  • Transforming the Springboks: Re-Imagining the South African Nation Through Sport
    This paper is a post-print of an article published in Social Dynamics 29:1 (2003): 27-48. The definitive version is available at: http://www.africanstudies.uct.ac.za/downloads/29_1farquharson.zip Transforming the Springboks: Re-imagining the South African Nation through Sport 1 Karen Farquharson and Timothy Marjoribanks Abstract Nation-building occurs not only through the creation of formal institutions, but also through struggles in cultural and symbolic contexts. In apartheid South Africa, the rugby union Springboks both symbolised and institutionalised a racially based form of ‘bounded citizenship’. In post-apartheid South Africa, the Springboks have emerged as a contested and significant site in the attempt to build a non-racial nation through reconciliation. To explore these contests, we undertook a qualitative thematic analysis of newspaper discourses around the Springboks, reconciliation and nation-building in the contexts of the 1995 and 1999 Rugby World Cups. Our research suggests, first, that the Springboks have been re-imagined in newspaper discourses as a symbol of the non-racial nation-building process in South Africa, especially in ‘media events’ such as the World Cup. Second, we find that there are significant limitations in translating this symbolism into institutionalised practice, as exemplified by newspaper debates over the place of ‘merit’ in international team selection processes. We conclude that the media framing of the role of the Springboks in nation-building indicates that unless the re-imagination of the Springboks is accompanied by a transformation in who is selected to represent the team, and symbolically the nation, the Springboks’ contribution to South African nation-building will be over.

  • Captaincy and Leadership in Rugby Union
    Captaincy and Leadership in Rugby Union HELP, Second Year List of contents 1. Introduction 2. The Four Captains 3. The Views of The Captains 4. Comparing and Contrasting the Captain’s Views 5. Interim Conclusions: Part One 6. Quali - Quantitative Survey 7. Interim Conclusions: Part Two 8. Leadership in Life 9. Overall Conclusions and Learnings 10. What Have I Learned? 11. Appendices 1. Introduction In this project, I am going to either prove or disprove two hypotheses: • firstly, that the position of a rugby player will make a difference to what they think a great captain is; and • secondly, that for a captain to be great, they do not have to be the best in their position. I will prove or disprove these hypotheses through the following research: • conducting semi-quantitative surveys • reading and analysing 4 great rugby captains’ autobiographies (qualitative research) and their views on leadership and captaincy • and finally wider online research. Rugby is a sport and subject that I am very passionate about, and I aspire to play at the highest level. Currently I play for Hampton U13 Bs and my club (Twickenham) first team. I find captaincy interesting as I think it takes great skill and certain characteristics to be a good captain let alone a country-leading world-famous great captain. My personal experiences of rugby captaincy have been periodically with my school team and regularly for my club. My personal view of rugby captaincy based on my experiences is that you need to be the hardest-working player on the pitch at all times – you may not be the most skilled, but you can be the hardest-working, and respect from your team- mates and from your coaches comes from this work ethic.

  • Die Vestiging Van Die Noord-Transvaler Metro As Plaaslike Koerant, 1993-1996 Die Vestiging Van Die Noord-Transvaler Metro As Plaaslike Koerant, 1993-1996
    D IN VOELING MET DIE GEMEENSKAP Die vestiging van die Noord-Transvaler Metro as plaaslike koerant, 1993-1996 Die vestiging van die Noord-Transvaler Metro as plaaslike koerant, 1993-1996 Elvira Bradley 9201807 Verhandeling voorgele ter gedeeltelike vervulling van die vereistes vir die graad MA (Bedryfskommunikasie) Departement Kommunikasie aan die Potchefstroomse Universiteit vir Christelike Hoer Onderwys Studieleier: Dr JD Froneman November 1997 Summary People want to know what happens in their community. This need for information is gratified by newspapers. The editorial staff of a local newspaper are aware of this and they create a news agenda to satisfy these needs. The creation of an Afrikaans local weekly paper, Noord-Transvaler Metro, is the topic of this study. By studying the front-page agenda of Metro, it can be determined what the editorial staff did to attract people to read Metro and thus establish it. Interviews were held with people involved in the creation of Metro and documents studied to determine the history of Metro, which was to a certain extent, a replacement for the daily Transvaler. The agenda-setting theory and the needs and gratification theory were used in this study as an explanation for the relationship between what people want in a local paper and what Metro put on its front page to become viable. A qualitative data-analysis shows that Metro's front-page agenda mainly focused on the different municipalities in its distribution area (Greater Pretoria), crime and sport. Metro's front-page agenda was evaluated in terms of criteria set for local newspapers in various publications.

  • Rugby Gives You Values: They Aren’T Written but They Are for Life’ Interview with Felipe Contepomi
    Irish Migration Studies in Latin America ‘Rugby gives you values: they aren’t written but they are for life’ Interview with Felipe Contepomi By Edmundo Murray Talking to Felipe Contepomi evokes exciting moments in our sporting lives, whether as players or supporters. It is also a way to learn, in a peculiar way, about playing professional rugby with the enthusiasm of an amateur. Born in Buenos Aires, Contepomi went to study at Cardenal Newman School, run by the Irish Christian Brothers, in the outskirts of the city. He started playing rugby at the school, and was quickly picked for the junior selections in Buenos Aires and later at the national level. He has played more than fifty games with The Pumas. His twin brother Manuel is also a player in the national team. A star of the Leinster Rugby team in Ireland, Felipe is also a medical doctor, having graduated from the Royal College of Surgeons. He lives in Dublin with his wife Paula and their daughter Catalina. Edmundo Murray (EM): What influence has your Irish school education had on your life and on your rugby-playing? Felipe Contepomi (FP): [Cardenal] Newman was and still is important in my life. It was my second home, and had a great effect on my educational and life values, and of course on my rugby-playing. Today when you speak of my career, the first milestone is always el Newman. It is an Irish school with high standards, and I was conscious of the Irish character of the school from the beginning, for instance during the Irish tournaments.
