"I aim to leverage my significant experience, proven success, work ethic and networks in this great sport for the benefit of all organisations I work with, the athletes I coach(ed), and to grow and develop the game in general."
- Andrew Jantke
"Andrew’s knowledge of the game of basketball, his work ethic and his continuous positivity towards athletes on and off the court not only gives him a very good resume and a lot of success in everything he has been involved with, it has also made myself, other athletes and other coaches improve dramatically with the support he offers. Andrew has a distinctively warm approach to everyone he meets and works with and he puts a lot of effort in to make those around him better people, better coaches and better basketball players."
