  • Case Hawkes V Cuddy [2007] EWHC 1789 (Also Known As Re Neath Rugby Ltd, Cuddy V Hawkes)
    The long reach of section 216 (prohibited names) Technical Bulletin No: 136 Case Hawkes v Cuddy [2007] EWHC 1789 (also known as Re Neath Rugby Ltd, Cuddy v Hawkes) Synopsis The decision relates to the ownership and management by two successive companies which ran “Neath”, a leading rugby club in Wales: (a) Gowerpark Ltd, which had been known as Neath RFC (Old Neath); and (b) Neath Rugby Ltd, also known as Neath RFC or Neath Rugby (New Neath). C had been a director of Old Neath. Upon the liquidation of Old Neath, the name “Neath” became a prohibited name under s.216(3) in relation to C – i.e. it prevented him from becoming a director of New Neath - and so he installed his wife as his nominee. The other director/shareholder was Mr Hawkes (H). An unfair prejudice (i.e. contributory’s) petition was presented under s.459 CA 1985 by H against C and Mrs C in respect of the affairs of: (i) New Neath; and (ii) Neath-Swansea Ospreys Ltd (Ospreys), a company managing the Welsh regional side now known as the Ospreys (of which New Neath owns 50%). Topics covered: Phoenix provisions The Facts The facts arose in the context of the re-organisation of Welsh rugby. In 1995/6, when Welsh rugby turned professional, the Welsh Rugby Union (“WRU”) established Old Neath to run Neath RFC and appointed C as one of its directors. Although the team performed well on the field, Old Neath ran into financial difficulties. The WRU then re-organised Welsh rugby for the 2003/04 season, forming regional sides.

  • Analysing Rugby Game Attendance at Selected Smaller Unions in South Africa
    Analysing rugby game attendance at selected smaller unions in South Africa by PAUL HEYNS 12527521 B.Com (Hons), NGOS Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Business Administration at the Potchefstroom Business School of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof. R.A. Lotriet November 2012 Potchefstroom ABSTRACT Rugby union is being viewed and played by millions of people across the world. It is one of the fastest growing sport codes internationally and with more countries emerging and playing international and national games, the supporter attendance is crucial to the game. The rugby industry is mostly formal, with an international body controlling the sport globally and a governing body in each country to regulate the sport in terms of rules and regulations. These bodies must adhere to the international body’s vision and mission to grow the sport and to steer it in the correct direction. This study focuses on rugby game attendance of selected smaller unions in South Africa. Valuable information was gathered describing the socio- economic profile and various preferences and habits of supporters attending rugby games. This information forms the basis for future studies to honour the people that support their unions when playing rugby nationally or internationally. The research was conducted through interviews with influential administrators within the rugby environment and questionnaires that were distributed among supporters that attended a Leopard and Puma game. The main conclusions during the study were the failure to attract supporters to the Leopards and the Pumas local matches. The supporters list various reasons for poor supporter attendances namely: a lack of marketing, no entertainment, the quality of the teams that are competing, and the time-slots in which the matches take place.
