the approval or participation
of public leaders such as the Mayor or local council.
COMMUNITY / NATIONAL EVENTS
These events can range from small-
scale local community gatherings, such as a
street party, to large-scale national
gatherings. They are sometimes even
international events, as in the case of the
Olympics.
LOCAL COUNCIL / GOVERNMENT
Photo: Royal wedding public viewing celebrations by Jack
EVENTS Morton Worldwide

Royal weddings, Presidential inaugurations, New Year's Eve festivities, official

commemorative events, street parties, and town festivals are examples of public
events arranged by local councils or governments for celebratory or entertainment
reasons.
PARADES / FESTIVALS / DEMONSTRATIONS
Others, such as parades, public performances, non-commercial festivals,
rallies, and demonstrations ranging from Gay Pride to World Zombie Day and Chinese
New Year Festivals, may be organized by community groups or political, religious, and
non-profit organizations to celebrate, educate, or demonstrate.
MASS PARTICIPATION EVENTS
Some mass-participation charity /
fundraising activities, such as a fun run or bike
ride, are also public events since they take
place on city streets, include road closures,
and are witnessed by the general public.

52
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

EXPERIENTIAL EVENTS
Public events can also be organized by commercial companies and brands.
The most common type of commercially-operated public event is a fair or festival—
which we’ll look at in the next section.
Commercial firms and brands may arrange public events. A fair or festival is
the most prevalent sort of commercially run public event, and we'll look at them in the
next section.
For example, Jack Morton Worldwide staged an interactive exhibit of the
biggest Lego model ever created in Times Square as part of a Star Wars themed event
for Lego. Despite the fact that the event was hosted in a public place and that members
of the public may attend for free, and that it featured free entertainment, its primary
goal was to serve as a brand marketing and promotional opportunity for Lego.
FAIRS & FESTIVALS

CONVENTIONS / EXHIBITIONS
While some events and festivals are also
public events, not all fairs and festivals are
public events.
A special event is defined as a
convention, expo, fair, or festival that is oriented
towards consumers rather than trade, such as
Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model Live in the UK
or the several international Star Trek
Photo: Star Trek Las Vegas Convention by Creation
conventions. Entertainment

While you might argue that they are still a form of public event because
anybody may attend, as long as you pay the admission price, many of these events
are conducted in private venues—convention centers or exposition halls—rather than
public locations. As a result, they fall into their own category of special events known
as fairs and festivals because they are neither free nor located in a public location.
COMMERCIAL FESTIVALS
Commercially run festivals are also
included in this category. These events may
take place in a public area, but they are
organized as for-profit events, frequently by a
private corporation that has just rented the site
from the council. Some of these events will be
free to attend and so deemed public events,
but the organizers' primary goal is to earn a
profit by selling merchandise, food & drinks, or
Photo: Winter Wonderland Festival, London, via PWR
entertainment. Events

For example, the Winter Wonderland celebration in London's Hyde Park is

classified as a public festival since it is free to attend and takes place in a public
environment. It does, however, have commercial goals and generates revenue for a
private firm by charging for fairground rides and games, food stalls, beer tents,

53
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

champagne bars, ice skating, and leasing stalls in its Christmas Market to arts and
craft vendors.
COMMERCIAL FESTIVALS ON PUBLIC LAND
Although held on public land and accessible to members of the public (in the
sense that anyone can buy a ticket), some commercial festivals, such as Nevada's
Burning Man or the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen, are ticketed, for-profit, commercial
events and, as such, are classified separately from free-to-attend public events.
Other commercial festivals, such as the UK’s Glastonbury and the USA’s
Coachella music festivals, are hosted on privately-owned property and therefore are
readily distinguishable from public events.
SPORTING EVENTS
NATIONAL EVENTS
Many nationally and internationally
renowned events are included in the sporting
events category of special events. These
include the NFL Super Bowl, the Kentucky
Derby, and the US Open in the United States,
and the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix,
Wimbledon Tennis Championships, and Le
Tour de France in Europe.
Photo: Red Bull X Fighters via Relaxic

Aside from the primary athletic event, these established events frequently
feature a slew of subsidiary events as part of the official schedule, such as charity
previews, opening ceremonies, closing galas, award ceremonies, sponsor parties, and
other hospitality events.
LOCAL EVENTS
Locally, there are several forms of athletic events, including boat races,
rodeos, bike rides, marathons, and equestrian competitions, all of which fall under
the category of special events.

