  • Stadiums Taskforce Report
    4.0 Stadiums Queensland Business Model >> Stadium Taskforce - Final Report 61 4.0 Stadiums Queensland Business Model The SQ business model is the way SQ coordinates and strategically manages its asset portfolio responsibilities. The SQ business model takes into consideration items such as SQ’s approach to market testing and outsourcing of services, as well as to the shared support services for the organisation and portfolio and to SQ’s role in stadium planning. At a venue level, the SQ business model incorporates SQ’s consideration and determination of the preferred management approach for each of its venues, taking into account specifics of the asset, the use of the venue and historic operations. SQ’s intent of applying its business model is to implement management arrangements that maximise the likelihood of individual venues and the portfolio as a whole, operating as efficiently as possible. SQ achieves this by employing a variety of venue management, venue operations and venue hiring models, in addition to portfolio-wide arrangements. Market Testing and Outsourcing As a matter of business policy, SQ consistently tests the market to establish whether services are more cost effective if delivered on an outsourced basis. SQ is incentivised to do so because of customer requirements (hirers and patrons) to contain costs so that attending venues for patrons remains affordable. The Taskforce understands that a majority of SQ business is historically outsourced, including stadium services such as ticketing, catering, security, cleaning and waste management and corporate business functions such as audit, incident management, insurance and risk management. The final small percentage of services are directly delivered by SQ if it is more cost effective to do so, or if the risk to the Queensland Government is more effectively managed.

    Media Release For Immediate Release THE BEST OF THE WEST TALK ADJACENT CATEGORIES, LEGACY AND ECONOMIC CLIMATES June 2018 – In the latest episode in the Marketing Dividends series presented by AANA, host James Hier discusses with three of Perth’s top marketers, the value of legacy and impacts of adjacent categories and dealing with the boom-bust cycle of WA. Joining him are Mike McKenna (Chief Executive Officer, Optus Stadium), Chris Singleton (Interim Executive Chairman at Cycliq) and Alice Manners (Chief of Digital, Marketing and Product at Cash Converters). As the architect of Cricket Australia’s Big Bash League, McKenna has gone from running a sporting code to a sporting stadium. “It (Big Bash League) has given me good insight into how to run a stadium as both are all about the fan. We’ve got to create a fan experience, it’s about creating stories that people understand and can engage with. The Big Bash League was one such story, bringing a big new stadium to life is another.” “As the stadium was only competed in late 2017, it presents the opportunity to start again in terms of infrastructure and the best modern design to bring fans closer and give them a better game experience. We’re competing with a high-definition television and a fully-stocked fridge with beer at home, which is hard to beat. Whilst we have to create a new experience, we’re conscious of existing legacies that stadiums like Subiaco Oval and WACA Ground have provided and there are elements of these in the Optus Stadium,” McKenna said.

  • WA Female Cricket Report
    The 2019/2020 cricket season has seen some tremendous milestones and goals achieved in the Female Cricket space. From Cricket Blast all the way through to the A Grade Premier Cricket Women’s competition, cricket for women and girls in Western Australia is breaking new ground every season. The introduction of the U11s Perth Scorchers Girls League competition, Perth Scorchers Women’s League competitions and the Premier Cricket Youth League competition have bridged the gaps that existed in the Female Cricket Pathway prior to the 2018/2019 season. We are now beginning to see the positive impact of these opportunities across the community. This season we have seen the first ever Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) standalone season with 3,219 attendees during the opening weekend (1st, 2nd & 3rd November 2019). We were also fortunate enough to host five high-energy matches for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup over three action packed days from 24th – 26th February 2020 at the WACA Ground, and had the highest ever recorded attendance for a women’s cricket event in WA with 5,280 people. Another season highlight was the ‘Shaping Female Cricket in WA’ Forum which took place prior to the season start, allowing administrators, coordinators and coaches of female teams and clubs from both Community Cricket and Premier Cricket an opportunity to broaden their knowledge of developing female programs, network, and hear from leaders in Female Australian Cricket including Belinda Clark AM, Leah Poulton and Lisa Keightley. The purpose of this report is to outline seasonal statistics for club-based semi-competitive and competitive cricket, as well as providing comparisons from last season to the end of the 2019/2020 season.
