Episode description
In this Episode we welcome back Annie La Fleur - Olympian & NSW Hall of Famer to tell us about basketball programs bringing positive social impacts in the COVID era to the FIBA Oceania and South East Asia regions. Adapting to online delivery has brought unexpected benefits by reaching more people across large geographical regions while also keeping kids and communities engaged.
Annie gets into her involvement with indigenous camps across NSW as part of the BNSW partnership with the Patty Mills’ Indigenous Basketball Australia organisation and the promise of discovering new talent in our nation.
We also get an insight into the FIBA initiatives of Hoops for Health & Her World Her Rules and its application closer to home in the Pacific region along with the importance of home grown ambassadors that kids can look up to and represent them.
