The Brisbane Broncos Group achieved another before tax profit in excess of $2 million whilst the football team won the National Rugby League Premiership. The 2006 before tax profit for the Group was $2,261,054 (2005: $2,321,259) and the after tax profit was $1,536,403 (2005: $2,781,935). In 2005 the Group enjoyed an income tax benefit of $460,676 as a result of the recognition of previous losses that were available at that time. However, in 2006 an income tax expense of $724,651 has been recorded. HIGHLIGHTS The standout performances from a financial perspective were the increases in revenue from sponsorship, corporate sales, merchandise, and sustaining the very high level of income from season membership and ticketing achieved in 2005. The Group has positioned itself as an ‘in demand’ corporate partner in the Queensland and Australian market. As such, sponsorship levels have been maintained at record highs and close to capacity. Independent surveys have identified the Brisbane Broncos as the most popular and valuable sporting brand in Australia for the past two years. Although the football team had its highs and lows throughout the season, it played attractive football to still achieve an improved average crowd attendance compared to the 2005 season. Achieving an average attendance of 31,177 per match (30,055 in 2005) ensured the Group’s major income stream remained at a very healthy level. The season opened with a blockbuster against the North Queensland Cowboys (46,229), and finished with the Melbourne Storm (40,159) and the New Zealand Warriors (47,193), with healthy crowds in attendance generally across the board. The New Zealand Warriors match was Shane Webcke’s final premiership game at Suncorp Stadium and with the game promoted as his farewell, the public responded in a fine tribute to this wonderful campaigner for the Club. BRISBANE BRONCOS RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL TEAM The Broncos football team and coaching staff achieved the ultimate success at the end of the 2006 season, winning the NRL Premiership for the sixth time in the grand final on 1 October 2006 at Telstra Stadium. It was a wonderful end to a season that began with dramatic changes to the coaching staff at the end of 2005. I would like to take this opportunity to record congratulations to coach Wayne Bennett, captain Darren Lockyer and all of the coaches and players who worked so hard together to achieve their deserved success. The Brisbane Broncos players also contributed so much to the success of the Queensland State of Origin side in regaining the title, and to the Australian Tri Nations team who were also successful against New Zealand. Congratulations again to all involved and especially to Darren Lockyer who captained all three sides to success and for the second time in his career won the ‘Golden Boot’ award as the world’s best player. BOARD AND SENIOR MANAGEMENT The Board of Directors remained unchanged throughout the reporting period with Chairman Darryl Somerville completing his first financial year in that position. Donald Jackson, Peter Jourdain, Dennis Watt and myself maintained our directorships for the reporting period. Individual director details are listed in the Directors’ Report and notes to the financial statements in this publication. There were no changes in the senior management team as reported in the 2005 annual report. Myself as Managing Director, Louise Lanigan as General Manager Finance and Administration and Company Secretary, and Marty Rowen as Marketing Manager, maintained their positions on the executive team. I take this opportunity to thank my fellow directors for their support and guidance over the past twelve months. The management team and the entire staff appreciate it. I also pass on my thanks to all in the Brisbane Broncos front office for their dedicated contribution to the commercial side of our business. Their management, planning and job execution has ensured the Group enjoyed another productive year. 2006 annual financial statements and reports Brisbane Broncos Limited and its controlled entities Year in review (continued) THE YEAR AHEAD The 2006 financial result has facilitated the commencement of a $2 million long overdue renovation and extension to the football team’s gymnasium and training facility. No borrowings will be necessary to fund this project. The early signs for 2007 are positive and it appears that the current levels of sponsorship, season membership, ticketing and corporate sales will be maintained. The football team will remain competitive, and given favourable weather conditions and suitable scheduling of home matches by the National Rugby League, we can look forward with confidence to the coming year. Last year the Group committed to launch a community benefits program to assist charities and the needy. I am pleased to report that this has taken place and in 2007 the Brisbane Broncos Brand will be seen supporting a number of organisations this year both financially and physically. Project Safehands (reducing child violence), Epilepsy Queensland, Motor Neurone Disease Association of Queensland, Rosies (helping the homeless), St Vincent de Paul Society, Diabetes Qld, and the Queensland RSL are all early recipients of the Brisbane Broncos work in this area. Our sponsorship family continues to grow, and headed up by naming rights sponsor Ergon Energy they all deserve our appreciation. Sponsors are the rock we build each year on and without them we would struggle. On behalf of all at the Brisbane Broncos a sincere thank you to this exciting group of businesses who throw their corporate support behind this wonderful organisation. They are all listed elsewhere in this document and deserve your recognition and support in return. I look forward to continuing the momentum the Group has established over the past few years throughout 2007.

