    The impact of supporter experience at the Jonsson Kings Park Stadium on The Sharks brand By Robyn Wheeler (15017776) Research Methodology Subject code: RESM8419 Supervisor: Gareth Gray Honours in the Bachelor of Arts in Strategic Brand Communications Word count: 11754 words I hereby declare that the Research Report submitter for the Honors in Strategic Brand Communication degree to The Independent Institute of Education is my own work and has not previously been submitted to another University or Higher Education Institution for degree purposes. Abstract 1 This small-scaled study reviewed supporters experiences within a sports stadium and their impact on a brand. The research specifically is centred around The Sharks brand and the Jonsson Kings Park Stadium, the home stadium of The Sharks rugby team. Rugby is a competitive sport that participates within South Africa’s heritage. This generated from the existence and the attendance to the home stadium of The Sharks. Attenders to the stadium have been declining due to supporters reducing their purchases of the stadium tickets. This study reviews themes that are common to sport stadiums that have suffered within similar scenarios. The information gathered in this study was accumulated through a qualitative approach. This would allow for flexibility of revealing deep insights during the entire primary research. The methodology of research performed involved focus groups and an online survey. The insights received from this, directed meaningful findings and recommendations that aspires to assist The Sharks by providing useful data to increase attenders to the stadium. It was concluded through the research that supporters do not value the stadium experience.

  • Capital Expenditure Project Listing
    CAPITAL EXPENDITURE PROJECT LISTING 1 January 1993 to 31 December 2016 NEDBANK GROUP ECONOMIC UNIT 07 February 2017 NOTES: Definition: The schedule is a listing of capital projects announced in the Republic of South Africa. It includes: Only projects valued at R20 million or more. Projects of an expansionary nature, i.e. capex which allows for an increase in the level of output, rather than pure replacement investment which involves the replacement of worn-out or outdated capital goods necessary for the continued operation and the maintenance of current output levels. The exceptions are: investment in equipment or machinery which reduces the harmful effects of pollution, and technological upgrading of equipment and machinery. Projects funded by both the private and public sectors. Projects reflecting direct foreign involvement. The listing is compiled on a sectoral basis, conforming to the Standard Industrial Classification. Limitations: Any analysis of the data needs to take account of the limitations outlined below: The schedule highlights significant areas of investment expenditure and not the absolute total value of all capital investment undertaken in the country. It serves as a rough guide to the general direction in which investment is moving and as an indication of the level of confidence in the economy. The full extent of replacement capital expenditure is not captured as mainly expansionary capital expenditure are published and recorded. In certain sectors a reliable indication of investment activity is not possible as typical investments are not large enough to be included in the schedule, even though the total capital expenditure in the sector may be substantial.

    Bheki Hlabane Title: The Political, Economic And Social Impact Of Hosting Mega-Sports Events: The 2010 South Africa World Cup In Comparative Perspective PhD Thesis submitted to: Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University (APU). Asia Pacific Studies (APS) 2012 Acknowledgements I am deeply thankful to my supervisor, Prof Jeremy Eades, whose support and guidance has served as a pillar of strength and encouragement throughout my studies. His approach and positive attitude had been the key in helping me develop a better understanding of the issues. I would also like to extend my gratitude to Prof Malcolm Cooper for giving direction throughout my fieldwork process. Further acknowledgements are due to the South African Tourism office in Japan and the South African Embassy in Japan. Both have made a significant contribution in my PhD studies in Japan. The chance to have such an exciting and educational research experience would not have been possible without the quality of programs offered at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University. In addition, the University helped me with material support, technical support and in participation in student life. They say life is a journey. I guess that is also true with studying towards a PhD degree. The experience I have gained throughout my studies at APU will be significant as my life moves forward. To date, I have managed to publish two papers/articles. The first one has been published with the Ritsumeikan Journal (RJAPS), Volume 28 in 2010 and titled Sociology of Sports mega-events, Tourism Perspective. The second one is published in The International Journal of Sport and Society, volume 1.Issue 4, titled Sociology of Sports Mega –Events: Sports Diplomacy and FIFA World Cup; ‘Global Peace Building Initiative.
