It has been accepted for inclusion in Professional Projects from the College of Journalism and Mass Communications by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Rugby League as a Televised Product in the United States of America By Mike Morris Abstract Rugby league is a form of rugby that is more similar to American football than its more globally popular cousin rugby union. This similarity to the United States of America’s most popular sport, that country’s appetite for sport, and its previous acceptance of foreign sports products makes rugby league an attractive product for American media outlets to present and promote. Rugby league’s history as a working-class sport in England and Australia will appeal to American consumers hungry for grit and authenticity from their favorite athletes and teams.

Impact of Not Proceeding with the Development 1.0 Project Vision 1.1 Through the establishment of a Project Board the key partners, Allerdale Borough Council, Workington Reds AFC and Workington Town RFLC have agreed the following vision for the development of a new community stadium in Workington: “The new Stadium will be for West Cumbria: accessed and accessible to the community every day of the week as well our professional Football and Rugby League clubs. Our shared aspiration is to create a compelling beacon for civic pride: that excites, enthuses and serves the community and in so doing, generates sporting ambition and inspiration. The Stadium will replace Derwent Park and Borough Park respectively as the home for Workington Town RLFC and Workington Reds AFC with a development that is fundamentally more compatible with a 21st Century, family-centred, leisure and sporting experience for supporters, visitors, amateur and professional athletes. The Stadium will be efficient, safe, robust, and attractive. Above all, it must be sustainable with a broad economic base to ensure viability and latest technologies to make it financially efficient and minimise its own carbon footprint. The Stadium will be a major component in the lower Derwent Valley masterplan alongside the Workington Sports Centre and at the edge of the town centre.

    CET CryoSpas Testimonials Widnes Vikings (English Super League) “The CET CryoSpa... has been invaluable in helping the management of fatigue and recovery in our squad of players. Colin was able to provide us with a high quality product that was fitted into a difficult space - the solutions that he provided were much better than the concept that we had originally planned! The product was installed very quickly. The daily maintenance is minimal and fits easily into our busy schedules. All the players use the spa at least twice a week, and feel that it really aids their recovery - when you consider the performance demands that are placed upon the squad, it can be seen why this is so important! I would happily recommend Colin and the CET CryoSpa to anyone who is working with performance athletes.“ Clive Brewer, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach, Widnes Vikings Hull FC (English Super League) “The CET Cryospa is not just an ice bath but a whole new therapy. It’s brilliant, absolutely brilliant!“ reports Paul Devlin, Strength & Conditioning Coach for Hull FC. “I am really pleased to have one. The players love it.“ Fulham Football Club (English Premier League) The CET CryoSpa formed an integral part of the recovery strategy for Fulham Football Club (English Premier League Soccer Club) in their run up to the 2010 Europa League Final in Hamburg. “When used in conjunction with our standard modalities we observed a positive effect on player recovery both physically and mentally.“ Martin O’Connell, Physiotherapist and Mark Taylor, Head of Sports Medicine and Exercise Science, Fulham Football Club.

Critically the review was much more than a desk-top analysis and has sought the views and opinions of key stakeholders; administrators and management of the game; partners; and the fan base, on a qualitative and quantitative basis. 1.3 Data validity has been important to this review and was therefore the backdrop to question design and a broad respondent base. 2 x online surveys; 1 x paper survey; face to face and telephone interviews were tested as appropriate against desk top data. Data validity will ensure that this review provides a strong platform from which to move forward without assumption.
