The best part about being a pirate based team is without a doubt the ability to create pirate themed merchandise. While other teams are selling novelty footballs and helmet replicas, Bondi Beach would be selling toy swords and pirate hats. But that's just scratching the surface, as we'd also be able to sell model ships, toy cannons, entire playsets if we wanted to, really. And then instead of just using normal generic pirates, we could have figurines of the current players decked out in pirate gear. To me, it's a great way to not only appeal to children who love buying all sorts of knick-knacks around the things they like, but a great way to also give the adults some unique souvenirs from their time at the pro-shop. And at the end of the day, isn't that what a pro-shop is all about? Less of just a way to get normal team merchandise they could get anywhere else, but some truly unique items that no one else carries. That's what I think it should be, at least.
