I thought it was 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: really cool, I think a cool way to kind of 17 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: wrap up the year because they interviewed fifteen athletes across 18 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: seven different sports and got to hear about the highs 19 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: and lows of their experiences in local level sport.

I knew it. 43 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: As the deadline passed last Friday, three formidable bids emerged 44 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 3: as contenders. First up, we've got the joint bid from 45 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 3: North American neighbors the USA and Mexico. They're obviously riding 46 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 3: high on the back of being awarded the twenty twenty 47 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 3: six Men's World Cup. So if they were to get 48 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 3: the twenty twenty seven Women's World Cup, I imagine a 49 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 3: lot of that infrastructure it would be ready to go, 50 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 3: which is always nice. They're obviously eager to deliver another 51 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 3: soccer spectacle for the women's game. 52 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 2: You've go there. 53 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: You then got Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands and they've 54 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 3: turned up for a European powerhouse bid. 55 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 2: I kind of like the idea of that one myself. 56 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: It'd be a cool trip, and those three countries are 57 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: very successful in football. Yes, so you're getting some quality. 58 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 3: And then there's Brazil, which we've been to, but that's 59 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: not as attractive for our first Do. 60 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: We feel like twenty twenty seven Fiftball Cup might be 61 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: like a proper trip? 62 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: Oh it's amy, isn't it. Wow? 63 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: So Brazil is in there. The solo bid they did. 64 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 3: Look sorry, they did a wonderful job with Rio under 65 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 3: some probably trying circumstances. They obviously a very soccer rich nation, 66 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 3: and they're banking on that vibrant history in the sport 67 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 3: to secure those hosting rights. The bid from USA and 68 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 3: Mexico is making waves emphasizing their ability to feel high 69 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: capacity stadiums for every match. 70 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 2: They're not just eyeing success. 71 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: They've said that they aim to set revenue records for 72 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 3: a women's World Cup. 73 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: I think, I know you're going to go on to 74 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: this quote, but I think to me, that should almost 75 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: be the benchmark. It should be how many cities, location 76 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: stadiums can you fill a stadium that is big enough 77 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,119 Speaker 1: for the demand of what women's football is up to now, 78 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: because we saw with the World Cup in Australia that 79 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: was one of the issues. 80 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 3: Well, and the reality is that and I'll put my 81 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: hand on and say I was shocked, but we actually 82 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 3: didn't end up having big enough stadiums like mind blowing. 83 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 3: I think of putting my little highlights, but one of 84 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 3: my highlights of the year I just skipped forward is 85 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 3: that Wednesday night match at Alliant Stadium France and Panama. 86 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: Forty two thousand people. They're not a spare seat in 87 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: the place, yep, so good. 88 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, And then the Tillies playing at Amy Park and 89 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: that sells out so quickly because it's not big enough. 90 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 91 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 3: So I think that's really important that those bids have 92 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 3: venues that are big enough to make it a commercial success. 93 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: Totally so. 94 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 3: Cindy Parlow Cone, the US Soccer President, sees this as 95 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 3: a golden opportunity for women's soccer. She stated this will 96 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 3: not only unlock the economic potential of women's soccer, it 97 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 3: will send a message to young players around the world 98 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: that there is no limit. 99 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: To what they can achieve. Cool. 100 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 3: FIFA will conduct on site inspection visits in February before 101 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: announcing the host in May at the FIFA Congress. The 102 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 3: twenty seven World Cupanies gearing up to be a game 103 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 3: changer of two said, and after the success of our 104 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 3: little World Cup that we had this year and New Zealand, 105 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 3: it's not forgetting these only a great job themselves. It's 106 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 3: really great to see football associations around the world really 107 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 3: keen again on the action. I think that's probably for 108 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 3: me the most pleasing thing that you've got three really 109 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 3: exceptional bids. 110 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. In rugby union, Guinness, the iconic Irish 111 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: beer brand, has just been announced as the new title 112 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: sponsor of the women's Six Nations International Rugby Union Tournament, 113 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: kicking off a long term deal from twenty twenty four. 114 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: Will You you were hungover? So I'm surprised you've spoken 115 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: so much about beer already so far into the episode. 