Basketball (January 1994)
Moving to the coast in 1972, Syd was involved with the start of the Maroochydore Basketball Association in 1973. In 1978, Syd took over the reins as president of the association.
Syd's two proudest moments were when the Clippers won the national title, becoming the first Queensland side ever to hold the championship, and when the Clippers won the inaugural Southern Cross Title.
