5 Three Main Considerations of Player Management
#1 - Player Selection: Collaboration between General/Business Manager (BM or GM), the Head Coach and Team Owners. Where do we sign players from? Pro-Days, Showcases (Combine), Tryouts, Game/Practice film College Draft Trade Free Agency Market The Equalizers: Salary Caps (NFL, NHL, NBA) Maximum price a team can spend on player salaries in a given season. Luxury Tax (MLB) - Financial penalty teams must pay if their payroll exceeds a certain amount in a given season. Both are utilized to help maintain competitiveness within the league.

Each professional team has coaches and trainers dedicated to improving the skill set, strength and conditioning of their players. Other Sources: NBA – D League MLB – Minor Leagues NFL – Arena Football Leagues or Foreign Leagues NHL – Minor Leagues