116 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: I must have been the first thing I was thinking 117 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 2: of Guinness. 118 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 3: Imagine coming off the field and being presented with a 119 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: delightful black beer. 120 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: That's rough, that is rough, that is rough. This is 121 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: a big move for the sport, with Guinness taking over 122 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: from TikTok, which came on board in twenty twenty two. 123 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: The dealers estimated to be around fifteen million pounds, which 124 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: is thirty million Australian dollars per year. According to the 125 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 1: Telegraph in the UK, The partnership aims to support the 126 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: growth of the women's competition and work towards a level 127 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: playing field between men's and women's rugby. Guinness is no 128 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: stranger to rugby sponsorships. They've been backing the men's Six 129 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: Nations since twenty nineteen and this extension to the women's 130 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: tournament marks the defining moment for rugby, as noted by 131 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: Six Nations Rugby chief Executive Tom Harrison, who said the 132 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: women's game is the biggest growth engine for rugby and 133 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: through this partnership, Guinness will help accelerate this. Accelerate the engine. 134 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: Oh exclited you hearry about the growth engine. 135 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: No, you could hear it in my voice. Last year's 136 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: Women's Six Nations, decided between England and France, was a blockbuster, 137 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: attracting a record crowd of fifty eight, four hundred and 138 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 1: ninety eight at Twickenham Stadium, the largest ever for a 139 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: women's rugby union game. The twenty twenty four Women's Six 140 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: Nations is just around the corner, kicking off on March 141 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: twenty third. 142 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 2: So good in netball. 143 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: As we predicted a few weeks ago, Netball stra CEO 144 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: Killy Ryan has not survived the fallout from the protracted 145 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 3: CPA negotiations. Ryan resigned from a position at the national 146 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 3: governing body, effective immediately last week. Stacey West, netball Astray's 147 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: executive general manager Performance, stepped in as the acting chief executive. 148 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 3: So obviously that Paige to you dispute has left. That 149 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 3: left elites of the netball players unpaid since their contracts 150 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 3: expired in September, put a lot of pressure on Ryan, 151 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: and it was quite astounding that it lasted as long 152 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: as it did. 153 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: It was quite bizarre the way it all unfolded. 154 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 3: I just as a CEO, I just I would feel 155 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 3: a responsibility to make sure that that that deal got done. 156 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: And I think because of the fact that the players 157 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: were not getting paid for such a long period of 158 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: time like there was, I think they probably thought in 159 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: the early days of the negotiations that they could use 160 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: that as leverage, and then it just got to the 161 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: point of like, this is not okay. 162 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 163 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 3: In a statement released on Monday, Ryan said, having reached 164 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 3: an in principle agreement on the CPA pay deal and 165 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 3: watched with pride as our Diamonds won the Comweth Games 166 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 3: and the Network World Cup, the timing felt right to 167 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 3: hand over the reins to a new leader. There are 168 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 3: calls for other members of the organization to make way 169 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 3: for a long overdue clean out in an effort to 170 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: repair what I think, and that's we've spoke about this before, 171 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 3: but I think the real key issue is there's a 172 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 3: that the trust between the Netbleistria and the playing group 173 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 3: is pretty busted. 174 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: And what's also interesting comparing it to the AFL negotiations 175 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: that happened earlier in the year. I've actually seen a 176 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: few of the netball players touch on the fact that 177 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: they don't have a huge players association, so we actually 178 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: as players in AFL can rely on our Players Association 179 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: to go in and get those negotiations done on our behalf. 180 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: In a few years ago, our relationship with the PA 181 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: was a little bit fractured after one of the CBA 182 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: negotiations the players weren't happy with. But the Players Association 183 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: have put a huge amount of effort in the AFL 184 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: to make sure they're really pushing for what the both 185 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: the men's and the women's players want. But it was 186 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: quite interesting to see there was so much put on 187 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: the players themselves. The netball is to use their own 188 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: channels to be at all of these media appearances, having 189 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: to do all that hardlifting while not getting paid to 190 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 1: speak on behalf of the play and grow which is 191 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: quite interesting. 