“In welcoming Bonnici to our coaching staff, everyone at the MBA would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the outgoing women’s national team headcoach, Angela Adamoli who led the team to numerous successes. We wish Adamoli the best of luck for the future.”
On his part, Malta Basketball Association president Paul Sultana said that the appointment of Bonnici aligns with the governing body’s plans to see the national team reach new heights in the future.
“Charles Bonnici’s proven track record in developing winning strategies and fostering a culture of excellence aligns seamlessly with the Association’s ongoing commitment to support the growth and progress of our women’s national team,” Sultana said.
“Our objective is to consolidate the work done so far while striving to achieve further improvement in terms of the performances and results of the women’s basketball team.”
