Filipino basketball player (1936–2014)
Kurt Bachmann (July 18, 1936 – August 29, 2014)[1] was a Filipino basketball player who competed in the 1960 Summer Olympics. Bachmann was born in Iloilo City,[2] and is of German descent.[3]
Bachmann led the De La Salle Rangers to a juniors’ (high school) National Collegiate Athletic Association (Philippines) (NCAA) championship in 1955, and the De La Salle Green Archers to a seniors’ (collegiate) championship in 1956. He also played for YCO Painters, notably making the title-clinching jump-shot in 1960 Manila Industrial and Commercial Athletic Association championship.[3] Bachmann represented the Philippines in the 1959 FIBA World Championship, 1960 Summer Olympics, and the 1962 Asian Games.[1]
Bachmann, who has his #33 jersey retired by De La Salle University, died on August 29, 2014.[1] Dickie Bachmann, chairman of the Philippine Sports Commission, is his son.[4]
