In almost all sport- based youth development programs, the desired sport is football and occasionally rugby. Developing the youth is crucial for the development of a nation and the United Nations has highlighted the progress sport has had as a development tool over the past 20 years. South Africa has recently received international acclaim by becoming the focal point of the National Basketball Associations (NBA) presence in Africa by hosting the last three NBA Africa games. South Africa’s Eastern Cape province was the home of elite basketball in the early eighties and is no stranger to the sport of basketball. The study aimed to explore the possibility of using basketball as a tool for youth development in Nelson Mandela Bay in the Eastern Cape. The study employed a mixed methods research approach that was explorative, descriptive and contextual in design. The empirical data was collected by means of a questionnaire distributed to target basketball players in the Nelson Mandela Bay area. While the data analysis and literature favoured basketball as a suitable tool to be used in sport-based youth development programs, there were limitations with respect to the number of female participants in the study. It was recommended that further research be considered within this field of study and on a wider scale, in an effort to expand the knowledge base on youth development through basketball across South Africa. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION BY STUDENT ............................................................................................. i PERMISSION TO SUBMIT

  • The Economic and Legal Aspects of Transfers of Players
    KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players The Economic and Legal Aspects of Transfers of Players JANUARY 2013 KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Transfer of Players in Sport Professional transfers are regulated by a complex set of regulations established by sports governing bodies. Rules are subject to a large degree of standardisation at international level through international sports institutions such as FIFA for football and FIBA for basketball. The justification for international standardisation stems from the ambition to make competition rules universal in order to promote international sporting exchanges. The extensive autonomy granted to sporting bodies for the self-regulation of their activities is a fundamental characteristic of sport as compared to other economic and social activities. The transfer environment is subject to different layers of rules and regulations. The study aims to document the different layers of rules and to consider their interactions. Transfer rules in sport are a derogation from normal employment practices in the following ways: i) They limit the freedom of players to move from one employer to another and set restrictive conditions for such moves. Contracts may be terminated by either party without consequences (such as sporting sanctions) only if justified by “just cause”1; ii) They establish a system of transfer fees between clubs in order to prevent a total ban on players’ mobility.

  • The Anthropometric and Fitness Characteristics of South African Female Basketball Players
    THE ANTHROPOMETRIC AND FITNESS CHARACTERISTICS OF SOUTH AFRICAN FEMALE BASKETBALL PLAYERS By Lungile Blessed Mtsweni (Student number: 210240539) Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Technology: Sport Management In the Faculty of Business and Management Sciences at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology Supervisor: Dr S. Taliep Co-supervisor: Dr S. West Mowbray Campus November 2015 DECLARATION I, Lungile Blessed Mtsweni, declare that the contents of this thesis represent my own unaided work, and that the thesis has not previously been submitted for academic examination towards any qualification. Furthermore, it represents my own opinions and not necessarily those of the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. 5/11/ 2015 Signed Date ABSTRACT Background Basketball in South Africa (SA) is viewed as a secondary and social sport, even at national level (Radovic, 2010). The South African female national basketball team is ranked 70 out of 73 countries globally (FIBA, 2014a). There are many possible reasons for the poor success of the team; one contributing factor could be their anthropometric and fitness characteristics. To date, there have been no published research studies investigating the anthropometric and fitness characteristics of female basketball players in SA. The primary aim of this study was to examine the anthropometric and fitness characteristics of SA female basketball players, in three groups: players in university, provincial leagues and those in the national squad. The secondary aim was to investigate the structures in place for managing and monitoring the strength and conditioning of these players. This research study is the first to examine and compare anthropometric and fitness characteristics of female basketball players at different playing levels in SA.

  • Sport and Recreation South Africa (SRSA) Is the National Government Department Responsible for Sport in South Africa
    Sport and Recreation South Africa (SRSA) is the national government department responsible for sport in South Africa. Aligned with its vision of creating An Active and Winning Nation, its primary focuses are providing opportunities for all South Africans to participate in sport; managing the regulatory framework thereof and providing funding for different codes of sport. The department transforms the delivery of sport and recreation by ensuring equitable access, development and excellence at all levels of participation, thereby improving social cohesion, nation-building and the quality of life of all South Africans. The SRSA is established in terms of the Public Service Act of 1994. Its legal mandate is derived from the National Sport and Recreation Amendment Act, 2007 (Act 18 of 2007), which requires it to oversee the development and management of sport and recreation in South Africa. The Act provides the framework for relationships between the department and its external clients. This includes the SRSA’s partnership with the South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC). The partnership is key to improving South Africa’s international ranking in selected sports. The Act also ensures that sport and physical education contribute to social cohesion by legislating on sports participation and sports infrastructure. Aligned with the SRSA’s vision of an active and winning nation, the department primarily focuses on providing opportunities for all South Africans to participate in sport; manages the regulatory framework; and provides funding for different sporting codes. The SRSA aims to maximise access, development and excellence at all levels of participation in sport and recreation to improve the quality of life for all South Africans.

