  • Bryan Curtis
    The Library of America • Story of the Week Reprinted from Football: Great Writing about the National Sport (The Library of America, 2014), pages 413–34. Headnote by John Schulian. Originally appeared in Texas Monthly (January 2013). Copyright © 2013. Reprinted by permission of Texas Monthly. Bryan Curtis Bryan Curtis (b. 1977) is predictable only in that there seem to be surprises in everything he writes, good surprises, the kind that let readers know they can count on him for a unique take no matter what the subject. Consider the surge in concern over concussions in football from the NFL on down to the youth leagues. It was the youth leagues that fascinated Curtis, a staff writer at the website Grantland and a native Texan whose byline appears fre- quently in Texas Monthly. He wanted to see “how they were processing the news about football. How they were coming to grips with it. How they were, in some cases, ignoring it.” Curtis found the perfect team to study in Allen, Texas, outside Dallas—undefeated for years, loaded with prize elementary school athletes who would realize only later that they were saying good-bye to childhood. His story about them, “Friday Night Tykes,” appeared in Texas Monthly’s January 2013 issue and provided further evidence that he is one of the new century’s very best sportswriters. Curtis began his journalism career by writing about the real world for the New Republic and Slate, first explored the world of fun and games at the New York Times’ sports magazine Play, and returned to the serious side to help Tina Brown, the mercurial former Vanity Fair and New Yorker editor, launch The Daily Beast.

    Page 1 of 61 Report to the Future Melbourne (Planning) Committee Agenda item 6.1 Ministerial Planning Referral: ID-2020-2 18 August 2020 Carlton Recreation Ground, Princes Park, Carlton Presenter: Evan Counsel, Director Planning and Building Purpose and background 1. The purpose of this report is to advise the Future Melbourne Committee of an application to amend the Melbourne Planning Scheme (the amendment, Attachment 3) to apply a Specific Controls Overlay (SCO) to the land known as the Carlton Recreation Ground or Ikon Park, Carlton (refer Attachment 2 - Locality plan). The amendment would also introduce a new site specific Incorporated Document (ID) to manage and facilitate the ongoing use and development of the site. 2. The applicant is Contour Consultants on behalf of Carlton Football Club (CFC) and the land manager is Melbourne City Council. A concept plan prepared by Populous forms part of the ID and sets out the basic footprint of future anticipated buildings on site. If the amendment is approved, the ID would require detailed plans to be submitted to Council for assessment and approval prior to works commencing. 3. The proposed controls the amendment seeks to introduce into the planning scheme seek to replicate the terms and provisions of the Carlton (Recreation Ground) Land Act 1966. 4. The site is located in a Public Park and Recreation Zone (PPRZ) and is covered by the Heritage Overlay (HO1 - Carlton Precinct). The proposed SCO would replace these controls and provide a single point of reference for the use and development of the site. 5. The Minister for Planning is the Planning Authority and has referred the application to Council in accordance with Section 20(5) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987.

  • Work Underway on New Elite Women's Facilities at Ikon Park.Pdf Pdf 199.59 KB
    Wednesday, 27 January 2021 WORK UNDERWAY ON NEW ELITE WOMEN’S FACILITIES AT IKON PARK Purpose-built AFLW change rooms and an elite indoor training facility will level the playing field for women footballers at Ikon Park, with work underway on the landmark project. On the eve of the 2021 AFLW season, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Martin Pakula today joined Carlton president Mark LoGiudice, AFLW stars Maddy Prespakis and Tayla Harris and Federal Minister for Superannuation, Financial Services and the Digital Economy Jane Hume at Ikon Park to view progress. Prior to the pandemic, women’s football in Victoria was booming and with the anticipated return of community footy in 2021, that trend is set to continue. The establishment of the AFLW in 2017 was a game-changer, with Ikon Park hosting a sell-out crowd of nearly 25,000 people at the first-ever AFLW match between Carlton and Collingwood. The 2021 AFLW season kicks off tomorrow night at Ikon Park with the Blues again hosting the Magpies. Current match-day facilities are below par and the project will see the demolition of the Pratt Stand and the construction of a match-day pavilion with AFLW-standard change rooms, an elite indoor training facility and better views into the ground from Princes Park. The existing training and administration building will be refurbished and upgraded to provide AFLW and AFL players and staff access to the same facilities and resources, reinforcing a culture of gender equality throughout the club. Lighting will also be upgraded to allow broadcasting of AFLW night matches.

As the number of teams in the competition grew, so to did the number of finalists. The "Mcintyre Final Five" was introduced in 1972, and a system involving six teams was in place in 1991.
