to raise the profile of the league there should be either a weekly hightlights package or a match of the week kind of thing on one of the networks possibly similar to the Football League highlights show on SKY

if they had something like this league people who may have been unaware of the league will be aware it could only be a good thing

AGREED, it would be a great thing but very unlikely it will happen as the tournament organiser is hopeless, does not really have any true interest or love of the game and generally does nothing to promote anything (NZFC, Chatham Cup, Uncle Toby's Cup).

Oceania Football can stream highlights of the qualifiers etc but NZF will do nothing to promote the NZFC.

There was a pretty good discussion about this in another thread.

Search for it as it was interesting.

New Zealand Football needs to find out what the New Zealand Basketball has done right. NBL is being screened on Sky.

I suspect 2 things.
 
1, It doesn't cost Sky a cent.  Nothing else on a Wednesday night and my bet is that it's fully funded by Basketball and therefore free for Sky.
 
2, Historical.  The NBL has been shown for a long, long time and organisations feel an obligation to cover it even when it's played in front of a couple of hundred in a school gym.

How's my driving? - Whine here

Sunday afternoon maybe.  Need some catchy theme music and decent presenter.

New Zealand Football is just about to sign off on a deal within the budget to stream one game a week live on the internet, or to show a weekly highlights package on television to increase the exposure of the league.
