Director of Basketball Operations Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager,

As a Director of Basketball Operations with 5 years of experience working with one of Nevada’s top teams, I apply with enthusiasm for this opportunity.

I began my career as a player with the Firetown Foxes, before moving into an operational role due to an injury sustained during an intense match (despite this, our team won the Las Vegas Basketball Championship finals thanks to my game-winning shot!).

In my current role as Director of Women’s Basketball Operations for the Bridgecity Shooting Stars, I handle a broad range of team and event functions such as designating assignments and game duties for home and away games, managing the employee schedule, overseeing match film production, scheduling and handling travel logistics and budgets, assisting with fundraising activities, and conducting breakdown and statistical analyses. 

I have loved every minute of my time with Bridgecity. After 3 years with the team, I feel that the time is right to seek out a fresh opportunity. I am familiar with your team through away match interactions, and have always felt that you epitomize the qualities of perseverance, desire for excellence, and friendly teamwork. I would love to be a part of it!

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours sincerely,

Robert Wall
