Recognising 12 Years of Service. 🙌 🏀

After 12 years of dedicated service to Cairns Basketball, we thank outgoing President Chris Van Dorssen for his extraordinary contribution to our organisation and the broader basketball community.

Chris has helped shape Cairns Basketball both on and off the court, including through major infrastructure projects such as the Court 5 upgrade, power upgrade and CQUniversity building and sports science facilities.

We also extend our sincere thanks to Andrea and the Van Dorssen family for supporting Chris throughout his years of service.

The Board has elected Aaron Luki as Interim President, who will lead Cairns Basketball through to the upcoming AGM.

Thank-you Chris, for 12 years of leadership, commitment and passion for basketball in Cairns. We wish you, Andrea and your family all the very best for the next chapter! 👏✨
