Abstract
The significance of the research lies in identifying the level of administrative strength that sports and school activities managers possess, and its contribution rate in achieving functional creativity. It also aims to understand the functional creativity that these managers possess, its importance for technical supervisors, the academic role they play, and providing a model of leadership in sports activities directorates. The research problem was focused through the researchers' redownload of some references and previous studies related to the research topic. They recently noticed a decline in the performance of sports and school activities departments, and their work is no longer as effective and influential as it used to be in overall sports activities and events, and in highlighting the impact of school sports, which is considered the mother and origin of the Iraqi sports movement. Therefore, the researchers decided to study the administrative strength of sports activity managers, who possess decision-making abilities in managing sports and school activities and their leadership role in creating functional creativity, which leads to avoiding problems in order to preserve and develop sports activities. Their efforts are evaluated through the opinions of technical supervisors, and administrative strength, due to its impact on increasing functional creativity in sports and school activities, thus the ability to face the challenges of the era and its crises, and to maintain sports and school activities. The researchers aimed to build and standardize a measure of administrative strength for the managers of sports and school activities departments in the general directorates of education in Baghdad from the perspective of technical supervisors. They also aimed to build and standardize a measure of functional creativity for the managers of sports and school activities departments from the perspective of technical supervisors, as well as to identify the degree of administrative strength and functional creativity among the managers of sports and school activities departments from the perspective of technical supervisors. The researchers used the descriptive method along with a survey method to identify the technical supervisors in sports activities (Directorates of Sports Activities in Baghdad). They defined the research population as the technical supervisors in sports activities from (the Directorates of Sports Activities in Baghdad), using obtained statistics. There are (180) supervisors distributed across (6) directorates in the province of Baghdad. The construction sample consisted of (180) supervisors, representing (80%) of the original population. The researchers recommended utilizing the administrative strength scale, which they constructed and applied to reveal the administrative strength of the directors of the sports and school activities departments. As well as, they suggested using the functional creativity scale, which they constructed and implemented to uncover the functional creativity of the directors of the sports and school activities departments
