ACCOLADES for CITY PARK RADIO SPORT

I would like to acknowledge and congratulate your radio station on the professional coverage of the recent NTFA Premier League Grand Final at York Park.

The broadcast was both interesting and informative, I was particularly impressed with the knowledge of the presenters, they provided insights into the players from both teams. They had obviously put substantial research into the players and  past achievements of the clubs.  Also the history of Bracknell’s past sporting achievements was highlighted. In my opinion the commentary was far superior to that of the AFL.

I watched the game at the ground but watched it again on Sunday and enjoyed it just as much, no doubt I will watch it again.

I know many people, who were unable to make it to the ground, who either listened to it or watched it live streamed, and they were also very appreciative of your coverage.

Thank you again for providing this wonderful service and showcasing ‘grass roots’ football in such a professional manner. Please pass on my congratulations to all those involved.

Regards Jen.

TRAVELLING WITH COMMUNITY RADIO
Community radio in the Barossa.

Chris and Anne Sayer have been traversing the mainland over the past several months, and they are nearing the end of their journey. Chris recently called in to local community station BBB FM in the Barossa Valley, and reports here …

This station first hit the airwaves in 1997, and they broadcast throughout the Barossa Valley, Gawler, and Wakefield Council areas on 89.1 FM. They strive to be “The Voice of the Barossa”, and their programming covers the diverse interests and needs of the organisations and wider communities within their broadcast area.

I dropped into their studios on the main street of Nurioopta, after having listened to the station’s morning show that consisted of a diverse blend of blues and rockabilly music. The first person I met was the presenter of that program, Sandie, who was also the chair of the Management Board. Sandie described the many facets of the station, and how they are well respected around the Barossa with business support and a dedicated listener base. After just a few minutes, it struck me that BBB FM have the same thrills and the same difficulties that we have at City Park Radio.

Congratulations to BBB FM in the Barossa for 24 years of broadcasting – you can see the station’s website at www.bbbfm.com.
