Mornington possible No Big V teams

MP & Happy Days sounds like time to draw a line in the sand . Time to make difference stop the talk and do something create at coup' action speak louder than words.

Re Mornington Peninsula's last comment, replace Breakers with Blues, and the same thing is happening.

Agree #296 - Mornington domestic fees definitely the highest around. Money being spent in the junior rep level-hearing around that the presentation event for the juniors is going to cost in the thousand double digit price range and a lot more spending has been done in this area. Surely some of this money should be used for pathway programs that all the junior could have access to in the future as well as the domestic. #289 Maybe Corio could have YL women as they still had Senior Men. Only Big v would know what the criteria would be. Sad to see people who have worked for this program treated this way.

Exactly if the kids and parents can't see something tangible to aim for such as a senior program them the juniors who are usually one of the biggest contributors to any senior program regarding finances will move ships, and in the end the very finances you may be thinking having a senior program is costing the club , will literally dissipate as you juniors decline

Sport and loyalty don`t mix and never have. It is romantic and a great story. If you are not watching your back and looking out for yourself you will get burnt.


Obviously sprouted by someone who's never given loyalty respect and honesty to any club.
My kid stuck by the club they chose right through juniors going from 1st sides to 4th sides to 2nd sides and bumped back to thirds when their were clearly players that should never have even hit the first sides but did so purely because of the parents. We're are all those that took my kids spot now...... With the exception of two who never even played the same position not one single one went past un18s, my kid has gone on to play state, national and now international, all thanks to hard work , honesty , respect and loyalty, don't ever discount those attributes, especially in sport as it takes a long time to reach the top, and to stay there is very hard, it will take all of those life skills to keep you there not just talent

077 _ Congratulations you have brought your son up well. We are really into the silly season now with coaches not getting what they expected and they just turn and walk out the door. in 6-8 weeks it will be the players - I hope my club is VERY careful with the 2 players they can take and hopefully they don't upset too many families. Some of the players out there are at their 4th or 5th club by the time they are playing 18's.

Well said 'Mornington Peninsula'

Mornington are similar to Frankston. People making the decisions have no basketball knowledge, and egos that don't have the best interests of the players and families.
