Product and Entities
The brand we represent is the Niagara River Lions of the National Basketball League of
Canada who are new to the league for the 2016 season and all the entities that are associated with
the team. The NBL Canada was started 5 years ago after 3 teams from the Premier Basketball
League left and formed the league in addition to 3 new teams based in Ontario giving the league
6 teams to debut with and currently at 8 with a 9th planned for the start of the 2016-17 season.
The NBL Canada offers former NCAA, CIS and CCAA basketball players an option to continue
their athletic careers at a high level in North America rather than having to go to Europe or
settling for a lower level of competition giving the league more credibility in terms of in coming
talent each year as evidenced by the signing of 2015 NCAA Slam Dunk Champ Marcus Lewis
and 2 Time CIS Defensive player of the year Greg Carter, the league and team is in no way short
on talent. Being a new expansion team in the league the River Lions are poised to set ourselves
apart from other franchises in terms of success and fan experience. One major edge we have on
the other competition is the brand new Meridian Centre in Downtown St. Catharines built in
2014 giving our fans and players one of, if not the best, home arena in the league to come out
and enjoy a night of basketball in the newly developed downtown core of the city. Having our
fans heavily involved with the naming of our team was a great way to create immediate buzz in
the city and giving the fans a way to relate to the team through team and regional pride as the
River Lion can be found in the regions coat of arms making it a great tie in to Niagara.
Vision and Ideology
4. 4
Our vision as a team is to continuously improve game by game to put the best possible
product on the court to capture to essence of what a River Lion represents to gain the attention of
fans and residence of the Niagara region By being the region's only professional Basketball team
based in a city that is well known for its junior hockey, junior lacrosse and to some extent
baseball roots, breaking in as a new sport for fans in an exciting and challenging new experience
for the team and we are optimistic about the future of basketball here. With the continued
success of the local basketball programs at the club and high school level and the overall growth
of basketball across Canada, the Niagara River Lions are in great position to aid in the continued
growth and development of the sport of basketball. After a failed attempt to bring professional
basketball to the city back in 2005, the “Niagara DareDevils” of the ABA played 4 games at the
Jack Gatecliff arena before folding, not because of their play, but because they failed to connect
with the fan base from the start with almost no advertisement or interest generated. Learning
from these past mistakes the Niagara River Lions are thoroughly committed to staying in the
region and building a legacy that will last for decades.