Lesson 1:
ORGANIZING GAMES and SPECIAL EVENTS
Event planning is a major responsibility of all sport and recreation
organizations. Special events help organizations grow by focusing people's attention
on medium and long-term goals. While they add to the workload, they frequently leave
a positive impact for the company.

The legacy that special events leave includes:

 Setting the standard on performance
 Improving the organization's image in the community
 To provide donors with promotional opportunities
 Strengthening the infrastructure
 Volunteers are being educated.

COMMITTEE
A committee or commission is a group of one or more people who serve under
the authority of an assembly.
Committees can be used to formally bring together people with relevant knowledge
from various sections of an organization who would otherwise have no method of sharing
information or coordinating activities. They may have the benefit of broadening
perspectives and distributing duties. They can also be tasked with recommending actions
in cases where specialist expertise or technical judgment is required.

EVENT COMMITTEE STRUCTURE

Event Committee

Program Committee
An event's program is its beating heart. The event goals will be realized, and
the concept will be communicated, thanks to the program material. A program might
be focused on a single performance or include a variety of acts and media
presentations.

The program committee will make suggestions, and the event committee will
decide what will be included in the program.
The program committee's task is to figure out what's required and get it.

58
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

When determining the program, these items should be taken into consideration:
• The audience (those who will be taking part).
• Maintain the audience's interest by making the presentation relevant and
intriguing.
• The location of the event typically affects the program's options.
• Theme/goals of the event—the program content must be compatible with the
event's overall theme and aims.
• Money available – what resources are available to fund/create the program?
• Time available—how long is the event's actual program component?
• Time available to the committees to secure/create the program
• Media development technical assistance

The Chair of the Program sub-committee is responsible for:

• Forming a committee forming a committee forming a committee forming a
committee forming
• Timetables for meetings, rehearsals, and agendas
• Assisting in the creation of a program plan
• Providing the event committee with the program plan
• Identifying the human and financial resources that are required
• Creating a timetable for planning
• Assigning tasks to members of the committee
• Juggling performer contracts and program budgets
• During the facility meeting, communicate all technical requirements to the
facility.
• Rehearsals and stage management coordination
• Greetings to all performers
• During the program, troubleshooting
• Organizing a post-event assessment
• Express gratitude to all of the participants.

The Program Committee is responsible for:

• Developing a program strategy
• Getting in touch with/contracting with performers
• Creating and obtaining all necessary media
• Putting together a performance schedule/script
• Collaborate with the event committee to create a guest program.
• All technological requirements must be identified and communicated.
• Become stage managers, MCs, or stage workers.
• Organize a Green Room

Funding Committee
It's essential to figure out what is needed to assist to reach the event's goals
and theme. The vast majority of organizations have an event budget. This sum may
be sufficient for the event, or discover the additional finances.
Here are some things to consider:
• Existing cash in hand should only be used as a starting point.
• Use other sources to raise fund and be ready to put in the effort to find them.
• Charge an entry fee to cover your event's additional costs.

The Chair of the Funding sub-committee is responsible for:

 Advising the Event Committee and its subcommittees on available money and
procedures
 Developing a Funding Strategy/Budget
 Signing off on all finance plans with the Event Chair prior to any spending.

59
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

 Creating a timeline for all committees' purchases and paperwork submission

 Creating Purchase Requests
 Keeping track of all costs
 Examining the Funding Strategy
 Express gratitude to all of the participants.

