My involvement at Diamond Valley will continue whilst I enter my first season in the WNBL. The support from Diamond Valley was critical to my decision to continue my education at the elite level. I look forward to being a link from the association level to the highest level we have in our country " 

"This is a wonderful opportunity for Al to coach in the WNBL and we wish him the best of luck. He will be great for their program and will be of fabulous assistance to Guy as I have witnessed in the past,” said DVBA’s CEO Ross Wignell.
