At the 49th Annual General Meeting for Basketball Ballarat, the Board of Basketball Ballarat proposed two current members as being worthy of being elected to Life Membership.  They were Di Nevett and Peter Cunningham and both nominations were endorsed by the meeting by acclamation.

Di’s career in basketball began at the age of 10 with Exies Acmy and has covered every aspect of the sport from playing at elite level, to extensive coaching across all levels, and to leading roles in administration.  As Exies current President she has harnessed the energies of all other Club Presidents to present constructive ideas to the BBA Board.  She was named as a member of the Lady Miners 20 year Anniversary Team.  Her love of the sport is unquestionable.
