Tel: (209) 946 2981 Email: [email protected] 1 The UK Netball Superleague: A Case Study of Franchising in Elite Women's Sport Abstract This paper draws on theories of franchising in examining the emergence of the UK Netball Superleague in 2005. The focus of the paper is to explore the development of an empowered franchise framework as part of England Netball's elite performance strategy and the consequences of the Superleague for player performance, team success, and commercial potential of the franchises. The findings from 22 in-depth interviews conducted between 2008-2011 with franchise personnel and sport media/marketing consultants inform the discussion. The paper further comments on the implications of the empowered franchise system for developing NGB elite performance strategies. Introduction Emerging in the late 19th century as a sport “initially designed and traditionally administered as an activity for promoting appropriate forms of femininity” (Tagg, 2008, p 410), Netball is played by more than 20 million people in over 80 nations across the globe (INFA, 2011). It is an invasion ball game predominantly played by girls and women between teams of 7 players.

This saw a number of the Cambridge team being selected to make sure Thetford won the space to represent Suffolk in the east region playoff as a squad looking to enter the east regional league in September. For quite a few consecutive years we have won this stage. The first team we took to court against was Suffolk Rockets. For one reason or another, this was a must win game. We were not going to lose to them, in fact, I made it very clear we were going out to thrash them. With some clarity from Gill and the asking that we give 110%, we did not let her or Sue down. We held tight to our players throughout court, forcing them to make mistakes. Defence and centre court players were plucking interceptions from their long balls. The shooting from Emma and Ellie was marvellous and we won convincingly 20-8. We then took on Civil Service. We had a little swap around, bringing on fresh legs.