Strategic Goals andObjectives

the game starts

Part 3: Developing a Ticket MArketing Sales and Service plan
Prepared by: Kyle Poole (Marketplace and segments #5) and Connor Diacur
(5 P’s of marketing #6)
Developa TicketMarketing Sales andService Plan
A marketplace can be defined as an economic system through which different companies
compete with each other to sell their products. The Marketplace for the Niagara River Lions
would be other sports teams, and events held in the area. The Niagara Ice Dogs are a direct
competitor to the River Lions as they draw a large number of fans, and have had majority control
over the market in recent years. Other direct competitors would be Jr. B hockey clubs in the area
as Niagara has many of them including the St. Catharine’s Falcons, Niagara Canucks, Fort Erie
Meteors, Thorold Blackhawks, and Welland Canadians. The area is also host to many Jr. C
hockey teams, but they draw much smaller crowds seeing as there are so many higher-level
teams competing in the area at competitive prices.
The Brock University and Niagara College sports teams also pose a threat to the River Lions, as
they attract their students to attend games and support their club. Students are also on a budget
8. 8
and attending all sorts of events is somewhat unrealistic for the budget of the student life. Other
Major sports franchise in southern ontario and even just over the border include, Toronto
Raptors, Raptors 905, Toronto Maple Leafs and the Buffalo Sabers. These are all some of the
most recognizable and establish franchises in the world and we can capitalize on trying to get
their fans who travel upwards of 2 hours to drive and watch a basketball game or a hockey game.
When they can just come to the Niagara Region to see some of the best basketball in Canada.
Jr. Hockey
● St. Catharine’s Falcons
● Niagara Canucks
● Fort Erie Meteors
● Thorold Blackhawks
● Welland Canadians
● Jr. C hockey clubs
Meridian Center
● Niagara Ice Dogs
● Concerts
● Shows, and live events
Post-Secondary Sports
● Niagara College sports
● Brock University sports
Professional Sports
● Toronto Raptors
● Raptors 905
● Toronto Maple Leafs
● Buffalo Sabers
The Niagara Rangers Basketball, Niagara Red Raiders, St. Catharines CYO Rebels,
Pelham Panthers, and the Welland Warriors are youth basketball organizations that promote
grassroots growth in the sport of basketball and showcase young talent travelling to host towns
for tournaments and games. This will be our first segment that we wish to reach, to attract fans to
the River Lions. Youth basketball organizations are perfect to market as they’re interested in the
sport, and it provides role models and professionals in the community to look up to, and emulate
on and off the court. Not only are we focusing on basketball fans, we are also focusing on youth
and creating a young fan base to sustain long-term. By focusing youth, it’s drawing the attention
of families and creating events for families to attend together. This creates a positive atmosphere,
attention to merchandise and increased snack bar sales. The organization could offer families
packages or kids nights to make it more affordable and attracting for all fans.
Another Market we would like to focus on would be the Meridian Center faithful’s, the
people who commonly attend events, such as Ice Dogs games and other concerts and shows. The
9. 9
facility could market our organization to the common attendees; seasons ticket holders, and
anyone who has attended an event hosted by the Meridian Center in the past. This would not
only benefit our organization it would bring in revenue for the facility and attract people to
attend events.
A market in which we would like to extend our product to would be a sports fan. Sports
fans generally have an interest in several sports, and would be easily tempted into seeing live
action if presented to them. As sport management students most of u would be quite interested in
sports as they pertain to what we are studying and what our future goals for careers would be.
With that we would clearly have a few favorite sports that we follow more thoroughly and keep
attuned to, but it would be easy to persuade me to attend an event if the intangibles were right. In
this area there are several way to reach people interested in sport, first off there are many post-
secondary programs offered involving sport between Niagara College, and Brock University.
Incorporating these students and getting them interested in the organization could offer jobs,
internships, and the potential to spread word of mouth and get students interacting and involved.
Other possible opportunities could be with gyms/workout facilities, arenas, sports bars and
sporting goods stores.
The organization's wants and needs are somewhat different to that of an established
franchise, as they have fans and accessible contacts to connect with. The River Lions have no
previous fans or established role in the community therefore having to build and create an impact
to attract fans. Needs for this organization are to create a fan base that is sustainable over long-
term and establish the team and organization as a positive influence on the community. These
needs can be met with community outreach programs, youth basketball interaction, reaching out
to the loyal attendees of the Meridian Center, and attracting sports fans along with basketball
fans. The Niagara River Lions want to create a winning atmosphere, as well and maintain a
successful business with loyal fans. This can be achieved by first of creating a fan base through
proper segmentation, which then leads to a positive environment for players and coaches to grow
and be successful.
We believe all areas should be focused on, but beginning from the bottom should be main
concern. Establish the grassroots, and young fan base to be able to maintain over time. By
focusing on the family aspect and involving the youth it creates participation in the sport,
awareness, loyalty, and potentially demand long term. The kids and families will grow up
knowing the players, team, and create an attachment to the organization. Allocate the resources
to grow the sport of basketball in the area, sponsored by the River Lions. Have the players
practice with youth, and host tournaments, and development camps. Offer discounted ticket
pricing if youth are enrolled with Niagara Region basketball associations. The frequency
escalator will increase as season and years pass by, as the programs and basketball in the area
grow in size, demand, and popularity. Families and youth will begin as occasional users, but as
the program grows, and demand increases they will hopefully become light to heavy users. This
is not going to be an immediate result for most users; the organization will have to develop the
program and created a connection to the fans.

flight” Professional basketball league. The Niagara River Lions are based in the city of
St.Catharines and are owned by a group of three business men from the Niagara Region.The

