Your kidding Centrals district basketball club would have to be one of the biggest 'boys club' with in SA basketball community and only if your not a vital part of the small niche that they want to running the club (into the ground) you will get nothing done.

Centrals need to clean out 99% of it committee and start again. To many irrelevant people are just at Centrals so they have a perception of importance but are a complete no one.

ha ha ha,

if only it was that easy moron.

G-Train

You're right off track.

I hope derailment is not your real agenda.

Otherwise you would confront the issues at the club if you were concerned, help to change things for the better in an positive and constructive manner.

If you are your definitely shunting in the wrong direction.

You don't have the complete picture, obviously, if you had you wouldn't resort to name calling or exaggeration. (99%)???

That's done in the play ground as little kids.

But then again if you were to put so much energy into helping as you are into putting everything down, you'll probably do alright.

If you feel so strongly about it. And you are a financial member put your point across at our/your in next AGM.

Constructive, instructive and positive observation is what is needed to all issues.

Not just Centrals but everything about B-Ball clubs or individuals in this state.

I have not posted anything on hoops lately but have been reading everything that grabs my attention good or bad and some of the things that are placed on this site, it's embarrassing to know that everyone that comes on this site from interstate and Internationally that actually read these threads are going away thinking what are they on in SA???

Come on guys and gals help your sport to better things.

Why would I go back and bang my head against a brick wall over and over again? I have tried to develop and change habits that have grown into the culture of how the club is run and decision are made. This web site is a public forum and I have every right to post any disparaging comments regarding that club if I wish to. As long as I don't defame or write anything liable that may be construed as defamation I will not have to worry about anything I type of say, even if some sycophantic supporters of the Centrals District Basketball Club committee do not agree with what I have to say.

Iam not going to help that club again after it allowed so many positive people to leave or were never allowed to return and continue the cycle of mass destruction to happen every 2 or 4 years.

If your currently involved with the Centrals District basketball Club you are looking at my comments via rose colored glasses, if not and have never been associated with the club your more than likely never to have experiences the emotional turmoil that goes on at that club. The inter sanctum is not like any other club.

g-train,

dont know who you are but you have obviously had a bad experience at centrals, i have been with the club a long time & have been at other clubs as well but i certainly dont bag those clubs even though my experiences weren't fantastic. every club has its knobs i believe but you need to do what you can within your club to make it a great place to play. i believe centrals is a great family club to play for and i wont let anyone tell me different.

Thank you for such a glowing endorsement, maybe I could get you to write a letter on my behalf as a referee to any prospective employees.

You dead right what was I thinking trying to say suck negative things about such a great institution like Central District basketball Club.

You don't know who I am and I dear say I don't want to know who you are. If you're happy at Centrals then that is your prerogative.

3 things mate
1- I only ever played division 1 or division 2 during my playing days at the club and playing division 4 is something someone should never be ashamed off because the game is not about talent, its about enjoyment and social interaction among your peers but I worked hard and certainly enjoyed my playing time at the club.

If you go back and read my initial comments and analyze them you would have found out that I only bagged the running of the club, the committee not the players or coaches

2- I have never coached before in so to say my voice is like a "pig being tortured" is a bit of the mark and disrespectful but I wouldn't expect anything less than such a glowing endorsement.

3- If your so shore of whom I am please tell everyone who I am? (And in doing so please stop hiding from behind an alias of 'Anonymous'

Bitter, twisted maybe classless definitely not for the last point I am going to make I have not manufactured any myths or rumors that may be construed as perpetuating any rumor that is not the truth.

Don't ya just love these centrals post!

I do believe that most of the abuse came from an ex centrals person probably why he/she is no longer there. this sort of behaviour is not tolerated at centrals as im sure its the same at other clubs. centrals still has good sporting values and hey someone has to be at the bottom of the ladder otherwise there would never be a top

What gets me is that basketball is a nationally declining sport, some clubs have too many players and some dont have near enough, isn't it time people grew up and tried to help the declining clubs for the good of the sport.
Or do all the Centrals bashers really believe the sport would be better off one less club?
I know Centrals have their troubles, they got good people standing around watching and some real dicks running the show, not that all the people running the show are dicks, just some.
The hard bit is getting the good people involved. They see the stupid decisions, the wasted money, the players leaving and wonder if they get involved, can they help stop the rot? The problem is getting the support from other people.
The Office Bearers are prepared to put in the time and effort, but the people who need to change things aren't putting in the time. If you can barely scrape up enough people to make a committee, then you must put up with who you have.. unless you are prepared to stick your neck out and have a go.
How many of you bullshit posters just sit on your butts and watching other people make mistakes, then come on here putting them down?
Centrals is a club with normal kids trying to play a sport they enjoy. The kids look up to the seniors the same as they do at any club. Sure they want to play for Sturt, but Sturt is too far away and Mum and Dad probably couldn't afford it anyway.
All you knockers should be ashamed of yourselves! Perhaps if you are so far seeing and insightful, you should say to yourselves "Heres a club that I could help" and come build up the sport.
