The Management of Football Development Programmes in Gauteng THE MANAGEMENT OF FOOTBALL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES IN GAUTENG by MANDY-LEE SOLOMON SHORT DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree MAGISTER COMMERCII in BUSINESS MANAGEMENT in the FACULTY OF MANAGEMENT at the UNIVERSITY OF JOHANNESBURG Supervisor: PROF C. SINGH JANUARY 2008 ABSTRACT South Africa are the proud hosts of the FIFA 2010 Football World Cup™, and deservedly so. A significant effort has been placed in winning the bid and continues this continues to be the situation as construction and infrastructure are being put in place for event. Time is fast becoming limited, now with just less than three years to go, proper development is essential. Outside the rush and pressure to be ready for this event and the economic benefits that that are attached, the opportunity exists to divert some of that momentum into something that will last way beyond 2010 – sustainable youth development programmes and football clubs. This entails that grassroots development and youth football development programs are structured and sustainable in order for well-rounded, well-developed players to graduate from it for many years to come. This study set out to ascertain the extent to which business management principles are applied in the management of football, as well as to explore the availability and applicability of policies and programmes provided by government and the national federation. The exact population size was extremely challenging to determine, largely due to insufficient and non-centralised record keeping by national and regional administrators. A sample size of 30 (n=30) that was geographically representative of Gauteng, was drawn. Researcher-administered interviews, with questionnaires, were used in the investigation. Meaningful insight was provided in the fact that only 33% of the respondents were aware of the White Paper on Sport and Recreation South Africa and indicated that there was a degree of alignment to it. The study highlighted the fact that while this document, and other policies regulating and supporting sport and sport development nationally are available, the respondents indicated a general lack of knowledge of these tools made available by the South African Department for Sport and Recreation and its partners. The National Federation, SAFA, devote little effort to football development programmes and while strides are being made in this regard, the increments of success are very small and potential benefits do not materialise. One further aspect concluded from the study was the lack of a clear understanding of what sport development, and football in particular, encompasses, and thus what a development programme should include. Current football programmes were found to be lacking with regard to the holistic development of players, as well as coaches, administrators and officials, in areas that extend beyond the tactical and technical aspects of football.

(NAME) (DATE) (Day, Month, Year) Acknowledgements I would like to express gratitude toward the following individuals and institutions: My study leader, Prof Paul Singh, for the leadership and guidance he provided throughout my studies. He demonstrated great patience and motivation especially at the toughest of times. Mr. Chris Fortuin, Mr Zunaid Mall and all the other football administrators who assisted me throughout my research.

ANNEXURE A: EXAMPLE OF QUESTIONNAIRE USED IN RESEARCHER- ADMINISTERED INTERVIEW Dear Sir/Madam I am currently undertaking research regarding the ‘Management of Football Development Programmes in Gauteng’. The purpose of this research is to establish the important components of the management of football development programmes and the level of success attained by the development programme. South Africa hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup™, exorbitant sums of investment in stadia, football development programmes on the increase, and significant amounts of resources into football countrywide has lead to widespread interest in football and in particular, Football Development Programmes. However, information regarding the structure of football development programmes in Gauteng, in particular, the management of the programmes, the level of success attained and a best practice model is limited. It is envisaged that the results of this survey will lead to a better understanding of the current practice within football development programmes in Gauteng and a formulation of a good practice model. It would be greatly appreciated if you, as a development officer of the Football Development Programme, would kindly complete the attached questionnaire. Your input is very valuable. The input gathered from your responses will be used for research purposes only. Your responses are confidential and voluntary. The questionnaire should take no longer than 20 minutes to complete, while the potential impact of your participation will last much longer, in the further development of football within Gauteng, and South Africa. Kindly complete the questionnaire with me, the interviewer. Please remember that the quality of the research product and its contribution is largely dependent on the quality of the information received. I thank you for taking the time to complete this questionnaire. Yours faithfully __________________ _______________ Mandy-Lee Solomon Prof. C.

