                          More automated
                          processes

Mass Communication


                          Pre-write multiple types of messages:

                              Procedural Reminders

                              Waiting List Updates

                              Potential Changes

Delegate Effectively


                          One person cannot be
                          everywhere!

                          Pre-train your
                          volunteers.

Game Schedule Planning

                          Consider combinations you can accept.

                              For example, 5, 6, 8 team divisions

                          Finalize tie patterns long before actually
                          needed.

                          Manage small tweaks as event draws near.

During the Tournament


                          Rely on your pre-
                          established processes

                          Take careful notes

                              iPhone®/Android™

                          Utilize more than one
                          person!

                              Maybe 1 per field
                              or site?

Manage The Transition

                          Wrap Up can be a blur

                          Have a pre-set list of objectives so items
                          don’t linger.

                              Award Distribution

                              Logging money & materials

                              Lost & Found

Future Tournaments

                          Review your event
                          notes

                          Gather data from
                          others

                          Usually the biggest
                          missed opportunity
