With this year now complete<br />
we turn our attention to<br />
<strong>2016</strong>/2017. Fronted with<br />
more challenges it is clearly<br />
evident that the following<br />
trends are affecting our<br />
communities: a growing,<br />
diverse population; a housing<br />
shortage and co-related<br />
squeeze on spaces and<br />
places; limited resources to<br />
address genuine barriers to<br />
participation; rising obesity<br />
issues; and large pockets of<br />
inactive communities.<br />
MESSAGE<br />
from our Chair and CEO<br />
“Having Sport<br />
Auckland provide<br />
schools with support<br />
and physical activity<br />
before and after<br />
school is a key<br />
component that is<br />
required for this area”<br />
Sanjay Ramay<br />
Associate Principal<br />
Ponsonby School<br />
It is with great pleasure that we present the 24th annual report of Sport Auckland to<br />
our stakeholders. Throughout this report is a record of the work we have done .<br />
This year’s result has been a pleasing one for us through a year that has seen continual<br />
change rapidly unravel. While change is constant we realise that authentic success<br />
will be achieved through building, fostering, and nurturing strong collaborative<br />
partnerships. When such relationships are cemented it is easier to achieve high<br />
trust/high impact outcomes, mutual to all parties and beneficial to stakeholders<br />
and communities. To that end we have been indebted to our key funders for all their<br />
support, in particular:<br />
• Aktive - Auckland Sport and Recreation • NZ Community Trust<br />
• Auckland District Health Board<br />
• Lion Foundation<br />
• Counties Manukau District Health Board<br />
• Foundation North<br />
• Auckland Council<br />
4 <strong>Annual</strong> report
We have also been very fortunate to have had strong<br />
commercial arrangements with Holden and 2degrees<br />
that has been very beneficial for us.<br />
OVERSEEING OUR OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE<br />
IS OUR BOARD WHO HAVE SHOWN STRONG<br />
LEADERSHIP throughout the year and who have<br />
demonstrated full engagement to be “on our business”.<br />
Our board epitomises a strong healthy boardroom<br />
culture, based on good practice where active listening<br />
is clearly evident and there is an openness to change.<br />
The relationship between the Sport Auckland board<br />
and the Aktive board is very strong and both parties<br />
are committed to the changes that lie ahead for our<br />
respective organisations.<br />
OUR STAFF HAVE PERFORMED OUTSTANDINGLY<br />
WELL THIS YEAR. They have managed our stakeholder<br />
relationships with the utmost of professionalism<br />
enhancing the Sport Auckland brand and adding value<br />
to that high trust attribute we strive to achieve with our<br />
stakeholders.<br />
THE RELATIONSHIP WITH ONE OF OUR MAJOR<br />
FUNDERS, AKTIVE, IS GOING FROM STRENGTH TO<br />
STRENGTH. Their funding has allowed us to penetrate<br />
further into our community work which has seen us<br />
increase participation in sport and physical activity<br />
in the Young People space. It has also allowed us to<br />
work in more depth on club capability build with our<br />
clubs and communities so that these organisations can<br />
deliver their own quality products and services to their<br />
respective memberships.<br />
Our other major funders are the two respective Health<br />
Boards – ADHB and CMDHB. We deliver the Green<br />
Prescription (GRx) and Active Families Health contracts<br />
on their behalf in central, east and south Auckland. This<br />
strong relationship has endured for many years now and<br />
it is pleasing to highlight that Sport Auckland achieved<br />
all of its KPIs for 2015/<strong>2016</strong>. The Ministry of Health<br />
summarised our last financial year stating, in part,<br />
“...eight providers met or exceeded all nine KPIs this<br />
time, the same as for last year and one fewer than<br />
in 2013/14... other consistently high performers are<br />
(amongst others) Sport Auckland...”<br />
We also would like to thank all the facilities that we have<br />
partnered with throughout the year whose support has<br />
enabled us to deliver our Green Prescription and Active<br />
Families programmes from within their premises.<br />
The Foundation North funding we have received over<br />
the last three years has been instrumental in helping us<br />
to achieve our goal to revitalise sporting programmes<br />
in the Tamaki, Maungakiekie and Roskill school clusters.<br />
We also focussed on increasing participation in sport,<br />
recreation, events and play. Foundation North’s support<br />
has enabled us to remove significant barriers to<br />
participation and to increase the capability of delivery<br />
within the community, including the activation of spaces<br />
and places at the primary schools and in the community.<br />
We have ensured that our delivery of programmes and<br />
services into our clusters has been participant-driven and<br />
that all activity undertaken has been stage appropriate<br />
for our target audience. We have successfully grown<br />
student leaders and increased teacher confidence in<br />
delivering Physical Education.<br />
NZ Community Trust’s funding has allowed us to have a<br />
strong presence in the inner city school clusters. This has<br />
allowed us to create meaningful relationships with 16<br />
new partner schools, giving opportunities and new skills<br />
to over 6,000 students. As a direct impact of our work,<br />
students in this cluster can articulate their own stories<br />
around the benefits of physical activity and healthy<br />
living.<br />
Our cluster model adopts an approach where the<br />
schools we partner with agree to be the axis for sports<br />
clubs, programmes and network providers to engage<br />
with their student, staff and parent communities.<br />
“A great service, would have loved to have<br />
been involved sooner, wonderful staff and<br />
follow-up.” – Green Prescription graduate<br />
<strong>Annual</strong> report<br />

