My friends and me organized a football tournament which was a very good experience but it almost took us 3 months to plan. Firstly we started contacting teams about when are they free to play the tournament to get maximum number of participants. Secondly we started making poster and posted on the social media to get more teams. Then we looked for sponsors but after contacting almost every sports shop in Surat unfortunately we were not able to find someone. Finally we booked the turf at that dates and timings, and all was going well but then on the day of the tournament it was independence day which is why the tournament got a little delayed which is why we had to extend the turf timings. We also had kept a ref so that there are no fights in the game. In the end the tournament went well and everyone appreciated us for our efforts.
L1
Our strength was that we had a lot of contacts for the teams which is why bringing participants was no issue to us. Our weakness was that we were not able to find any sponsor for the tournament. It is important to know the strength and weaknesses so that we we can focus a lot more in the area we need to next time we are doing something like this.
L3
We planned our days and schedule so that each and every work was completed on time which was one of the key things which helped the tournament go the way we wanted. It was not tough as we divided every member of the group to a certain division like finance, marketing , finding sponsor , booking turf , etc. Planning tournaments in future will be a lot easier than now as we have learnt how to do things.
L7
The ethical issue which we faced was to keep a real match refree or to be ref by our own and take decisions. But we had kept ref for the matches as we felt it was the right thing to do plus it also gives a real match feeling for the participants. Before the tournament we felt not spending on ref and standing by ourselves would the right thing to do but as the planning went by we felt doing the right thing for the participants was the right thing.
