The year is 2020 and the United Nations, led by ex-Australian Prime Minister Kevin "Australia's gift to the World (or alternatively we just couldn't stand listening to him speak so we foisted him on everybody else)" Rudd has finally achieved it's goal of subverting the soveriegnty of every nation on Earth, through a tangle of interenational treaties that leave national governments with responsibility for nothing more than the provision of sewage and garbage disposal. Nobody is sure that the treaties actually do stop national governments making decisions, but they are so complicated and confusing that nobody could afford to run the court cases to work it out, so they just gave in and let the UN "look after them".
The first job that Chairman Rudd (Secretary-General was soooooo 2010) has for the UN is to correct the obvious deficiency in World sport, i.e., there are too many different sports taking athletic talent from the good ones. In true authoratarian fashion, Rudd decrees that all the mediocre and lousy sports should be banned and that we should all be forced to concentrate on the good ones.
There was initially great international enthusiasm for this, as it might be the only good idea that Ruddy ever has, and the UN has to employ 3000 staff on $80,000 a year each to read the submissions that flow on what should go and what should stay. In addition they employ 10000 managers on an average of $150,000 a year each to oversee the 3000 staff and to generally be responsible for "communication and risk management", a board of 192 representatives on $500,000 a year each from United Nations member states to be responsible for "strategy" and after a year or two 200 consultants on an average of $1,000,000 a year each to tell the representatives why they have stuffed up and how to fix it.
The task of WABbits is to write the submission that might most impress this bureaucratic monolith into doing something about the global crisis in sport, before the rising sea levels resulting from global warming cover the World's sporting fields and make this all academic. Incidentally, this crisis in sport come just in the nick of time, because the UN had given up on climate change and had to find somewhere to put all those staff who were working to mitigate it - or else they may have had to get real jobs (Nooooooo!). You will get bonus points for mentioning rugby union, baseball, ice hockey, pylon racing and women's beach volleyball in a positive light and will lose points for a positive mention of cricket, golf, croquet or any code of football that might compete with rugby union for players (thats all of them except soccer, but you get a cross for that for mentioning a girl's game played by men).
Have fun ;).
