Melbourne University Basketball Club is pleased to announce Grantley's appointment. Grantley comes from an extensive basketball background; in 2010, he coached Geelong's Big V Championship women to the premiership and was also appointed coach of the year. Grantley has also covered the game extensively as an NBL journalist for the Australian and Herald Sun.
