Risk management is the process of reducing or eliminating the risk of harm to participants and loss to an organization through injury and subsequent lawsuits. Risk management plays a crucial role in any sport and recreation facility or program. If risks in an organizations facility are not identified and properly taken care of then that facility can suffer some major consequences. When conducting a risk management audit, the auditor must follow a three step process: recognition, analysis, and action.

The risk management audit conducted on McAlister Field House was focused mainly on safety issues, physical assets and regulations for the facility. The audit was only centered around these certain areas because contracts, business practices and personnel management information was not provided by the facility manager of McAlister Field House. The audit recognized the risks that were visible to anyone who would have walked through the facility. The goal was to not only focus on the main areas of the facility but also the locker rooms and storage sections that aren’t accessible to members of the public. McAlister had numerous risks that need to be mitigated as soon as possible to prevent risk reoccurring in the future.

The resources that were utilized during the process was Tim McGee who is employed by The Citadel to oversee the physical plant and all facilities on campus. Mr. McGee insisted on giving a tour of McAlister Field House and walked through every section of the facility pointing out the most visible risks. The risks pointed out by Mr. McGee were then documented with multiple photographs and brief notes to ensure the risk was recognized fully with all information needed. During the time of the tour, McAlister was set up for the 2018 NCAA Rifle Championships and had numerous added additions that aren’t normally in the facility. This event had little effect on changing the course of the methods and purpose of the audit and the risk management audit was still conducted as normal. The walk through of the facility took over an hour and Mr. McGee did his best to show every part of the facility so it could be properly reviewed. The floor plans of the facility were not provided during the audit, however, this disadvantage did not affect the audit in any way besides not having a document to use as a reference for typing this audit. The output that was received from Mr. McGee was very in-depth and helpful in ways such as understanding the importance of the risk. McAlister Field House was well reviewed in its entirety and Mr. McGee
