In this paper, I will examine the fundamental thrust of sport and recreation related to management planning by focusing on a related programming models. Thus, an approach to sport and recreational programming model adapted from the available literature will be emphasized. Apart from understanding the programming model, there is a need to better understand the application of marketing strategies for sport and recreation programmes that provided by the tourism industry which can be regarded as triggers and anchors of the engagement process. I will also outline of the issues and challenges in programming sport arid recreational activities. Finally, the suggestions towards enhancing customers‘ participation in sport and recreational activities in tourism industry will be discussed.
