We will be distributing the medals provided by SCNA for the winter comp teams that finished on the top of the table for their division (Dakota, Cherokee and Zuni) and also the participation medals for our NSG winter players. The medals will be available for collection at the Bullants table on the western side of the courts on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday this week from 5.30 – 6.30.

Reminder – Bullants has the AGM today where new helpers can join. Please nominate using the attached Committee Nomination form and come along today at 3.30pm via Zoom link. Meeting ID 5053551521. https://us02web.zoom.us/j/5053551521#success

Are you the next helper that Bullants needs to keep our club operating and our players on court? We are about to lose two sets of hands from our committee and we are now looking for new members. You dont need to have netball skills, just a willingness to pitch in and give back to your community. It might be that you share club information with our team Managers, create a roster for the gate on training Wednesday’s or help put our kit bags together at the start of the season. The ongoing committee members can provide guidance and answer questions. We simply need more people power.

Please nominate using the attached Committee Nomination form and come along to the AGM this Sunday 28th November 3.30pm via Zoom. Meeting ID 5053551521. https://us02web.zoom.us/j/5053551521#success

All of the Bullants community is welcome and encouraged to attend the AGM. Agenda, Auditor’s Statement and Financial Report are attached.

Please send an email if you are interested in joining the committee but unable to attend Sunday’s AGM or if you have any questions. We look foward to a (virtual) crowd!

Netball is back this week – Twilight netball kicks off tonight for NSG Set & Go, Tuesday night for Juniors, Inters and Women’s Seniors and Wednesday night for Mixed and Women’s Competitive.

A few things to remember as part of our COVID-Safe return to play plan, including:

• Check-In CBR App for all participants aged 16 years and older. 
• Ensure that all player’s names are on the score board each week (will be used if contact tracing required for those under 16)
• Sanitation of hands upon entry and exit to courts – Entry at the top end of the courts and exits at the side and bottom of courts. 
• Minimise interaction between teams not playing on the same court 
• Exclusion of spectators from the courts
• Regular cleaning of all equipment 
• Limiting entry to SCNA club house for essential reasons only (a mask must be worn if entering the club house)
• There will be a canteen open but no BBQ available.

We are looking forward to seeing lots of happy Bullants players and community out there enjoying themselves.  Please observe the requirements of the return to play plan and stay safe and healthy. Remember, we are all rusty – warm up well to reduce injuries. Long hair tied back, ALL jewellery removed, fingernails cut short.

Teams for Twilight have now been finalised and submitted to SCNA. Bullants has nominated 24 teams. We will advise your team and the SCNA Covid plan when finalised.

UNIFORM: Black bottom + white top OR Bullants dress if you have it. We will use overhead bibs for all teams.

TEAM MANAGER: All teams need a team Manager who is responsible for the team kit bag/ball/bibs as well as placing players into positions, especially in the younger teams. The Manager is also the team’s liaison for the club. If you are an Inters or Seniors team and you dont have a Manager, then a player needs to nominate themselves to sign out the kit bag and be the team liaison.

SEASON DATES: Starts Monday November 1, runs for 7 weeks, with last game 15 December. There are no finals. It is Social Netball, please play with a social mindset and abide by the SCNA Code of Conduct.