The use of a Community Sport Coordinator (CSC) in each of the clusters has helped cement a whole-community approach to<br />
long-term sustainable impact. The CSC is able to connect the various community organisations so that they work collaboratively<br />
to increase young people’s participation through schools, clubs and other various pathways. We thank all our partner schools<br />
within these clusters, in particular the Principals and key staff at each respective school who have fully embraced the work we<br />
do, help fund the model and trust us to deliver quality products and services that meet their individual needs.<br />
Our Sport Capability Build team continues to focus on helping community clubs with their capability and capacity issues.<br />
Using various strategies and sets of tools, including our Cloud based “Develop Your Legacy Tool” (www.developyourlegacy.<br />
co.nz) we have assisted over 30 separate organisations with a plethora of courses, workshops, strategies, and advice. We are<br />
indebted to the funding from Aktive and Auckland Council to enable us to carry out our work in this area.<br />
Our advocacy and influencing roles continue to play a key role in the sector where we have helped organisations unlock<br />
financial resources from decision makers for specific projects. We cite the work done with the Grey Lynn Pump Track Association<br />
as being one particular example of success with close to $100,000 being raised for their project.<br />
Our staff continue to hold governance roles with Auckland Badminton Association and Auckland Softball Charitable<br />
Foundation Trust. These placements are beneficial to all parties in the form of professional development for our staff, the<br />
ability to implement theory into practice and the assurance that up-to-date good practice is being implemented within these<br />
organisations.<br />
Our relationships with our nine tenants who reside in Sport Auckland House is also a huge strength of our set-up. Out of<br />
this arrangement we were able to work closely with Auckland Softball on the development of their new strategic plan, and<br />
a large amount of assistance was given to them around their pathwys and coaching succession plans. Lion Foundation has<br />
supported us with the Sport Auckland House leasing cost which has been sincerely appreciated. Their support has allowed<br />
us to assist our tenants with lesser administrative costs and has allowed us to open up our facilities for use, free of charge, to<br />
other sports codes. Organisations such as RSTs, Aktive, High Performance Sport NZ, Sport NZ, Gymsports NZ, NZ Archery, NZ<br />
Waterpolo, Athletics NZ, Netball Northern, Auckland Curling, Auckland Rowing, Auckland Rugby, Auckland Baseball, Auckland<br />
Weightlifting and AROCA have all benefited from regular use of this service.<br />
Our partnerships with our Local Boards in our region also continue to go from strength to strength. In particular we wish<br />
to record our thanks to the Chairs and members of Maungakiekie-Tamaki, Puketapapa, Albert-Eden, Waitemata, Orakei and<br />
Waiheke Island for the strong working relationship we have formed with them. Several of these boards asked us to deliver<br />
community wide workshops and forums around Sponsorship and Health and Safety, which saw an aggregate attendance of<br />
120 participants community-wide.<br />
With this year now complete we turn our attention to <strong>2016</strong>/2017. Fronted with more challenges it is clearly evident that the<br />
following trends are affecting our communities: a growing, diverse population; a housing shortage and co-related squeeze on<br />
spaces and places; limited resources to address genuine barriers to participation; rising obesity issues; and large pockets of<br />
inactive communities. Critical thinking around solutions to address these concerns needs to occur. Part of this critical thinking<br />
calls for visionary leadership and the assembling of strong collaborative partnerships more so than ever before. Our Board<br />
and staff believe Sport Auckland is well positioned to play a major role in this process, delivering on identified solutions. We<br />
remain, as always, totally committed to working with our local communities to continue to increase participation in physical<br />
activity and to continue to focus on inspiring “Our Communities to Live Healthy and Active Lifestyles”. We look forward to the<br />
challenges <strong>2016</strong>/2017 may bring to us all.<br />

