2. MULTI-STAGE TOURNAMENTS When establishing playing schedules, tournament organizers must consider many factors, such as the type of tournament. This is because in some types, several games are played simultaneously in different locations over a long period. A multistage tournament is a format in which teams compete at different levels or stages. When a team wins, it moves forward to play another game against another opponent. If a team loses, it is ELIMINATED AND NO LONGER PLAYS. The stages of play continue until a champion is determined. For example, high school teams compete in their conference and the winner of the conference advances to the next level of competition which more than likely will be the state level of competition. A heat is a round of a competition, such as swim meets.

3. ROUND ROBIN TOURNAMENTS A tournament, as in a competitive game or sport, in which each player plays against every other player. Losing against a competitor does not result in elimination. Play continues until each participant has played all participants. The winner is determined by who won the most games.

4. PRODUCTION SCHEDULES Production schedules are timetables that establish when each activity will be performed. Before an event can take place, a variety of activities need to be completed to prepare the site or facility. For example, lighting or additional phone lines might need to be installed, or concession stands might need to be stocked. Event organizers plan for when each activity should occur and prepare the schedule to make sure the facility is ready for the event to begin. Setting a time for a rehearsal might be part of the production schedule.

5. CHANGE Change is something that occurs constantly and usually without warning. When developing a project plan, a business should always provide for change because it is inevitable that something will change. For example, a customer may add a new requirement or need a larger quantity. Being prepared to deal with any changes that may take place during the course of the project will help to make the project successful. Businesses don't provide for publicity unless the project is unique and of interest to the public.

6. PROJECT PLAN A true statement about project planning is that you can mentally walk through your project from start to finish—in a make-believe way. In your mind, you see each part of the project. Sometimes, it is helpful to develop a custom-made plan for your project, especially if it is a one-time event. Project planning does NOT help you evaluate what you have accomplished because, during the planning stage, you haven't accomplished it yet.

7. ACHIEVING OBJECTIVES Knowing exactly what it is you want to do helps you achieve your objectives. Unfortunately, it does not help you spend less money because—by detailing what you want to do—you might discover that your project will be more expensive than you realize.

8. MAINTAINING QUALITY LEVELS It's important to think ahead about how you will monitor your project so that you will know how you will keep the quality level, the schedule, and the budget intact. Monitoring occurs during project management. Thinking ahead about how you will monitor your project does NOT guarantee the availability of needed resources.
