Reason for developing a WBS

The suggestions and idea generated during the 1st meeting were mostly unplanned and without a structure; WBS would help remove it

It would make the people associated with the project handling more accountable

It would lay the groundwork for the exact schedule and budget

Nicolette would be able to measure the progress of the project

She would be able to realize how to best allocate the resources available with her for the project

Additional information on WBS

Learn from the experience of participating in similar tournaments organized by other clubs

Consultation with project managers from other clubs who have worked on such projects

Consult her own committee members who have previously worked on such projects and divide the work based on their competencies

Consult bigger organizations like Hampshire Soccer Association to understand in detail the structure required to organize such a tournament
