Iain spent the last few months of the year familiarising himself with the basketball community and establishing several priority projects for attention in 2013. Interim chief executive Murray Strong completed his duties with BBNZ at around the same time. The board wishes to record its gratitude for the work Murray undertook while the search for a permanent chief executive was underway. 2012 was a year of change for Basketball New Zealand, as we consulted on the recommendations of the All of Basketball Plan and then began implementing them. The new tournament calendar was a good example of that work. “Business as usual” was still a big focus, with the national tournaments all providing fantastic examples of what is great about basketball – passion, fun, excitement, family, friends, competition and camaraderie. A highlight was the FIBA Oceania U19 Championship for Men and Women, hosted by Porirua in September.
