    Creating Value for New ZealandPhysical activity, physical recreation, and sport play an important role in the livesof New Zealanders, and have a significant impact on the nations health and identity.This sector also contributes to the development of New Zealand communities andeconomic growth.

    HEALTHThe health benefits of physical activity are beyond question. A significant and growingbody of research clearly indicates the value of physical activity. Physical activity reduces therisk of developing or dying from many serious diseases, becoming disabled, and havingaccidents. For example, it is a significant contributing factor in reducing cardiovasculardisease which accounts for 40 percent of all deaths in New Zealand. Physical activityalso reduces the risk of some forms of cancer and diabetes, obesity, depression and fallsin older people, and contributes to a range of improved health outcomes.

    Physical activity has a major part to play in reducing the social and economic impactof disease on the New Zealand population. An increase in physical activity would resultin considerable reduction to the $9.6B expected to be spent on health in 2003/04.

    The World Health Organization has identified physical inactivity as one of the biggestcontributors to the global burden of disease. Physical inactivity contributes to 2,600deaths per year (8 percent) in New Zealand, and is second only to smoking as a negativehealth behaviour.

    STRENGTHENING IDENTITYSport and physical recreation lie at the heart of New Zealands identity. New Zealandersinterest in sport is high with 94 percent interested and/or involved in sport. New Zealandspresence and success on the world stage makes a strong statement about the country.At the same time, sport and physical recreation creates a sense of community and

    nationhood. Sport, physical recreation and physical activity also provide opportunitiesfor New Zealands diverse peoples to express and reinforce their cultural identities.

    ECONOMIC GROWTHPhysical activity makes a significant contribution to the New Zealand economy. The recentMinisterial Taskforce on Sport, Fitness and Leisure identified immeasurable societalbenefits from sports participation, not to mention $300M per annum in sport-generatedtax payments. Studies of the economics of the sport and active leisure sector alsofound that:

    The real gross output from the sector was $1.9B in 1999 New Zealanders spend $1B per annum on sport and physical leisure activities

    and services (2.5 percent of total household spending)

    There were an estimated 41,000 jobs in the sector

    More than 500,000 people (19.6 percent of the adult population) volunteer theirtime to sports clubs and organisations, which is worth up to $1.9B per annum.

    International tourists who visited New Zealand to watch or play sport contributed a further$120M to the economy. The involvement of New Zealand teams and the hosting ofinternational events has major spin-offs for the economy. Sport also provides a vehicle toreinforce and enhance New Zealands brand image and improve the value of traded products.

    SOCIAL COHESIONSport and recreation clubs are at the core of New Zealand communities, drawingindividuals together, providing facilities and access to community services. Approximatelyone third of all New Zealanders participate in organised sporting activities. This activityfosters cooperation and helps strengthen social ties and networks within communities.

    Investment 2003/04

    PRINCIPLES

    Seven principles underpin SPARCs investment decisions.

    Investment rather than entitlement: SPARC will focus on investing funds, ratherthan allocating entitlements. Funding decisions will be made on the likelihood ofachieving a return on that investment and ability to contribute to positive outcomes.

    Sector alignment: SPARC investments will be made in the context of sector-widefunding. The goal is to fund opportunities where SPARC can make a difference.

    Strategic investment: SPARC will target its investment at the provision of nationalservices and in regional capacity building, rather than at the grass roots or local level.

    Prioritised investment: SPARC will focus investment in priority areas to maximisethe value of government investment.

    Long-term planning: Investment decisions will be signalled well in advance to alloworganisations the ability to plan and adapt. As part of this process, SPARC will agreeto funding agreements covering more than one year for organisations that have sound

    governance systems and structures and clear long-term strategies.

    Strategic partnership: SPARC will move away from being a provider of programmesto strategic investment and partnerships based on shared interest.

    Contestability: SPARC favours contestability of delivery and will look to invest in a rangeof organisations and opportunities that deliver positive outcomes.

