Research and Markets: Revenue from English and Scottish League Football Clubs Amounted to £1.94bn for the 2003/2004 Representing a 5.2% Rise From the Previous Year

Dublin (PRWEB) July 8, 2005

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c20391) has announced the addition of Football Clubs and Finance Market Report 2005 to their offering.

Revenue from English and Scottish League football clubs amounted to £1.94bn for the 2003/2004 season. This represents a 5.2% rise from the previous year and a 9.3% rise over the year before that.

Income for UK football is generated from a number of areas. These include match receipts, corporate hospitality, broadcasting, sponsorship, merchandising, online services and publishing. Of these, the broadcast sector has provided the largest leaps in revenue for England’s top clubs.

Broadcast earnings for UK clubs from all sources increased by 3,520% between the launch of the Premier League in 1992 and 2003. However, in 2003, the Premier League signed an exclusive 3-year deal with BSkyB, which led to a small decrease in broadcast revenue for live rights.

The deal attracted the scrutiny of the European Commission, which suggested that more live matches should be made available to consumers on multiple broadcast platforms. This resulted in a compromise agreement in which BSkyB agreed to sublicense some rights to another broadcaster for the 2005/2006 season. The League also agreed that, in future deals, live rights must be obtained by more than one broadcaster.

The erosion of exclusivity arrangements threatens the value of future broadcast deals. However, UK football clubs are not as heavily reliant on broadcast income as some of their continental counterparts. In terms of match attendance, the Premier League operated at close to capacity across the 2003/2004 season, while aggregate attendances in the Football League are at their highest level since the 1963/1964 season.

BMRB Access consumer research commissioned for this report also indicates that the profile of fans attending football games may be changing. The upgrading of UK stadia and the glamour of the Premier League seem to be attracting more ticket-holders from the AB social grade. There has also been an increase in the number of corporate hospitality guests.

In 2002, it was reported that the financial stability of football in England and Scotland was under threat, partly as a result of failures to exert control on player transfers and wages. In 2005, fiscal discipline has become key to the management of UK football clubs. Far fewer clubs entered into administration during the 2003/2004 season than in previous years, and although revenue growth has slowed across the leagues, the UK industry is well placed to maintain its status as the most commercially successful in the world.

45 Year Old Wins $25,000 MaxForm Life Challenge


Orange, California (PRWEB) August 31, 2011

Competing in the nation’s most interactive online weight loss competition, Don Dona lost more than one hundred pounds and 19% body fat to win $ 25,000 in Max Muscle Sports Nutrition’s 2011 MaxForm Life Challenge.

Dona’s story rings true for far too many Americans. At 45 years of age, he was very overweight, had Diabetes, and had high blood pressure. He wanted change, real change, and sustainable change in his health, appearance and well-being.

On December 1, 2010 Don Dona decided to publicly declare his war against his weight by entering Max Muscle Sports Nutrition’s ‘MaxFormation Life Challenge’…an annual national contest with a Grand Prize of $ 25,000.

Said Dona, “I am 45 years old and have struggled most of my adult life with weight. I have yo-yoed for years ranging from 270 to my highest known weight of 350. The reason I say highest known weight is because the scales did not go any higher. I have been married for 24 years. My wife Darla has supported me through all my weight loss struggles. We have 2 children Donnie 19 and Danielle 15.

I have been a school teacher for 24 years. I coached football for 18 of those years. The past 6 years I have been teaching P.E. I do not like being a bad example for my students. With the help of Max Muscle and my new friends at the Max Muscle Rockwall I am confident that I will change my life.”

Don?s success has spawned a national awareness of Nutrition Plans and nutrition planning. Max Muscle Sports Nutrition has honored this interest with a new national 12 Week MaxForm Challenge? featuring a $ 5,000 Grand Prize. Don, as well as other Top Ten finalists in the 2011 $ 25,000 MaxForm Life Challenge, will mentor competitors online as they too transform their bodies through proper nutrition and exercise.

How amazing has his transformation been? This is Don Dona seven months later after winning the national competition, and keeping his journaling up to date for the more than 20,000 myMaxMuscle Community members online.

