SBL Basketball History

THANK YOU, MARK UTLEY ❤️🖤💛

After four seasons at the helm of the Magic NBL1 Men, we farewell Mark Utley, who will not be returning to the program in 2027.

Mark’s dedication led to a significant milestone for the club in our first-ever NBL1 West Championship in 2024 — a result that will remain an important part of Magic history.

We sincerely appreciate Mark’s commitment and contribution over the past four seasons and thank him for being part of the Magic journey.

From everyone at Magic, thank you Mark and all the best for what comes next. ❤️🖤💛
