Ministers Foreword INTRODUCTION
FOREWORD OF THE MINISTER OF SPORT AND RECREATION IN SOUTH AFRICA ON THE OCCASION OF ACCEPTING THE EMINENT PERSONS’ GROUP REPORT ON TRANSFORMATION IN SPORT (TRANSFORMATION COMMISSION) I am delighted to receive the fourth edition of the Status Report of the Eminent Person’s Group (EPG) on Transformation in Sport. The EPG, also known as the Transformation Commission within the sports movement has become our loadstar and barometer through which we measure the performance of our federations and sport bodies relative to the implementation of the Transformation Charter and its multi-dimensional score-card. Since the announcement of the first Transformation Status Report in 2012/2013, the sector and society at large was introduced to a scientific methodology of information gathering and analysis by an independent Transformation Commission (EPG). This Eminent Persons Group on Transformation in Sport, comprising respected personalities, men and women of good standing in society, has ushered in a new era of empirical data collection in order to arrive at evidence based decision-making in our sector. The groundbreaking research for transformation undertaken by the EPG and its able Secretariat in the past four years has debunked the fallacy of the quota system and brought to an end the festival of bogus statistics. For the first time in the transformation journey in South Africa, there is greater data reliability and clar-

ity of thought and action. No more reliance on rule of thumb anecdotal accounts.
Lessons learned from the previous three reports of the Eminent Persons Group on Transformation in Sport continue to draw our attention to the urgent need to fix the base on which development and transformation is predicated. The prerequisite for increased access and mass participation by youth and elderly in sport and reaction is grassroots sport development. Drawing our talent from a few privileged clubs and from less than 80 privileged schools at the expense of more than 27 000 schools largely in townships and villages, is morally unjustifiable and strategically suicidal. Denying young people sport participation opportunities is a travesty of justice

landscape.
There are a number of lessons to be learned from the previous and current EPG Reports. In the main, the first lesson is that everything stands and falls on sound leadership and good governance. Financial prudence and sponsorship retention is a function of good governance and ethical leadership. Leaders and administrators conduct the development and business of sport in a given social milieu that requires a firm grasp of local realities and global dynamics at play. This calls for the sports movement to ensure that only men and women of high calibre, impeccable quality, unquestionable integrity, competency and skills ascend to our local, continental and international bodies. The second lesson is that sport leadership and its administrators can long put the blame of the exclusive ownership of clubs on the doorsteps of white monopoly capital. The leadership must take ownership of the twin-task of balancing commercial interests and developmental imperatives. In this context, the current climate behoves sports leaders and administrators to take deliberate steps of ensuring that empowerment and transformation are driven in tandem, as the two are not mutually exclusive, but two sides of the same coin. The question that sport leaders must ask at all times is: what is the federation doing to develop talent, promote black ownership of clubs, promote small businesses in the sector, transform the boardrooms and back offices and promote participation of youth and women in sport ? The third lesson gleaned from the EPG Report coincides with the Report of the Commission on Gender Equity that highlights the urgent need for a drastic paradigm shift in our programmatic support and investment on women sport. The report points to EPG Transformation Status Report 2015 | 16
5
PERSONS GROUP 2015 | 2016 EPG EMINENT Transformation Status Report 2015 | 2016 Ministers Foreword
the immediate task and intervention of ensuring that a conducive environment is created for unencumbered participation of women in sport structures on and off the field of play.
In this connection boardrooms should be transformed from being fief-
doms of grey-haired old men in ivory-towers. Women and the youth must take their rightful place alongside their male counterparts, senior sports leaders, administrators and athletes. Their views must find expression in all the federations and sport bodies’ policy documents and strategic plans. It is therefore expected of the federations and sports bodies’ budgets to reflect our investment to bolster women’s teams and rejuvenate underage teams for incubation, talent development and identification. The fourth lesson to glean from the EPG Report is that transformation is a business imperative, hence all federations must ensure that it is a permanent feature on all the agendas of clubs, unions, associations and franchises. In addition to the appointment of Transformation Committees, the appointment of Transformation Officers is a prerequisite to the effective implementation of the National Sport and Recreation Plan, its attendant Transformation Charter and multi-dimensional score-card. On the 25th of April 2016 the Minister of Sport and Recreation announced punitive measures applicable to federations and sport bodies that failed to achieve their own set transformation targets. The punitive measures were translated into the following penalties: • Suspension and/or withdrawal of Government’s funding to the said federation due to non-compliance; • Withdrawal of Government’s recognition of the particular federation as a National Federation and whereafter publishing such a decision in the Government Gazette; • Revoking the privilege of a federation to host and bid for major and mega international tournaments in the Republic and withdrawal of recognition of the said federation; • Withdrawal of the federation’s opportunity to be awarded national colours via South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC) to players who participate under the auspices of that particular federation in order to represent the Republic nationally and internationally; •
Terminating the relationship and any co-operation between SRSA and the said federation due to non-compliance.
• Finally, withdrawal of political support and endorsements for sponsorships. The EPG on Transformation in Sport have submitted their report to the Minister of Sport and Recreation in South Africa and that enables me to make informed decisions on the penalties imposed on these federations in the last year under review. I am applying my mind to the progression of Athletics South Africa (ASA), Cricket South Africa (CSA), Netball South Africa (NSA) and South African Rugby Union (SARU) and I am duly assessing their performance in relation the steps each of these federations have taken to meet their own set targets to achieve transformation goals. The outcome of the review will place me in a position to rescind or sustain the penalties. I will also review the Ministerial directive issued to the South African Football Association (SAFA) as a consequence of their poor drive to penetrate and roll-out football in former model C schools and private schools. I will further examine the extent to which the Commission for Gender Equality inquiry into women related challenges and its own findings that SAFA had to consider and implement. It is my intention to announce my decision after reviewing the performance of the abovementioned federations on the occasion of the announcement of the fourth report by the EPG on Transformation in Sport. On the same occasion I will be signing Memoranda of Agreements with Basketball South Africa (BSA), Hockey South Africa (HSA), Table Tennis South Africa (TTSA), Tennis South Africa (TSA), Swimming South Africa (SSA) and Volley Ball South Africa (VSA).

