Respecting & Supporting Umpires & Officials
We have both emerging umpires and umpires from the junior umpire program on our games in Juniors and GO. They are learning!
Please support them (and all officials) to grow by not commenting on the umpiring during the game or with your players afterwards.
Upholding our Code of Conduct
We are aware that there have been a number of unacceptable incidents on the sideline of netball courts in NSW and WA over the last month. Bullants is incredibly proud of our community’s conduct in respectfully and inclusively supporting our players, coaches and officials and we thank our bullants community for continuing to uphold this conduct.
However, this serves as a timely reminder of the standards we expect and uphold. We fully anticipate every member of our community will continue to champion our Code of Conduct at all times.
Bullants does not accept anything less than complete respect and inclusivity for our players, coaches, and officials.
Thank you for your ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe, positive environment for our sport.
