Abstract: Governance structure of nonprofit sports organizations involves three elements: the board, the governing board, and one or more subcommittees. The administrative board is made up of individuals or organizations registered as members, which have the right to vote on their membership status. Members of a nonprofit sports organization may include individual players or athletes, coaches, officials, administrators or other individuals. The governing board is responsible for making decisions during a mandate on behalf of the council and non-profit sports organizations. The governing board acts as the main forum of government where most organizational decisions are taken. In order to complete the objectives of governing, most non-profit sports organizations operate a system of subcommittees. The debt of the subcommittee is to focus on specific issues such as technical rules of committees, developing the training, financial management, human resources management or commercial business. Governance structures of nonprofit sports organizations were designed and analyzed extensively from three different perspectives: organizational theory, models of governance and inter-organizational relations. Each of these perspectives provide useful ways to consider the significant and recurring problems in the governance structure of nonprofit sports organizations. The organizational theory confirms that bigger organizations have become more formal, with several roles and departments of specialists and several levels of management in comparison with smaller organizations.
