Rhea13 you say players are leaving, which age groups and are they bit part players looking for more time or good players as all clubs have churn, doesn't mean anything about the club unless they are good players leaving

Here are two legends of Australian Basketball Lindsay and Andrew Gaze. Their names are the first most people recall if you mention the Melbourne Tigers.

One of the things I like to do is watch good coaches – coach. I’ve certainly learned more about the game of basketball from watching Lindsay & Andrew in action. I’ve been fortunate to also watch other coaches like Nick Abdicevic or Nigel Purchase in action as well as they take skills sessions each Friday morning or coach high level representative teams.

All of these coaches have a philosophy that guides their actions in helping athletes “prepare, develop and improve their sporting performance” Special Olympics Coaching Guide

Probably my first tip for all coaches is to watch other coaches in action and ask what can I learn and use from this?

Congratulations also to David Watson the director of the boys Melbourne Tigers club for his support of the coaches of the junior teams in strengthening their general coaching skills.

The above comment is an ignorant statement and is also disrespectful .
I have been a parent of both a boy and girl at Melbourne(no longer there due to logistics, so not a biased parent by any means)
And I can tell you now that the coaches at Melbourne work harder
On developing the players than at other clubs the kids have
Played at. Funny we went to a rival club where a high
Profile coach used a different exit to the parents.
I would guess over the last 5 years my kids would have
Completed over 50 6.30am sessions with either
Nick (doc) and Nigel purchase, Johnno goodman.
Nicky Simpson in the girls 12s works harder and
Cares for the kids more than anyone I have seen.
My son has trained with all these so called poached
Melb players who have gone onto higher honours
Through natural ability and bloody hard work
With nick getting up 3 times a week at 5.30am
To be there. Get off their backs with cheap shots
They are also genuinely nice people who care about the kids

Worker - I'm actually the asst couch for Dandy's U12 girls. Melbourne was a big surprise defeating Bulleen & Knox b2b to reach the grand final. For most of the season the 12 girls was Dandenong, Knox, Nunawading & Bulleen (in no particular order) as the clear top 4 until Melbourne came on strong in the late part of the season. We'd beaten and been beaten by Knox, Nuna & Bulleen so even though we finished 4th we always thought if we played to our potential we'd have a pretty good shot. We'll have to play well again to beat Melbourne
