Perth Wildcats lose major sponsor

Perth Wildcats face a major cash crisis following the collapse of their biggest sponsorship deal but have vowed to push on for a licence to play in a revamped NBL competition later this year.

Property group Saville Australia will not complete the final year of a threeseason "principal partnership" with the club because the company was struggling in the tough world economic climate.

It was believed Saville Australia was to inject $350,000 into Perth's coffers in 2009-10 and had an option to extend the arrangement into a fourth season.

Not good news. Perth is a great club and has a great supporter base. Hopefully they find a new major sponsor soon. Tiger Airways or Air Asia perhaps? They both use Perth as a springboard to Asia after all?

Who is Adelaide's major sponsor? Was it ABC Learning?

Who will it be for next year?

Looks like the Wildcats didn't pay their web hosting bill.
