Ssn Commission Applicant Pack SSN COMMISSION APPLICANT PACK SSN COMMISSION APPLICANT PACK 1 Background Netball holds a unique position in the Australian sporting landscape. It is a sport with significant and long held participation rates that are the envy of many other Australian sports. It is widely held to be the major women’s sport in Australia with eight out of ten Australian families having some involvement with netball — either through playing, volunteering, coaching or assisting in the administration of the sport. Netball Australia (NA) is the national body for Netball in Australia and is the owner of the Super Netball League (SNL) the organisations professional competition. Netball Australia has a 30+ year history of conducting and investing in this elite fan focused competition with the Mobil League; Commonwealth Bank Trophy, ANZ Championship and now Suncorp Super Netball. The current iteration of the league was established in 2017 following the decision to exit the previous Trans-Tasman competition and focus on domestic growth. Eight teams make up the current competition with two teams in the larger states of VIC, NSW and QLD and one team each in WA and SA. Six of the eight teams are owned and operated by the State Sporting Organisation with the two remaining teams owned by AFL (Collingwood) and NRL (Melbourne Storm) clubs. Each of these teams have signed a Team Participation Agreement (TPA) that ensures their involvement in the league until the end of 2021 which is also the end of the current broadcast agreement with NINE and Telstra. Ten athletes are contracted to each team meaning there are 80 athletes who are signed to full time contracts with their teams. The Australian Netball Players Association (ANPA) acts as the representative body for these athletes and plays a key role in the negotiation of the Collective Players Agreement (CPA). SSN COMMISSION APPLICANT PACK 2 SSN COMMISSION Netball is at a significant turning point in its evolution as a leading sport in Australia, as it walks the line between its historical amateur status and the full professionalism of its athletes. Recognising this need to evolve, in December 2018 the decision was taken by the NA Board to establish a new company known as Super Netball League (SNL) Limited with an appointed Commission to assume responsibility for the sustainability and growth of the league. The SNL Commission will consist of seven Directors with four appointed by the board of NA (plus the NA CEO) and two appointed by the Commission. The Commission will then independently elect the Chair. SNL will be wholly owned by NA who will possess certain rights of veto, however the Commission will be given the mandate to self-govern and lead its own operations. SNL will appoint its own Chief Executive Officer of SNL who will carry out the role of Public Officer for the SNL company. A partnership agreement will be established between NA and SNL that will enshrine a custodian role for the professional game of Netball. As the owner of SNL, NA will continue to employ all staff and all commercial arrangements will be contracted to NA in the first instance whereby a valuation will be agreed and distributed to SNL for the purposes of running the competition. This Commission would have the primary focus of realising Netball Australia’s vision of creating the number one sporting league for women in the World. The Commission will oversee and make all decisions relating to the league and bring additional and focused authority, influence and commercial leadership to ensure the long-term sustainability of the league and clubs, which is about to head into its third year of existence.

INTRODUCTION This is a joint submission on behalf of the Australian Netball Players’ Association (“ANPA”) and the Australian Workers’ Union (“AWU”). We would like to thank John Kirby and Village Roadshow for their support. History of the partnership Former Australian captain Kathryn Harby-Williams founded the current ANPA in 2003. The association was created as a voice for Australia’s leading female athletes to communicate with the governing body Netball Australia. The ANPA won landmark decisions against Netball Australia on areas of restraint of trade and female rights. By 2004, the association was unable to attract sufficient funds to continue such work and thus began discussions with AWU following an approach to ANPA by AWU National Secretary Bill Shorten.
