I work a lot in a particular housing scheme in Inverness and I have never been aware of any inter action by the club with the community. Engagement is key not just with the kids but with the adults as well. The club really have to identify themselves and pro-actively make an effort to come along side local communities and not just expect people to come along to a game on a Saturday - nowadays that just does not work. I agree that there are serious issues re admission charges; the SPL pricing is no attraction and is excluding many people from the game they love. Just my opinion for what's it worth, but I believe the ICT board really need to look as to how they can pragmatically and consistently engage with the people in the local communities and not for them just to read about the club in the Courier on a Friday and maybe see an advertisement for a forthcoming match. Yes, the club are doing some coaching with kids and maybe odd visits to schools like all clubs do, that would be expected; but to boast crowds the club really need to do so much more to interconnect with the ordinary people of the "town" and that will take a lot of hard work.
