SPT 404 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric

Overview The final project for this course is the creation of a professional presentation to a potential professional athletic organization for a client who is about to enter free agency. The student/agent will be representing the prospective free agent in the professional sport of his or her choice. The athlete must be a currently playing player who is of great value to a team in the chosen sport. The purpose of this final project is for students to demonstrate their ability to professionally present a potential client who is seeking a new contract to a potential employer. The activities in the project relate to the course outcomes in a variety of manners. First, students will be developing a personal style of representation as they develop the overall presentation. Second, the project will demonstrate that students have a basic understanding of negotiation skills as they present their client in the most positive light possible. Third, the project will demonstrate that students gain the ability to recruit effectively by choosing the correct organization for their clients as well as presenting their clients in the best possible light. Finally, the project will allow students to properly apply the legal and ethical concepts of player representation, including financial and marketing strategy. The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Four, and Five. The final submission will be due in Module Seven. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:

• Develop a personal style of athletic representation through exposure to basic negotiating tactics and skills • Develop negotiating skills for arranging contracts within the parameters of professional collective bargaining agreements • Create recruiting strategies for successful networking with various sports stakeholders • Apply ethical and legal concepts to current issues of player representation, including financial and marketing strategies
