Masters Games - Murray Bridge

Anyone going down to Masters Games in the Bridge this weekend?

Heard only five womens teams in total nominated for the five age groups, but mens comps look more healthier.

Only FOUR teams in the women and eight in the men.

The men look like locals mostly plus 2 Adel Masters teams.
VERY disappointing.

They've failed to promote it at all. Port Pirie and Riverland were MUCH more successful despite being more distant from Adelaide. Many other likely prospects in other regional centres hadn't heard it was on.

A great opportunity wasted.

could it be due to a little thing called clipsal 500 being on over the weekend also. I know a lot of people go or have parties over the weekend and this may rule out a number of people.

My Mrs sisters are playing but they are originally from there. They said they said they think it is all local players

Murray Bridge have more teams than Port Pirie had. They only had one local team and 9 teams in total. (Men and Women) Games were advertised through out S.A.Country Basketball plus other media outlets. I agree that the clipsal has definately knocked the nominations around but at least the locals are supporting the games. Well done locals.

Good comment MBBA.

Anonymous #121504, I think teams from other regional centres would go whereever if the were really interested.

Is your team coming then?