Ministers Foreword INTRODUCTION
All spheres of Government are implored to revisit previous EPG recommendations as they specifically relate to the work that needs to be undertaken by the public sector. These include, among others: • Establishment of a mechanism for assigning responsibility for ensuring effective responses to the EPG findings and recommendations. • Ensuring that all components of the sport system; National and Provincial sport federations have transformations plans; Provincial and Local government sport, National, Provincial and sport federations, clubs, school sport structures, SASCOC, and National Lottery Distribution Agency have sport related transformation strategies and plans in place. • Ensuring that all funding structures (Government, National Lottery Distribution Agency, Sport Trust) make funding available for Transformation Charter specific objectives and EPG audit outcomes on a coordinated basis based on agreed criteria. • Establishing a mechanism for coordinated funding from the Department of Sport and Recreation South Africa (SRSA), National Lottery Distribution Agency and the Sport Trust to specifically increase participating number of schools, organisers, coaches, categorised under age teams, and competitions in key districts. •
Reviewing cost beneficial impact of government funding (National Provincial and Local) relative to number of participating schools, number of teachers involved, number of participating underage teams, leagues and facilities.
• Establishing a ‘school sport participation map’ reflecting participation profiles per school per province, district and municipal areas has issued the Director-General to convene a Special Heads of Departments meeting (HEADCOM) to consider the EPG Report implications on the recommendations pertaining to Government. These include but are not limited to school sport, club development, funding for sport and facilities. I end by expressing a word of gratitude to the Director-General, Mr Alec Moemi, Dr Willie Basson and his team for guiding and steering this process. A word of appreciation to the EPG on Transformation in Sport for the sound advice and good work over the past 4 years.

