Assignment Instructions
This assignment has two parts and an introduction. Carefully read and follow the guidelines below to ensure your work meets all requirements.
Program Selection (Introduction)
- Program Requirements:
- Must have a set start and end date.
- Cannot be a team; it must be a sport-based program.
- Must be an existing sport program for which you can provide a link or detailed information.
Part A: Mission and Vision
- Mission Statement:
- Create a mission statement for the program.
- Do not use or copy existing mission statements.
- Vision Statement:
- Create a vision statement for the program.
- Similarly, ensure it is original and distinct from any existing statements.

- Refer to lecture materials to clarify how your statements align with the requirements of a proper mission and vision.
Part B: Evaluations
- Formative Evaluation:
- Develop evaluation tools/questions for assessing the program during its progression.
- Create separate evaluations for each role (e.g., instructor, owner, parent, participant, volunteer, etc.).
- Summative Evaluation:
- Develop evaluation tools/questions for assessing the program after its completion.
- Again, include distinct evaluations tailored to each role involved in the program.
- Linking Questions to Program:
- Ensure your evaluation questions are specific, relevant, and clearly tied to the program's components.
- Avoid assuming that the person completing the evaluation has your level of knowledge (e.g., use accessible language).
Submission Guidelines
- Format:
- The format is flexible (e.g., Word document, PowerPoint, or Excel), but all content must be compiled into a single file for submission.
