Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to develop and apply an organizational excellence scale for sports club management and to identify the level of organizational excellence in sports clubs from the perspective of administrative members in Maysan Governorate. Materials and Methods: This study used a descriptive survey design. The research population consisted of 171 members of sports club administrative bodies in Maysan Governorate. The sample was divided into an exploratory sample of 11 members, a scale-construction sample of 90 members, and an application sample of 70 members. The Organizational Excellence Scale was developed through expert validation, item analysis, internal consistency testing, and reliability analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS and Microsoft Excel. Results: The Organizational Excellence Scale consisted of 32 items distributed across eight domains: clarity of goals, organizational trust, morale, adaptability, resource utilization, cohesion, creativity, and problem-solving. The application results showed a high level of organizational excellence, with a mean score of 82.765 compared with a hypothetical mean of 64. Most respondents were classified at the high level, followed by the very high and medium levels. Conclusions: The developed scale showed acceptable psychometric indicators and can be used to assess organizational excellence in sports clubs. The findings indicate that sports clubs in Maysan Governorate generally demonstrate a high level of organizational excellence, although continued improvement is needed in administrative coordination, resource utilization, and institutional development.
