Short History of the Associated Catholic Colleges Origins The Association, known as the Associated Catholic Colleges of Melbourne, grew out of earlier organisations that provided boys' colleges with formal and informal meetings for inter-College sport competitions. The earliest recorded mention of such meetings dates back to 1898 when CBC St Kilda met Wesley College and Parade encountered Melbourne Grammar in their annual football and cricket matches. Competition among Catholic Colleges grew out of the St Patrick's Day Sports. It is hard to establish which came first, the St Patrick's Day Procession or the St Patrick's Day Sports. Around 1906 the Procession was firmly established as an important official function and the custom was to have a gymkhana picnic sports day at its completion. The competition, open to all Catholic Colleges, country as well as metropolitan, was limited to athletics. All trophies, including the Archbishop's Shield, were provided by the Archbishop of Melbourne. In the early years of the century an organisation called the Secondary Colleges Competition included eight teams for football and cricket from the following Catholic and non-Catholic colleges: C.B.C North Melbourne, CBC St Kilda, St Vincent's College South Melbourne, Carlton College, Caulfield Grammar, Brighton Grammar, Assumption College Kilmore, and an unknown College, possibly Stotts Business College. This association ended in 1909. To replace the Secondary Colleges Competition a group of six Brothers' Colleges established the Secondary Teams Association on April 2, 1909, and started competing in 1910. The names of these Colleges remain unknown. At the time football and cricket were the only sports offered. It was not until 1914 that regular matches (fixtures) were drawn up. Athletics was still provided by the St Patrick's Day sports until the early 1930s. The Secondary Teams Association later emerged as the Metropolitan Catholic Colleges. It offered competition in football, cricket, and swimming. Thus was formed an association of Catholic boys' colleges in the city of Melbourne as distinct from a Catholic country sporting organisation. First Period: Establishment… 1951-1956 The Associated Catholic Colleges came into being in June, 1948. The founding members were seven Brothers' Colleges of Melbourne: CBC Parade, CBC St Kilda, CBC North Melbourne, CBC Essendon, CBC Toorak, De La Salle Malvern and St Bede's Mentone. The first president, Br. Peter, Principal of De La Salle College Malvern, presented the Premiership Cup for football to Parade College, the winner of the first official ACC competition. The new association, restricted to city and suburban Catholic colleges, proposed to offer its members cultural and sporting activities. It also provided Principals with an opportunity to discuss matters affecting the affiliated colleges. Cultural activities among ACC Colleges were never really developed. The sporting activities, however, from the original football, cricket and swimming, came to include athletics, cross-country, hockey, soccer, tennis and basketball. From time to time other sports, such as handball, have been played. The general management of the association is placed in the hands of the Principals who meet at least three times a year. The practical organisation of ACC sport competitions is the responsibility of the Sporting Activities Committee, which groups the Sports Co-ordinators of the member colleges under 1 the chairmanship of one of the Principals. A secretary and an assistant secretary, appointed by the Principals, plan and co-ordinate the business of the Sporting Activities Committee. Second Period: Consolidation… 1957-1984 The first twelve years of the association were followed by a period of expansion. St Kevin's, Toorak left the ACC, but the following colleges increased the membership to ten: St Joseph's Marist Brothers College, North Fitzroy (1958), Salesian College, Chadstone in I966, St John's College, Braybrook (1970), and St Paul s College, Altona North (1978). In 1979 St John's College became a Junior Secondary College; Chisholm College was formed to cater for co-educational senior secondary classes. Both Colleges constituted one member in the ACC. St Joseph's College, North Fitzroy, left the association in 1978 and Salesian College, Chadstone, withdrew at the end of 1983. At the end of this second period, the Associated Catholic Colleges of Melbourne was comprised of the following eight members: Parade College Bundoora, Christian Brothers' College St Kilda, St Joseph's College North Melbourne (incorporating St Joseph’s College Pascoe Vale), De La Salle College Malvern, St Bede's College Mentone, St Bernard's College Essendon, St John's/Chisholm College Braybrook, and St Paul's College Altona North. Third Period: Diversification 1985 –1998 The late 1980s saw a further broadening of the range of sports offered as part of the ACC and the introduction of junior competitions in a number of additional sports. Chisholm College withdrew from the Association at the end of 1987, but St John's Braybrook continued to compete in the Junior and Juvenile sections of the Athletics, Swimming and Cross- country competitions and the Year 10 competitions of the other sports. St Joseph's Pascoe Vale also withdrew from the Association in 1988 and Cathedral College, East Melbourne with Trinity College, Brunswick, both feeder Colleges for CBC North Melbourne, formed a combined squad to participate in the three major carnivals. Increasing concern at the one-sided nature of many matches and competitions due to the ever- widening gap in enrolments between some Colleges led to the creation of the Division 1 and Division 2 competitions in some sports in 1990.

Management of Sport in a Global Society Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketches Summary Until almost the 1960s, sport management as an emerging academic discipline with professional orientation began to be realized when universities in the United States of America created curricula and degree programs to fill an increasing need for professional management of sport. As with any emerging professional discipline, sport management underwent several stages of evolution and growth to blossom into its current professionalized state. Generally, stages can be categorized from 1957 to 1966 (initial development), 1967 to 1987 (initial growth), 1988 to 2000 (unmonitored development), 2001 to 2007 (nurtured expansion), and 2008 to present (program assessment and professionalization) (Gillentine, 2012). The first stage is one that began with a letter written in 1957 from Walter O’Malley (Brooklyn Dodgers professional baseball team in the United States) to an aspiring educator, James Mason, about the need for a graduate program in sport management.

