to fall devastatingly short in the semi-finals against Adelaide. Despite missing out on the Grand Final, this season was still a success for the Boomers, who once again drew big crowds to their games, and were able to provide a great atmosphere and experiences at their home venue, State Basketball Centre. Today’s team includes talented young Australians like Maddie Garrick, Chelsea D’Angelo and Ezi Magbegor, as well as four New Zealand Tall Ferns players. Coach Guy Molloy continues to be a constant behind the scenes, and with the signing of Assistant Coach Larissa Anderson in 2019/20, the coaching team set to grow even stronger. With the recent appointment of Christy Collier as the club’s GM, the Boomers have their sights set on even greater things in the 2019/20 Season, both on and off the court. Christy is an exciting addition to the Boomers team, having over 20 years of experience in marketing, operations and business roles, as well as having played for the Canberra Capitals in the WNBL throughout the nineties. After nine years as the coach for Melbourne Boomers, and finishing with the 2021-22 NBL championship, Coach Guy Molloy moved to Basketball New Zealand and the Boomers hired Chris Lucas to replace him for the 2022-2023 season.