The Event Chair, Sub-Committee Chairs, and the Organization Treasurer make
up the Funding sub-committee. They are in charge of:
 Developing and approving a comprehensive financial plan that incorporates all
of the subcommittees' anticipated costs
 Deciding how to raise/seek extra funding if necessary
 Determining ticket prices and procedures
 Ticket information should be sent to the Marketing Subcommittee
 Keeping track of expenditures in each subcommittee and reporting any
overruns or shortfalls

Decoration Committee
Responsibilities:
 The atmosphere of the event is created by the decorations.
 The environment may express culture, emotion, or attitude, and it plays an
important role in achieving objectives and communicating the topic.
 Table centerpieces, service line setup, back drops, and stage decorations help
to create a more inviting atmosphere.

When determining the Decoration plan, these items should be taken into
consideration:
 Set-up of the Stage
 Setup of the Food Area
 Colors
 Costumes
 Lighting
 Capabilities and limits of the room

The Chair of the Decorations sub-committee is responsible for:

 Putting together a committee
 Organizing meeting schedules and agendas
 assisting in the creation of a decorating scheme
 Notifying the Event Committee of the Decorating Plan
 Identifying the human and financial resources that are required
 Creating a timeline for planning and decorating
 Assigning responsibilities to members of the committee
 Getting in Touch with the Facility
 Set aside time for preparation and decoration.
 Advising the Volunteer Committee Chair of the need for volunteers

60
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

 Purchasing merchandise
 Making, constructing, and designing decorations
 Cleaning up after the event
 Keeping reused decorations safe

Volunteer Committee
Volunteers are essential to an event's success. Volunteers assist the
committee's personnel by supporting the work of the food, program, decoration, and
marketing subcommittees.

Some things to consider:

• Volunteers are the future members and leaders of the organization.

provide sustenance. Consider the following factors while deciding how to proceed with
a culinary event:
 The varieties of meals that are wanted, as well as the competence of a caterer
to provide real food
 The ability of the group to organize, prepare, and serve the meal
 The organization's and program's theme and goal
 Committee members' skill levels
 monetary resources available

RISK MANAGEMENT

Conducting An Event Risk Audit

Conducting a risk audit is an important part of creating an event management
strategy. A risk audit entails identifying and evaluating all risks so that a strategy can
be put in place to cope with any unfavorable event that causes injury to individuals or
harm to the company.
A risk audit involves:
• Examining the planned venue for potential dangers,
• Looking at previous comparable events to understand how attendees are likely
to engage with the setting
• Ensuring that event management systems, policies, and procedures are up to
date by evaluating them.
• Conducting interviews with event staff to determine whether they have received
adequate training.

Checking The Venue

In general, two scenarios need to examine. The first scenario is that you are
familiar with the location since you have already visited it. In this situation, risk
management is still required, but the time spent reviewing the site will be focused on
ensuring the venue is appropriately equipped in accordance with the risk management
strategies you currently have in place. It will also be crucial to determine whether the
venue has changed since you last visited it.
In the second case, you may be unfamiliar with the event and have never used
it previously. In this situation, a tour of the venue will be required to identify any dangers
and risks. A prepared checklist is quite beneficial. For instance, your checklist may
remind you to keep an eye out for:
 In the event of an emergency, an ambulance assesses the situation.
 Securing doors/gates to prevent equipment loss, restrict spectator access, or
prevent youngsters from leaving the venue.
 (For further information, see the spectator safety checklist)
 Areas that must be walled off if hazardous items are present
 Rooms or areas that can be utilized for first aid

63
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Observing Other Events

Surprising things happen at sporting events by their very nature, especially in
the midst of battle. While there is no infallible approach for spotting hazards, seeing
comparable incidents may be highly helpful. Your observations, in particular, may
reveal information on spectators and athletes' behavior. The administration of sporting
events requires crowd control.
Spectators and players may become boisterous, if not violent, and event
organizers must be ready to respond quickly.

