w 2010/2011 Season ...

UPDATE! Feb 9th. 2010: TAIPANS LATEST NEWS ...

G'day,

The good news is we have reached our goal of 2010 season membership pledges for next season.

The not so good news is the NBL is continuing to insist we (and all the clubs) meet all their criteria for next season, and that means we need to grow our revenue (and/or budget savings) targets by an additional $400,000.

That task may seem daunting, and depending on whether or not the NBL commission will allow us time to reach that new target, it may be.

We have however asked the NBL to give us a deadline to achieve the goal, and have already instigated discussions with new high level sponsors, and organizations who we think may be able to help us reach our goal, and grow their business by association with the Skytrans Taipans.

We have already contacted a number of restaurants who do a good trade on game nights, and hope to be able to announce some great new partnerships this week.

We intend to develop some small business packages to better connect with, and support the small business operators who support us. We will continue to work in the community to earn the trust and support of the extra 1% of the population required to get us to put the “sold out” sign at every game.

Thanks again for all your support this year, let us know if you have a lead or an idea on how we can get to where we need to be, so the NBL has to sign off on our submission for entry next season and beyond.

Cheers
DD
