Abstract
Although the origins of Operations Research are usually linked to the military, nowadays successful applications in different areas of the society (business, industrial, health sector and sports) can be found. In particular, applications in sports like sport tactics and strategy, scheduling and forecasting have become quite popular in the last decades. A less explored field concerns applications of Operations Research to plan and secure major sport events. This paper discusses different challenging problems related to the organization of major sport events
