FAMILY FRIENDLY FOOTBALL
The recent FIFA Women's World Cup was a huge success at its venues in Australasia and world-wide via television.
The matches were called "family friendly ". The only reason for this title was the price of admission to the 64 matches played. Twenty dollars-forty dollars at Wellington Regional Stadium I presume for all but one of the nine games played and not a great deal more if any at all the other venues here and across the Tasman.
So with the pricing that low there were pleny of kids at the stadiums.
Here is the real cost of attending world class sport. Spectators at the Rugby World Cup in France starting this weekend have paid up to $1500 each per match per seat. The cost just to pre- register for a ticket to a Warriors home finals match in the NRL in a few weeks is $49.

REWARD AND NO REWARD
TV One has two regular sub programmes that rewards ndividual do-gooders with a $10,000 payment to do whatever with or simply pocket. The recipients also reap promotion and publicity for their particular charitable etc work. wanted or not. The other gives nothing but a spot on television and perhaps assitance of publicity and promotion.
In many programmes I have watched of the latter the difference between the money winners and the no-money winners is blurred beyond reason. I sit there thinking why didn't that person feature on the other programme and receive a sponsored cash reward?
Shame on TV One.
