why waste Underdale stadium!

Obviously people dont realise BASA has NO, NADA, ZIP, absolutely no control over Underdale.

There are no BASA games even held there, only Church games, who have new venues pretty much sorted.

Underdale is gone. Nothing that can be done about it. Abd trust me the government aint gonna scrap a multi million dollar land sale to provide a facility for 10 extra basketball games a week.

If the government demolish this stadium, I can only say what a waste of a good facility. Some of our district clubs operate out of nothing but tiny tin sheds. This stadium is excellent, particularly for ABL games as there is plenty of spectator seating and plenty of parking. BASA should try and do a deal with the Government to take over this stadium and some of the land around it in exchange for the land on some of their inferior stadiums. Just a thought.

Stats gury, very true re St Clair, CASA do run the stadium

Underdale is being demolished as the government has sold the land, and it is going to be turned into a housing development.

Is the Underdale gym to be demolished? Woodville do not like the Dome. Why don't they move there? This State can not afford to lose any indoor sports facility. Re; Saint Clair. My memory of that facility goes back to the day when the western wall collapsed. I am not old only ancient. I believe that St. Clair is run by CASA not BASA.

The product has never been better so what’s the issue? It’s not a league run by Basketball Australia anymore as the Australian elite male competition. It’s now a business. For some a very big business.

BASA has no ownership at St Clair, and only lease the stadium for the court time.

It is only used for lack of any other reasonable facility in the area.