192 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, guess what you touched on there 193 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 3: without kind of being specific about it is, at the 194 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 3: end of the day, in a sport where you do 195 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 3: have a male cohort that are obviously or that are 196 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 3: you know, I guess been around longer and have a 197 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: little bit more weight in those discussions. 198 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 2: If they're on your side, that can be very beneficial. 199 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 2: And I think the. 200 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 3: Netball players are obviously just them and yeah they were 201 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 3: completely hung out to dry. 202 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: They were and it was really upsetting. There's I think 203 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 2: that's the key thing. There's real genuine need. 204 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 3: To improve the transparency between Australian networks plays association, both 205 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 3: from the financial point of view and with regard to 206 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 3: any decisions they make. I think even before this there 207 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 3: was all those decisions that like the playing group would 208 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 3: be advised of late or it was just really poor. 209 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 3: So obviously, even on our post, the cause for Lizel's 210 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 3: to be handed the top job started early and they're 211 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 3: pretty loud. 212 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: I wanted to discuss this with you, Bez, because I 213 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: don't know what decision Netble Australia are going to make 214 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: in this context. But I just think if there are 215 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: so many people who are so passionate and backing this 216 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: idea of Liz Elis being involved, to me, that is 217 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: like a no brain a way to help start to 218 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: turn the game around from that public perception. 219 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 3: If I'm Netble Australia right now, I'm going to the 220 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: Players Association and saying, ask your players who they want like, 221 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 3: I think that is the first step that's imperative to 222 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 3: building that trust again. 223 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: I was at a Minerva Network event that's female athletes 224 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: and businesswomen, and I sat on a panel with Todd Greenberg, 225 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: and he talked about the fact that the athletes of 226 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: your game are your biggest asset. They perform, but they 227 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: also sell the game, so you need to have them 228 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: on board and aligned with what you're trying to achieve. 229 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, they are. 230 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 3: It's that unique situation where there are your employees, but they're. 231 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 2: Also your product. 232 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 3: So you know, whilst you think you can treat them 233 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 3: as employees, without them, you don't have a product. 234 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a tricky balance. 235 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 2: Yeah. Anyway, I'm here. I'm on the Lizella span wagon. 236 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: I'm here for it, and she's a legend. 237 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 3: I believe she might be a bit busy in the 238 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 3: new year though she's hosting the return of Gladiator. 239 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: Oh. 240 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: I've seen her and Bo Ryan in snow Sports, the 241 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: snow covered slopes of Oh why did you give me 242 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: this one? 243 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 2: Up to z Oh? 244 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: Nice? 245 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: Finally not because I climb up it in the Tour 246 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: de France. 247 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: Yes aren't you great?

I think that's it. 486 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 2: That's it. 487 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: Onto the next because every single in the whole country, 488 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: across the world knows exactly what we're talking about. 489 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 3: And then so it's funny because you caught up with 490 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 3: Sally Fitzgibbons during the week at a beach event. 491 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, funnily enough, and she talked about the semi final. 492 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 3: Which obviously we lost, Yes, but it wasn't again at 493 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 3: Home Bush in front of ninety thousand people or whatever. 494 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 3: It was a whole heap of us that goal from 495 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 3: Sam Kerr, where it was almost like she was like, 496 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 3: all right, I'm going to sort this out, yeah, to 497 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 3: get us to one one. It was one of the 498 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: most sublime pieces of football I've ever seen. 499 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people talked about the 500 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: fact that, oh, Samka's overrated, like, look, how well they've 501 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: done without her. Don't put her back into the starting lineup, 502 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: She'll mess it up. And then she literally rocks up 503 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: and kicks a goal like that. Sorry, what more do 504 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: you want her to do? 505 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 2: She's not overrated at all, not at all. 506 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 3: So yeah, I think that for me obviously the penalty shootout, 507 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: the whole house was just going spare. It was crazy, 508 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 3: wasn't it. I think someone coming and I want to 509 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: post it. That will be a moment that you'll always 510 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 3: remember where you were. 511 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, where were you when?

