11. Reading in literature
The philosophy of sport marketing is to satisfy the
needs of sport consumers, and the trend goes
beyond that.
Countless companies and/or brands have used
sports marketing to build positive brand awareness,
support retail and sales promotions and gain an
overall advantage in their market.
12. Reading from the literature
'Marketing through sport' is a
concept that that has been
used since the 1980s but that
also has increased in
importance in the last two
decades due to the growth and
expansion that the different
types of sports have enjoyed
since then.
13. Reading from the literature
The peculiarity of sports is the issue that “sport is
the only entertainment where, no matter how many
times you go back, you never know the ending.
(Last year an average of 70,000 spectator in the stadium)
14. Sports Marketing in Egypt
Egyptian sport organizations have traditionally
depended on government funding with little or no
support from private sector (Fekry, Zaki, 2006).
Recent years, the difficult economic conditions
have led to a decrease in financial support from the
government and left many Egyptian sport
federations with little choice than to look for
alternate sources of funding.
(Sport Marketing in Egypt: Prospective Challenges)
15. Sports Marketing in Egypt
Shalaby (2004) examined the funding sources
of professional Egyptian Football Clubs and
the marketing of their commercial rights. He
found that within the sport clubs, the
majority of companies (68 %) preferred to
sponsor football events. However, the lack of
scientific research and the need for market
research in sports have prevented Egyptian
sport federations from taking advantage of
marketing opportunities (Fekry, Zaki, 2006).

Sport Marketing in Egypt: Prospective
Challenges.
Ahmed Alafandi, University of Benha, Egypt, aalafandi@uottawa.ca
Benoit Séguin, University of Ottawa, Canada
This study utilized a modified Delphi technique to determine
the various challenges of marketing sports in the future.
An open-ended questionnaire was mailed to 179 experts. These
experts were randomly selected among 500 experts with at
least 10 years of experience in sports media, sports
administration, government and/or academics.
A total of 144 persons completed the questionnaire.
26. Research Paper

Challenges.
Ahmed Alafandi, University of Benha, Egypt, aalafandi@uottawa.ca
Benoit Séguin, University of Ottawa, Canada
The questionnaire asked about the probability of some events
happening in each of the environments described above and
the respondent’s judgment as to the impact of the proposed
challenge. Using a Likert Scale measurement, the respondents
were then asked to qualify the kinds of impact (very positive to
very negative) and their importance on sport marketing (very
significant to not significant).
27. Research Paper
Results / Discussions / Implications
Our analysis led to 24 possible events that best capture the
future challenges facing the Egyptian sports industry.
One of the most important issues identified was:
The need to modify general association laws in sports and
youth field. (For example, the law provides no protection
for sponsor rights).
They also refer to the positive and significant impact that
modifying taxes and customs laws would have in the field
of sport.
The cultural environment was another factor identified as
important by the participating experts. (sports events were
free).
28. Research Paper
It is projected that government funding will eventually
ceased.
The biggest challenge identified by the respondents was
the lack of expertise in this field. Hence, the development
of sport management/marketing curriculum in Egyptian
Universities may contribute to the development of sport
marketing.
