Submit Final Project: Building an Athletic Department Budget
Develop an athletic department budget within the guidelines detailed below. The required readings include links to format examples you may use, or feel free to develop your own format. Remember to refer back to the Wiki list made in Week 1 to help get ideas in developing actual expenses as well as any advice or tips you received from the athletic director you interviewed in week 3.
Build a 1-year budget for each of the following sports and “General” expenses for the department that would not be specifically assigned to any one particular sport. The number in parentheses indicates the total number of students involved with the program.
| Football (90) | Coed Water Polo (25) | Girls Tennis (25) |
| Boys Soccer (60) | Boys Basketball (45) | Boys Golf (20) |
| Girls Soccer (60) | Girls Basketball (45) | Girls Golf (20) |

| Girls Cross-Country (40) | Baseball (45) | Boys Swimming (25) |

- You should develop your own categorical expenses as you see fit, but at a minimum these categories are to be covered for all individual sports:For outdoor sports only, add a category for “Field Maintenance” to cover paint expenses. For the purposes of this exercise, field maintenance and upkeep will not come out of your budget.
- Equipment/Uniforms
- Officials/Entry Fees
- Transportation
- For the “General” category, include at a minimum the following: Costs for items that are out of your control (coaches’ salaries and expenses, maintenance and custodial, electric, fuel, water and leases) do not need to be included.
- Medical/Trainer Supplies
- General Equipment & Maintenance
- State Tournament Travel & Expenses
- Professional Development & Registrations
- Awards
- Your completed budget should not exceed $280,000.
- Finally, create a PPT presentation that would be used to present your budget to a school board for approval. You would want to explain your expenses and justify the choices that you made.