“A friend of mine and old coaching buddy who used to mow lawns with me called on Monday and asked If I would sod one of his customers yards for him. Russell now owns his own lawn service. I gave him some of my accounts when he first started. The yard I am soding was one of my old customers that I gave him. We soded the yard today. Mrs Jahn comes out and we start discussing how to take care of her new yard. She tells me that Don used to mow her yard several years back. We continue to discuss her lawn. When the conversation was over she asked me to tell Don hi when I see him. I look at her and said Mrs Jahn I am Don. She then said no Don the big guy that is the owner. So again I said I am Don the owner. We carried on an entire conversation and she did not even recognize me. It is still hard for me to comprehend it!”

John Hagaman, the owner of the Rockwall, Texas Max Muscle Sports Nutrition store where Don Dona first walked in the door of a Max Muscle Sports Nutrition store, has been a big fan of Don from the moment he first met him.

“When Don came in the store to talk with me I knew that I had more work cut out for me than the normal customer. Don had been given years of mis-information about dieting that I had to overcome. He had this mindset that I had to change. Within about 30 min we had him back on track and ready to do this. Don?s weight has gone up and down for many years, but Don has truly changed is entire lifestyle for the long haul.”

Don’s Certified Fitness Nutrition Coach (CFNC), Adam Gilbreath of the Rockwall store added more. “Don has done everything I have asked of him. He trusted me with his Nutrition Plan and supplement program. He was really committed to wanting to make the change in his life. No one deserves this more than Don!”

Thousands of competitors from around the country competed in the annual MaxFormation Life Challenge and its $ 25,000 Grand Prize. For the first time in more than six years, the winner was a Male. The success of this years’ competition has generated a new Max Muscle Sports Nutrition competition called, “12 Week MaxFormation Challenge”. Beginning September 15th, participants will strive to reach their personal goals by purchasing a personal 12 Week Nutrition Plan developed by a Max Muscle Sports Nutrition Certified Fitness Nutrition Coach (CFNC), journal their experiences weekly on their myMaxMuscle profile, and reach those goals in the 12 Week period. Every participant that reaches his or her goal, qualifies to win the $ 5,000 Grand Prize. The best 12 Week MaxFormation from those qualified contestants will win the $ 5000 cash prize!

“From September 15th through December 15th is twelve weeks and then the 2012 MaxFormation Life Challenge begins.” said Sean Greene, President of Max Muscle Sports Nutrition. “Last year’s champion, Don Dona, started his weight loss journey earlier in the year?in September. We only took into consideration the weight he lost from December 1st, 2010 through June 30th, 2011. We thought it would be even better to allow those additional weeks to be included in the MaxFormation Life Challenge which gave rise to the 12 Week competition. Now those individuals who want to also compete in MaxFormation 2012 will have their efforts in the 12 Week MaxFormation Challenge count as well. We’re about health and fitness 12 months out of the year, and people everywhere are striving to reach their goals year round. They come to Max Muscle Sports Nutrition to reach those goals.”

About the College Football Performance Awards:

The purpose of the College Football Performance Awards is to provide the most scientifically rigorous conferments in college football. Recipients are selected exclusively based upon objective scientific rankings of the extent to which individual players increase the overall effectiveness of their teams.

As prominent scholars from a wide variety of disciplines note, CFPA eliminates the politics and biases that vitiate balloting-based awards. Furthermore, CFPA is the only awards organization to receive praise from both Republican and Democratic White House officials for promoting objectivity and fairness in college football.

?CFPA is for fans and players demanding equity in the awards process,? states National Security Agency science consultant Amy Langville. ?CFPA has a clear methodology that works against bias,? writes North American Society for the Sociology of Sport President C. Richard King. ?CFPA may transform the individual trophy quest from a public relations battle to the legitimate question of which athletes did the most for their teams-BCS or not,? adds sports ethicist Gordon Marino.

Doc?s Sports to Release Big Ten Game of the Year ? Top Selection Which Earned Worldwide Recognition

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) November 10, 2005

On the heels of an 8-1 weekend against the point spread in college football, Doc?s Sports will release their Big Ten Game of the Year this Saturday, Nov. 12. This game helped the sports information and handicapping company, which is in its 35th year in business, become a worldwide phenomenon as the Game of the Year hit an unprecedented 19 years in a row, even moving the betting line in Las Vegas more than seven points one year.

