Why don't BSA and SAC save the Lightning!

If there was private sector interest, then there wouldnt need to be a front page article in an Adelaide Newspaper about this and a campaign to find the funds. Generally businesses dont wait until they get ask to get involved, its really them doing so themselves to find someone A) they want to support B) Something that builds their public image.

Even with 1.7 million in the bank , thats not going to last long when you are running a WNBL team.

ITs also not the job of either BSA or SAC to run a WNBL team or own one. Their job is to look after the grassroots of Basketball in WA.

#589 is spot on. That is exactly how a formal fund-raising campaign works. The first 'ask' is of those doing the asking, so they are - and can show that they are - committed.

I'm not debating the pros or cons of BSA being involved, but #589 is totally right about the concept.