PERSONS GROUP 2015 | 2016 EPG EMINENT Deputy Transformation Chairperson Status Statement Report 2015 | 2016
STATEMENT VICE CHAIRPERSON OF THE TRANSFORMATION COMMISSION (EPG) On behalf of the Eminent Persons Group on Transformation in Sport, it is a pleasure to present the 2015/16 Sport’s Transformation Status report, the fourth since the appointment of this body in 2012.The EPG transformation status reports to date have been the result of carefully consideredprocesses and conceptualisation of transformation, mindful of the fact that there have been numerous efforts that preceded this intervention and therefore its comprehensive nature is meant to bring about a deeper understanding of the process. Inequality has many dimensions. There is inequality at the top, the share of income grabbed by a small percentage of people and inequality at the bottom, the number of people in poverty, and the depth of poverty. There are inequalities in health and in access to education as well as gender inequities, childhood deprivations and perhaps most important of all there is equality of opportunity. The inequalities listed are related in that they essentially ensure that there will not be equality of opportunity. High level of inequality of opportunity simply means that those that weren’t born of parents of means have little chance of living up to their potential. The linkage be-
Ms Ria Ledwaba
tween inequality and poverty cannot be ignored and is an increasingly important issue in dealing with equality of opportunity in sport related transformation processes.
Transformation can be seen as a process that ’creates space in which dialogue and contestations is truly possible, in which new ways of being are constantly explored and created and rejected and in which change is unpredictable but the idea of change is constant’. Social justice is a core fundamental value of South Africa’s constitutional democracy, and it has been argued that the other constitutional values of ‘human dignity, equality, freedom, accountability, responsiveness and openness’ should be used side by side, or even interactively, to achieve the goal of social transformation. The National Development Plan emphasises that the fostering of constitutional values is critical to ensure that the country is able to emerge with a new identity rooted in the Constitution. The extent and rate of progress towards the attainment of social justice are therefore important measures. Sport’s Transformation Charter, adopted at a National Sport and Recreation Indaba in November 2011 grounded in the principles of access, equality and fairness is guiding the sport system through a change process in key strategic areas namely equitable participation opportunity, skill and capability development, structured demographic change on and off the field of play, performance on and off the field of play, nominated governance principles, and economic empowerment as part of sport’s social contribution to society. The mandate of the EPG is to ensure the implementation of the Charter. The annual systematic and comprehensive annual evaluations of transformation status provide the basis for targeted intervention by national and provincial Departments of Sport and Recreation and Basic Education, national and provincial sport federation structures, SASCOC and other stakeholders. A number of factors impacting transformation rate and extent have been identified since inception of the process. A major constraining factor for more effective ‘bottom up’ transformation is, without any doubt, the suboptimal coordination and alignment of activities within and between national, provincial and local government sport and education structures and national and provincial sport federation structures at foundation (school and club) level.

Deputy Chairperson Statement INTRODUCTION
A major weakness, which together with the urgent need to resolve the existing and future need for sport facilities together with the absence of an effective coordinating platform to orchestrate and oversee the implementation of integrated and aligned school sport related strategies, have been repeatedly highlighted over the past three years. The transformation reports published to date confirms the slow rate and limited extent of transformation within a number of sport federations as measured in terms of the demographic and access dimensions of the Transformation Charter. Quantification of the situation strongly suggests that some federations are caught up in a downward sustainability cycle as a result of a reliance on a prominently white ageing population. The Barometer initiative introduced during 2016 had a major impact on changing federation attitude towards transformation.
The project recognised that transformation constraints differ from federation to federation and that once
the reasons for change is acknowledged, individual federations are best equipped to determine the extent and rate of change required. The project resulted in a more accountable and code specific approach in that federations set their own baseline targets in selected Charter dimension and forecasted performance levels therein over the next five years. Without the continued and unwavering support of the minister of sport and recreation, Mr Fikile Mbalula, the director general of sport, Mr Alec Moemi and the cooperation of SASCOC and various national and provincial sport federations this and previous products would simply not have been possible.

a prescribed ‘quota’ at the time has proven to be largely ineffectual and counterproductive in many instances. Some of the negative consequences associated with this approach were: – A divided sport community engaging each other on issues related to merit selection, reverse discrimination, and human rights priciples. – ‘Black’ players taken up in national teams becoming stigmatised and labelled as ‘tokens ’not without consequential damage and – Coloured and Indian representation in some national teams improving at the expense of black African representation, increasing the ‘equality of opportunity’ gap for black African sport people. For the greater part of the past 20 years the moral reasons for transformation have dominated the debate resulting an imbalance in emphasis between the two transformation driving forces in sport. EPG audit reports have consistently emphasised the importance of the impact of demographic changes in South African society and the longer term impact thereof on the sustainability of sport. The result is that after more than 20 years,

It is foreseen that the barometer process will improve on the The project led to a more accountable and code specific approach with each federation setting its own baseline targets in selected Charter dimensions and then forecasting performance levels therein over the next five years. This arrangement was formalised in a confidential Memorandum of Agreement between the Ministry SASCOC and the original five pilot codes athletics, cricket, football, netball and rugby, in May 2016. In terms of the agreement the five federations set baseline targets and forecasted performance levels as part of a ‘Barometer’ in transformation dimensions related to access and demographic change over the period 2015 to 2019. The Access dimension related to the number of participating primary, senior schools, clubs and club members whereas the demographic dimension related to the demographic profiles of national administration structures, senior and underage representative national male and female entities, all nationally accredited male and female coaches and referees/umpires and accredited medical and scientific support staff assigned to national senior and underage teams and individuals. In addition, federations had to submit action plans taking into account the findings and recommendations of EPG audit reports and the gaps uncovered annually between forecast and actual barometer