    NATIONAL PHYSICAL ACTIVITY CAMPAIGNIncreasing the activity levels of New Zealanders is a major priority for SPARC. The CouchPotato Index (measurement of the number of people who are physically active for2.5 hours per week) indicates that 30 percent of New Zealanders are not active forthe recommended 2.5 hours per week and the rates of physical activity are decliningin some population groups; in particular among children, young people, Maori andPacific peoples. However, the Push Play campaign has contributed to increasedawareness of the need for physical activity. To further these gains over the next yearSPARC will:

    Extend and promote the Push Play campaign to ensure more New Zealandersare aware of the need to remain active

    Investigate two further psycho behavioural segment groups identified in the majorresearch undertaken in 2002/03 (with the Cancer Society), the research will identifythe triggers that will motivate people to be physically active

    Develop and implement the Active Schools framework including an additional$7M over three years in secondary school sport and physical activity coordinatorsto provide a range of sport and recreation opportunities to young people

    Invest $10M over three years to promote active communities in conjunction withterritorial authorities

    Continue to build and leverage relationships with the health and education sectors

    Review physical activity in early childhood with the aim of developing guidelinesand running a pilot (in conjunction with Plunket) to ensure young New Zealandersare getting the start they need in life.

    DEVELOPMENT AND LEADERSHIPSport and recreation organisations in New Zealand face a huge variety of challengesin their day-to-day business. The goal is to support national sport and recreationorganisations so they are capable of providing leadership in the current socialand economic climate. In this regard, SPARC will:

    Develop a national policy for sport and recreation

    Contribute to the revitalisation of key sport and recreation organisations

    Provide the sector with information on participation trends, barriers to physicalactivity and best practice

    Develop a web portal that will host internet sites for sport and recreation organisations

    Provide sport and recreation organisations with support on governanceand management issues

    Provide additional support to rural communities

    Support the Sport Dispute Tribunal to be a successful dispute resolution vehicle for sport.

    HIGH PERFORMANCENew Zealanders love sport and love to win, however, the international high performanceenvironment is getting tougher. To ensure that New Zealand continues to win key events,SPARC will invest in a high performance programme and provide services suchas sports medicine and sports science to athletes. Key strategies will be:

    Fund and support national sport organisations high-performance programmesto $42M over three years, based on the ability to win medals for New Zealand

    Support regional delivery of New Zealand Academy of Sport (NZAS) services

    to $12M over three years Administer the Prime Ministers Sport Scholarships and the Prime Ministers Coach

    Professional Development Scholarships

    Support athletes and teams with the potential to achieve in Athens 2004 throughfunding and support, and continue to work in partnership with the New ZealandOlympic Committee

    Implement a talent identification strategy.

    COACHINGCoaching is central to participation and performance in sport. Having coaches at all levelsthroughout New Zealand is essential not only to ensure success at sport, but also forsuccessful community participation. Coaching is currently marked by inconsistentstandards, a lack of recognition and a lack of status. To address these issues SPARC will:

    Establish an integrated national coach education system and deliver it systematicallythroughout New Zealand

    Lead the creation and implementation of a regional coachforce coach funding anddelivery system

    Invest an additional $1M per annum in the development and implementationof the national coaching strategy through national sports organisations

    Implement the high performance coach development programme thatsupports our elite coaches by providing Prime Ministers Coach ProfessionalDevelopment Scholarships.

    REGIONAL DELIVERYDelivering meaningful sport and recreation programmes depends on recognising andresponding to the preferences of people and offering them attractive and rewardingopportunities that add value to their lives. SPARC proposes to work with regionalorganisations, in particular territorial authorities and regional sports trusts to targetpeople and communities in need, and work to ensure resources are channelled intothe most successful activities. In this regard, SPARC will:

    Increase investment in regional delivery by $2M a year from 30 June 2004 Implement strategies to coordinate the physical activity needs of communities

    Support territorial authorities to develop, implement and review physical activity plans

    Work with regional sports trusts to develop a new funding system for introductionfrom 30 June 2004.

    RiskSECTOR FUNDINGAny negative impacts on sponsorship, community and gaming revenues for sportand recreation activities will cause contraction in activity and place pressure on SPARCto deliver.

    LOTTERIES FUNDINGFalling Lotteries Commission profits puts SPARCs ongoing programmes at risk.

    STAKEHOLDER EXPECTATIONSSPARC needs to ensure stakeholders have realistic expectations that SPARC is ableto meet. Failure to communicate effectively and meet stakeholder expectations will

    reduce goodwill and limit SPARCs ability to operate proactively.

    GOVERNMENT LEVERAGESPARCs mission and mandate is very broad. Its ability to be effective and successfuldepends upon its ability to influence and leverage other key government agencies,particularly in the education and health sectors. Failure to be effective in this regardwill place pressure on all other aspects of SPARCs activities.