Event Management Procedures

Event managers must ensure that event management processes cover a wide
range of crises, such as significant player or spectator injury or sickness, fire, bomb
threat, crowd disruptions, and climatic extremes such as lightning, severe rain, floods,
and so on.
Procedures for event management should also help event staff accomplish
their jobs more efficiently. Although the most critical processes will be those related to
safety, there should also be measures in place to reduce risks to the event's profitability
and reputation. The following techniques may be used:
 Management of funds
 Food service and sanitation
 Garbage removal
 Competitor marshaling
 Access to some sections is restricted.
 Welcome and reception of dignitaries who are visiting.
 During the event, announcements will be made over the loudspeaker.
 Free merchandise or food and drink giveaways
 Fundraising and raffles

Interviewing Event Staff

Providing training to event personnel (and volunteers) is an important part of
risk management. Presuming that protocols have been reviewed and that individuals
will know what to do in an emergency is a risky condition. Because the Event
Manager is ultimately responsible, it is an acceptable use of the Event
Manager's time to meet with Event Staff, either individually or in groups, to assess their
procedural understanding.
General Programs/Sports Management
Many people in the sports sector have earned a sports management degree,
which is a profession that focuses on the commercial aspects of sports. Individuals in
this field are responsible for the planning, organizing, managing, and budgeting of a
department or organization whose primary objective is connected to sports or physical
activities. Finance, marketing, leadership, facility management, and event
management are all responsibilities of sports management professionals. Municipal
leisure, private groups, social organizations, government athletic activities, amateur
sport, college-level athletics, and professional sports are all examples of where sports
management is used.

64
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Physical Arrangements/Venue of Sports Activities

When looking for a venue, keep the following in mind:

1. Location 5. Ambiance
2. Minimums Capacity 6. Accessibility
3. Services Provided 7. Acoustics
4. Layout 8. Cost and Event Date Flexibility

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH EVENTS

All leisure groups should examine and analyze their existing activities on a
regular basis to ensure that the setting is safe for participants, officials, volunteers, and
spectators. In the preparation of new events, this assessment procedure becomes
even more critical. Failure to recognize the risks associated with occurrences might
have severe consequences because of:
 Reputational damage
 monetary setback
 Infrastructure damage
 Players' injuries
 Overworked employees
 A loss of equipment
 Over-resourcing of one goal results in under-resourcing of other goals
The first step in planning any new event is to do a feasibility assessment. The
purpose of such research is to discover and assess the event's benefits and risks, as
well as to establish what concerns must be addressed in order to properly stage the
event.
The feasibility study's main purpose should be to identify any potential risks, such as:
 The amount of time it takes to plan an event (years, months, weeks)
 The event's date and whether it overlaps with any other events that might have
a substantial impact on the event's success
 The budget and whether or not the event can be held without losing money.
 The level of community, government, and parent body assistance that can be
obtained.
 The availability of sufficient resources, such as equipment, labor, funds, and
facilities.
 The event's environmental effect, as well as if it would generate traffic
congestion, garbage, noise, or illumination leakage in the nearby community.
 Permits, landowner authorization, alcohol licensing, and fundraising rules are
all legal issues.
In addition to the foregoing, because athletic activities are inherently
dangerous, a detailed analysis of hazards to human safety is required. All event
coordinators must first and foremost establish measures to ensure the safety and well-
being of all attendees. This obligation also includes taking into account the dangers
that may arise if parents who are spectators fail to keep little children under control.
Small toddlers, for example, may harm themselves in the stands by rushing and
leaping from aisle to aisle, step to step, and seat to seat. The following are some of
the health and safety risks linked with events:

