Brunei's basketball is set for a more promising direction following the appointment of Kevin Reece as the new national basketball head coach of the country recently.
Basketball enthusiasts in Brunei will be glad to know the news that the national basketball coach, Kevin Reece, will be selecting players in the upcoming weeks when he puts his plan into full throttle of changing the face of Brunei basketball.
The seat has been left vacant for too long since the previous coach, Bennett Palad of the Philippines, left one and a half years ago and Reece, who is popularly called Coach K, wants to start his job by developing the sport from the grassroots.
Having been confirmed as the man for the job on Dec 23 last year, Reece is beginning to settle down with his job in the Sultanate.
The American coach has a demanding task of reestablishing a proper national team to challenge the might of other Asean basketball powerhouse in the 2015 SEA Games.
Reece, who hails from Los Angeles, California, in the United States, has been coaching professional basketball since 1985.
He is the winningest coach in the history of Singapore High School with a record of 22-1 in Championship appearances, having won in every division possible and earned over 300 wins.
Other notable achievements by the American coach, who graduated from the California State University Fullerton, include capturing the 2004 7-Eleven Challenge Cup National Champions Mens Open while coaching Singapore side Street Roc Wildcats.
He was the only non-Asian coach to do so at that time.
Other highlights in his career include being the 1985 New Zealand national champions and helping Queensland, Australia, to become the 1988 Banjos League Australian national champions when he also won the Most Valuable Player award.
