Sports Management Meeting 11/3/08

Today the SMA club discussed the budget with the Intro to Sports Management Class and came up with ideas on how to raise money for the club. The ideas the club came up with are: design and sell t-shirts at sporting events, create t-shirts for different sports, hold events on campus for all students to particiapte in, conduct a raffel during different sporting events, and a SMA club booth at different events selling SMA club merchandise. We also discussed some events the club would like to attend. Some ideas were a Hurricanes game, Fireantz game, or a different professional game. The last thing discussed was what the club wants to accomplish during the first semester. Our mission is to create higher awareness about different sports games and activities on campus, conduct high school clinics, and attend a conference by the end of the year.

-The events the club came up with to hold on campus includethe following: Ultimate Frisbee tournament, 3 on 3 Basketball tournament, Volleyball tournament, Madden and/or Fifa tournament, and Dodgeball tournament.
*if you have any more ideas please let myself or any of the other officers know
-The T-shirt design the club agreed on are: Black shirt with Green and/or Gold writing with "SMA Club" on the front with the MU shield, and on the Back either everyone in the club's name, or a schedule of MU sporting/club events. The design and t-shirt price will be finalized during the club meeting.
*if anyone has any problems or suggestions with the club t-shirt please come to the next club meeting before the shirts are ordered.

Attention: SMA Club Members

Special Olympics will be tomorrow at 11 a.m. in the Riddle Center or on the football field. Please help out tomorrow and you will receive a free t-shirt. Thank you and hopefully we will figure the next meeting and schedule events for the club before the end of the semester. Please check the website every other day.
