This not only shows team & club spirit but it also boosts our junior member’s confidence on court.



JEWELRY: please note that it is a rule that no jewelry is permitted while playing a game of netball for the health and safety OF ALL PLAYERS. Coaches and Team coordinators are asked to remind their team members of this. Players who are found to have studs in their ears tongue lips nose eyebrows belly buttons or bars on any part of their body will be asked to remove themselves from the court and will not be allowed back on until they are removed … SO JUNIOR or SENIORS wait a couple more weeks before getting any new piercing.



MOBIL CARNIVAL: Their will be no Mobil carnival this year due to the number of weeks left and the preparation it takes to organize it.



SUMMER SEASON:

There will be a summer season this year with MIXED and SOCIAL Divisions. The mixed comp is so much fun so if you and your work colleagues want a great way to socialize have fun and get some fitness this is for you. Players already registered with GNA will only have to play court fees. Season will commence Tuesday 10 October – 12 December all teams registering will have to provide a name of an umpire for the team.



REP NETBALL: A representative workshop will be held later this year to put in place processes for any thing to do with Rep it would be great to encourage our coaches and some of our parents to become involved so that GNA have a better view of what people expect and think the players need. I will keep you posted on this development.



I think this is all if you as coaches and team coordinators can really push for people to attend our Orientation to Coaching course and Umpiring and Strapping development it would be very much appreciated ALL CLUB MEMBERS ARE INVITED TO ATTEND.