  • Culture of South Africa
    Culture of South Africa From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Zulus in Natal Castle of Good Hope, the oldest colonial building in South Africa The culture of South Africa is known for its ethnic and cultural diversity. The South African black majority still has a substantial number of rural inhabitants who lead largely impoverished lives. It is among these people, however, that cultural traditions survive most strongly; as blacks have become increasingly urbanised and Westernised, aspects of traditional culture have declined. Urban blacks usually speak English or Afrikaans in addition to their native tongue. There are smaller but still significant groups of speakers of Khoisan languages who are not included in the eleven official languages, but are one of the eight other officially recognised languages. There are small groups of speakers of endangered languages, most of which are from the Khoi-San family, that receive no official status; however, some groups within South Africa are attempting to promote their use and revival. Members of middle class, who are predominantly white but whose ranks include growing numbers of black, coloured and Indian people, have lifestyles similar in many respects to that of people found in Western Europe, North America and Australasia. Members of the middle class often study and work abroad for greater exposure to the markets of the world. Indian South Africans preserve their cultural heritage, languages and religious beliefs, being either Christian, Hindu or Muslim and speaking English, with Indian languages like Hindi, Telugu, Tamil or Gujarati being spoken less frequently as second languages. The first Indians arrived on the Truro ship as indentured labourers in Natal to work the Sugar Cane Fields, while the rest arrived as traders.

    The culture of South Africa is known for its ethnic and cultural diversity. The South African black majority still has a substantial number of rural inhabitants who lead largely impoverished lives. It is among these people, however, that cultural traditions survive most strongly; as blacks have become increasingly urbanised and Westernised, aspects of traditional culture have declined. Urban blacks usually speak English or Afrikaans in addition to their native tongue. Music There is great diversity in music from South Africa. Many black musicians who sang in Afrikaans or English during apartheid have since begun to sing in traditional African languages, and have developed a unique style called Kwaito. Of note is Brenda Fassie, who launched to fame with her song "Weekend Special", which was sung in English. More famous traditional musicians include Ladysmith Black Mambazo, while the Soweto String Quartet performs classic music with an African flavour. White and Coloured South African singers are historically influenced by European musical styles. Cuisine The cuisine of South Africa is heavily meat-based and has spawned the distinctively South African social gathering known as a braai, or barbecue. Braai is widely popular, especially with whites, and includes meat, especially boerewors or spicy sausages, and mielies (maize) or Mielie-meal, often as a porridge, or pearl millet, a staple food of black South Africans. Pastries such like koeksisters and desserts like melktert (milk tart) are also universally popular. Vegetarianism is becoming widely accepted. Gender roles In general, all racial and ethnic groups in South Africa have long-standing beliefs concerning gender roles, and most are based on the premise that women are less important, or less deserving of power, than men.

Mai 2004. 12.21 Uhr. In Zürich gibt FIFA-Präsident Blatter bekannt: die Fußball-WM 2010 wird in Südafrika stattfinden. Das Land am Kap steht Kopf, tagelang. Atmo 2: Fans jubeln: I am very proud of my country and proud to say I am a South African. I can cry with joy Autorin: Freudentränen werden vergossen. Fremde umarmen sich. Es wird gesungen und getanzt. Alle sind an diesem Tag stolz darauf Südafrikaner zu sein. Es ist das größte Straßenfest nach Ende der Apartheid, nach den ersten freien Wahlen im Land. Ein unvergesslicher Tag auch für Südafrikas Botschafter in Deutschland Moses Chikane. O-Ton 1: I was in Pretoria, in the park..... Ich war in Pretoria, im Park, im Zentrum der Hauptstadt, gemeinsam mit tausenden Menschen, die alle auf die Ankündigung warteten, auf die Leinwand schauten und dann ganz still wurden. Das ist ungewöhnlich für Südafrikaner. Und Nelson Mandela, der normalerweise immer pünktlich ist, kam etwas zu spät. Als er sich setzte schienen alle die Luft anzuhalten vor Anspannung. Die Ankündigung Blatters kam wie ein Erdbeben. Jeder sprang plötzlich auf, man verstand sein eigenes Wort nicht mehr.
