Support at senior level from club juniors (Vic)
Just paying attention to what people are saying around the basketball circles lately, more and more I'm hearing that clubs that are "smaller" get more participation and more involvement from their juniors & to a lesser extent general community at games (attendance, making noise, dressing up etc)than these "bigger" clubs that are playing the higher levels - Now obviously SEABL will draw a bigger crowd than YL1W or YL2M but Refer to the following example:
Club A has 120 juniors and 10 go to the game but Club B has 40 juniors and 8 go to the game.. Club B are more involved with 1 in 5 juniors attending the game etc
Won't name clubs but one of the comments I've overheard recently was... "Even at Clubs A & B at SEABL or State Champ level, I haven't seen a whole club like Club C so passionate and 'family like'.. Its great, I've never been apart of something like this"
Is this a one off sort of club or has anyone else noticed this?
I'm interested to see if anyone else has heard the same or opposite or even witnessed two comparisons?
