Tel: (209) 946 2981 Email: [email protected] 1 The UK Netball Superleague: A Case Study of Franchising in Elite Women's Sport Abstract This paper draws on theories of franchising in examining the emergence of the UK Netball Superleague in 2005. The focus of the paper is to explore the development of an empowered franchise framework as part of England Netball's elite performance strategy and the consequences of the Superleague for player performance, team success, and commercial potential of the franchises. The findings from 22 in-depth interviews conducted between 2008-2011 with franchise personnel and sport media/marketing consultants inform the discussion. The paper further comments on the implications of the empowered franchise system for developing NGB elite performance strategies. Introduction Emerging in the late 19th century as a sport “initially designed and traditionally administered as an activity for promoting appropriate forms of femininity” (Tagg, 2008, p 410), Netball is played by more than 20 million people in over 80 nations across the globe (INFA, 2011). It is an invasion ball game predominantly played by girls and women between teams of 7 players.

In December, I went to Dartford in Kent to see what Joan Mills, Cathy Hickey and their team had done with Kent’s archives, are now housed within the Bergman-Osterberg museum. The day was most informative and it was good to speak to the museum curator about the storage and display of the archives.

  • BBG Bulletin Issue
    ISSUE 110 13th September 2019 The time had arrived for Year 7 to begin their Resilience Camp adventure. Although the weather was not the best when we arrived at school on Wednesday morning our spirits were high, and despite a few nerves about staying away from home students were excited to get going. Carrying all their belongings students boarded the walking bus and began their journey from BBG to Fanwoods. On completing the first challenge and arriving at camp the skies were dry and students were very excited and ready for their second challenge of putting up their tents and creating a home for the next three days. They followed instructions perfectly and embraced the challenge of putting up their tent and in no time our location had gone from an empty field to a little camping community. Although things did not go smoothly for some groups, all students persevered, demonstrating great Cognitive Resilience. Students were incredibly supportive of each other, not only working effectively as a tent group but also offering a helping hand to those that were struggling once their tents were up. Great friendships were already starting to blossom. Students were divided in to 17 groups, in which they completed a combination of the following activities; axe throwing, rifle shooting, bouldering, team building, grass sledging, archery tag, indoor cave, low ropes, night line, crate stacking, archery and photo orienteering. Each one designed to challenge students in various ways, allowing them to make new friends and find out new things about themselves. Throughout the activities students demonstrated real team spirit, from supporting those who were struggling to celebrating with each other when success was achieved.

LE11 3QF www.ournetballhistory.org.uk EARLY BEGININGS 1891 Game invented in USA by a YMCA Secretary, where it was then, and is now, called Basketball. First match recorded in America1900 (Boston) 1895 Visit of Dr Justin Toles, an American, to Madam Österberg’s Physical Training College (then at Hampstead). Students were taught Basket Ball - indoors – there were no printed rules - no lines, circles or boundaries. The goals were two waste paper baskets hung on walls at each end of the hall. Within Madame Bergman Österberg’s Report, dated 1895 the following was recorded : Basket Ball is an American game introduced into our College by Dr Toles ; its aim is to get the ball into the opponents’ basket or goal, the basket being placed at a height of about seven or eight feet. The play is entirely with the hands, and no player is allowed to hold the ball for more than 5 seconds. It is a good winter game and can be played by any number. We played a few games in the gymnasium under Dr Toles’ supervision. 1897 Game played out of doors on grass. An American lady paid a visit to the College (who moved to Dartford), and taught the game as then played by women in America. The students at Dartford introduced rings instead of baskets, the large ball and the division of the ground into three courts. After completing the physical training course, graduates of the college were virtually guaranteed employment in girls’ schools throughout the country, with an ample yearly salary of £100! 1900 The newly formed Ling Association (now the Physical Education Association) set up a sub-committee 1901 to revise and publish the first set of rules, 250 copies were published and many changes were adopted.