    WELCOME TO WHITEFRIARS Whitefriars College was established as a Catholic Secondary School for boys by the Carmelite Order of Priests and Brothers in 1961 in response to the strong demand by Catholic families for schools in which to educate their children in the tradition of their faith. As the years have passed and the College has grown, non-Catholics have also been welcomed into the Whitefriars community, but in essence Whitefriars has remained a Catholic school in the Carmelite tradition. The Carmelite tradition is traced back to the Holy Land of the late 12th century. There, a small group of Christians who had come from Europe as part of the Crusades, established themselves as a community of hermits on Mount Carmel. Whilst circumstances forced these early Carmelites to abandon both Mount Carmel and their hermit way of life, they took with them, as they eventually spread throughout the world, the spirit of both their original birthplace and the way of life associated with it. To this day, Carmelites endeavour to witness to the presence of God in people, in nature, in the Word of God and in the deepest recesses of the human spirit. Wherever they go and whatever they do, including education, Carmelites endeavour to cultivate a spirit of prayer and reflection, a commitment to justice and peace – expressed in the service of others, a respect for and a welcome of the individual and a keen sense of belonging to a community. Carmelites live ‘in allegiance to Jesus Christ’ and draw on the inspiration of Mary his mother, Elijah – the Prophet of Mount Carmel, and the many holy men and women who have followed the Carmelite ‘way’ in their lives.

    FEMALE SPORT FANDOM Insights from the growing female market Dr. Bri Newland and Dr. Ted HaydukA CONTENTS i | Executive Summary 1 | What We Know 2 | Female Fandom Matters 3 | We Need To Know Them 4 | The Players 6 | The Findings 9 | The Insights 10 | Broader Insights 12 | The Wrap Up 13 | References 14 | Appendices 20 | Acknowledgments EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Understanding female sport fandom is not only important to teams who want to increase attendance and merchandise sales, but also to brands and sponsors interested in connecting with this demographic. In the most lucrative North American professional leagues (NHL, NASCAR, MLS, NBA, MLB, and the NFL) females account for between 37% and 45% of the total market.5 Furthermore, women purchase 46% of official NFL merchandise, spend 80% of all sports apparel dollars, and control 60% of all money spent on men’s clothing.7 Clearly, being a ‘sport fan’ is no longer exclusive to men. However, sport organizations still struggle to effectively manage the female fan experience and cater to their specific behaviors, attitudes, and motivations. The purpose of this white paper is to help practitioners in the sport industry enhance their understanding of this consumer segment. To do so, we gathered and analyzed a dataset of 1796 female sport fans from all geographies, age groups, socio-economic backgrounds, and households. They are fans of a wide range of professional sports – including stalwarts like the NFL, NBA, and MLB, and niche sport organizations like MLS, eSports, and stock car racing. This group likely represents the most diverse and representative sample of female fans gathered.

    Version: 1.4 Date: Tuesday 13 August 2019 11th Executive Committee meeting Thursday 6 June and Thursday 5 September 2019 By video and teleconference World Players Association | UNI Global Union | 8-10 Avenue Reverdil | 1260 Nyon | Switzerland Tel: +41 22 365 2100 | Fax: +41 22 365 2121 | www.uniglobalunion.org | www.worldplayers.co 1/126 2/126 The Platform envisages a future world of sport that is very different to the one that exists today. It articulates the rationale for that vision and the pathway to its attainment. As its centrepiece, the Platform commits to ensuring that the human rights of everyone involved in the delivery of sport are protected, respected and upheld. It acknowledges that players are people first, and athletes second, and commits to maximising the personal development of players as well as their sporting careers. This is essential if players are to contribute not only to their sports, but to society at large. The future world of sport will therefore be underpinned by adherence to universal principles and international law. Fundamental player rights will be embedded in sport at the global level. International sporting bodies will respect human rights and join forces with sport’s many global stakeholders – including the United Nations and its agencies, governments, brands, broadcasters, NGOs, the trade union movement and, of course, the World Players Association (World Players) – to embed the human rights of all in global sport. The Platform calls for substantive, cultural and institutional change to the governance of global sport. Without it, adverse human and player rights impacts will not be prevented when they should, players will suffer avoidable harm, and be denied the opportunity to realise their potential.

    Internet sport bloggers: Who are these people and where do they come from? Edward M. Kian, Joe W. Burden, Jr., & Stephanie D. Shaw KEYWORDS: ABSTRACT NCAA wrestling; product assessment; program eliminations; marketing Little is known of Internet sport bloggers, who increasingly are becoming important cogs in sport journalism. In this phenomenology, semi-structured interviews were conducted with highly prominent sport bloggers. All were recorded, transcribed, and coded. A total of five dominant themes emerged from the data that focused on the shared experiences and learned attitudes toward Internet sport journalism. Overall, these themes showed sport bloggers were highly educated and very happy with their jobs, had a wide array of past work experiences that often had little to no relation with blogging or sport journalism, consider their jobs too varied to fall under one title, primarily work from home, and rarely attend sporting events they write about.
