Leisure Studies (UNSW) M.A. (UNSW) Department of Tourism, Leisure, Hotel and Sport Management Griffith Business School Griffith University Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2010 i ABSTRACT Organising the Olympic Games is a highly complex management task that involves many individuals and stakeholder groups. In 2000, Australia’s largest city, Sydney, staged the Summer Olympic Games. The agency given primary responsibility for the staging of these Games was the Sydney Organising Committee for the Olympic Games (SOCOG). Two additional organisations also played a significant role in the organisation of the Sydney Games. These two organisations were the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) and the New South Wales (NSW) Government. This doctoral research investigated the part played by the AOC, as the host national Olympic committee (NOC), in the organisation of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. The study examined the AOC’s involvement in the establishment of an independent Olympic agency that was called the SOCOG Sports Commission (SSC). The research explored the impact of the SSC on the organisation and management of the SOCOG Sport Program at the Sydney Games, which was managed by a SOCOG functional area known as the SOCOG Sport Program.

    Food and Beverage Company Sponsorship of Children’s Sport: Publicity or Philanthropy? Bridget Kelly This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Discipline of Public Health, Sydney Medical School The University of Sydney July 2012 ABSTRACT While the causes of obesity are complex and many, children’s exposure to food marketing affects the food and drinks that children prefer, request, purchase and consume. Sport sponsorship is a significant form of marketing that, when directed at children’s activities, allows brands to be embedded within children’s experiences of entertainment and socialisation. The research outlined in this thesis aimed to determine the scope of unhealthy food and beverage sponsorship of children’s sport in New South Wales (NSW), Australia; the effect of this sponsorship on children; and potential solutions to create healthier sponsorship. Six studies were conducted: i) a telephone survey with officials from randomly sampled sports clubs in NSW (n = 108); and ii) a website analysis of peak sporting organisations (n = 55) to determine sponsorship arrangements; iii) an analysis of children’s sport participation from the Exercise, Recreation and Sport Survey 2009/10, to estimate sponsorship exposure; iv) interviews at clubs with parents (n = 200), children (n = 103) and officials (n = 40); and v) a representative telephone survey of parents (n = 825) and online survey of children (n = 243) across NSW, to determine attitudes to sponsorship, and vi) a Delphi survey of experts (n = 18) in health promotion and sport explored standards for health promoting sports clubs. A large number of sponsors were identified at sports clubs and for peak sporting organisations, with 9% to 17% being food or beverage companies.
