Title: Factors influencing the management of a selected floorball club Objectives: The main aim of the thesis is to reveal the key factors that influence the management of the floorball club TJ Znojmo LAUFEN CZ by means of internal and external analysis. Methods: The research included internal environment analysis, PEST analysis, Porter's 5 forces model and SWOT analysis. Data from document analysis and interviews were used to compile the analyses. The results from these analyses were summarized and evaluated in a SWOT analysis, which resulted in a strategy that was used to set a set of objectives. Results: The most important factors that showed up in the analysis were the club's good relations with sponsors, the option to use the city's sports hall, the departure of players and the lack of training facilities. The most likely and most promising opportunities include the possibility of obtaining subsidies for a new hall through increased funding from the city or sponsors that would enable the club to meet the requirements for using the NSA grant program. What threatens the club is an increase in substitutes and competition. So far, however, this does not affect the club and so is not one of the issues on which, the club management should somehow change their long term planning. Keywords: strategic...

Chaloupka, Václav ; Bačáková, Radka (advisor) ; Voráček, Josef (referee)
Title: Sponsors' perception of canoe slalom Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to find out how Czech companies approach sports sponsorship.

The effect of athletes in the marketing communication of companies on consumers of the Z generation
Skrbek, Matěj ; Voráček, Josef (advisor) ; Opelík, Daniel (referee)
Title: The effect of athletes in the marketing communication of companies on consumers of the Z generation Objectives: The main objective of the bachelor thesis is to find out through focus groups whether athletes appearing in companies' marketing communications influence the purchasing decision process of Generation Z consumers and if so, to what extent. Methods: The qualitative method of focus groups was used in this study. The scenario for these focus groups was developed based on operationalization and literature search. Data analysis was conducted using a summarizing protocol and then the grounded theory method was used to create a model of the effect of athletes in corporate marketing communications on Generation Z consumers. Results: Athletes in marketing communication have a positive effect on the credibility of the entire message, as well as on promoting brand loyalty and building product awareness among Generation Z representatives. However, this effect varies from one Generation Z to another, as they are demanding consumers who require originality and an individual approach. Companies must therefore choose the appropriate form of communication to reach as many Generation Z consumers as possible.
