Goriss spent ten years as an Assistant and Senior Coach of the AIS Men’s basketball program and three years as the Head Coach of Basketball Australia’s Centre of Excellence Women’s program based at the AIS. In addition to his role at the Capitals, Goriss is also the current coach of the Australian U19 Gems women’s team. In his first season as Head Coach of the Capitals, taking over from club stalwart Carrie Graf, Goriss led a new and refreshed Capitals side to a winning 13-11 season record but narrowly missed the finals. The Capitals will be relying on Goriss’ expertise in individual player development to take the next step in achieving finals success.
