The document discusses future trends in sports broadcasting, including the growth of digital technologies and fan engagement. It notes that while people once feared sports competing with other forms of entertainment like listening to music, digital technologies now enable new ways for fans to interact with sports. Live sports events will continue to be important community gatherings even as digital connectivity increases. The rise of player power and influence over revenue is also discussed as an ongoing trend in professional sports.

59. isfm does: International Sports and Facilities Management helps organisations in the sports and leisure industries understand their assets and manage them better through a number of processes we have been using (and improving) for over 20 years. We believe the key is understanding that the sport industry has unique properties and that nothing can be done without extensive consultation to understand all the intangible (read: emotional) elements. While the intangibles are important, all sporting and recreational organisations need to know and manage the boring stuff: know exactly what their assets are, manage and maintain them, monetise as appropriate, and never forget your community wants you around. Sports will always be about encouraging heaps of participation at all levels and brilliance at the elite level. We help organisations devote their energy to the sporting bit, and not on the boring stuff. Thanks to our founder, Graeme Watson, we have been doing this for 20 years and have worked in every state in Australia, across NZ and Asia and for virtually every major sporting body and many Clubs and Government entities. © www.isfm.com.au

The completed project, and the adjoining park is considered a benchmark in community and elite sports integration. www.slideshare.net/isfm/crawford-report-summary-by-isfm-draft-finding summary of the crawford report by ISFM, november 21 2009 www.cyclingmasters.tv Viocorp developed this site to create a broadcast model for the track cycling masters championship. The model demonstrated how high quality multi-camera coverage, produced efficiently (i.e., cheaply) could create multiple new revenue streams (organiser, participants, sponsors, syndication) and enable a small participation sport to reach its geographically diverse fan base. photo credits: davidsproule, sportspics, peter holmes à court more peter hac presentations: www.slideshare.net/peterhac contact and comments: peter@whitebull.com ©www.isfm.com.au
