BBA General Manager Appointment

Broadmeadows Basketball Association (BBA) is pleased to announce that, following

an extensive and rigorous selection process, Morgan Hughes has been successful in

being appointed to the General Manager role.

Morgan has worked as the General Manager of the North West Football League

(under the auspices of AFL Tasmania) for the past five years, leading the League’s

growth of competition numbers, female participation and development programs and

driving the formulation and implementation of its Strategic Plan.

In making the announcement of Morgan’s appointment, BBA Vice President Mark

Crotty said “The selection panel that considered applicants for the General Manager

role was unanimous in its assessment that Morgan was the best credentialled

candidate. That assessment took into account Morgan’s demonstrated capabilities

servicing a sports environment not dissimilar in scale and community characteristics

to the Broadmeadows demographic markers. It was also reassuring that Morgan had

grown up in the Hume City LGA so he could identify with the multicultural and

socioeconomic factors unique to Hume City. We are very glad to welcome Morgan to

our GM role.”

“I’m looking forward to coming on board” Morgan said, when accepting the offer of

appointment. “The Broadmeadows Basketball entity is a well-respected organisation

which has been rolling out a number of impressive community engagement initiatives

leading to outcomes of improved self esteem and a sense of belonging, through the

agency of sport. Playing my role in facilitating those outcomes through consolidating

socially responsible partnerships and seeking new ways to provide community

lifestyle benefits is what attracted me to this opportunity.”

Morgan is due to commence in the General Manager role on 19 January.
