What is 4Norwood about and why was it setup?

Enlighten us please someone. The campaign seems to have a hidden agenda?!?!?

If you look at the "About" page, it says:
"The Club is at a defining moment in its 70-year history. The long-held dream of a home stadium looms - but it must be realized by a new president and management team to be selected at the 30 November 2013 AGM."
So, the 'hidden agenda' is instantly revealed on the About page.
Got it?

How about their team of 1 person?

It just looks like there is a bit of underlying factionalism, a little bit of chestbeating and this website seems to be quite political. Is there a bit of twoing and frooing for who will be President??

Maybe a big assumption, I may be wrong.

Anon, stop trying to stir the pot. There is no hidden agenda.

The guy behind the 4Norwood campaign is obviously passionate about Norwood Basketball Club and wants to be president. Why shouldn't he be promoting himself as a worthy candidate?

As for it being a 'team of one', I'm sure there are others behind the scenes who don't want to be publicly identified just yet.

sounds like a club destroying ploy to me. These kind of things while almost always start with the best of intentions, they never end well for the Club.

If everyone is happy you are not doing your job correct. That applies to presidents and committee people. Good luck to this bloke. Thankless task but rewarding.

Callisto, why would you think that? All I see is lively debate about the upcoming AGM. I would have thought it was perfectly normal for people to post more than once on a thread. What are you trying to suggest?

The problem is doing this so publicly you're telling your members and the wider basketball community that your club needs saving.

Nominate for a pposiion, go to the agm and the members choose the best candidate.

All this public grand standing does is damage the status of the club as it currently sits.

Change is fine but that's not the issue here.

How is it grandstanding? It's called promotion.

I say good on this bloke for being so passionate!

And whilst the club doesn't need "saving" - it hasn't exactly been flying recently. A number of issues need some work put into them.
Good luck to the bloke, or whoever else gets the gig.

#144, their 'team of one' is now a team of 10. From the looks of it it is a pretty impressive team lined up too.
