GET READY FOR NETBALL COURSES

These will be run in the April school holidays - I will be in touch with more information as I receive it.

 

COACHES

We would love to have parents to help coach and manage our teams (without this support our team entries will be limited). We will have coaching support available and you may even like to share the coaching role with someone else (please let us know if this is an option for you). We are hoping to have a coaching clinic or two (before or during) the season. Please note that all coaches and managers need to be fully vaccinated.

 

UMPIRES

Each team needs to provide their own umpire - if you are able to or know of anyone who would be interested in being a team umpire please let me know. Umpires are required to be fully vaccinated.

 

COVID

Netball will be run as a My Vaccine Pass event with only 100 people allowed in each zone. Each round is classified as a zone and it is to be only those directly involved with the team present within that zone (players, coach, manager, umpire). Spectators will need to stand behind the perimeter fencing.If your child is interested in playing netball this year, please complete this Google Form by April 8th.
