(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 Queensland 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. 3 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.
