  • New Zealand Professional Clubs – Summary Report the Following Summary Is Derived from the New Zealand Professional Clubs Report Finalised on 17 April 2020
    New Zealand Professional Clubs – Summary Report The following summary is derived from the New Zealand Professional Clubs Report finalised on 17 April 2020 1. Background The Covid-19 outbreak and the New Zealand Government’s subsequent response is profoundly impacting New Zealand’s economy. The closing of international borders, restrictions on public gatherings and the Level 4 Lockdown currently prohibits – explicitly or otherwise – all sport, including all the Professional Leagues and competitions that New Zealand’s Professional Clubs (PCs) participate in. Accordingly, the present environment is deeply affecting both the community and business levels of sport. Virtually all revenue to PCs, leagues, and, in some cases, National Sports Organisations (NSOs), has disappeared or reduced significantly, while many of their costs are locked in, particularly through athlete and other talent contracts. The sustainability of PCs is at immediate and very serious risk. This report, and its proposed solutions, need to be considered in the context of a wider piece of work being led by Sport New Zealand concerning the recovery of the broader sport, active recreation and play system, as well as the multitude of issues the Government and country face, both in confronting Covid-19 and in mounting New Zealand’s recovery. a. Social & Economic Wellbeing Impact of Professional Sport Previous Sport New Zealand research states that professional sport delivers a total positive impact to wellbeing equivalent to a $1,008 increase to annual personal income. The research further explains that the contribution of professional sport to individual wellbeing occurs via two main factors: 1) attendance of a professional event, and 2) the deriving of satisfaction from watching, listening to, discussing and reading about professional sports events.
