About this listen

In Episode 67 of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down on centre court at Hoops Capital East with Matt Denholm—Executive Director of Hoops Capital—to talk about building a modern-day sports business, creating community pathways, and why basketball in Sydney is just getting started.


Matt opens up about his first game-day memory as a five-year-old, the journey from a family love of basketball to owning both the Sydney Kings and Flames, and how he's helping steer the sport through its fastest growth phase in decades.


From grassroots court shortages to game-day innovation and digital storytelling, Matt shares how he’s building a full-stack basketball ecosystem—one that spans kids’ camps, high-performance facilities, and packed-out grand final nights at Qudos Bank Arena.


He also discusses signing Matthew Dellavedova, the role of owners like Andrew Bogut and Luke Longley, and the quiet power of moments like Pink Hoops and Flames playoff wins.


🏀 A front-row seat to the strategy, culture, and ambition behind Australia’s most ambitious basketball brand.
