Speak to your JDO

Speak to your JDO is a cop out.

No, I pay fees to BSA. Our money keeps them operational. Not my JDO. They should communicate directly. They count me as a member but anytime they're asked to do anything they blame the clubs.

Where is the info? Where is the details? The website? Why the change from a system that worked? That was fair to everyone. That has over 30 years of history. Nothing, zero, silence.

They hide everything to avoid accountability. They are a disgrace of a peak body.

And that is why basketball in SA is where is is, stuck in the past. (30 years of history..)

Change for the sake of change is stupidity at its truiest form.

Gibson failed for 10 years as ref manager.state has no refs. Solos every Friday night. Nbl1 refs doubling up at every stadium and many not even L2. Social teams forced to supply their own. Sacked refs back doing district out of desperation.

Now he's comps manager he's cut the tournament down to 1/4 the size to hide the fact he's failed at every thing he's ever done.

All of that info has been sent to clubs.
If you don't know and need to ask on a public forum instead, then I'd suggest expressing our unhappiness with your club.

As stated above, the tournament is solely for Classic and u14 Nationals ranking, so is relevant for Div 1 only.

#806 yep and look at the current state of district. You're doing so well.

#808 Come on that is unfair. Gibson has been a resounding success at gifting his mates jobs.

Yeah they changed it all. And its now worse than ever. Thanks for making my point for me.

And Mike thanks for directing me back to my JDO and ignoring my legitimate comments about why that is not appropriate. Typical of BSA.

His mates that stole money, messed the entire organisation out of fear, behaved like a bully to the entire staff who kept notes and were ignored despite numerous complaints, cost the sports 1,000s and have all quit or been sacked.

What a wonderful legacy. And the 2 CEOS and the Board do nothing.

And moved to Melbourne for power oh I mean love

Corry says Hi

It makes complete sense. Easy As is referring to the tournament seedings, not gradings for winter.

Anon, that makes perfect sense. You misunderstood the meaning.
Teams need to be seeded for the tournament, same as they are for State Champs. That can't happen until summer minor rounds are over.

Normally it's

Pool A. 1,4,5,8,9
Pool B. 2,3,6,7,10

Anon, no, because then team 1 has a harder draw than team 2, so there'd be no incentive or reward for finishing first. 288 has it correct.

If only the current Comp Manager was transparent and published all the details online like his predecessors we wouldn't have to ask.

So many question, no answers. Standard from current admin. Lost his assistant this week too. Things just going from bad to worse.

provided to all clubs at start of April were the specific rules including
