🌟Just MAGIC ❤️

5 years ago I had a vision. I was Development & Pathways Manager at Mandurah Magic Basketball Association in WA. I created and facilitated programs, elite, grassroots, juniors etc.
My proudest creation was BAM!!!
💥 Basketball All-Abilities Mandurah

I was inspired by colleague Rod Hislop to offer something to people with disabilities and all abilities. So the name popped into my head and this new program was birthed.

This year, a coach I have mentored and an outstanding human being, received an award honouring him and this program for the City of Mandurah. I’m so proud of him for continuing to meet the needs of the wider community 🏀

Coach Dave - thank you for doing what you do 🙏 and continuing to make the Magic 🪄 happen!
