The focus of attention should be on those who recruit and appoint the senior staff and develop the policy.Gary Mollerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12046982185323982734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25570835.post-1153376330703535802006-07-20T18:18:00.000+12:002006-07-20T18:18:00.000+12:00how do i get a job on sparc? man only have to do a...how do i get a job on sparc? man only have to do a 12 page report for an entire commonwealth games, money for jam. i recall the head of sparc made a comment something along the lines of our athetes werent aggressive enough, funny thing is our most successful athletes are the nicest people you could ever meet. <BR/>Throwing money at the top level seldom achieved much when the grass roots of the sport, the clubs are withering. Sparc seems to be poingint the finger for blame and then ruthlessly cutting off funding rather than coing up with any solutions themselves to improve things. Athletics New Zealand is no better, clubs should withdraw their financial support for athletics new zealand and call for its abolision and the clubs should then vote in a new body themselves that will actually serve the clubs and the athletes rather than teh administrators serving their own agendas, sparc should give the money to athletes they should be giving it to the clubs. how does a club recruit new members when they have no money to advertise?Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582374966270259947noreply@blogger.com
