Additional Update

The following reminders have come through from SCNA:

Scoreboard – All players must sign the scoreboard EVERY WEEK to be eligible to play in the finals.

Prefer outside the courts: We are encouraging anyone who is not a player, coach, umpire, scorer or team manager to remain outside the gates where possible.

Division Re-grade: If any re-grading is necessary, changes will be made following the grading rounds (7th May). 

BBQ Duty: Bullants is rostered 28th May, please mark your calendar and be ready to assist when the call for help goes out.

Canteen Duty: Your team Manager will let you know when your team is on Canteen duty. Two volunteers are needed in the canteen for the 1hr 10min shift (this can be divided by a number of helpers into 15 or 30 minute slots so you can still watch your game).

Court Support Duty:

Over the season, teams will be rostered to help around the courts and in the Clubhouse (but not the canteen) – setting up for the day, checking at midday and packing up. 30mins is allocated, but usually is takes 15mins. Duties include:

8.15-8.45am Court Set up:  Teams need to provide 3 volunteers to do set up for the day e.g. putting out the rubbish bins, putting up the pole wrappers etc.

If you are interested in umpiring at the SCNA Rep carnival this Sunday 1 May at Deakin there is more information here: https://www.facebook.com/southcanberranetballassociation/photos/pcb.4967032010050163/4967031953383502/

Courtside or Outside the fence in 2022? SCNA are no longer mandating that spectators remain outside the courts to watch the games, however, we have had a lot of feedback especially from our junior coaches and umpires that they prefer spectators to remain outside the courts. We encourage you to support this. Should you choose to be inside the courts, remember that only the coach, manager, scorer and players are to be on the team bench side of the court. All spectators are to be on the opposite side of the court.

Respect. Please let our Umpires umpire, our Coaches coach and our Players play. Applaud good performance and efforts by all players. Congratulate both teams on their performance regardless of the game’s outcome. Remember Bullants and SCNA are run by volunteers. Our committees, coaches, managers and umpires give up their time and resources and deserve your support. Please familiarise yourself with the Netball Australia Code of Behaviour: https://act.netball.com.au/sites/act/files/2020-07/NetballAustraliaNationalCodesofBehaviour.pdf
