Attendances!!!
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

Central League, in particular, is of a good standard and yet the crowds, sorry attendances, are PATHETIC.

BIG QUESTION: How do we get more people to turn up?

Any ideas??

Winning the CL gives the team bragging rights.

Maybe put in a prize for the winner and maybe clubs will give their teams more support, so that the club gets more money, benficial of the members.

One of the main problems is that a large portion of the potential spectator base are playing games themselves in lower leagues on the same day.

yep. my friend said play the games on Sundays but this aint full time football so people want their weekend (or a part of) in any case.

I would like to see some advertising of the CL games. After all, for Wellington, the only mention of the games is Thursday's DomPost in most cases.  Am old enough to remember the "paid for" sports page ads in the old National League days. One regular ad in the DomPOst's Friday sports paper with cost split amongst all clubs might not break the bank.

What goes on in Napier or Palmerston North? Anyone know?  In Gisborne local radio and the paper, care of Ian Gillies, usually have a bit pre-match.

The skipper of wgtn utd 1st team provides a cask of red wine to the home team supporters in the grandstand.  It seems to work pretty well as most of the 2nds stick around to watch.  Most of them are students so I guess that�s not really surprising.  It also help in getting the supporters a bit more 'vocal' as some of the CL players might have noticed.

Liverpoolfan is right - I never get to see games at this level because of involvement in three games at lower levels each weekend (Junior on st am, senior sat pm and women on sun)