“Tennis Northern thanks you for Sport Auckland’s contribution,<br />
very useful indeed and if clubs take on board this clearly structured<br />
approach to the ‘business’ of sponsorship in and around their clubs<br />
I would anticipate success stories (and some great case studies). I<br />
am very supportive of an Auckland-wide approach to all we do,<br />
including our valued RSTs”.<br />
David Frank, CEO Tennis Northern<br />

“I of course also want to re-iterate my thanks for the part Sport<br />
Auckland played in the recent club forums. We have regularly<br />
discussed the importance of broader, strategic relationships<br />
with the RST’s and this work was an excellent example. We are<br />
regularly talking to our clubs about tapping in to the expertise<br />
in their local RST’s and these forums were an excellent example<br />
for them to see”.<br />

MESSAGE<br />
from AKTIVE<br />
WE ARE ON A DRIVE WITH OUR PARTNERS TO MAKE AUCKLAND<br />
THE WORLD’S MOST ACTIVE CITY.<br />
Aktive has limited resources, in a city that is now home to one third of New<br />
Zealand’s population. We therefore depend upon strong partnerships<br />
with organisations that understand the value of collaboration with us,<br />
who align their strategic approach with ours, streamline their focus on<br />
young people and sport capability building, and who collaborate further<br />
and reach out to target the right schools, clubs and other community<br />
groups to achieve their work. Aktive’s partnership with Sport Auckland<br />
helps to support its work in these settings, and directly contributes<br />
to improved levels of activity with the attendant health benefits.<br />
This year has seen Sport Auckland make further strides in revitalising<br />
sporting programmes in some of Auckland’s most deprived areas -<br />
Tamaki, Maungakiekie, Roskill and the inner city - by giving sustainable<br />
opportunities to young people. As well, their work on an innovative<br />
cloud-based “Develop Your Legacy” planning tool for clubs has been of<br />
immense benefit to volunteers right across Auckland, and was rewarded<br />
with a specific Community Sport Innovation grant from Aktive during<br />
the year, to ensure it could be further developed for the benefit of the<br />
sector.<br />
Sport Auckland has always modelled a positive culture of advocacy,<br />
assisting others to unlock the resources that they need to fulfil their<br />
vision for projects. One example is the Grey Lynn Pump Track Association,<br />
who have benefited from working closely with CEO Mike Elliott and his<br />
team, and who have now raised close to $100,000 towards their project.<br />
Aktive would like to thank and congratulate Mike Elliott and his Chair<br />
Andrew Williams for the leading contribution they are making to a<br />
more dynamic community sport system in Auckland, including their<br />
role in planning “The Auckland Approach to Community Sport”. We are<br />
committed to continuing to support Sport Auckland in its efforts to<br />
help its communities to live healthy and active lifestyles, and equally<br />
committed to the shared values and objectives that will guide our<br />
partnership over the next 3 years.<br />