65
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

 Surfaces that are uneven, slick, or feature potholes, causing competitors or

spectators to trip, slip, or fall.
 Balls, pucks, discuss, and javelins are examples of projectiles used during an
event.
 Obstacles that individuals may collide with or smash their heads on
 Hygiene in the kitchen
 Brawls, abuse, and harassment are all examples of competitive
aggressiveness.
Event organizers will not be held accountable if a reasonable attempt was
made to identify dangers and procedures were taken to control those risks. To put it
another way, the event planning committee must look to have done a good job
managing risks.
Event Safety

A variety of scenarios are presented here that illustrate the spectrum of dangers
connected with large audiences during sporting events. Despite the fact that some of
these events appear to be unlikely, they do happen. As an event organizer, you must
have a plan in place to deal with these issues if and when they arise.
Emergency Scenarios
What happens if . . .
1. If a fan in one of the stands has a heart attack and requires immediate medical
assistance?
2. A smoke canister is set off in one of the stands, causing crowds to rush in all
directions in an attempt to flee?
3. One of the parachutists (seen above) falls severely and is suspected of having
spinal injuries?
4. One of the stands has a capacity that exceeds the design limit.
5. An earthquake at the time of the event.
6. There a power outage during the event?

It is critical for event planners to have a contingency plan in place. The goals of
such a strategy would be to mitigate the potential repercussions of an emergency by
providing training to event employees in the following areas:
 At sporting events, be aware of several forms of emergencies.
 Responding an emergency scenario as soon as possible
 Steps to be done to get medical help (e.g., an ambulance) to people who need
it.
 Crowd control, direction, and communication
 Resuming normal activities as soon as possible

An emergency plan lays out the organization's rules and processes for dealing with
abrupt and unexpected events that necessitate quick action.

66
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Elements of an Emergency Plan

The following aspects should be included in an emergency plan, along with the
necessary documentation:
1. Estimation of the magnitude and character of the anticipated events, as well as
the likelihood of their happening. It is strongly advised that a vulnerability
analysis be carried out.
2. Developing a strategy with the help of other agencies such as emergency
services, the fire department, and the police.
Procedures:
1. Raise the alarm
2. Invoke the disaster plan
3. Communication is essential.
4. Non-essential workers are evacuated via pre-determined exits to pre-
determined safe assembly areas.
5. Appoint the team to their tasks and obligations
6. Incident commander on the job
7. The primary controller of the site
8. Control room for emergencies (if required)
9. Action on the ground, such as notifying employees and students, ordering
evacuation, and verifying that the evacuation is complete.
10. Foreign agencies are informed, the public is given notice, external help is
requested, and the media is notified.
11. Where should wounded people be treated, and how should they be
treated?
12. Are there enough first-aid facilities on the premises?
The strategy should include how personnel on the scene of the incident may take
action. The plan should also include the whole sequence of important workers who will
be contacted, taking into account any absences due to illness or vacations, as well as
any other manpower changes. The necessity to prepare procedures for an
authoritative dissemination of information to the media should be factored into
emergency planning. A person would be appointed to receive public inquiries. All staff
involved in the emergency plan should get appropriate training.
Following the completion of the Emergency Plan and adequate training, the plan
should be put to the test in one of three ways:
A. A large-scale exercise to test command, coordination, and communication
systems
B. Tabletop exercises can be used to evaluate some components of an
emergency plan while without disrupting normal operations.
C. Specific parts of the strategy, such as communication and evacuation, might
be put to the test.
The Emergency Plan must be updated on a regular basis. Changes in employees,
phone numbers, and storage places will all be taken into consideration. This need
should be incorporated into the plan, and it should be assigned to a specific person.

67
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

THE EVENT PROGRAMME

PROGRAMME
 It is the sequence of events from the start to the finish of the event.
 During a SPORT EVENT, the Programme sets which contestants engage at
what time.
 The times of lectures and workshops, as well as the subjects and presenters,
are all specified in the CONFERENCE Program.
 The times of lectures and workshops, as well as the subjects and presenters,
are all specified in the CONFERENCE Program.
 As a result, the Program is likely to be the event's most important organizational
component.
Sticking to the Program's timings is an important performance indicator from the
standpoint of the participant's satisfaction. Failure to complete an event on time will
almost certainly result in participant complaints and dissatisfaction on the part of all
concerned parties.