Independent sponsorship measurement company, SCOMM Australia, measured the media exposure generated by all sporting clubs’ major sponsorship assets and then benchmarked each property against all teams in the National Rugby League (NRL), Australian Football League (AFL), Super 14 Rugby Union and A-League Soccer. The 2006 benchmarking results confirmed the Brisbane Broncos as number one in almost every sponsorship category amongst other NRL teams while finishing fourth when measured against all football codes for exposure generated by the Broncos playing jersey. The Brisbane Broncos were a close second to AFL grand finalist Sydney Swans in the total benchmarking results for exposure generated by sporting teams on television. This is a great result considering that AFL is telecast in every state of Australia. 2006 was the first year of the new three year Ergon Energy naming rights agreement with the Broncos football team now known as the Ergon Energy Brisbane Broncos. A number of new sponsors of varying levels also joined the Broncos sponsorship family in 2006; these new partners included Queensland Transport, WOW Sight and Sound, Bundaberg Rum, Strathfield and Quest Newspapers. Our sponsorship portfolio again increased in 2006 with a growth of 2.3% from 2005 - a very positive result, considering the substantial 14% increase the previous year. The end of season 2006 saw nine of the clubs eleven largest sponsorship contracts expire. This brought with it a significant level of contract negotiations which became more complex when new potential sponsors expressed interest in a number of the expiring sponsorship categories.

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 28 October 2008 RE: Media Summary Wednesday 29 October to Monday 03 November 2008 Slater takes place among the greats: AUSTRALIA 52 ENGLAND 4. Billy Slater last night elevated himself into the pantheon of great Australian fullbacks with a blistering attacking performance that left his coach and Kangaroos legend Ricky Stuart grasping for adjectives. Along with Storm teammate and fellow three-try hero Greg Inglis, Slater turned on a once-in-a-season performance to shred England to pieces and leave any challenge to Australia's superiority in tatters. It also came just six days after the birth of his first child, a baby girl named Tyla Rose. Kiwis angry at grapple tackle: The Kiwis are fuming a dangerous grapple tackle on wing Sam Perrett went unpunished in last night's World Cup rugby league match but say they won't take the issue further. Wing Sam Perrett was left lying motionless after the second tackle of the match at Skilled Park, thanks to giant Papua New Guinea prop Makali Aizue. Replays clearly showed Aizue, the Kumuls' cult hero who plays for English club Hull KR, wrapping his arm around Perrett's neck and twisting it. Kiwis flog Kumuls: New Zealand 48 Papua New Guinea NG 6. A possible hamstring injury to Kiwis dynamo Benji Marshall threatened to overshadow his side's big win over Papua New Guinea at Skilled Park last night. Arguably the last superstar left in Stephen Kearney's squad, in the absence of show-stoppers like Roy Asotasi, Frank Pritchard and Sonny Bill Williams, Marshall is widely considered the Kiwis' great white hope.

  • The History of School Baseball in Australia
    The History of School Baseball in Australia Baseball has been played in schools since the early 1900s. In New South Wales the longest running School Knockout happens to be in the sport of Baseball, the Proud Shield competition as it is known, began in 1908, and was won by Fort Street High. The sport is presently played in over 500 Secondary Schools around Australia. At the interstate level, competitions have existed since the 1940's, with some evidence suggesting competitions in the 1930's. These competitions involved New South Wales and Queensland teams with spasmodic representation from South Australia and Victoria. Throughout the 1970's and early 1980's only New South Wales and Queensland teams competed, until 1987 when Australian Capital Territory played in a three way Championship. Michael Chapman, the New South Wales Combined High Schools Baseball Convener, worked tirelessly throughout this time to have other States participate and for Baseball to come under the umbrella of the Australian Schools Sports Council. In 1988, Michael was elected the first National Secretary of the Australian Secondary School Baseball Association under the banner of the Australian Schools Sports Council. The Championship of 1988, held in Canberra, had four teams - New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia and the Australian Capital Territory. It was a trial Championship before the full acceptance into the Australian Schools Sports Council. The venue for the inaugural Australian Secondary Schools Baseball Championship was Oriole Stadium, Sydney in 1989 where Victoria also competed for the first time. This year sees us playing our 21 st Championship. With the greater interest in the community, baseball standards have improved in schools.
