  • 14 the Welsh Premier League and the 'Significant Risk' to Match
    14 The Welsh Premier League and the ‘Significant Risk’ to Match-Manipulation. Is a Specific Offence Required? Matt Hall Introduction The issue of match-fixing is one of the biggest global threats the sports industry faces (Veuthey, 2014; Kihl, Skinner & Engelberg, 2017). The link between match-fixing, and wider criminal networks and corruption is well documented. This has drawn international attention from the likes of Interpol, Europol and the European Union. There exists no uniform definition of match-fixing (Katsarova, 2016). However, the concept of ‘manipulation’ provided by the Australian Sports and Recreation Ministers Council (2011) receives endorsement by the European Parliament (ibid), that being: “Match-fixing involves the manipulation of an outcome or contingency by competitors, teams, sports agents, support staff, referees and officials and venue staff. Such conduct includes: i. the deliberate fixing of the result of a contest, or of an occurrence within the contest; ii. deliberate underperformance; iii. withdrawal (tanking);1 iiii. an official’s deliberate misapplication of the rules of the contest; v. interference with the play or playing surfaces by venue staff; and vi. abuse of insider information to support a bet placed by any of the above or placed by a gambler who has recruited such people to manipulate an outcome or contingency” (p.2). Match-fixing can arise in two forms: betting-related match-fixing with the aim of achieving financial gain; or sports-related match-fixing which is motivated by the desire to qualify for a competition (Katsarova, 2016). This chapter focuses on the former and will use the terms match- fixing and match-manipulation interchangeably throughout.

  • Keeping the Ball Rolling: 100 Years of Women's Football in Wrexham'.Pdf
    Keeping the Ball Rolling: 100 Years of women’s football in Wrexham Wrexham feels it is the spiritual home of football in Wales; it hopes the National Football Museum of Wales will be developed as part of Wrexham Museum, which is in the town centre. The Football Association of Wales (FAW) was formed in the Wynnstay Arms Hotel, High Street, Wrexham in 1876 so that a national match could be played against Scotland in 1877; the Welsh team lost 2-0. Photograph by author 1 Photograph by author A bronze Plaque commemorates the FAW on the front of the building. The match was played on The Racecourse Stadium in Wrexham, which according to the Guinness Book of Records is the oldest stadium in Britain still used for International matches. https://www.footballgroundguide.com/leagues/conference/conference-premier/wrexham-afc- racecourse-ground.html The history of Wrexham Football Team is well documented, but it’s a selective history; there are no women in it. This is the history of the women’s game in Wrexham. 2 The first women’s match at the Racecourse was played in December 1917 by the women of Powell Brothers Munitions factory. Munitions factories were the biggest employers of women during the First World War; Powell Brothers employed 220 women and 36 men. This was the first time Wrexham women worked together in such large numbers as until this time most of them were in domestic service. So, what motivated these young women to challenge the bounds of respectability by playing a contact game on a muddy pitch wearing clothing which was above the knee, let alone the ankle – and in public? Photo by author Wrexham General Station on the left, Powell’s Munitions factory on the right.

  • To: CELG Committee From: David Collins, Editor, Welsh Football I
    To: CELG Committee From: David Collins, Editor, Welsh Football I wish to submit the following views to the Communities, Equality and Local Government Committee inquiry into the Welsh Premier League. I write as editor of Welsh Football magazine, the unofficial national football magazine of Wales. This has been continuously produced since 1991 by football enthusiasts, as a not-for- profit publication, to ensure that our nation has a national magazine to match the independent status of Wales in football. One of our primary focuses is the Welsh Premier League and the domestic structure below it. I am not a professional journalist, nor have I worked in sports administration. However, I have watched a large amount of Welsh Premier football over its twenty year existence and I am in no doubt that the standard of play and the spectator facilities have improved beyond recognition. Today we have a competition which bears comparison with the Football Conference in England – yet has a far lower profile even in Wales and attracts less public attention, including attendances. Indeed, the single biggest problem the league still has is its public perception: incongruously, despite the national pride in Wales as a nation displayed in so many walks of life, rather than celebrate the fact that we have our own league and cup competitions enabling our clubs to represent their country in UEFA competition, the wider public and press attitude to our national league is often a mixture of embarrassment and disinterest. This attitude contrasts strongly with many other smaller nations in Europe - and also with attitudes to Welsh rugby clubs and competitions.

  • Further Information Was Requested by the Committee Regarding the Following Points and Here Is the Football Association of Wales’ Response
    Further information was requested by the Committee regarding the following points and here is the Football Association of Wales’ response: The current support provided by both central and local government in Wales for the Welsh Premier League and suggestions for support in the future. While no funding whatsoever has been invested directly into the WPL by WAG in the past 10 years, Welsh Football is receiving £1,332,418 in 2011/12 through the Welsh Football Trust out of Sport Wales’ annual budget of over £25 million. A further investment of £750,000 has also been confirmed by Sport Wales for the National Development Centre in Newport. During the same period the Welsh Rugby Union is receiving funding to the tune of £555,345.21 from Sport Wales and a further £500,000 for purchasing the big screens at the Millennium Stadium. As previously mentioned there are 1,500 football clubs in Wales compared to 340 rugby clubs and the WRU’s annual turnover last year was over £54 million compared to the FAW’s £10 million. We have requested figures from the WLGA regarding funding for football at all levels but haven’t received the relevant information as yet but it is no secret that that the level of local government investment has fallen sharply in recent years. Five years ago the Welsh Football Trust received partnership funding for the Football Development Posts from 21 of the 22 local authorities – this would equate to about £350,000 of financial support. None of the LA’s are now funding posts but due to additional FAW funding 18 posts are still active which again proves the FAW’s commitment to developing football at all levels.

Conclusions & Recommendations 83 ©The Football Association of Wales Welsh Football Governance Review Executive Summary In October 2012, the Council of the FAW authorised a Review of football and its governance structures in Wales. The FAW Council agreed that the Review should cover all of football, from grassroots to international level. The Review focused on the structures and procedures of the organisations involved with the game in Wales, including the FAW, the WFT and the Area Associations. A ‘Review Panel’ was established to oversee the Review process on behalf of the FAW Council. The evidence suggests a clear need to modernise the governance structures and operations of Welsh football with a total of 88 recommendations highlighted in this report. The report highlights the need to ensure that there are clear roles and responsibilities for each Board, Committee or Panel with defined remit and autonomy. Furthermore, decision- making processes – it is argued - should be clear and less bureaucratic and in the hands of the relevant ‘empowered’ bodies.
