Activity 1.9


                  In your country, what roles do local leaders play in the successful delivery of sport?






                  Sporting clubs

                  The structure of sport in the Pacific has many layers. Clubs have a very important
                  role in this structure. Clubs are the groups that service the sporting needs of their
                  local communities. They organise competitions, coaches, officials, uniforms, playing
                  venues and activities. They market their clubs and often play a very important role
                  in community togetherness. Clubs are often referred to as the lifeblood of sport.


                  So, without clubs there would be no need for international, national or regional
                  federations. There would not even be a need for the NOCs, ONOC or the IOC.


                  Clubs are made up of many groups of people including:
                  •  athletes/players
                  •  coaches
                  •  officials
                  •  administrators
                  •  other volunteers.