When an event runs

beyond time, people might
suffer serious consequences,
therefore commencing the
event before the specified time
is definitely not an option.

While creating the

Program, event planners must
estimate the length of time each
activity will take as exactly as
possible.
Furthermore, a time
delay between each action
must be included into these
calculations.
People and equipment
must always be moved,
introductions and thank-yous must be given, announcements must be made, and
refreshments and toilet breaks must be scheduled. Making several calculations with a
calculator or spreadsheet will undoubtedly be required when preparing the official
Program. The draft Program will very definitely be changed and updated several times
before it is ready for publication. When putting together the official program, keep the
following points in mind:
1. All Program participants who were involved directly were consulted.
2. Estimating the duration of each activity.
3. Assuring that "ceremonial" activities, such as opening and/or closing
ceremonies, speeches, award presentations, and entertainment, are included
in the program.
4. Guaranteeing that the venue will be open for the duration of the event.
5. Choosing a date or dates that do not conflict with other big events.

68
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

6. Including all the "downtime" between activities

7. The sequence of events
8. How will the printed Program be distributed?

EVENT CEREMONIES
 The importance of ceremonial aspects of events should not be underestimated.
 Among the activities are opening and closing speeches, musical fanfares,
national anthem performances, award and flower presentations, dignitary
visits, flag raising, and special exhibitions. This adds to the event's emotional,
symbolic, and entertaining significance.
 Ceremonies are more common if events are of national importance, are
televised, and have big sponsors.
 For the group organizing the event, failing to incorporate ceremonial activities
is a missed opportunity.

Some points to consider in adding ceremony to the event programme are:

 Make backup arrangements for dignitaries who fail to show up or arrive late.

 Capturing and placing the audience to observe the event - this is difficult if the
audience is distributed too widely.

 Ceremonies that aren't well-organized, such as rehearsals, might backfire

disastrously.

 Consider the optimal time for ceremonies in the event schedule - try to avoid
having dignitaries arrive at inconvenient times or when there are just a few
people present, i.e. when the audience is at its lowest.

SELECTING THE VENUE

Step 1: Analyze the event's need for a venue

To determine what sort of venue is needed, several questions must be answered.
The preceding are only a few of the considerations to ponder. Is an indoor or
outdoor location required?
 Is there a minimum audience size for the event?
 When it comes to setup and cleanup, how long will we need the venue?
 Is it vital to choose a location that is easily accessible by public transportation?

Step 2: Investigate possible venue

In a larger metropolitan area, there may be a large number of locations to
choose from.

69
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Outside of big cities, however, possibilities may be severely limited. If your

organization does not own and operate an excellent venue for your event, event
planners should perform research using the following methods:

 Contacting government bodies to see if they can keep and publish a directory
of athletic, cultural, and educational facilities.
 Advising industry peak groups that represent organizations in the sport and
leisure and/or entertainment industries.
 Using the "Yellow Pages" Directory or the "Yellow Pages" Internet web site to
do a search.
 Searching an electronic database of telephone numbers by name or company
type using one of the commercially available CD-ROM packages.
 Contacting particular schools, colleges, and institutions
 Calling a venue and requesting assistance; if they are unable to assist you,
they will most likely send you to someone who can.
 Event organizers and/or sports administrators with telephoning expertise.

All knowledge acquired through venue exploration, including subjective remarks,

should be saved for future use. Event organizers should create their own database.

Step 3: Make site visits

It's essential to go on a site tour once several potential sites have been
selected. Most members are more than willing to show costumers around. The purpose
of a site visit is to evaluate the venue's suitability. In the table below, five factors of
appropriateness are recognized and described.

