Sports Organisation — Current Reality

What is your organisation
bleeding this season?

Performance on the field is the visible result of everything happening off it. This calculator surfaces the true financial cost of disharmony, mental overload and nervous system strain — across your entire organisation, from boardroom to dressing room. The costs that never appear in the match report are often the ones that determine it.

Club Profile
Enter figures for your entire organisation. Estimate conservatively where exact figures are unavailable.
Select your primary sport.
The primary level at which your first team competes.
Number of registered first team players including reserves typically available for selection.
Average gross annual salary per first team player across the squad.
Total annual club revenue from all sources combined.
Total annual salary spend across all staff — players, coaching, medical, management, commercial and administration.
All non-playing staff — coaches, medical, analysts, commercial, administration, management and operations.
Average gross annual salary across all non-playing staff.
Revenue & Commercial
Disharmony affects every revenue stream. These figures allow the full financial picture to emerge.
Annual income from television and broadcast rights including league distribution and performance bonuses.
Total annual income from all sponsors and commercial partners.
Total income from ticket sales, hospitality and matchday spending.
Prize money and performance bonuses received last season including cup competitions.
Where the club finished in the league last season.
The position budgeted for or expected based on squad investment level.
Organisational Harmony & Leadership
This is where most clubs are blind. Disharmony in the boardroom, between ownership and management, between sporting director and coaching staff — it flows directly to players. They feel everything. Even what is never said.
How aligned and harmonious is the relationship between ownership, board members and the executive leadership. 10 = fully aligned and stable. 1 = significant tension, competing agendas or instability.
How clearly aligned are the sporting director and head coach on philosophy, squad building and objectives. Misalignment here is one of the most common hidden drivers of underperformance.
Approximate percentage of non-playing staff who left the organisation in the past two years. High turnover in backroom staff is a direct signal of organisational disharmony.
Number of formal or significant informal conflicts between staff members — coaching team, medical, commercial, management — last season.
Number of head coach or significant assistant coach changes in the past two years. Each change resets the nervous system of the entire squad.
How clearly, honestly and consistently does leadership communicate with staff and players. 10 = highly transparent and consistent. 1 = unclear, inconsistent or withheld communication that creates anxiety and rumour.
Your honest assessment of how well non-playing staff are coping with the demands of the role. 10 = high wellbeing, energised and committed. 1 = significant burnout, disengagement or quiet resignation.
Estimated total hours per week across leadership and management spent managing internal politics, conflicts or misalignments rather than on performance and results.
Injuries & Player Availability
Injuries are not random. Overloaded nervous systems recover slower, reinjure more often, and create ripple effects across the entire squad.
Total individual injury incidents across the first team squad last season.
Average days a player was unavailable per injury — from injury date to full return to training.
Total player-matches missed across the squad last season. One player missing three matches = 3.
Total annual spend on medical staff, physiotherapy, rehabilitation, imaging and injury treatment.
Players consistently overplayed because squad members were unavailable. Creates second-wave injury risk and accelerated nervous system fatigue.
Approximate percentage of last season's injuries that were reinjuries of a previously injured area. High reinjury rates indicate incomplete nervous system recovery.
Squad Harmony & On-Field Performance
The dressing room atmosphere is the most powerful performance variable that never appears in a tactics meeting.
Cohesion, trust and collective energy within the squad. 10 = deeply unified. 1 = significant fragmentation or tension.
How consistent is performance across the season. 10 = highly consistent. 1 = highly volatile — strong one week, collapse the next.
How significant is the performance drop in away fixtures. 10 = massive gap. 1 = no meaningful difference.
Occasions where positive runs ended unexpectedly — leads surrendered, form reversals without clear tactical explanation.
Reported or known interpersonal conflicts or significant tensions within the squad last season.
First team players whose contracts expire within the current season. Contract uncertainty is a significant and underestimated source of squad mental load.
Revenue Leakage & Missed Targets
Underperformance and disharmony have a direct and quantifiable impact on every commercial relationship the club holds.
Total value of sponsorship performance bonuses not triggered due to underperformance.
Approximate percentage decrease in average home attendance compared to the previous season.
Estimated prize money not earned due to earlier-than-expected cup or playoff exits.
Estimated reduction in transfer value of players who underperformed relative to contract value. Players in overload develop slower and attract lower fees.
How positive, engaged and constructive is the supporter culture. 10 = strong energy that lifts the team. 1 = hostile or disengaged supporter base that adds pressure to an already strained squad.
Current external perception of the club — among potential signings, sponsors and media. 10 = strong and attractive brand. 1 = damaged reputation affecting commercial and recruitment potential.
