    Wagering Strategy – Providing a Fair Return for Wagering on SAFA Events

    South African Football should receive a fair return from wagering operators

    who conduct betting on SAFA events.

    Over the last six years, South African sports betting has grown by 450% to

    ZAR39.7 billion at an average compound growth rate of 32.9% per annum(1).

    We estimate that gross return to South African wagering operators to be

    approximately ZAR3.5 billion(2).

    The vast proportion of this betting is conducted on football 60%-90%,

    with international football dominating domestic events(3).

    Betting on rugby, cricket and American sports (whilst being relatively

    small in comparison to football) comprise the majority of the

    remaining sports betting activity.

    Currently wagering operators do not directly contribute funding the

    sports controlling bodies they bet on.

    • 3 60% is based on the understanding that “numbers games” maybe included within “national sports betting statistics”, whilst the 90% estimate is based on national “sports betting statistics” excluding numbers games.

  • BETTING – BEST PRACTICES (AUSTRALIAN MODEL)

    Race field legislation requires a wagering operator to be approved by the

    controlling body for racing in each state, before it can accept bets on those

    events.

    Subsequently, legislation focussed on sports integrity (and product fees

    to sports controlling bodies) has been enacted in NSW and Victoria,

    however unlike horse racing, it establishes a nexus between

    “product fees and integrity costs” of the sport, and as such is

    commercially weaker.

  • BETTING – BEST PRACTICES (AUSTRALIAN MODEL)

    Sports integrity legislation requires wagering operators to:

    Have in place an “Integrity and Product Fee Agreement” with the “Sports Controlling

    Body” before wagering operators can accept bets on “events” or “category of events”

    conducted under the auspices of each respective “sports controlling body”; and

    Limits the types of betting contingencies on which wagering operators can accept bets,

    to those authorised by the “sports controlling bodies”. These approved betting

    contingencies will often vary between the relative status of events and categories of

    events.

    In practice, “Product Fee and Integrity Agreements” are enforceable

    contractual agreements (not legislative instruments) between the sports

    controlling body and the wagering operators.

    Sports Integrity Legislation framework provides sports controlling bodies

    with substantially more certainty, commercial leverage and

    enforceability than copyright enforcement (and other common law

    approaches), as outlined in Table 1 below.

    Infringement on “reproduction”

    Potential for extra-territorial reach

    Unless IPFA agreements are in place, Sports Controlling Body cannot undertake action under legislation and is reliant on regulator to action enforce

    Table 2 identifies four fundamental types of areas that need to be considered if SAFA is to develop and successfully monetise sports betting on SAFA sanctioned events. The table below uses Football Federation Australia, based on the Australian sports legislation framework, as a proxy for SAFA.

  • BETTING – BEST PRACTICES (AUSTRALIAN MODEL)

    The expansion of the Australian style sports integrity

    legislative framework into South Africa would considerably

    improve football’s integrity and may provide material

    revenues to SAFA

  • BETTING BEST PRACTICES (INTEGRITY SERVICES)SAFA as the GOVERNING BODY OF FOOTBALL IN THE COUNTRY

    Whether or not SAFA embraces or ignores wagering on its product, betting will occur,

    and SAFA will be obligated to protect and promote the integrity of its competition. It is

    important for SAFA to understand wagering markets and associated risks and have

    arrangements in place that monitor and flag suspicious wagering activity.

    Where there is money there is corruption.

    The higher level of wagering, across legal betting, opaque betting and illegal betting

    markets, the higher the level of integrity risk.

    SAFA needs to ensure that it has appropriate integrity systems in place to enable

    any issues or allegations to be professionally investigated in a timely manner.

    These include policies relating to governance and conduct of the competition,

    processes for penalties, disqualification, suspensions, fines and exclusions

    against clubs, players and officials, the behaviour of players, player managers

    and officials (including a betting policy and criminal record checks), scheduled

    release of match lists, match statistics and other information.
