From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition
From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition GEOFF WATSON Abstract Formerly rather uniform in pattern, sporting biographies have evolved significantly since the 1970s, becoming much more open in their criticism of teammates and administrators as well as being more revealing of their subject’s private lives. This article identifies three transitional phases in the genre; a chronological era, extending from the early twentieth century until the 1960s; an indirectly confessional phase between the 1970s and mid 1980s and an openly confessional phase from the mid-1980s. Despite these changes, sporting biographies continue to reinforce the dominant narratives around sport in New Zealand. New Zealand sporting biographies have a mixed reputation in literary and scholarly circles. Often denigrated for their allegedly formulaic style, they have also been criticised for their lack of insight into New Zealand society.1 Representative of this critique is Lloyd Jones, who wrote in 1999, “sport hardly earns a mention in our wider literature, and … the rest of society is rarely, if ever, admitted to our sports literature.”2 This article examines this perspective, arguing that sporting biographies afford a valuable insight into New Zealand’s changing self- image and values. Moreover, it will be argued that the nature of sporting biographies themselves has changed significantly since the 1980s and that they have become much more open in their discussion of teammates and the personal lives of their subjects. Whatever one’s perspective on the literary merits of sporting biographies, their popular appeal is undeniable. Whereas the print run of most scholarly texts in New Zealand is at best a few thousand, sporting biographies consistently sell in the tens of thousands. -

Daniel Vettori (New Zealand 1996 – 2012)
Daniel Vettori (New Zealand 1996 – 2012) Daniel Vettori is the youngest man to play Test cricket for New Zealand, and has gone on to play 113 Tests, becoming the most capped Kiwi. Quickly he became a regular in the Test team as his country’s leading spinner. However, Vettori grew frustrated with his batting, feeling that poor performances were letting down the team. After all, he had batted up the order in his other representative sides, and still considered himself a guy who could bat. In 2003 Daniel devoted time to his batting. “I spoke long and hard with Stephen Fleming and New Zealand Cricket’s technical advisor Ashley Ross about tightening up. Effectively, I modelled myself on Flem because he’d just overhauled his technique and was proving very successful. We were both tall left-handers … I don’t think we could ever be mistaken for each other … but there were elements that I definitely tried to copy from him … playing as late as possible and using the raised back lift but not with cocked wrists … I think the biggest adjustment was a mental one in that I simply wanted to bat for long periods. I didn’t want to throw my wicket away and I wanted to play straight. I worked hard in the nets and I played straight in match situations.” The work paid off. Daniel’s batting improved so much that he went on to become only the 8th player to manage the double of 3000 Test runs and 300 wickets (the other seven being Shane Warne, Kapil Dev, Richard Hadlee, Shaun Pollock, Ian Botham, Imran Khan and Chaminda Vaas). -

As the wider sports sector continued to strive to achieve in an increasingly competitive international environment, the New Zealand Olympic Committee addressed the need to more sharply define its core business, increase capability and better align with key partners. These changes were encapsulated in a new roadmap for the New Zealand Olympic Committee, the Statement of Purpose 2013 – 2016. This new direction will be most evident in performance planning and games team delivery as well as within our role as leaders in the Olympic and Commonwealth Games movements. -
