on par with the benchmarks for their Club type

Index Analysis
What is Index Analysis?
•
Index Analysis is a tool used in research to show the variation between two
sample sets – for example, between Club X sample set and the total
Competitive Club sample set.
•
Clubs will receive new analysis and a How to Read document
Reading the Tables
Step 1: Sample Size
• Highlighted in yellow, each club’s table will have the sample size noted.
• Sample size noted if it is below statistical relevance
Reading the Tables
Step 2: Interpreting the Indexes
•
Indexes greater than 120 are green (above benchmarks)
•
Indexes between 80 and 120 are black (on par)
•
Indexes greater lower than 80 are red
•
Analytic commentary will be provided on Overall questions
Next steps

Key Success Factor 2: Ability to influence UOM
Executive
Key Success Factor 3: High participation rates
and performance results both underpin the first
two KSFs
Continuing & Emerging Themes - Clubs
Recreational & instructional clubs – participation pillar
relates to student, staff and broader UOM community
involvement in activities
Competitive clubs – performance pillar relates to athletes,
clubs and teams competing successfully at the highest level
Expanding the definition of participation - High levels of
spectatorship by students, alumni and other key stakeholders
and the quality of the spectator experience is forming part of
the evolving definition of “participation”
Continuing & Emerging Themes - Clubs
To remain relevant MU Sport activities must be aligned with
UOM strategies to enhance the student experience and
increase student engagement
MU Sport to continue to successfully implement the Sport
Capital Infrastructure Plan (SCIP) including developing a
stronger relationship with the Melbourne City Council
Leverage existing relationships to ensure that sport is
explicitly included in the UOM Planning Framework
Desired Outcome: MU Sport to have secured appropriate
training and competition facilities for all clubs and activities
Continuing & Emerging Themes - Clubs
Continue to develop Sport Foundation Donations to
contribute to a financially sustainable future for the clubs
Continue to investigate and operationalise other opportunities
to increase the financial sustainability of clubs, including club
funding (under review) and alignment with UOM strategies
Continue to support the professionalisation of all sports clubs,
understanding the differences between competitive,
instructional and recreational clubs
MU Sport to continue to host elite sports event e.g. boat race
Desired outcomes:
Clubs to be financially sustainable and to have increased
resources available to support operational activities
SCIP implementation funded outside of MU Sport operational
budget

funding be allocated for 2015
• Additional funding will be allocated in line with club objectives
congruent with Strategic Plan for Sport
• No club will have a reduction in funding as a result of the
review
Project Objectives
• Analysis of MU Sport current funding guidelines
• Web-based research of similar organisations/targeted organisations

• Draft Report  Final Report

Club Funding Summary
Background of Club Funding
• Funding currently allocated as per MU Sport’s Club Funding Guidelines
• Competitive – annual funding for seasonal sporting competitions expenses such as
external venue hire, coaching and management
• Instructional – no annual funding allocated
• Recreation - no annual funding allocated
• All Clubs – can access funding for new initiatives on a case-by-case basis
• Some Clubs – can access funding towards major equipment such as boats
Review of Club Funding
• MU Sport funding is a minor component of income required to conduct club
activities
• Competitive, instructional and recreational activities each have unique cost drivers
• Some instructional and recreational clubs offer a competitive element
• Some competitive clubs offer participation programs
• Performance is focused on the competitive clubs
• Participation is focused on instructional and recreational clubs
Performance
• Some clubs compete at the highest level but not to the extent of some other Go8
universities
• Predominantly clubs are not competing at the highest level or are doing so without
sustained success
• Issues impacting on performance may include:
• National leagues
• Aggressive community club recruitment
• Student recruitment
• Increasing demands on volunteers
Performance
• Other issues relating to performance include:
• % of University of Melbourne students competing for clubs
• Academic entry levels are extremely high
• Need to recruit form outside student/alumni population to be competitive
• Performance success is achievable given:
• Australian University Games and Championships success
• Elite Athlete Program applications
• Success of other Go8 university clubs
Performance
• Successful university sporting clubs and systems indicates that there is not a
single model, but range of strategies needed to be integrated around a high
performance culture including:
• Access to quality facilities
• Athlete recruitment and support programs
• Quality coaching
• Pathway programs
• Strategic connections with state and national bodies
• Well managed clubs with sustainable financial performance
• Centralised administrative and finance systems
Recommendations
1. A High Performance Competitive Club Strategy is developed
2. Additional funding for competitive clubs is aligned with strategies that support:
• Athlete recruitment
• Quality coaching
• Improved club management
• Increase in University of Melbourne students competing at highest level and
achieving a gender balance
• Pathway programs and University competitions
Participation
• A diverse range of participative interests and pursuits
• Other participation opportunities include:
• Fitness Services – gym and group fitness
• Campus Sport, College Sport and Community Sport
• Casual access to facilities
• High levels of UoM student engagement when compared with Competitive clubs
• Data collection of active participants is generally a manual system that can lack
accuracy
Participation
• Cost to participate is generally very low due to high levels of volunteerism
• Safety and compliance issues can be burdensome to volunteers
• Instructors paid by clubs with agreed payment sometimes not fulfilled
• Competition for flat floor activity space amongst instructional cohort and with MU
Sport Fitness Services
• Success is influenced by access to good quality and well maintained equipment
• Also influenced by suitably experienced and/or qualified volunteers, instructors and
trip leaders
Recommendations
1. Instructional and Recreational club support provided for:
• Major equipment purchases for recreational clubs
• Management of equipment and major assets
• Promotion and booking services for recreational trips
• Provide payroll and other central services for instructors
• Instructional clubs to use gate entry technology
• Volunteer training for all
