Congratulations Michael Whippy and Kelepi Serukalou

Basketball Fiji would like to congratulate Michael Whippy and Kelepi Serukalou for winning there respective prestigious awards at the 2008 Fiji Association of Sports and National Olympic Committee Sports Award at Tradewinds Entertainment Centre in Lami last Saturday night.

         Michael Whippy overcame big names such as Ileisa Tanivula (Coach of the national 7’s Team) to win the award for Coach of the Year. This is huge win for not only Coach Mike, as he is known by players, but also for Basketball Fiji as a whole. His tireless commitment to the game throughout so many years has been of great benefit to all involved in basketball.

Kelepi was crowned 2008 FASANOC Sports Volunteer of the Year. Over the past year he has done a wonderful job reviving the sport at a junior level in Raiwai with his junior development clinics, competitions and has begun a very successful 3 on 3 tournament for senior men. Volunteers like Kelepi are a major contributing factor to any successful sport and we offer a big thanks for all his outstanding work.

Well done Coach Mike and Kelepi for their awards!!!