?There have been a few professional handicappers over the years that have been able to influence the Las Vegas line, but at one point during our 19-year streak there were so many people that wanted to go with our play that the line was moved more than seven by the bookmakers,? said Doc Moseman, owner and founder of Doc?s Sports. ?The oddsmakers knew they would get so much money on our side that they had to move the line to protect themselves since all the action was coming from one direction.?

Doc?s started the company in 1971 with one phone line and big dreams. Thanks in part to the Big Ten Game of the Year and endless dedicated hours pouring over lines and statistics, Doc?s has stood the test of time and remains one of the most well known companies in the thriving sports handicapping business.

?We have always taken a low-key approach, and that is the reason I think that we have been so successful over the years,? added Moseman. ?We are always honest and tell the customer that there are no sure things. Although we give them the best chance to win, there are always unforeseen things that can happen. In all our years in business, we have never made an unsolicited outgoing phone call. If you work hard and do a good job, the customers will always be there.?

Doc?s has been releasing their Big Ten Game of the Year since 1972 and it is their strongest play of the year in any sport (Doc?s releases expert picks in college and pro football and basketball along with MLB and NHL selections, among others). Doc?s picks this game according to a variety of intangibles, which include many motivational factors.

?You look for things like revenge or whether a team has a morale problem,? commented Moseman. ?There may be a team that started the season poorly but is just starting to come on and have some success. A lot of times we will take a home team in a game that is the final game for the seniors on the squad. Those are the types of things we look for.?

Last year?s game was an example of how things don?t always go as planned. Penn State hosted Iowa in their Homecoming game and came into the contest as 3-point favorites. Doc?s selection was the favorite and the game could have been won a handful of times in the second half but the home team blew many opportunities to score.

This year?s game, however, looks to be very strong ? quite possibly the strongest Big Ten Game of the Year Doc?s has ever released.

?It is a perfect situation with this game,? concluded Moseman. ?The timing is right and it is a very emotional game for this team. We are expecting big things this Saturday.?

Doc?s Sports has been in business since 1971 and it has established itself as one of the leaders in the sports information industry. Industry luminaries from Nevada to Costa Rica continue to praise Doc?s team for its hard work and strong moral fiber.

Bandsforfreedom.com Celebrates its First Year of Operations, Generating $226,000 in Donations in Support of United States Armed Forces

OREM, Utah (PRWEB) January 5, 2006

Celebrating their first anniversary; the board of directors of bandsforfreedom.com and the Bands for Freedom Foundation spent the New Year’s holiday reviewing some of the many accomplishments achieved during the their first year of operation. Their initial task was the selection of a charity that would help them accomplish their mission to educate the public as to the needs of our troops and their families, as well as providing much needed supportive aid for our men and women in uniform.

Their selection process resulted in their choice of the Armed Forces Relief Trust (http://www.afrtrust.org), because that charity divides and dispenses the donated funds it receives in direct proportion to the deployment of the service branches? deployment overseas. Acquiring a strategic partner to help them mobilize the public awareness of this effort was also high on their initial agenda. They were fortunate to align themselves with Military.com, the largest resource website for members of the military and their families.

Next, they built a powerful website with a ?heroes page? that displayed photos of celebrities publicly displayed their support of this cause by wearing Bands For Freedom. The country music community and the National Football League have turned out to be the strongest supporters for this work. To date there are 81 photos gracing the ?heroes page?, including country music artists Rascal Flatts, Toby Keith, Brad Paisley and Sara Evans, as well as NFL stars Daunte Culpepper, Warrick Dunn and Michael Keaton, to mention a few. Bands for Freedom recently released a new IPOD

One of World’s Oldest Rugby Football Clubs Shares150 Year History in Stunning New Book Endorsed by England Legends

New York, NY (PRWEB) November 10, 2009

For College Club and Country – A History of Clifton Rugby Football Club’ is a stunning new 312 page book giving a historical account of one of the oldest rugby clubs in the world, with direct links to the roots of the game at Rugby School and a long association with Clifton College. The book took many years to research and covers the sporting history, as well accounts of famous players and matches of many international legends who played for the club since its foundation in 1872. It shows the close link between the public schools, local business and merchants and military men who fought for, and in many cases gave their lives for their country. The meticulously assembled book contains hundreds of photographs from the last 150 years. Endorsements have come in from many leading Rugby figures, including:

‘Clifton is a name that resonates through my sporting life, from playing for the school, and then playing the odd game both for and against the club, to being a long-standing member. It’s fascinating to read the wealth of stories associated with people involved at Clifton over the years and this is an invaluable record of the contributions they have made both to the game, and to the wider playing field of life.’

