Saudi Sport Benchmarking

Eurogroup Consulting offers Saudi Sport Benchmarking services to help sports authorities, federations, clubs, and event organizers across Saudi Arabia evaluate performance, enhance governance, and align with the Kingdom’s ambitious Vision 2030 Sports Sector Development Strategy.

With Saudi Arabia emerging as a regional hub for major sporting events and athletic excellence, benchmarking provides a structured, data-driven approach to understanding how organizations, facilities, and programs perform compared to global standards. Our insights empower decision-makers to improve efficiency, expand participation, and deliver world-class sporting experiences.

Through Saudi Sport Benchmarking, we help clients align operational practices, financial management, and performance metrics with international best practices and national regulations established by the Ministry of Sport (MoS) and the Saudi Olympic & Paralympic Committee (SOPC).

Our Saudi Sport Benchmarking Services

• Governance and Organizational Benchmarking

We assess governance structures, leadership effectiveness, and institutional performance across sports organizations and federations. Benchmarking includes governance transparency, strategic planning, and board oversight against international models such as the IOC and FIFA frameworks.

By comparing practices with leading sports entities both inside and outside Saudi Arabia, we identify governance gaps and provide actionable recommendations to improve accountability, operational clarity, and decision-making efficiency. This ensures that Saudi sports institutions maintain strong governance aligned with Vision 2030’s emphasis on integrity and performance.

• Athlete Development and Performance Benchmarking

We evaluate the effectiveness of talent identification, training, and athlete development systems across national and regional sports programs. Our benchmarking covers coaching quality, athlete support systems, and facility standards—comparing them against global high-performance centers.

Through data analysis, we help the Ministry of Sport (MoS) and federations measure how their training models align with global benchmarks and how Saudi athletes’ progress compares internationally. This supports the Kingdom’s goal of cultivating elite athletes capable of competing at world-class levels while promoting grassroots participation across Saudi Arabia.

• Commercial and Sponsorship Benchmarking

The sports industry is becoming a vital economic contributor in Saudi Arabia. We benchmark revenue generation, sponsorship models, fan engagement strategies, and media rights performance across clubs and federations.

Our analysis identifies how leading Saudi sports entities perform financially relative to counterparts in Europe, Asia, and the GCC. These insights guide organizations in diversifying income streams, enhancing fan experiences, and increasing commercial sustainability—critical to achieving Vision 2030’s objective of expanding the sports economy’s GDP contribution.

• Event Management and Fan Engagement Benchmarking

We benchmark operational efficiency and audience engagement across sports events—from international tournaments to local leagues. Metrics include ticket sales, attendance rates, broadcast viewership, digital fan interaction, and post-event satisfaction.

By comparing these results with international sporting events, we help event organizers in Saudi Arabia elevate spectator experiences and improve operational logistics. Our benchmarking also supports the Saudi Sports for All Federation (SFA) in measuring community engagement and promoting mass participation across the Kingdom.

• Infrastructure and Facility Benchmarking

We evaluate stadiums, arenas, training centers, and sports academies on capacity utilization, energy efficiency, accessibility, and sustainability. This analysis compares Saudi facilities to international standards for safety, fan comfort, and smart technology integration.

Through our benchmarking, we help Saudi Arabia’s sports authorities identify modernization needs and prioritize investments that enhance athlete performance and audience experience. These insights contribute to achieving the national vision of developing state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible sports infrastructure.