YOUNG<br />
people<br />
DURING THE YEAR SPORT AUCKLAND PILOTED A<br />
COMMUNITY LED SPORTS MODEL IN THE TAMAKI<br />
AREA.<br />
Through partnering and collaborating with key<br />
organisations (Tamaki College, Tamaki Primary schools<br />
cluster, Tamaki Recreation Centre, Auckland Basketball<br />
Services Ltd (ABSL), Tamaki Regeneration Company<br />
(TRC), the kids and parents) Sport Auckland identified<br />
the participants’ needs and developed a community<br />
strategy.<br />
Our insights and intel highlighted the need for the<br />
children in the community (primary and secondary<br />
school) to play basketball, a sport that had no presence<br />
in the area. Sport Auckland partnered with TRC and<br />
learnt that one of the regeneration projects in this<br />
community was to bring youth off the streets and<br />
connect them socially through “sport”.<br />
Sport Auckland’s Regional Sports Director (RSD) linked<br />
Tamaki College with the primary schools to create<br />
a primary school basketball league administered,<br />
coached and officiated by secondary school students.<br />
The secondary school students were upskilled through<br />
the Growing Coaches Programme and refereeing<br />
courses with ABSL. The RSD and TRC linked our Sport<br />
Capability team with parents and the Tamaki Recreation<br />
Centre to form a new club (Tamaki Tornados).<br />
The project attracted media attention and its outcomes<br />
were published in the local community paper. The<br />
project has addressed many Sport NZ outcomes<br />
including being participant led and increasing<br />
participation in the low socio-economic and targeted<br />
populations.<br />

FUEL4PLAY<br />
SPORT AUCKLAND PILOTED A MOVEMENT AND NUTRITION<br />
PROGRAMME FOR PRESCHOOLERS.<br />
Fuel4Play is a free movement and nutrition programme for families with children aged 3 and<br />
4. We have a holistic approach which covers food we eat, to how we move and getting ready<br />
for school.<br />
Fuel4Play aims to make healthy eating simple and enjoyable. Nutrition information is<br />
delivered through an interactive afternoon tea so children get to prepare and try different<br />
foods.<br />
The sessions then follow on with fun activities - session topics include school readiness,<br />
sleep, fussy eating, games and snack time.<br />
Fuel4Play goals:<br />
• more active play to improve gross and fine motor skills<br />
• less screen time<br />
• less processed food and takeaways - fruit and vegetables every day<br />
• less sugary drinks, more water<br />
• increased confidence in children and families to be active and healthy<br />

in light of the recent changes to the Health and Safety at<br />
Work Act 2015 we have delivered four workshops across<br />
various Local Boards to help upskill community clubs on<br />
the new legislation. This saw the total attendees amass<br />
one hundred which represented more than 60 clubs.<br />
Sport Auckland has assisted and funded the development<br />
of Auckland Softball’s new three year strategic plan.<br />
The number of club capability workshops that were held<br />
help to identify sports clubs who have readily welcomed<br />
the support of Sport Auckland in developing their<br />
operations of strategic planning, governance, funding<br />
and other club capability development strategies. Sport<br />
Auckland staff continues to work with these identified<br />
clubs to ensure their futures remain sustainable.<br />
Our online club development tool “Develop Your Legacy”<br />
has completed the pilot phase resulting in 20 clubs being<br />
introduced to the interactive knowledge library. Aktive<br />
Auckland Sport and Recreation have endorsed our<br />
Develop Your Legacy capability tool and we are seeing<br />
strong support from Council, clubs and NSO’s. There are<br />
currently 50+ active users from all areas of New Zealand.<br />
We have continued to work towards increasing in the<br />
number (and quality) of volunteers, especially coaches<br />
through delivery of tailored courses and workshops<br />
predominantly targeting community clubs and coaches<br />
at grassroots.<br />
<strong>2016</strong> saw year one of the ‘Coach Evolve’ programme.<br />

School in their second year of the programme as well as<br />
supporting Auckland Grammar School and Glendowie<br />
College in their first year on the programme.<br />
We continue to maintain close relationships with our<br />
seven local boards. This relationship provides close links<br />
to the sports clubs and the provision of facilities from<br />
Auckland Council to ensure all Aucklanders have access<br />
to the sports offered.<br />
We have continued to strengthen our partnership with<br />

