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 offer a diverse range of opportunities to play, train and develop and now we are excited to bring deaf and disabled women and girls into the netball family. Netball cannot be described as a ‘traditional disability sport’. It has a limited history with minimal numbers of players both in this country and around the world. However, in England, there are over 1.5 million deaf and disabled women and girls under the age of 50. These figures speak to the incredible opportunity we have at England Netball. This strategy is an exciting glimpse into our future and signals the intent and ambition that we have at England Netball to understand, engage, maximise and empower deaf and disabled women and girls across England. Fran Fran Connolly, CEO 1 million women and girls played netball at some point last year making netball the number one team sport played by females in England. In contrast to that only 448 deaf and disabled people took part in an England Netball session last year. This strategy has been published following extensive research and development pulling on an evidence base from across all sport.

A Brief History of Netball and Our Tactix Legacy
A Brief History of Netball and our Tactix Legacy What is Netball? “A new game for girls, about which a good deal will probably be heard in the course of the ensuing summer, is basket-ball. It has already swept the United States, completely eclipsing lawn tennis, and effectually nipping in the bud the threatened revival of croquet….The chief beauty of the game is its simplicity, and the fact that no expensive apparatus is required. Wherever two old baskets, a couple of clothes props, and a ball, are there can it be played.” (Otago Witness, 6 May 1897) The Game The game of netball is derived from the early development of basketball in the USA. The origin of basketball is traditionally credited to James Naismith, a 30-year-old Canadian immigrant to the USA, who in 1891, invented an indoor game for young men at the School for Christian Workers (later the YMCA) in Springfield, Massachusetts. The first games of what's now netball were played on a paddock between nine-a-side teams. The rules allowed three bounces, and throws from one end of the field to the other. Baskets were used for goals and after each goal, the ball was tipped out to restart play. Netball was first played in the UK in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg's College. In the first half of the 20th century, Netball's popularity continued to grow, with the game being played in many British Commonwealth countries. There were no standard rules at that time with both nine-a-side and five- a-side versions of the game.

THE ASSOCIATION OF TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS WITH THE PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES OF ELITE FEMALE NETBALL PLAYERS Christy Mullender 1585170 A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Witwatersrand, in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Medicine by Research. Johannesburg, June 2018 1 DECLARATION I, Christy Mullender, declare that this dissertation is my own, unaided work. It is being submitted for the degree of Master of Science in Medicine in the field of Sport and Exercise Science at the University of Witwatersrand. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination at any other University. ______________________________ (Signature of candidate) 20th day of June 2018 in Bedfordview. i ABSTRACT Background Research shows in a laboratory-type setting that high heart rates can influence technical performance. High physical exertion levels in athletes have been shown to influence technical performance negatively. Aim The aim of this study was to investigate if an association between technical and tactical performance indicators existed with the physiological responses of elite female netball players in a competitive match setting. The following objectives were addressed: 1) Record the duration of possession, number of passes and location of centre pass movements, 2) Compare heart rates of all the players involved in the movements which ended in points scored or possession lost 3) Compare the heart rate of the player, at the specific time the ball was released from when a goal was scored or a possession was lost. Methods Twenty-nine (n=29) female netball participants (age = 24 ±4.1 years) competed in the Netball World Youth Cup and a national selection camp.