Clever clever sport netball. The World cart returned 516 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: to Australia and the Diamonds crushed England sixty one to 517 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: forty five to be crowned Netball World Cup champions for 518 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: the twelfth time and now have all the trophies in 519 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: the cabinet. 520 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 2: Whet, it's a full cabinet, a full full cabinet, and 521 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 2: then all the way back. 522 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,919 Speaker 3: In February, the AUSI women's cricket team was rightly hailed 523 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 3: as the best ever, winning the six Women's Tea Tony 524 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 3: World Cup. 525 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: They're so good, they are the best ever. 526 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 2: It was their fourth successive World Cup white ball triumph. 527 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 3: The team so when you include t twenties and fifty 528 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 3: oervers for Matt stretching back to twenty eighteen and you 529 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 3: just throw in the Calm Games title in there as well. 530 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: Brought in the same with the netballers. 531 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: How good. And the paramatieldas was another epic one. They 532 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 1: won the Asia Oceania IPCPF.

Let's take a look at the key story. 555 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: For the key story, we'll chat to Sophie Norris, who 556 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: with one of her UNI mates, created a documentary series 557 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: about women in sport in Bathurst. Sophie, thanks so much 558 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: for having a chat to us. Can you tell us 559 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,719 Speaker 1: a little bit about why is it that you wanted 560 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: to do this documentary for your university project. 561 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 4: I think the original motivation stem from what I'd noticed myself. 562 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 4: I play soccer in my local competition and every Sunday 563 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 4: it's always the massive deal. Oh did we get field 564 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 4: one or did the boys get field one? Because really, 565 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 4: whoever's on field one will get all the spectators. So 566 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 4: it kind of started from there, and I wondered, oh, 567 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 4: you know, is it just soccer that has these issues 568 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 4: or is it you know, AFL or basketball or every 569 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 4: other sport that's played in Bathist. So I wanted to know, Yeah, 570 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 4: I suppose did everyone feel the same. 571 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 1: And how did you go about? Did you go out 572 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: and approach different athletes from different sports? Did you just 573 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: reach out to them? 574 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 575 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,479 Speaker 4: I literally just Facebook message up cold Facebook message all 576 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 4: these random people. But the best part was that kind 577 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 4: of as soon as I found one person after we 578 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 4: finished that interview, they'd be like, oh, have you talked 579 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 4: to this person? They'd be great to talk about this, 580 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 4: or they know so much about this sport, or they'd 581 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 4: love to talk about this. So it only really required 582 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 4: finding one person, and then it almost joined the dots 583 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 4: like a trail. 584 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: Yeah cool, and I've watched it the docker on YouTube. 585 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 1: Can you tell us a bit about what are some 586 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 1: of the key findings that are impacting girls and women's 587 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: in grassroots sport? 588 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 4: So we obviously broke it down into kind of uniform 589 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 4: and apparel coverage and then pay and obviously there's more 590 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 4: issues than that as well, but they were the most pronounced. 591 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 4: I think the main one with apparel that we noticed 592 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 4: is that girls and women athletes are not really being 593 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 4: consulted on the type of kids that they're wearing. Often 594 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 4: they're just kind of getting kids that them. Often the 595 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 4: people in committees are male athletes who haven't had to 596 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 4: wear them, and they don't understand the differing body shapes. 597 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 4: And that was pretty much across the board. Something that 598 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 4: stood out, whether it was jerseys, singlets or shorts for 599 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 4: league and things like that, and the sample sizes weren't 600 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 4: being brought in. Would get to the end of the 601 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 4: year and they would just reuse the kit from the 602 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 4: previous year, and they're like, oh, can we just bring 603 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 4: in some samples and it would actually, you know, get 604 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 4: rid of this massive issue. And then I suppose on 605 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 4: the reverse, we asked the girls, when you do play 606 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 4: in a kid what's the difference when it's a good kit, 607 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 4: and they just said, it makes a world of difference 608 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 4: because you're not fidgeting, you're not noticing in terms of coverage. 