Perhaps the Association(s) decided it was more important to put the welfare of the children before results and forfeited their games at Wayville and Pasadena.

That cant be the case when only a few of their teams disappeared off the radar, their U/12 Div 1 boys having a decent weekend, playing well until the semi's.

sa country site

under championships on secondary menu

look under "draw" and then it has results / ladders etc in the usual sportingpulse set up.

don't look under results - nothing new there

why dont we use starplex and dome as the main centres - and dont tell me too far to drive
half the parent driving straight pass starplex
maybe its to do with the great recruiting network sturt and eagles have - bring the talent to your own doorsteps
surely this weekend has highlighted the inept sitation best a/c staduium in adelaide starplex not in use ??
rethink needed

As i'm sure we are all aware, the heat wave being experienced in Adelaide at the moment is the first in 60 years. The organisers can not predict the heat!

Great tournament. Well done to SAC

Surely the writing was on the wall for this weather? The organisers cant predict the heat, but suerly common sense would have prevailed for a back up plan ie Starplex & Dome!!!!!!!

Is Starplex under the care and management of Basketball SA? I suspect it is not and as such Starplex may not have been available at short notice.

I would encourage all Country Associations who disapproved of the venues this past weekend (and any other Country Carnivals i.e. the Senior Carnival earlier this year) to forward their grievances to the organisers of the event.

Congratulations to Murray Bridge for taking a brave, but sensible approach to a difficult situation.

Starplex would have been a lot better than Pasadena or Wayville, except that it is north of Gepps Cross

there is about about 7 days notice - of weather certainly indicators were it was going to hot
i personally dont care i was at dome - but conditions at wayville pasadena couldnt been good - as is showcase lets look to be proactive
was welll run nevertheless but think worth looking at continengcy plans

Spoke to one of the umps at Pasadena - the thermometer was 49 degrees inside.
I asked about portable aircons (you can hire them) - he said they had them there as well!!
