Target Groups for Training Management

The success of a football club relies not only on the talent of its players, but also on the collaboration between the club management, the coaching team, and the players. These three groups form a unit that is responsible for the training management process and the fulfillment of the club's visions.

Let's explore how each target group contributes to this collective effort.

The club management plays a vital role in setting the overall direction and vision for the team. They are responsible for creating a strategic plan that outlines the club's long-term goals, financial considerations, and infrastructure development. By providing the necessary resources and support, they lay the foundation for a successful training management process. Whether it's securing training facilities, investing in equipment, or hiring qualified staff, the club management ensures that all necessary components are in place to foster a culture of excellence.

The coaching team is at the forefront of the training management process. Comprised of head coaches, assistant coaches, and specialized trainers, they are responsible for designing and implementing training programs that maximize the potential of each player. The coaching team analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the squad, formulates effective training strategies, and tailors individualized development plans. They provide guidance, motivation, and tactical insights to enhance the players' skills and overall performance. Through their expertise and dedication, the coaching team plays a critical role in shaping the team's identity and achieving the club's visions.

Finally, the players are the ones who execute the training plans on the field. They are the heart and soul of the club, embodying its values and aspirations. The players take responsibility for their own development, working tirelessly to improve their skills, physical fitness, and tactical understanding. They demonstrate commitment, discipline, and teamwork during training sessions, pushing themselves and their teammates to achieve new heights. The players' dedication and performance not only contribute to the success of the club but also inspire fans and create a sense of pride and loyalty.

In conclusion, the training management process in a football club is a collective effort involving the club management, coaching team, and players. Each group plays a distinct but interconnected role in the pursuit of the club's visions. Together, they form a unit that is responsible for the fulfillment of the club's visions and the achievement of success.

Roles and Permissions in SAP Sports One

The target groups for training management have different roles and areas of responsibility that they assume in the club. This is associated with their own area of responsibility, which is linked to special individual authorizations. This role and authorization concept of sports clubs can also be fully mapped in SAP Sports One.

Note

To be able to manage roles and permissions of persons in your club, you need to have the role of system administrator assigned to you by your SAP Sports One contact person.

If you have the required role and the permissions, you can manage roles and permissions in SAP Sports One at Users in the admin section.

Here, select the user to whom you would like to assign a new role or permissions. To do this, use the search bar or the advanced filter option. Once you have found the respective user, choose the ellipsis (…).

In Roles, you are now able to assign a new role to this user. This new role will be used for the whole SAP Sports One system. Depending on the selection, the roles are already linked to specific authorizations. For example, a person with the role of a trainer can access the training catalog, but not the medical catalog.

Note

An overview of all SAP Sports One user roles and the corresponding permissions is available on the SAP Help Portal (User Roles | SAP Help Portal).

Depending on the role assigned, it is possible that different authorizations are needed. These additional authorizations can be assigned via the permissions of the respective club areas. Read and write permissions can be granted for each functional area of SAP Sports One. In addition, a distinction can be made between the authorizations for each team within the club.