GREEN<br />
prescription<br />
In February this year Edward Grant from Onehunga weighed 105kg.<br />
He had to lose weight and improve his health, but he needed more<br />
lifestyle support. His diet was making him sluggish, he struggled<br />
to walk without feeling out of breath and he was on medication to<br />
help him sleep.<br />
When he went to his nurse to get his blood pressure checked, he was<br />
diagnosed with hypertension. Edward also had gout which would<br />
flare up and make some joints very sore. Instead of prescribing pills<br />
and leaving Edward with the advice to eat better, exercise more, and<br />
lose weight, his nurse wrote him a Green Prescription (GRx).<br />
Starting with a consultation with Sophie (one of Sport Auckland’s<br />
GRx Healthy Lifestyle Advisors), Edward set his health and fitness<br />
goals, and began using his local gym and water walking. He started<br />
doing cardio workouts 5-6 days a week. He attended weekly GRx<br />
workshops, where he learnt how to read food labels, how to eat<br />
healthy on a small budget and about healthy portion sizes. Edward<br />
reckons this last one made the biggest difference for him. Prior to<br />
the workshops, he would regularly eat large ‘man size’ meals.<br />
Over four months, Edward lost 14kgs (2 belt notches), stopped<br />
taking sleep medication and has increased energy. Edward used to<br />
visit his work café most days but no longer goes there at all – he now<br />
prepares his own lunches and does not add sugar to his hot drinks.<br />
Edward says that “making small changes and consistency is the key.”<br />
His family and work colleagues have all noticed the difference in his<br />
size and his energy levels – some colleagues even thought he was<br />
sick because he had lost so much body fat.<br />
Edward is now using his knowledge to improve the health of his<br />
family – leading by example - he still keeps active with a stationary<br />
bike at home and accumulates activity during his working day.<br />
Edward says Sophie and Sport Auckland have changed his life!<br />

ACTIVE FAMILIES<br />
Sport Auckland began delivering<br />
an Active Families programme in<br />
October 2015.<br />
It has delivered out of two sites within<br />
ADHB, Glen Innes and Mt Roskill.<br />
Once a week families come along<br />
to an interactive session where they<br />
set goals, learn about nutrition and<br />
physical activity plus get active<br />
together. We have had a number of<br />
different activity providers come in<br />
to take them for fun physical activity<br />
sessions in both traditional & nontraditional<br />
sports they may not have<br />
tried before.<br />
There was a great collaboration<br />
between the Massey University<br />
School of Dietetics and Sport<br />
Auckland. Masters Dietetic students<br />
came out on placement to our Mt<br />
Roskill programme and ran a series<br />
of workshops for families. This was<br />
hugely beneficial for the students to<br />
work in a real life setting delivering &<br />
also very beneficial for the families &<br />
Active Families team.<br />
87 children & their families were<br />
engaged in Active Families over the<br />
2015-16 financial year.<br />
Families across New Zealand are being encouraged to<br />
swap doctors’ prescriptions for a new concept known as<br />
the “green prescription”.<br />
The Minister of Health Jonathan Coleman says 87 percent<br />
of families say there have been positive changes for their<br />
child as a result of the programme.<br />
It involves cooking lessons, and fitness classes as ways of<br />
tackling childhood obesity.<br />
The Falala family are one of 1000 families taking part in<br />
the programme, and after two months, they are seeing<br />
results.<br />
With three children aged 5, 9 and 15 Iunisi and Lisiate<br />
Falala used to opt for cheap, easy and often unhealthy<br />
food, but now they’ve ditched the takeaways in favour of<br />
experiencing new food together.<br />
“They may be more active, have a more positive attitude<br />
to life, they’re enjoying school more, and are more<br />
positive about the types of food they should be eating<br />
and the activity they should be doing,” he says.<br />
It’s hoped that as more people are referred to the<br />
programme, the attitudes of families will change to a<br />
long-term healthier lifestyle.<br />