609 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 4: Something that really stood out to me was the times 610 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 4: that games are played at a local level, so especially 611 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 4: kind of in the Central West. You know that first 612 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 4: tier ones men is always known as the crown jewel 613 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 4: of every sport. It seems like so often the games 614 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 4: would kind of be in the order of like the 615 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 4: ladies game, then the second men, and then the first men, 616 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: and so usually they would say the spectators would rock up, 617 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 4: you know, maybe at the end of their game if 618 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: they were lucky, otherwise they'd just miss it completely. But 619 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 4: one thing that I found really awesome the outlier was 620 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 4: that AFL actually in the Central West, they put their 621 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 4: second men's, then the ladies, then the first men's, and 622 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 4: everyone said that made such a huge difference because not 623 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 4: only would those second men stick around and support, but 624 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 4: those first men would get there early to just bolster 625 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 4: that crowd. So that was definitely finding. And I think 626 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 4: the other kind of main thing I noticed is that 627 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 4: especially with regards to not funding and pay, because there 628 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 4: was actually quite a lot of equality and things that 629 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 4: are you know, standard and on the board, but they 630 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 4: said it was the little things that were maybe less measurable. 631 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 4: And that's interesting because I know in your last podcast, 632 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 4: you had a quote about things being measured, so I 633 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 4: thought it kind of fitted well, But it was the 634 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 4: things that couldn't be measured, Like you know, sometimes the 635 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 4: boys would get a case of beer after the game 636 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 4: and they just wouldn't get one, or the girls wouldn't 637 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 4: get a water runner and they would just be expected 638 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 4: to run water for the boys. So it was the 639 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 4: things that were noticed in kind of not funding necessarily, 640 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 4: but just that little bit of extra help. 641 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: Are there any key suggestions that you could take away 642 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: from the work that you did. 643 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 4: I think the best and most encouraging thing was that 644 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 4: every person we interviewed, which is just only a small 645 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 4: section of everyone, had so many ideas when they were asked, 646 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 4: like they barely had any preparation and they were all 647 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 4: flowing with ideas. Some of the best ones and most 648 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 4: positive I think, were that there's lots of female friendly 649 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 4: change rooms coming in, especially in my area. Like even 650 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 4: the AFL club we talked to, they've got a massive 651 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 4: grant they're getting a female umpire and play a specific 652 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 4: change room, which said would be great for the girl's confidence. 653 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 4: I think, like I said before, the sample sizes too, 654 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 4: were a massive thing across the board, like, can we 655 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 4: just get some samples in? Doesn't everyone knows at that 656 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 4: start of the year it's hectic trying to order in Jerseys. 657 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 4: So let's get a bit organized and do it the 658 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 4: year before. And I think the last thing that was 659 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 4: just so obvious was just ask the players. They are 660 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 4: the ones who are experiencing it, and they're just not 661 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 4: being asked because when we did usk them, they had 662 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 4: so much to say. 663 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's really cool. A massive thanks for reaching out 664 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: and for coming on for a chat. I think it's 665 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: really cool that you are so passionate. I can see 666 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 1: it while you talk about it. You're so passionate about 667 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: this area, and I think it's so important. As I 668 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: said to you earlier, Bes and I talked about this 669 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: idea that we're often looking at the elite professional sport. 670 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: But I think the reason we do that is we 671 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: want that to filter down to the grassroots level. So 672 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: I think it's incredible the work that you've done. And 673 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: thanks so much for your time today, Sophie. 674 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 4: Thanks so much for having Chloe and Bez and love 675 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 4: everything about the Female Athlete Project. 676 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: Oh, thank you so much.