  • South Africa Yearbook 2013/2014 Sport and Recreation
    SOUTH AFRICA YEARBOOK 2013/14 South African sportsmen and women excelled on the world stage in 2013/14. The country’s Sport and national rugby and football teams both boosted their world rankings over the course of the year, while the Proteas remained the undisputed number one test cricket team. Perhaps the biggest upset in football in 2013 Recreation occurred at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on 19 November when Bafana Bafana, ranked 61st in the world, defeated world and European champions Spain by one goal to nil. It was a welcome boost for a team which had missed out on qualifying for the 2014 FIFA World Cup hosted by Brazil. Sport and Recreation South Africa (SRSA) The SRSA is the national department responsible for sport in the country. Aligned with its vision of an active and winning nation, it primarily focuses on providing opportunities for all South Africans to participate in sport; manages the regulatory framework; and provides funding for different sporting codes. The right to play and to participate in sport has been embodied in United Nations (UN) instruments such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women. It is recognised as a right, which all governments should make available to their people. In line with the constitutional imperatives, the SRSA has been assigned the powers and functions to develop and implement national policies and programmes regarding sport and recreation in the country. The SRSA aims to maximise access, development and excellence at all levels of participation in sport and recreation to improve social cohesion, nation-building and the quality of life of all South Africans.

  • Helping the Game to Grow Day One of the FIBA World Congress Saw an Amended Version of FIBA’S Statutes Approved Unanimously
    istanbul - Day tHREE - 5 SeptEmber 2010 Walk the talk panels preview lindsay gaze web record vidal reveals his all you need to know The man who GAme lovers flock nightmare moment ahead of today’s travelled “coach” to fiba world Page 2 major sessions Page 9 championship site Page 4 Page 12 Helping the game to grow Day One of the Fiba World Congress saw an amended version of Fiba’s statutes approved unanimously. One of the key changes to the statutes is the new mid-term Congress. While terms of office will remain the same – a four-year cycle – this mid-term Congress is similar to the regular one in every other way. Fiba secretary General and international Olympic Committee (iOC) member patrick baumann explained the thinking behind the new Congress cycle. “We took a decision some years back to strive for more efficient and better organised member federations. it started with giving them a manual outlining the key aspects for successful governance of their institutions,” he said. “the will and the work were there, but we realised that things were not moving as fast as they could. the contact with the federations and the interaction between them were still insufficient.” baumann points out that basketball is now progressing much faster than in the past. “things happen very rapidly so you need to be there to act and take decisions. With the past system if you missed one Congress, you were out for eight years. it made it virtually impossible to acquire and exchange the tools and “We took a decision know-how that is so crucial.” the idea is that with a some years back shorter period between Congresses, members will be to strive for more more aware of what is being discussed, will participate efficient and better in the debate and return organised member home to share the acquired knowledge.

  • Nba Global Games” a África
    FACULTAD DE CIENCIAS ECONÓMICAS Y EMPRESARIALES (ICADE) PLAN ESTRATÉGICO DE NEGOCIOS PARA LA INTERNACIONALIZACIÓN DEL EVENTO DEPORTIVO “NBA GLOBAL GAMES” A ÁFRICA Autor: Rachel Taback Director: Alfonso Pedro Fernández del Hoyo Madrid Marzo 2014 I. Resumen Los NBA Global Games tienen como objetivo expandir el deporte de baloncesto por el mundo entero. El evento deportivo ya ha tenido lugar en cinco de los siete continentes del mundo, con la excepción de África y Australia. África, como un continente en fuerte desarrollo y crecimiento económico presenta una oportunidad única para optimizar un acontecimiento de esta magnitud. Después de analizar los tres mercados africanos más desarrollados, condición absolutamente necesaria para su implantación, es evidente que la urbe de Johannesburgo en Sudáfrica presenta la mejor oportunidad, no sólo por sus datos económicos sino, también, por su estabilidad política e interés en el baloncesto. Además, es un país con una historia deportiva rica, que dispone de instalaciones y una cultura adecuada que apoya la asistencia a este tipo de acontecimientos. Si bien el mercado sudafricano parece listo para ser el anfitrión de un evento de esta índole, es importante seguir un Plan Estratégico de Negocios con todos los pasos necesarios para asegurar su éxito. Por lo tanto, la NBA debe articular una estrategia que incluya una forma de entrada y un plan de marketing preliminar bien diseñado e implantado en colaboración con FIBA África que lo garanticen. Ambas organizaciones se complementan perfectamente para cooperar en un evento del calibre los NBA Global Games. La coordinación entre las dos empresas no resultará en una pérdida de control para la NBA sino en beneficios mutuos que, para el caso de la NBA, será un aumento en el conocimiento del mercado local.
