Hi Guys,
Here is an example of how more established countries make some serious money out of the AFL Grand Final - but it takes a lot of work and ALL hands on deck. The Bintangs typically make in the order of US$50k from this function each year.
sponsors Qantas fly big name AFL players up there, and the Shangri La accommodates them for free.
obviously we wouldn't make the sort of money as Asian clubs with 10s of thousands of Australians in the area... but we do have the advantage of a captive audience (people generally can't watch it at home).
would be good to think about the future and how maybe we could raise enough to cover some of the cost of each years Championships campaign.
take note of how Saturday's function runs and think about how the Lions could put it together... a well run function would be beneficial to both the footy club AND the Aussie Bar.
Cheers
Rooster
