Hiya Suzy,

Good question. There's heaps of commercial options and I'd wager there's a
range of specialst options specifically for sporting events, although
that's a little out of my area. Anyone who's met me, knows I'm not terribly
sporty!

Two vanilla setups that are very widely used are:

http://buddypress.org
http://drupal.org and http://commons.acquia.com

We use a Drupal setup at Chinwag, although not all of the community
features are enabled, it's also used by huge events like SXSW to manage
their programme/community. There's a hefty bit of customisation involved.

Feel free to drop me a line if you want to chat this through offline.