Venue suitability

Dimensions • The area must be suitable for the event, i.e. rules must be
followed (if a sport). Ceiling height must be adequate for
indoor settings.

Environment • The venue should appeal to all attendees.

• The location should tend to be pleasant and well-kept.
• For indoor locations, lighting and air temperature regulation
must be taken into account.
• Comfortable seating with a good view of the level is
necessary. Aside from the performance area, there should be
relaxation places.
• Outdoor venues - beneficial characteristics include adequate
drainage, lighting, shade, and wind protection.

Facilities • Enough locker rooms, bathrooms, and saunas, among other

amenities
• Food preparation spaces, kitchens, and canteens
• Media and event staff have offices or conference spaces.

70
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

• Telephone, fax, and Internet services

• There is an available public address system.

Position • Is easily accessible by public transportation

• Proximity to the bulk of participants
• Adequate lodging at a reasonable distance
• Shops within minutes away

Cost • The cost of the location must be within the event's budgetary
constraints.
Preceding list does not include any equipment. Organizations that hire venues
may be expected to supply and transport the equipment necessary for their events to
the venue.
Basketball hoops and backboards, indoor soccer goals, volleyball nets, and
other items connected with popular indoor sports may be excluded from this restriction.
However, this may only be the case if the desired site is an indoor sports facility. When
a cultural site, such as a theater, is sought for a sport like Olympic Weightlifting, venue
management cannot be expected to provide equipment.

Step 4: Agree on price and terms

After you've identified a few viable places, the next step is to barter with venue
management to get the best deal possible. Although the venue's management will
have defined fees, don't rule out the possibility of negotiating a reduced price or
additional services.
If getting a reduced hourly rate proves unattainable, you might be able to get
some free time, or free use of another portion of the building, or free access to sound
equipment, or even free additional staff, such as security.

Step 5: Make a booking and confirm

It's time to make a reservation once you've settled on the best venue for your
event. Despite the fact that you may make a reservation over the phone, you will almost
certainly get a contract in the mail within a few days that states: Facilities have been
reserved.

• Scheduled dates and times.

• Required payments, such as a deposit and final payment
• Other contractual responsibilities, such as cleaning
• Contact information

Never assume that reservation is secure and put it off until the last week before
the event, it must be signed and returned the contract with a check deposit. It's well
worth the time to stay in touch with the venue management and double-check the
reservation is secure.

71
Physical Education 221 Recreational Leadership

Step 6: Make further site visits

Performing further site inspections will help you to check that nothing has
changed, or that any changes that do occur will not have an impact on your event.
There are several options for lighting, fixture removal, equipment, and decoration.
Additional site visits, such as shipping in equipment, are also useful in arranging your
event.
HOSPITALITY IN EVENTS
Hospitality should be considered an important part in improving the experience
of event viewers.
Enhancing the spectator's experience has two primary goals: encourage them to:
1. Return to the event frequently.
2. Promote the event in the neighborhood via word of mouth.

Event planners must consider more than just the refreshment stand and be
aware of industry trends about how sport and recreation groups are enhancing
participant benefits.
Managers should look into some of the greatest events in their town to see
what other organizations are offering as far as attendees are concerned. The supply
of food and beverages is sometimes referred to as "hospitality." The Collins dictionary
defines "hospitable" as "welcoming visitors and strangers." Event planners must think
about their event from the participant's or viewer's perspective.

Some tips for helping spectator "guests" feel more at ease are as follows:
1. Seating
2. Food and hydration
3. A welcoming area for dignitaries and other high-ranking officials.
4. Event staff man the information booths.
5. Public toilets, washrooms, and baby changing places are of a high grade.
6. Standard restrooms are available.
7. Accessible facilities for individuals with disabilities
8. There will be giveaways and fortunate door prizes.
9. Masseurs and lockers are among the extra amenities available to contestants.
10. Directions to the location may be found on the website.
11. Parking assistance is provided
12. A good public announcement system is essential.
13. Function that marks the end of an event
