Abstract

The rapid growth of amateur football clubs in Surabaya presents great opportunities for talent development and social cohesion, but it also comes with managerial challenges such as unclear organizational structure, lack of financial transparency, limited promotion, and the absence of operational standards for matches. This article presents the results of a community service program based on capacity building, designed to strengthen the managerial capacity of amateur football club managers in Surabaya. The activities focused on a one-day face-to-face workshop for representatives from 30 clubs, utilizing interactive lectures, local case studies, targeted discussions, and the distribution of practical handouts including organizational structure templates, code of conduct, one-page financial reports, content calendars, and matchday checklists. The core materials covered five areas: governance & legal, planning & OKR, finance & accountability, marketing & sponsorship, and operations & safeguarding. The program concludes that a brief, capacity-building workshop can trigger the initial professionalization of amateur football clubs through measurable, easy-to-adopt, and replicable minimum viable governance practices. These findings are relevant as a model for strengthening governance and management of amateur clubs in Indonesia, while also supporting a more professional, accountable, and sustainable community sports ecosystem.

Review

The article, "Pendekatan Capacity Building dalam Peningkatan Kapasitas Manajerial Pengelola Klub Sepak Bola Amatir di Surabaya," addresses a highly relevant and timely issue concerning the managerial challenges faced by amateur football clubs, specifically in Surabaya. Given the significant role such clubs play in talent development and social cohesion, the study's focus on enhancing their managerial capacity through a capacity-building approach is commendable. The paper presents a concise overview of a community service program designed to tackle prevalent issues like unclear organizational structures, financial opacity, limited promotion, and the absence of operational standards. A key strength of this work lies in its practical, intervention-based methodology. The abstract clearly outlines a structured, one-day workshop model delivered to representatives from 30 clubs, employing interactive lectures, local case studies, and practical handouts. The breadth of material covered, spanning governance, finance, marketing, and operations, demonstrates a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted challenges amateur clubs face. The program's success in providing "measurable, easy-to-adopt, and replicable minimum viable governance practices" is particularly noteworthy, suggesting a promising pathway towards the initial professionalization of these grassroots organizations. This practical toolkit approach is a valuable contribution. While the findings suggest a positive impact in triggering initial professionalization, the abstract hints at potential areas for deeper exploration. Future research could benefit from longitudinal studies to assess the sustained impact of these brief interventions and the actual adoption rates of the proposed practices over time. Further detail on how "initial professionalization" was measured or observed would also strengthen the conclusions. Nevertheless, the article presents a robust model for strengthening governance and management within the amateur sports ecosystem in Indonesia. Its practical implications for promoting a more professional, accountable, and sustainable community sports environment make it a valuable contribution, warranting publication as a strong example of applied community development.
