Abstract
(Thanks to DTRF) | "Door privatiseringen, bezuinigingen en een nieuwe visie op sport en realisatie van sportaccommodaties is de sportmarkt in korte tijd ingrijpend aan het veranderen. De algemene teneur is dat het zwaartepunt meer bij de verenigingen komt te liggen. Vakblad Fieldmanager hield de afgelopen maanden een onderzoek wat de twee belangrijkste stakeholders verwachten van de toekomst en van elkaar en de markt vinden." |
