Résumé

More work is needed on measuring the impact of Sport for Development (SFD) organization and on the managerial structures and processes for change. The purpose of the current study was to analyze the logic model (LM) of a SFD program in Canada that provides training for high school coaches in low socioeconomic communities in Montreal. Methods: Key actors (i.e., coaches, program administrators, school directors, and sport coordinators; N=22) were interviewed about their perceptions of the different components of the organization’s LM, namely the program’s context, the initial problem it addressed, its needs, objectives, input, output, and impacts. Findings: Findings reveal the participants perceived the program as being successful by all key actors. Participants had similar understandings regarding the targeted problem and context, but their views differed regarding their understanding of the program’s activities. In addition, the key actors made suggestions to improve the program, including clarifying its objectives, reinforcing internal communication, and building stronger partnerships with the partner schools. Conclusions: Findings from the present study provide recommendations to help improve the organization’s LM. In addition, these findings can help researchers and SFD administrators reinforce essential organizational program structures and activities for better management, evaluation, and improved impact on communities.
