  • Why Has Soccer Not Become the Code of Football in Australia
    Deakin Research Online Deakin University’s institutional research repository DDeakin Research Online Research Online This is the authors final peer reviewed version of the item published as: Hay, Roy 2006-04, Our wicked foreign game : why has association football (Soccer) not became the main code of football in Australia?, Soccer and society, vol. 7, no. 2-3, pp. 165-186. Copyright : 2006, Taylor & Francis ..‘Our wicked foreign game’: Why has Association Football (soccer) not become the main code of football in Australia?∗ Roy Hay Sports and Editorial Services Australia Introduction Soccer, ‘our wicked foreign game’, is not the main code of football in any state in Australia, but it is probably the second in most states if measured by spectator attendance or participation.1 In Victoria, Australian rules is number one, while in New South Wales, rugby league is the dominant code. The phenomenon is not unique to Australia. None of the white dominions of the old British Empire nor the former British colony the United States has soccer as its main code, with the exception of South Africa where the non-white population has taken up Association Football.2 In most of these countries soccer is characterised as a migrants’ game, even though many of the migrants playing or watching the game are of second or later generations. Explanations for the secondary position of soccer in Australia ought therefore to be compared with those for these other countries, and if we seek a comprehensive explanation of this phenomenon then the Australian story ought not to vary too much from those applied to the others, unless it can be clearly shown that Australian experience and conditions were indeed different.3 This article concentrates on the domestic experience in Australia, with a view to introducing and outlining some of the issues which might be drawn into an effective international comparison.

  • Funding Sport Fairly an Income-Contingent Loans Scheme for Elite Sports Training
    THE AUSTRALIA INSTITUTE Funding Sport Fairly An income-contingent loans scheme for elite sports training Background Australian taxpayers spent more than $97 million on elite sportspeople in 2001-2002 (ASC 2002). A significant proportion of this expenditure went on providing Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) ‘scholarships’ to 673 athletes and grants to national sporting bodies for their elite athlete programs (ASC 2002). Major expenses associated with assistance to elite sportspeople include the provision of training facilities (such as swimming pools and playing fields), coaching, medical advice and international and domestic travel costs associated with competition. While there is no doubt that the Commonwealth Government has a role to play in encouraging excellence in all fields of human endeavour, be they sporting, educational or artistic, there is an important equity issue associated with providing taxpayer funded training to individuals who go on to earn millions of dollars per year from their sporting prowess. As shown in Table 1, sportspeople who make it to the top of some sports earn extremely high incomes. For some, sporting success while young can also be translated into high incomes in later life either through sponsorship, public speaking or commentary positions. Many would question the fairness of a system that delivers huge incomes to a handful of elite sporting stars; but that is how the sports market works. However, there are good grounds for taking action to recover some of the publicly funded costs of training sportspeople who go on to earn very high incomes. In order to address this issue it is proposed that the Government introduce a HECS- type scheme whereby those sportspeople who go on to earn high incomes would be required to repay the costs incurred in the public provision of their training and development.

  • Jon Pillemer Farewelled in Fitting Style
    This week, the Hakoah Feds family pay tribute to Jon Pillemer, whilst the Youth battled out a double-header against Schofields Scorpions and Mt. Druitt Rangers. We also get the next teammates edition from First Grade Scout Dino. Jon Pillemer Farewelled in Fitting Style Not many, if any, have given more to the Hakoah football club than Jon Pillemer. Over his 25-year career, he devoted a decade to the Hakoah cause, and was an inspiration both on and off the pitch. Sadly, Pillemer was forced to call time on his illustrious career through a hip injury suffered at the beginning of this season. Prior to that, he had still been training pre-season with the Hakoah Feds First Grade, a side that is yet to drop a point in the league. So on Sunday at the Hensley fortress, where Pillemer helped Hakoah win their first Grand Final in six years last season, hundreds flocked to farewell Pillemer in his testimonial match. The game was held between the teammates and legends of Maccabi-Hakoah, up against a host of former Socceroos and National League players that had played with Pillemer over the years. The team sheets looked as follows: Maccabi Hakoah All-Stars 1 Andrew Prentice 1 Jose Bello Amigo 2 Russel Pillemer 2 Alex Tobin (c) 3 Hayden Foxe 3 Craig Sharpley 4 Gareth Martin 4 Eric Hristodoulou 5 Joe Vrkic 5 Craig Foster 6 Marc Robertson 6 Steve Karavatakis 7 Jonny Pillemer (c) 7 Jon Bonovoglia 8 Brad Maloney 8 David Zdrilic 9 Michael Pillemer 9 Jon Kosmina 10 Kimon Taliadoros 10 Peter Katholos 11 Richard Johnson 11 Francis Awaritefe 12 Hadley Missell

The results demonstrate that, on average, a managerial sacking results in a post-announcement day market-adjusted share price rise of 0.3%, whilst a resignation leads to a drop in share price of 1% that continues for a trading month thereafter, cumulating in a negative abnormal return of over 8% from a trading day before the event.
