Centrals - Can they survive?

Nito- from what iv read and heard, it obviously isnt- apparently the former JDO didnt do a good job (mind you, the job needs to be completely separate in order to do it well) and junior member rates aren't skyrocketing either.
Iv been apart of a club since I started that has been through the losing streaks, bagged for being "shit" and "crap". It wasn't until programs like the one previously mentioned that were inplemented as part of the club itself, along with other intitiatives, that it began to improve.

I would just like to point out an excerpt from the BASA website about Aussie Hoops, a program which is already dedicated to grass roots basketball and increasing junior participation. I know from experience and hard work that this has helped a certain club reach great heights in this area:

The program is designed to:

Be safe

Gradually build confidence

Emphasize involvement

Develop healthy lifestyles

Develop a relationship between elite and grass roots basketball

Create a positive outlook on physical activity

Be enjoyable for players, teachers, parents and coaches

Be easy to implement

Adapt to any locality

Im sure with the last point, that then it should be able to starplex's locality.
Centrals need to start from the bottom and work their way up, instead of diving in and fixing the problem in the wonrg places.

its not a matter of them being dropped, but a matter of Centrals being able to field a womens teams. Should they not be able to field a team (as was the case with Riverland), then they will not be allowed to compete in just the mens.

i would rather management spend their time on getting programs out on time, than dealing with individual cases of gripes.

Great concept tho, but i don't think were ready for it.

back to the topic, Riverland Raiders had to pull out of the ABL due to a lack of a women's team.

What do centrals need to do to ensure this doesn't happen?

how about the infamous $25 club fees for your first season, i think that practise is immoral. How many clubs are guilty of this?
