Sixers/Fellas Players & Profiles/Marketing
Attended the day of Junior Grand Finals at The Dome last Sunday. Enjoyed the games & atmosphere.
VERY sad and hugely disappointed that I did NOT see any Sixers or Fellas players out there during the day at all. (If they were, they were NOT prominent or seen by me). BASA did not even have these players available to present the Grand Final winning teams with their trophies.
There have been many topics started in these forums over the past few months, concerning players and Phil Smyth etc getting OUT in front of juniors and their parents at stadiums and events to promote the game and be seen.
Is it that hard to find 2/3 hours on one day or evening a week to BUILD a damn profile or at least make out you care about your paying public or future NBL stars? Such a tiny gesture would have been awesome, especially if these players talked to the kids, signed autographs and photos etc etc.
Ho Hum. Anyways I will still be at many of your games when I can.
Maybe BASA and the players try some thought on all of these issues and get active. (e.g. already tonight Isaac's idea re players photos in stadiums in another thread I saw, but why not also the female players, not just the males).
