Review and the future of the Cornubia Park Sports Centre proposal summary:

Under the management of Logan Basketball Inc. (LBI), Cornubia Park Sports Centre (CPSC) has become the heart of the community and a force for positive change with Cornubia and the city of Logan. This has been achieved by focusing on four key elements of success:

• Delivering outstanding customer service and customer experience • Reducing end-user costs associated with sport and recreation activities • Providing targeted and positive investment into the local community • Developing CPSC into the sporting capital of South East

LBI is now seeking lease renewal to continue the success attained since taking over management of CPSC. During LBI’s management of CPSC, the local community and Logan City Council has benefited by:

• Savings to Logan City Council in not having to meet the management costs of the venue • Reduction in sporting fees for local clubs and schools due to the reduced court hire rates • Reduction in cost of access to sport recreation opportunities for community members • Associated event costs that Logan City Council venues charge that Logan Basketball do not • Increased engagement from local business and community organisations due to a not-for-profit organisation running CPSC and sharing resources, promotion and investment. • Continued investment into CPSC from LBI – (In excess of $450,000 invested into CPSC over the current 5-year lease)

The future vision for LBI and CPSC is continued investment in the centre and growth and redevelopment of the Cornubia Park Precinct. LBI views the precinct as a potential community sporting hub that could be further developed to become an example regarded state-wide and unrivalled in Queensland. Low-cost sharing of resources between organisations to unite, strengthen and build in turn uniting the local community and keeping costs down for families and the people of Logan city to engage in sport and recreation.

Association Overview – Our Values

Logan Basketball Inc. (LBI), founded in 1999, is a not-for-profit Incorporated Association with a strong connection with our Local Community. Over the last 21 years the Association has grown to be one of the pre-eminent sporting Associations within Queensland.

Our members form what is known within the community as the Thunder Family. The Thunder Family is made up of 3000 active playing members within the Logan region, over 2800 active playing members within our various School Participation Programs and a large contingent of referees, coaches, volunteers and supporters.

LBI caters for ages from 4 years old through to Seniors Basketball and participation through to elite level competition and pathways.

With competitions encompassing all three of the sporting facilities within the Logan Region at Mount Warren Park, Cornubia Park and Crestmead, and a wide range of days available, there is opportunity for everyone and anyone to be involved within our Association.

LBI’s success can largely be attributed to the three pillars that we have built the Association upon:

• Family (Thunder Family): Everything we do is influenced by the concept of Family and ensuring that every member of our association feels a strong connection to the Thunder Family.

• Professionalism: With every decision made or program developed, it must tick the box of being professionally developed and delivered. Our professionalism is our key point of difference between our business model and our competitors and has been at the forefront of our success.

• Progression: The application of the principle of progression to all of our decision making has led to us continually striving for greater success. We are constantly assessing our business model, processes and technology to ensure that we are at the forefront of our industry.

These pillars of success have been applied to our management of Cornubia Park Sports Centre to create a facility that is at the forefront of the industry.

The above pillars inform all of our decision-making processes regarding recruiting staff and building a successful team. The current team is examined in more detail below.

Notable Logan Basketball Association Achievements:

• 11 Junior State Championships • 3 Current National Performance Program Athletes • 12 International Representatives • Average of 873 Crowd Attendance per game for QBL/NBL1 Program (Highest in League) • Queensland State League Women’s Champions 2020 4

Logan Basketball – SPSHS Community Use of Schools Multi-Purpose Sports Hall:

LBI has entered into a 10-year agreement with Shailer Park State High School which will see shared used of a re-developed Multi-Purpose Sports Hall in the CPSC sporting precinct. The sports hall will be delivered by the Queensland Government as part of the community use of school’s infrastructure project. Planned completion is March 2021. The facility remains on Shailer Park State High School (Education Queensland land) 150m from the front entrance of CPSC. The school and LBI will share use with:

• Shailer Park State High School hours of use: 6am – 3.30pm Monday – Friday • Logan Basketball Incorporated hours of use: 3.30pm – 10pm Monday – Friday, 6am – 10pm Saturday and Sunday

The additional Basketball court in the CPSC Precinct will continue allow LBI to accommodate basketball association growth while maintaining CPSC as a multi – sport venue.

16

Community savings under Logan Basketball management of the Cornubia Park Sports Centre:

CPSC has remained a multi-sport venue that provides a tangible benefit to the local community through providing opportunities for the community to access sport and recreation activities. Ancillary to this, CPSC also provides business services to the community in the form of office, meeting, and conference space for hire, and grant opportunities.

Under LBI’s management we have reduced the costs for the users of CPSC. This reduction has assisted organisations become more viable and provided more discretionary income for households to use due to reduced sporting fees.

