How To Run A Safe Sports Competition After 40

Send us Fan Mail

We break down what it really takes to run a competition that feels fun, tight, and safe, using our strongman charity event as the template. We talk through the decisions we make as athletic directors so athletes, volunteers, sponsors, and spectators all leave wanting to come back. 
• treating safety as the first job, not a footnote 
• choosing controllable events and building in physical safeguards 
• managing crowds, kids, and spectator flow in a small space 
• using cleanliness and layout as part of risk reduction 
• building a reputation that grows entries without begging 
• recruiting and organizing volunteers so the day runs smoothly 
• planning for costs, seed money, weather pivots, and delays 
• using insurance and registration platforms to protect the event 
• delivering sponsor value and thinking about ROI 
• showing where charity dollars go through grants and community support 
• creating community connections that keep rippling outward
