Tel: (209) 946 2981 Email: [email protected] 1 The UK Netball Superleague: A Case Study of Franchising in Elite Women's Sport Abstract This paper draws on theories of franchising in examining the emergence of the UK Netball Superleague in 2005. The focus of the paper is to explore the development of an empowered franchise framework as part of England Netball's elite performance strategy and the consequences of the Superleague for player performance, team success, and commercial potential of the franchises. The findings from 22 in-depth interviews conducted between 2008-2011 with franchise personnel and sport media/marketing consultants inform the discussion. The paper further comments on the implications of the empowered franchise system for developing NGB elite performance strategies. Introduction Emerging in the late 19th century as a sport “initially designed and traditionally administered as an activity for promoting appropriate forms of femininity” (Tagg, 2008, p 410), Netball is played by more than 20 million people in over 80 nations across the globe (INFA, 2011). It is an invasion ball game predominantly played by girls and women between teams of 7 players.

We start this year with congratulations to Margaret Cassidy OBE who celebrated her 100th birthday on 27 January. Full details with photo’s to be included in our April newsletter. Looking forward to 2014, excitement is beginning to build for the Commonwealth Games which are now only six months away. If you have tickets for the Games, please let us know as it’ll be good to know who’ll be there on which dates. Joan Mills has been Janet Wrighton and I working hard ensuring the EN supporters club have the best deals available, so we should have a good turn out of supporters at the games. Yvonne and I are working on EN’s bid to the Heritage Lottery Fund for money that will allow us to employ someone to undertake the huge job of cataloguing the archives held centrally here at Netball House. We anticipate that the project will last up to three years as we are planning a couple of exhibitions and oral history element to our bid. In December, I went to Dartford in Kent to see what Joan Mills, Cathy Hickey and their team had done with Kent’s archives, are now housed within the Bergman-Osterberg museum. The day was most informative and it was good to speak to the museum curator about the storage and display of the archives.

  • Christmas Newsletter 2018 Download
    NEWSLETTERChristmas SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER 2018 Sharples Park Bolton BL1 6PQ T: 01204 301 351 thornleigh.bolton.sch.uk ChristmasChristmas NEWSLETTER l thornleigh.bolton.sch.uk HEADTEACHER’S MESSAGE Dear Parents, Carers and Friends of Thornleigh Salesian College Welcome to the ‘bumper’ edition of our school newsletter. It gets bigger each term, which reflects the many activities, experiences and opportunities our children get as an integral part of their curriculum here at Thornleigh Salesian College. I think we have had the best start that we have ever had to any academic year and we are so proud of all of our children. Our revised rewards policy means that all students are rewarded for maintaining the very high standards of behaviour and learning here, but it also means that they can gain additional points for activities they are involved in both in and out of school. Many of our children are competing at a high standard at a particular sport or are performing in local theatres. Their talent amazes me and you will see plenty of evidence of this inside. The Tanzania project this Summer was absolutely fantastic and the group of sixth formers that I took were incredible. I want to thank all the staff who gave up 4 weeks of their Summer holiday to make this possible. This year’s Mission Week was the best yet on the theme of ‘Make God’s Love Visible’ and we certainly did that with the activities and workshops that we had throughout the week. I am very, very proud of this school and I refer you to the letter that I have enclosed with this newsletter.