John Inverdale, BBC Television Presenter , Old Cliftonian and member of Clifton RFC.

?I feel rugby clubs provide a vital role in their community and the relationship between club and society can be seen in this history of Clifton RFC. It provides an emotional and factual account of the players and families who gave so much for club and country through an era spanning the two world wars. As the former head coach at Bristol FC I am most aware of the close historic links with Clifton and this book captures the spirit of what it means to be a club member.?

Richard Hill, Former Captain of England and Head Coach of Bristol Rugby.

Clifton Rugby Club was formed on 27th September 1872 at the Kings Arms on Blackboy Hill in Clifton, Bristol. Clifton RFC is the 31st oldest club in the United Kingdom, the 20th oldest in England, the 2nd oldest in the South West, and the oldest in Bristol.

Clifton have had 3 players gain international honours while playing for Clifton, James Arthur Bush in 1872, 73, 75, and 76, Hiatt Cowles Baker in 1887 and John Currie 1956-62. Many players have played for their country before or after playing for Clifton, most notable of these are two England captains, in 1955 Peter Young and in 1967 Colin McFadyean and the first captain of Wales, James Alfred Bevan, in 1881.

Today, Clifton RFC is one of the largest clubs in Englands West Country, running four senior men’s teams and all mini and junior age groups from under-sevens to under-19s.

For the 2009-2010 season Clifton strengthened the 1st XV team with former Bristol captain Matt Salter, as a player and coach. In the league structure for 2009-2010 Clifton play in the National 2 South league.

Authors are Bristol based Patrick Casey and Richard Hale both of whom have long associations with the club. The Club is rightly proud of the book which has been meticulously put together and features 100s of photographs from the last 150 years right up to modern times.

Richard Hale says ?Included are accounts of the many internationals who played for Clifton before, during or after their international careers. We cover the way the club moved through several grounds to keep itself alive. There are records of famous matches involving Clifton players and we cover some of the strong links with local families who have developed their family businesses in the area?.

Admiral Sir James Henry Fuller Eberle who wrote the foreword says of the book ?This book records the deeds of members of the Clifton Rugby Football Club which, over a period of over one hundred years has brought it from the enthusiasm and loyalty of a few like minded Bristol citizens, of what had once been the small suburban village of Clifton on the outskirts of the Port of Bristol. The record is not only that of the substantial contribution to the sport of Rugby Football that has been made by all the club’s members, but also to their service to their country in two world wars. We shall remember them?.

Newly Named Holiday Inn Houston Reliant Park Area Undergoes $2-Million In Enhancements In Preparation For Busy Year At Adjacent Sports & Convention Complex


Houston, TX (PRWEB) September 12, 2011

Just re-launched, the Holiday Inn Houston Reliant Park Area is in the final stages of a $ 2-million program of upgrades. The enhancements will not only prepare the property for the upcoming fall and spring seasons, which will bring events ranging from Houston Texans football, The Metropolitan Cooking & Entertaining Show with Paula Deen and the world?s largest livestock show and rodeo to adjacent Reliant Park, but are also part of a worldwide effort by Holiday Inn to update and improve products and services.

Formerly the Holiday Inn Houston South Loop, the name was recently changed to better reflect the increasingly desirable location. In addition to being the only hotel with direct pedestrian access into Reliant Park, the 238-room property offers six suites, an expansive pool area, one of the area?s largest ballrooms, bustling Sports Page Lounge, a boardroom with sweeping views of the city, daily shuttle service within a five-mile radius, plus convenient access to Houston?s expanding METRORail system with nearby stops at the Texas Medical Center, Rice University, Hermann Park and Museum District.

This phase of enhancement primarily targeted the look, feel and functionality of accommodations, as well as flooring and walls in public spaces. Key areas of change in the guestrooms, which feature two, distinctive d
