Hi Kameron,

A Day in the Life of a Sports Manager

A sports manager's day is always busy and can change depending on whether they're working with athletes, teams, or organizations. Usually, they handle many tasks at once. In the morning, they might answer emails, look over contracts, or talk with coaches and staff. Around midday, they often have meetings with clients, sponsors, or team leaders to discuss strategies and performance. In the afternoon, they might attend practices or games, scout new talent, deal with media, or manage event and travel plans.

To keep everything on track, sports managers use digital tools like project management software, shared calendars, and CRM platforms to manage deadlines and client info. They also use spreadsheets for contracts, budgets, and schedules, and they focus on the most urgent tasks first. Many use time blocking, setting aside specific hours for different tasks, like doing admin work in the morning and having meetings in the afternoon. Being flexible and adaptable is crucial because unexpected things like injuries or schedule changes can happen anytime. For your research, try reaching out to sports managers nearby to learn more about their daily work and how they stay organized.
