NBL records highest crowd attendance in 5 years

^what anon said

Perth crowd helps, but it was very good to see great crowds in Melbourne, New Zealand and Adelaide, as well as a good crowd in the Gong. No weak links this week, everyone turned up in the numbers they ought.

"They start playing there in 2015."
The season, or the calendar year?

Have we established why they can't go on a road trip during the Open? I can't imagine it being that much worse than the Hopman Cup, which Perth manage with, and there's no overlap between the two so it shouldn't hamstring anything too much.

Perth Arena is booked for the 3rd through to the 6th, which might have something to do with it.

@wildcats80: Melbourne will be playing all home games at Margaret Court Arena (capacity 8k) next season.

Possible exception of games that are on during the tennis, if they can't get a road trip the entire time.

Yeah whatever way you cut it the number is up and if you want to pick that apart i don't think you really care. I would rather an increase, however it happens than a decrease in attendance.

Regardless of why, the fact is last round was the highest in 5 years and that info well be welcomed with open arms to any sponsors/future sponsors.

Hawks numbers have been going up over the past 3 games. Last week was a shade under 3,100 but there was more people there than last week. Could have been closer to 3,200-3,250

So has the number of seats available, so it doesn't tell you much. Only really useful to compare with last season, but even then takes Vector/Hisense/PA combo to do it.

But that is to be expected. Teams doing well will always attract more crowds, but what is important is the average size has increased.