Product Extensions:
Players:
The Niagara River Lions attract the talents of former NCAA,CIS and CCAA players
looking to continue their dreams of playing professional basketball. Our players are absolutely
no strangers to winning and dominating on the court. We signed the winner of the 2014 NCAA
Dunk Competition Marcus Lewis who suited up for the University of Eastern Kentucky. Lewis
was not only a dunking stud but also played a very important role of Six man for the Colonels,
where he averaged 9.8 points,2.0 rebounds and 26.9 minutes per game. Not only did we sign
offencive threats, but we signed one of the best defencive players to suit up in the OUA. This
being the former Lakehead University Timberwolf Greg Carter. Carter was named CIS
Defensive player of the year two times and was also named OUA Defensive MVP 4 times. These
two players are the pinnacle of our teams fantastic roster of North American talent and will
dazzle fans with their performance on a daily basis.
Venue:
The River Lions will be kicking off their inaugural season in the newly built and state of
the art Meridian Center located in downtown St.Catharines. The Meridian center is a 5,300 seat
facility that was fully built in late 2014 for the OHL side Niagara IceDogs who were in need of a
new home. With this being said the River Lions are one of three tenants of the Meridian center.
The other two tenants of the Meridian center are the aforementioned Niagara Icedogs and the
Niagara Lock Monster of the Canadian Lacrosse league. The Meridian center is located in the
heart of the booming downtown of St.Catharines. The streets are full of restaurants, bars and has
a fantastic nightlife making it the ideal spot for an arena.
Internet Products:
The River Lions use social media on a daily basis to keep our fans and followers in touch
with upcoming games, events and giveaways on our social media platforms. We can connect
with our fans over these platforms with our teams Hashtag, #Ready2Roar. We have a twitter
account that we utilize to keep our fans up to with our teams performance during games for those
fans who could not make a home/away game. Also updates if the River Lions have made any
11. 11
trades or picked up any free agents to our franchise. We also have an Instagram that will post
“behind the scenes” photo and videos of training, practices, players pregame and game footage.
There might be setbacks with these videos we post being only 15 seconds, but that's when our
Youtube page comes to play. We will utilize our Youtube page to have a more behind the scenes
look into our players lives, this includes videos of a day in the life, Q&A videos (questions will
come from twitter/Instagram) and an Open Gym segment where a player is given an hour to
make a highlight tape. These products will open up a large array of opportunities to get our fans
and our city involved.
Price:
Entering the 2015-2016 as a brand new team we are going to position our price of tickets
in the bottom half of the league in regards to price. After looking at ticket prices from three
established NBL teams(London,Orangeville and Windsor) we found that the average ticket price
for Bowl seating/general admission, Courtside and seasons tickets (in Adult prices). These
averages came out to be 14$ for general/bowl seats, 70$ for courtside and 315$ for seasons
tickets. With these prices we would like to put ourselves $2-5 dollars less for general seating,
$10-15 less for courtside and $25-35 less for seasons tickets. These prices will give a great value
to start a brand new fan base in the Niagara region. When it comes to concession prices us at the
River Lions were going to base our prices off of the Meridian Center set prices. We would also
make some adjustments and add some River Lion exclusive items, such as a River Lion Burger
(with a lime green bun) River Lion candy corn (lime green and blue popcorn) and River Lion
Slushies to name a few.With these pricing strategies we will see great success in our inaugural
season and continue to change, adapt and grow for the future.
Promotion:
Promotion is one if not most important aspects of the River Lions main focus coming into
their inaugural season. Without promotion the River Lions will have what happend to the last
basketball franchise that came to Niagara being the St.Catharines DareDevils of the ABA. Where
the daredevils failed in promotion the River Lions will succeed and become a superior franchise
in the NBL. The River Lions will use our aforementioned social media platforms to promote our
franchise and make any available information in the fingertips of our fans.By using the Hashtags
#Ready2Roar and #WeNiagara , we be promoting on social media platforms but our fans will be
promoting our team too. Not only will be be promoting on social media, but we will have ads in
various southern ontario newspapers sport section. These ads will have all the upcoming home
games and events the River Lions are hosting and where and how much tickets cost. Moving
away from media promotion, there will be a number of apparel booths set up in the three major
malls in the Niagara Region. This will give the people of the Niagara Region a tangible look for
the River Lions. Our social media initiatives will grant us exposure to various market segments,
it will be able to find out the demographics and geographical location of our fans and customers.
Our social media will connect like minded, age specific and local fans together connecting them
with the River Lions.
12. 12
During our 2015-2016 season the River Lions will have full season In-game promotions
during halftime and during time outs. The half time promotions will be in the forms of
giveaways for free swag, tickets and other merchandise. Fans will get entered into these
promotions by taking a picture of them self at the game and using the previously mentioned
hashtags #Ready2Roar and #WeNiagara. Additionally to these half court promotions, once a
month at a home game we will have a half court shot, where one lucky fan will have the chance
to win season tickets to the 2016-2017 season. This will make a lasting memory for a fan and
potentially move them up the frequency lader and create a heavy/Life time fan. As for our time
out promotions, our staff will be circulating around finding fans to ask trivia questions to at
every time out. Guessing right or wrong on these trivia questions will grant the fan with a free
piece of River lion swag. With these promotions in place we can see the 2015-2016 inaugural
season being a great success and be used as a stepping stone for our organization's future.

St.Catharines is the largest city in the Niagara region with having a population in 2011 of
131,000 people. The Niagara region as a whole is comprised of 11 communities with a
population of over 400,000. St.Catharines is the sixth largest urban area located in Ontario, and
is nicknamed the “garden city” for is lush and abundant amounts of parks, trails and gardens.
Going on about the “Garden city” St.Catharines is located on the Niagara escarpment making for
some of the best hiking trails in Southern Ontario. The city’s downtown core has seen a huge
improvement over the past five years. With additions like the brand new Meridian Center (Home
of the River lions) and The First Ontario Performing Arts Center. The downtown has also seen a
huge face lift to their restaurants and bars along the main streets downtown. This creating a
fantastic and vibrant nightlife in the Summer and into the Winter. St.Catharines is also home to
Brock University one of Ontario's finest post secondary institutes, and Niagara Region is also
home to Niagara College located in Welland and Niagara-On-The-Lake. St.Catharines is also
home to the biggest city transit system in the region. With over 100 buses in the fleet the
St.Catharines transit is able to support city wide service with a bus reaching downtown within 30
minutes. With St.Catharines success with city transit a Regional transit system was launched in
2011 connecting all the communities in the Niagara region converging to St.Catharines. Much
like how the Niagara River Lions are able to capture and connect the Niagara region with its love
of basketball and professional sports.
