Dont worry, it took them 9 month to fix the floors at Pasadena.

You maybe waiting until December.

Utter waste of BSA $$$ anyhow with the shed being condemned to death in the near future.

north like south are a good sized club and long overdue for an updated venue.

if the current stadium has bio-degraded maybe it's time for something new ?

Go to Mars

Demolish it and Build a better stadium like Wayville,
ongoing costs waste of time.

BSA only cares abt $$$.
Terrific new courts at Morphett Vale were used for roller-skating over school hols.
The show court now has a nice dent (just like the good old days) and scuff mark are all over.

jack what sort of dent ?

I heard rumors of plans to build a new basketball stadium to be built near hilcrest which would replace the hilcrest stadium.

Havent heard anything official to prove this but worth noting i thought

New stadium not gonna happen,basa cant afford it,might as well go to Grove and setup there.All Basa think about is money$$$!!!No consideration for Junior basketball whatsoever.

So have I "The Banker" But that will be several years off you would think and surely BSA should be putting some pressure on the council to repair the floor in some form or other until then. Is there council elections happening soon??

is there a futures plan in place for basketball stadiums into next 20 - 30 years - like is any consideration gone into a long term planning study of over time developing key venues to accomodate - what isd the plan ?
south hillcrest st clair port all are in dire need - is BSA in discussion with councils SA Govt / Federal agencies to dev

NABC should have been at Golden Grove Rec Centre years ago, but as usual their committee choked on their own arrogance and made one of their larger bad blunders.

My attitude is most admin ,state selection,umpiring panel are linked to one or two clubs ,who gives a damn about the rest.I try not to go that tack but I dont see any evidence.That is only fair after trying to see or hear some clues.
All roads lead to BSA and they are the ones that need to get the political funding.You see I dont imagine thy would try say the Sahin Family for financial backing?If I gather the different councils own the properties well ....Rome was built faster.We see basketball stadium,the Council see rollerskating rink or Antique market stalls.Still fit for purpose?
Who is behind the Starplex Complex(no idea)?

starplex school and council community project and take hats off to them
brilliant facility best by a mile
envious of how it can work - goes to show it can happen
needs vision drivers and planning
Please can we get something happening - somewhere
need a sign

Rumours are that North Adelaide were getting a new stadium on the old Parks Community land but that sure won't be happening now. Them's the breaks, I guess.

PS. That was a joke. Given their close proximity to Mars, going there isn't a bad idea once Norwood and Co clear out to their new 4-court megaplex built with our money. So as a taxpayer, I build Norwood's court, I watch Southern's new courts get destroyed by rollerbladers, but I refuse to help North. Strange old world we live in.

moses has a point - if norwood go to campbelltown - north should persue mars

BSA are keen for a tenant at Salisbury.

(stadium is shite by that doesn't matter)

Golden Grove should have their own club in district basketball as they have a huge pulling area of young families and excellent facilities up there. North have been talking for years about moving and rebuilding but are obviously incapable of getting the job done. with Norwood predicted to be moving back to new facilities at St Bernards north eastern kids will flock to the red n blue instead of the red n white.

last thing we want is another club starting at golden grove.

salisbury area sounds good and north / centrals need to get out there walking the talk.

north recruiters need to be up at golden grove scouting with pamphlets, approaching families and knowledge of what their plan is for the future.

if a player purely goes to a club for the stadium .... that might last 2 weeks.

Initial impressions could be affected by the stadium but as most of us who hav been around for a while know..... more to it than that.

yes you are spot on with young families being out in the new burbs

Golden Grove Rec Centre??? Those courts are an abomination, I would hate to be playing and training on them all week. North should get a new stadium, or pursue MARS once the Flames move to C'town.

Mars stadium is currently up for sale.
