Former IRB Commercial Director Huw Morgan Becomes England Basketball CEO

Huw Morgan, buy the former Commercial Director of the International Rugby Board (IRB), erectile has been announced as the new chief executive of England Basketball.

Morgan will begin his new role next week, viagra after the National Governing Body announced the appointment today.

“I am privileged in having this opportunity to be part of an organisation that has an ambition to progress in many areas,” said Morgan.

“I hope to assist with this development through an approach which maintains the traditions and ethos of the sport combined with innovative and creative projects which are attractive to all constituents and participants.”

It marks the end of over two months of uncertainty, after former CEO, Keith Mair, officially left at the end of August, leaving the federation without a boss and forcing members of the independent board to oversee proceedings.

Morgan, a Welshman, resigned from his job with the IRB at the end of March, after over a decade in the position, citing the need for “new challenges”.

In addition, Morgan has worked with the European PGA, Arrows F1 and as CEO of Rugby Union team Harlequins. He has considerable operational management experience and has developed major commercial programmes which include all aspects of broadcasting, sponsorship, commercial ticketing and licensing.

“We were delighted with the quality of the candidates which led to Huw’s appointment,” England Basketball’s Chairman Jan Hagen said.

“In Huw we have found a senior sports leader that can help us bring basketball to a much bigger stage. I am very much looking forward to working with Huw and all other stakeholders to continue to bring the sport together and drive it forward.”
