Purpose of the Research: The study aimed to construct and validate a questionnaire to assess the impact of revamping efforts in Football Delhi across six domains: Organizational Hierarchy, Player Development and Talent Identification, Financial Management, Promotional Strategies, Media, and Sponsorship.
Materials and Methods: An initial 93-item questionnaire was developed and reviewed by six experts, leading to the refinement of 56 items. The content validity was confirmed using an Item-rated Content Validity Index (I-CVI) ranging from 0.83 to 1.0. A pilot study with 82 stakeholders involved in Football Delhi was conducted to assess the clarity and usability of the questionnaire. Reliability testing was performed using Cronbach's Alpha, which demonstrated strong internal consistency across all six domains.
Results: Final 55-item questionnaire showed excellent reliability (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.958). Domain-wise, Player Development and Talent Identification had a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.888, while Financial Management improved to 0.866 after item refinement. I-CVI for individual items ranged between 0.83 and 1.0, confirming the relevance of all retained items.
Conclusions: Validated questionnaire is a reliable tool for evaluating Football Delhi’s reforms across the six domains. It offers valuable insights for decision-making and strategic planning, highlighting areas like organizational structure, player development, and sponsorship as key areas of progress while identifying communication and inclusivity as areas needing improvement.
