Coach of the Month | Doug Gates

 

 



 


Wolfpack Basketball's 2018 initiative, the Coach of the Month recipient, recognises our club's coaching talent and commitment across the entire Association. Yes that's Domestic, WABL and SBL.

Each month a coach will be recognised for their attitude, work ethic and alignment to our club vision.

Every monthly winner enters the draw at year end to win a $500 coaching grant, to better their skills and further develop their game experience and education.

Congratulations DOUG GATES - our August winner!

Doug’s ongoing and seamless transition from player to coach took a huge step in 2018 with him delivering a SBL Division 1 Championship with his super talented roster for the Wolves in a spirited Grand Final against the Kalamunda Eastern Suns.

Doug is a x375 SBL game stalwart for the Joondalup Wolves, a lethal shooter with great size, proving hard to defend for opponents across the length of his excellent career.

The Doug Gates story is one of resilience, talent, hard-work and a case study in getting the very best out of oneself as an athlete and as a team-mate and role model.

Doug’s ability to utilise this knowledge and experience gained over such a long and successful Wolves SBL career has been a huge asset for the club, and for his young team.

Named a Life Member in late 2017, Doug continues to contribute to the Wolves, and his popularity and knowledge - now in a coaching capacity - have been hallmarks of his multiple decades relationship with the Association.



Well done Doug!
