Kelvin Fisher - Administrator of the Year - Canterbury Basketball Association

Ex-Student wins Prestigious Award

Kelvin Fisher (JPII 1984-88) has been awarded Administrator of the Year for the Canterbury Basketball Association.

Kelvin Fisher (JPII 1984-88) has been awarded Administrator of the Year for the Canterbury Basketball Association. He has been very active in a number of basketball clubs in Christchurch as well as part of the organising committee for the 75th Jubilee of West Coast Basketball including ‘Westside Weekend’ to be held in Greymouth next March.

It is great to see ex-students who honed their skills as student competitors going on to support the next generation in their sport. One of the key influences of a young Kelvin was Basketball stalwart, Bill Kennedy. Bill coached several generations of JPII basketballers, not only encouraging them to participate in the sport, but to be part of the coaching of teams and West Coast Basketball administration. Well done, Kelvin.
