Competition Manager


Job Description
A competition manager manages and co-ordinates the planning and implementation of a programme of inter-school competition within a School Sport Partnership (SSP) using the national school competition framework as the basis.

A typical day in a life of a Competition Manager
A typical day for me as a Competition Manager is planning, organising and evaluating competitions that I have delivered or be involved with.

I have to align each school competition with the National Competition Framework. My aims are to try and increase the number of participants or the quality of the event for the future so that more young people get involved in sport.

I also spend a lot of my time talking and meeting with National Governing Bodies, local authorities, Heads of PE, School Sports Coordinators, Partnership Development Manager’s and other relevant organisations.
