ANSWER: On 19 July 2020, the Honourable Annastacia Palaszczuk MP, Premier and Minister for Trade, extended the Year of Indigenous Tourism to 2021 due to the impacts of COVID-19. The Palaszczuk Government is investing $10 million over two years for Indigenous tourism development and growth as part of the Year of Indigenous Tourism.

Key initiatives of the Year of Indigenous Tourism include: • $7 million Growing Indigenous Tourism in Queensland Fund • Our Country Tourism Business Development Service • Advance Queensland One Business program, for Indigenous business innovators and entrepreneurs • Indigenous experience, marketing, festivals and events • The scoping of the potential to establish a peak Indigenous tourism body.

  • RUGBY AUSTRALIA 'SIZE for AGE' GUIDELINES Physical
    RUGBY AUSTRALIA ‘SIZE FOR AGE’ GUIDELINES Physical Development Guidelines for Australian Age Grade Rugby PURPOSE The purpose of these guidelines is to provide a framework for the application of the Age Grade Dispensation Procedure in line with the Rugby Australia Participation Policy and the Rugby Australia Safety Policy. BACKGROUND The World Rugby Weight Consideration Guidelines state that that the current method of separating youth players into gradings based on age is generally the most effective means of performing what can be a complex task. This involves determining salient, complex factors relating to youth participation in Rugby (for example, physical, maturational, fitness, cognitive and psychosocial factors) when finding a solution to grading the small number of age grade players who do not fit within the ‘general rule of age’ and whose development status carries a risk to either the player or other child participants. In 2017 Rugby Australia introduced new policies and procedures for participation in Rugby aimed at creating inclusion to the fullest extent possible so long as it is safe. This included the development of the Rugby Australia Age Grade Dispensation Procedure. The starting point for activating the procedure is the physical development of the player, relative to their eligible age grades. Research commissioned by Rugby Australia has determined that no single metric is an indicator of the relative physical development of a player’s on field performance. However, by assessing a number of key factors, powerful insight can be gained into the development of age grade players. The research has determined that the physical size of a player relative to population norms is an appropriate starting point for an individual assessment process that will include: • The relative maturity of the player; • The speed, strength, power and endurance of the player; and • An assessment by an Independent Qualified Assessing Coach ideally undertaken in training and match conditions.

  • Rugby, Media and the Americans!
    RUGBY, MEDIA AND THE AMERICANS! THE IMPACT ON AUSTRALIAN RUGBY INTRODUCTION For most of its history, rugby was a strictly amateur football code, and the sport's administrators frequently imposed bans and restrictions on players who they viewed as professional. It was not until 1995 that rugby union was declared an "open" game, and thus professionalism was sanctioned by the code's governing body,’ World Rugby’.1 To some, this represented an undesirable and problematic challenge to the status quo in which the traditions of the game would be eroded and benefits would accrue only to a small coterie of talented players. To many others the change was inevitable and overdue. In various countries different combinations of veiled professionalism or officially condoned shamateurism that lurked behind the amateur facade throughout the twentieth century. For instance, it was well known amongst New Zealand rugby players, or at least this author, that their fellow Auckland provincial rugby representatives were remunerated handsomely behind closed doors through the late 1980’s and early 1990’s. This effectively allowed them to train as semi professionals that, it could be argued, aided the run of success Auckland enjoyed through the same period as the National Provincial Champions (NPC). The statistics reflect that in 61 challenges in the period from 1985 to 1993, Auckland were undefeated. The team itself was full of All Blacks that won six titles in the 1990s. Playing for Auckland could be considered as close as it got to being a full time professional in this era.2 An alternative for frustrated rugby players was either to swap 1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_football 2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auckland_rugby_union_team codes and join the rugby league profession either in Australia or Europe or play rugby in another country, again being paid ‘under the table’.

  • The Sydney Cricket Ground: Sport and the Australian Identity
    The Sydney Cricket Ground: Sport and the Australian Identity Nathan Saad Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of Technology Sydney This paper explores the interrelationship between sport and culture in Australia and seeks to determine the extent to which sport contributes to the overall Australian identity. It uses the Syndey Cricket Ground (SCG) as a case study to demonstrate the ways in which traditional and postmodern discourses influence one’s conception of Australian identity and the role of sport in fostering identity. Stoddart (1988) for instance emphasises the utility of sports such as cricket as a vehicle through which traditional British values were inculcated into Australian society. The popularity of cricket in Australia constitutes perhaps what Markovits and Hellerman (2001) coin a “hegemonic sports culture,” and thus represents an influential component of Australian culture. However, the postmodern discourse undermines the extent to which Australian identity is based on British heritage. Gelber (2010) purports that contemporary Australian society is far less influenced by British traditions as it was prior to WWII. The influence of immigration in Australia, and the global ascendency of Asia in recent years have led to a shift in national identity, which is reflected in sport. Edwards (2009) and McNeill (2008) provide evidence that traditional constructions of Australian sport minimise the cultural significance of indigenous athletes and customs in shaping national identity. Ultimately this paper argues that the role of sport in defining Australia’s identity is relative to the discourse employed in constructing it. Introduction The influence of sport in contemporary Australian life and culture seems to eclipse mere popularity.
