  • Closing the Distance for the Next Generation of Sporting Champions
    11 November 2019 Closing the distance for the next generation of sporting champions Natural sporting talent in Indigenous communities is abundant, but the chance to develop up- and-coming sports stars is often missed due to their remote geographic locations. Bamaga Enterprises Ltd, a community-owned, Indigenous organisation, has been looking to assist local youth and sporting clubs over the past decade in achieving their goals through sponsorships. To date, the organisation has contributed around $80,000 towards this effort. Bamaga Enterprises Chairperson, Robert Poi Poi, says that whether playing in or supporting a team, local sporting clubs can provide a feeling of belonging. “It’s important for us to develop local talent who, with the right opportunities, may eventually go on to compete at the state, national or international level. “An excellent example of this is basketball star Nathan Jawai, who received Bamaga Enterprises’ support in his teens for advanced training in the U.S. Nathan went on to play in the NBA and is now Captain of the Cairns Taipans,” says Mr Poi Poi. No matter the sport, Olive Whap is on the ball She may be young, but Bamaga’s Olive Whap is already an emerging star in both rugby and Aussie rules football. Olive’s mother, Mabelene Whap, had heard of Bamaga Enterprises’ sponsorship program and found more information at the organisation’s website. According to Ms Whap, remote communities have hidden talents that are not being recognised, due to lack of exposure. “Olive progressed from a clinic on Thursday Island in May to a trial in Atherton, then Townsville, where she was finally selected for the Northern Marlins Junior State team for QRL Northern Region.” Bamaga Enterprises sponsored Olive to travel to the Sunshine Coast for the Queensland Rugby League Junior State Championships - Under 14 Girls.

  • Danny Morseu Olympian Basketballer and Coach Danny Morseu
    Danny Morseu Olympian Basketballer and coach Danny Morseu Danny Morseu is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander athlete who had a highly decorated national and international basketball career, including competing in two Olympics and one World Championship, and leads many community initiatives. Born on Thursday Island in 1958 and from a Mer family, Danny Morseu started playing basketball at school. After completing school, he moved to Cairns for employment where he played basketball and rugby league for the local teams. In 1977, he was ‘discovered’ by St Kilda Pumas coach, Brian Kerle, while playing in Cairns, and he moved to Melbourne to play professionally with St Kilda. From the late 70s, basketball was becoming a popular national sport, and Danny was one of its heroes in the spotlight. In 1979, Danny was a member of the St Kilda team to win the inaugural National Basketball League (NBL) title, and again in 1980. He was named in the NBL-All Star lists in 1980 and 1981. He played 217 NBL games in total, winning another Danny Morseu with signed Molten basketball, 2018. NBL championship with the Brisbane Bullets in 1987. Photo by SLQ.

At the 1980 Olympic Games in Moscow, Danny became the first Torres Strait Islander born in the Torres Strait to compete in the Olympics. Aboriginal boxer, Norman Stevens, created a further Indigenous presence at the Games. Australia’s team ‘The Boomers’ tied their best outcome of an Olympic Games to date, finishing in eighth place, and beating eventual silver-medalist Italy in the group stage.

He was not in the starting line-up in a basketball game. His team did not win the game. He did not score any points, either. In fact, he only played for three minutes, and in that time he even made a turnover, allowing the other team to get the ball. What historic thing did Jawai do?
