After a couple of seasons regrouping the Dolphin's senior mens side is once again back into Division 1.

Still without a tall but sporting a committed coach and team of players who put a together strong season in the twos it is great to see them taking this step.

 

 

Our AGM was held on the 28th October 2015.

A big thank you to those who assisted last year and a warm welcome to all those who have committed to roles within the Dolphins Basketball Club this year. It takes people being prepared to put in the time and effort into running our club for it to be successful.

Decisions were made at this year's meeting aimed at both spreading and easing the load for those with roles within our club. 

One was to split the secretary's role in two. Mel Davis will be looking after the Boys and Stef Tripodi takes on responsibility for the Girls.

Another was to have communications with club officials to be email driven rather than phone or text. This is to allow those officials to better manage their time commitments to club matters. Over the next week or so we will work toward having all emails contacts to go through dolphinsbasketball.org.au. These will be listed on the contacts page as they are verified. Please refrain from using the personal email addresses of club officials once the new ones become available.

Thank you.