Attempts by federations to create ‘transformation performance comfort zones’ with the objective not to fall foul of Ministerial punitive actions as opposed to improving accessibility and demographic change, will be counterproductive to the objective of progressively accelerating the rate of change in key strategic areas visibly across the board. Federation barometer processes, if not driven by a leadership component focused on planned intervention and the ultimate objectives of the transformation process, is most likely to lead to reduced impact on the rate of transformation.

of the process. The result was that the level of insight into and awareness of transformation status deeper down into the bowls of federations was limited which promoted a ‘business as usual’ approach. The annual data collection processes in some instances became mechanical and seen as just another one of those tasks that had to be completed as quickly as possible. Against this background and below average levels of leadership scrutiny, oversight and commitment inevitably contributed to the submission of unreliable and suboptimal quality data sets. In this part of the 2015 audit report data submitted by federations is commented on a federation specific basis with the purpose of providing leadership with a platform for wider, more intensive and related debate on a federation’s transformation status submitted by their federation in selected Transformation Charter dimensions. This will allow for more effective multi-level internal evaluation of the quality and reliability of data submitted to the EPG and more importantly provide for a mechanism enabling more collective introspection and constructive debate on current transformation status in specific areas. The intention is to promote greater leadership involvement and the evolvement of more structured federation specific transformation strategies, programmes and interventions that will impact the rate and

Selected Observations • Data provided were incomplete and possibly unreliable because of the absence of effective provincial coordination structures to deal with data collection processes. •
The size of football’s club structures, the shape of its provincial structures compared to that of other federations and the quality of the data provided amplifies the magnitude of football’s structural challenges at the lower end of its pipeline. Together with the existing school structures special interventions at higher levels of intensity may be needed.

Selected Observations • Although quality of data submitted is better than that submitted by most other federations there are gaps and question marks which may affect the use of the data to plan primary (and senior school) in cricket participation on a more informed basis. •
There is a substantial discrepancy (700%) between the number of participating schools reported in this section of the data sheet, 239, and the data reported in the ‘footprint’ part of the report, 2086, which reflects on the credibility of school related data indicating a possible disconnect between the data sources used.

Selected Observations • No data was submitted for the Preferential Procurement and Employment Equity Charter dimensions which raises uncomfortable questions related to hockey’s commitment to fulfill in the requirements of the transformation process as described in the Charter and the EPG audits. • It is important that policies and processes are in place to ensure that data collection processes are taking place in a disciplined manner and that leadership accepts the responsibility of verifying the reliability of data submitted. • The fact that no data was submitted for the Preferential Procurement and Employment Equity dimensions do not reflect well. • Leadership may have to review attitudes and support for transformation (change) in all hockey structures.

level may be higher than that of most other codes. Reliability of data may have to be subjected to more detailed scrutiny. • The reliability of the data in the light of conflicting data in two sources (Footprint and School Profiles) which differs substantially is questionable. For primary schools the two sources reflect number of participating schools as 8652 vs 7804 and for senior schools as 7475 vs 6430. Quality of school netball school data passed on to the national body needs to be verified by national body. • Structured and regular participation opportunity is constrained as a result of inadequate number of facilities, average of less than one (0.2) for primary schools and 0.5 for senior schools. A comprehensive prioritized facility plan outlining the existing shortfall and the projected need over the next 10 years prioritized down to district and municipality level may have to be treated as a priority activity. • The strategic reality that 84% of under 18-year-old South Africans are black African and only 16% either white, coloured or Indian can only be addressed through equitable participation opportunity across the board at school level. • A concern should be that the number of primary schools that have stopped,200, participating in netball far outweighs the number of new participating primary schools,94. The corresponding figures for senior schools are 83 that have stopped participating and 54 new participating senior schools. The reasons for this needs to be established and a strategy implemented to stimulate structured participation growth. • The percentage of primary and senior school township based schools participating in netball are 59% and an unrealistic 100%. These figures need to be revisited and verified. Township based netball participating schools may have to become a more important focus areas considering the changes taking place at traditional netball participating schools.