Reduction in Costs Based on Cornubia Park Sports Centre Court Hire Rates Average annually Casual Shooting Day Rate Shoulder Rate Night Rate Under Council $26,608 $132,668 $64,526 $155,809 Under LBI $19,956 $120,607 $54,260 $132,821 Difference $6,852 $12,060 $10,266 $22,988 Total Saving to the Local Sporting Community= $52,167 per year* Total saving to the local sporting community over 5-year lease= $ 260,835 *This saving does not consider the following additional savings to the community: ü Savings to Logan City Council in not having to meet the Management Costs of the Venue. ü Reductions in Sporting fees due to the reduced court hire rates. ü Associated event costs that Logan City Council Venues charge that Logan Basketball do not.

This has allowed LBI to grow the range and number of sporting options available for members of the community.

LBI continues to maintain a focus of our management of the facility to offer some of the lowest indoor court hire in South East Queensland.

17

Maintaining a Multi-Sport Focus over the last 5 years and into the new lease:

Since being awarded the management rights, LBI has maintained a multi-sport focus at the core of its management of CPSC:

LBI believe that through our management, strategic vision and growth, that we have moved past the simple notion that other sports are competitors in our industry. Instead, LBI look at lack of activity within the population as the major competitor and we firmly believe the key to combating this is to ensure a greater number of people pursue an active recreation in any given sport.

CPSC Venue usage by sport:

Number of Hours 2016 - 2017 2017 - 2018 2018 - 2019 2019 – 2020 2020 – 2021 Total Visited COVID As at 31/12/20 Badminton 1% 2% 2% 2% 2% 1% Basketball 40% 45% 47% 45% 51% 45% Casual Community Users 30% 20% 25% 28% 26% 26% Dance 1% 1% 1% 1% 0% 1% Futsal 12% 7% 6% 5% 4% 7% Martial Arts 2% 3% 1% 0% 1% 2% Netball 5% 4% 5% 5% 3% 4% Other 2% 3% 3% 2% 4% 3% Schools 4% 16% 10% 11% 7% 10% Volleyball 3% 0% 0% 2% 3% 1%

• LBI believes that the recent major engagement of Volleyball Queensland (2021) as a regular venue user (No previous regular volleyball competition at CPSC over the period) will significantly boost volleyball use in the new lease.

With the additional SPSHS MPS indoor court in the Cornubia Park precinct to be basketball specific, LBI will have greater court availability at CPSC to accommodate other indoor sports.

18

Local Business investment into the Cornubia Park Sports Centre and Logan Basketball:

While maintaining the Multi-Sport focus has been key under the management from LBI, the business model of CPSC remains: The user pays to access the venue and the venue uses these funds to not only operate the venue but also provide positive and targeted investment within the community.

This is achieved through ensuring the core elements of the business are managed effectively and having the basketball Association fund a portion of the operational costs of the centre. LBI has also been able to grow new business and advertising revenue for the centre:

ü Naming Rights Sponsorship of CPSC (Bendigo Logan Community Bank) ü 100% Annual Take-Up of Billboard Sponsorship (Waiting list for new businesses) ü New advertising opportunities created within the Centre to meet demand

Advertising Revenue per year Under Council: $2,100 per year Under LBI: $33, 960 (2019)

LBI has built a heart of the community model that allows logan businesses and Logan Basketball Sponsorship Revenue community organisations to invest in CPSC and also our basketball programs.

$140,000 This allows LBI to: $120,000 $100,000 • Continue to run and manage the stadium at low cost for users $80,000 • Offer affordable programs such as Thunderball in 5 locations across $60,000 Logan (Cornubia, Mt. Warren Park, Crestmead, Jimboomba and Daisy $40,000 Hill) $20,000 • Promote small business and community networking around CPSC $0 • Cater to all members of the Community with engaging programs such 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 as Walking Basketball (50 – 60-year-old), Indigenous Community (COVID) Business Activities Sponsorship Dollars Basketball League.

19

Continuing core business:

The core business of CPSC remains the hiring of the venue to local, state and national sports groups. LBI has added to this by attracting new business and groups such as cultural, school presentation and career education groups incorporating the ability to host large scale non- sporting events.

Regular user database:

Of critical importance to the management of CPSC is the servicing of our customers. Our customers produce consistent and reliable revenue that allows the facility to operate and develop. CPSC is uniquely positioned in regard to the service and management of the customer whereby investment and development of our customers in turn leads to an increase in facility use and therefore a quantifiable return on investment.

LBI is seeking the cost of lease per annum continue on the current schedule of $25,000 + CPI increase annually capped at $35,000.

The lease fee will not exceed $35,000 annually for the life of the lease. The 10-year option to be activated in year 9 should Logan City Council be satisfised Logan Basketball continues to manage the facility appropriately.

The following strategies will be implemented to continue to achieve success:
