Shooting Hoops for a Good Cause
This year’s event will raise funds for Outside the Locker Room (OTLR), a registered Australian charity dedicated to improving mental health and wellbeing through sport, schools and community programs. OTLR delivers mental health education and welfare support designed to build stronger, healthier and more connected communities (otlr.org.au). Bring up to four guests from your organisation and enjoy a relaxed morning of networking, breakfast and community impact. The morning will feature a special guest speaker, Brad Davidson (South East Melbourne Phoenix)/ Simon Derrick (CEO) to share insights on business, leadership and the value of partnerships.
Shoot for Charity Challenge
The highlight of the morning will be our Shoot for Charity Competition. Each participating business will select a DV NBL1, WNBL or NBL player as their shooter.
How it works:
• Each shooter receives 5 minutes to score as many baskets as possible
• Every basket scored = $5 donation from the business to OTLR
• The business with the highest score and donation total will claim bragging rights and take home the inaugural perpetual trophy
This is a fantastic opportunity to:
• Showcase your organisation’s CSR and community values
• Bring along your marketing or leadership team
• Network with fellow DVBA partners and businesses
• Experience firsthand the value of community partnership and sport as a platform for impact
