This volume explores sports event management from a Caribbean, small island, developing state perspective, using the Cricket World Cup 2007 as a case study through which to identify best practices and potential improvements for the future. The conclusions drawn offer significant lessons in sports event management for both the Caribbean region and the world.
Exploring sports event management from a Caribbean, small island developing state perspective, this volume uses the events of the recently held Cricket World Cup 2007 (CWC 2007) as a launching pad for identifying best practices and the way forward. The CWC 2007 was the first time in any sport, a World Cup was staged in nine independent countries. None of the Caribbean territories hosting a match has a population larger than Jamaica''s 3.4 million; most have less than a quarter of a million people; economies are small and infrastructure limited. The hosting of this event produced significant lessons that the region and the world can learn from concerning sports event management.