Selected Observations • Reliability of club data provided questionable. • Data related to registered and unregistered clubs needs to be separated and monitored by Netball SA. • The small average number of members per club reported, 6, and the average number of teams per club (less than 1), number of township based clubs, number of facilities available per club (less than 1) may suggest a club structure in need of detailed review (if not already in progress). Structured intervention driven from provincial level and coordinated at a national level with the objective of gaining a deeper understanding of the current status at grass root level, may bring unexpected results. An appropriate balance of focus between franchise and ordinary club level netball is critical, the former should not overshadow the latter.

Selected Observations • Considering the importance of a sport medical, science and technology base in modern day sport, a structured national and provincial base comprising relevant sources of expertise and broad based membership and governance structures have become an essential component of any sporting organisation today. Most federations in in the country have gone backwards in this regard and the gap between local and international efforts are consistently widening. • The table above reflects a situation which may not in the best interest of rowing, as only 3 out of 5 support areas, medical, physiotherapy and biokinetics are covered. A structured a national and provincial sports medicine and sports science foundation specific to a code’s needs can make a significant contribution in elevating level of competitiveness. South African universities are producing increasing numbers of graduates in these and other areas that could be better utilised. • The current structure within the organisation may have to be revisited, restructured and creatively repositioned with a specific mandate to support rowing’s structures across the board.

Difference and accuracy should be investigated as a matter of urgency. • About 25% of the approximate 10 000 senior schools, the bulk of which are mainly in the urban areas of the code’s jurisdiction, have been reported to participate in rugby. • On average one facility per senior school. A detailed facility provision plan, as was the case for primary schools, needs to be constructed highlighting the existing shortfall and projected facility need over the next 10 years prioritized down to district and municipality level may have to be compiled and presented to government as part of growth strategy. • In contrast with the situation at primary school level the number of new participating (138) primary schools have exceeded those that have stopped participating, 244, a net

promising considering the longer term strategic reality that 84% of under 18-year-old South Africans are black African and only 16% is either white, coloured or Indian. In addition, only 5 out of a 100 under 24-year-old South Africans are white which projected to reduce to 1 out of a 100 within 15 years coupled to the reality of the mortality rate of whites having exceeded the birthrate of whites in 2011, signals the importance of developing the game at township level.

another question about the quality and commitment of the sport’s administration. Manager and selector data provided against the background of no participating representative teams, suggests an inactive structure. • Data submitted suggested that there are no accredited coaches but 210 referees reinforce perception of the possibility of a somewhat dysfunctional organisation. • The absence of a medical/scientific support structure further enhances the perception of a suspect governance structure. • The primary school data submitted suggests limited activity. Data contradictory in some instances, incomplete and suspect. Appears not to be structured and organized at primary school. A weakness that requires attention. • The senior school data submitted is incomplete and maybe unreliable.

The fact that the 5 whites out of a 100 of under 24 year olds will reduce to 1 out of a 100 over the next 15 years and that 84% of under 18-year-old South Africans are black African with only 16% being either white, coloured or Indian raises sustainability related questions for white dominated sporting codes.

• Swimming’s leadership may have to craft a unique and very specific strategy for the sport to remain sustainable, taking into account that the traditional white under 18-year-old human capital pool will shrink by almost 40% over the next 20 years.

Selected Observations • No sport medicine and scientific specialist support structure was reported for table tennis. • Considering the importance of a specialist sport medical, science and technology base in modern day sport the establishment of structures to provide support to table tennis at national and provincial level may need to be considered. • Most federations in the country have gone backwards in this regard and the gap between local and international efforts are consistently widening. An appropriate, sport specific structure is important to contribute to the competitiveness of a sporting code.

Selected Observations • Considering the importance of a sport medical, science and technology support base comprising qualified and accredited practitioners in key areas in modern day competitive sport, a national and provincial structure comprising relevant sources of expertise has become a necessity to enhance competitiveness. • Most federations in the country have gone backwards in this regard and the gap between local and international initiatives are consistently widening. • Volleyball’s specialist support group reflects only 1 medical sport practitioner, 1 physiotherapist and 2 computer analysts, both male. No female specialist support was reported. A structured and functional scientific/medical foundation in today’s competitive sporting environment, at provincial and national level is essential to assist in building a competitive structure. • Universities across the country are producing qualified individuals in each of the disciplines listed ready to contribute. It may be worthwhile to explore the value of such a structure for volleyball.
