Bullants Netball Club Inc.

Registration information and forms on our Summer Comp page

There are two registration forms: one for NSG and one for JUNIORS, INTERS & SENIORS.

Please register early so we can ensure you are placed on a team.

As we roll out the summer competition information, it is time to introduce you to our new website which we will use for the business end of our operations.  Over the years so many parents have asked for online registration and payments.  We trialed the online registration form in the winter comp and it was a great success however we still had to rely on you to make payments via direct debit and it resulted in a lot of chasing on our part (time consuming for our volunteers).  Now we have finally managed to pull it all together.  We will still keep our WordPress site as it is by far the best way for us to communicate with you (if you click the FOLLOW BUTTON at the bottom of the page).  All other information will be migrated to the new site over the next few weeks.  You will recognise the new site…it looks a lot like the SCNA website.

Summer Comp info can be found HERE.
NSG registration should be up in a few days so hang tight!

Well done to all of our teams who competed in the Winter comp this year.  10 of our 15 competitive teams made finals this year.  We wish you all the best and know that you will represent Bullants and the spirit in which we play to your best ability.

I indicated in the last post that Shawnee was the first of the Bullants teams through to finals however I forgot about the other teams that play in a division with only six teams as such have completed two full rounds of competition.  So lets add Sioux, Comanche and Arapaho to the list of teams that have made finals.  These teams will still play the next two rounds however the points wont count.

Despite the break in competition, it has been quite busy at Bullants.  Some of players scored an invite to Parliament House to a reception hosted by PM Tony Abbott for the Australian Netball Diamonds.  They enjoyed morning tea before the ceremony started and then got to meet the players after the official ceremony.

GAMES 29 August 2015
We are down to the last two rounds of the competition before the finals start.
Cree has the BYE this weekend.
Shawnee Junior Division 3 has completed their two full rotations of games in the draw and as such while the last two games will be played, they will not impact on the finals results.  Congratulations Shawnee, you are the first Bullants team to make it to the finals round.

TEAM PHOTOS
Please be at the courts a few minutes early this week so that I can take your team photos.

Congratulations
Congratulations to Caitlin Hanna, Eloise Millington and Olivia Cummins (former Bullant) on their selection in the Develop a Diamond Squad.  Great effort to all our Bullants who trialed.

Summer Comp
Please start thinking about if you/your child would like to play summer comp.  We will have registration for the competition in the next few week and usually we rely very heavily on parents to coordinate the team on game day .  Summer comp is a very social environment – kids play a game, get a snag from the BBQ for dinner, and mum and dad can even get a team together. The competition starts Wednesday October 21 and runs for 8 weeks.

Brr.  Not safe to train tonight. Stay warm everyone.

Lots of netball happening at the moment with the start of the WorldCup today.   While we will play this weekend, the following two weekends are breaks in the draw again; the first for the World Cup and the second for U 11 & 12 Junior Championships.  Training WILL CONTINUE despite the breaks.

This week Mohicans have the bye.

SAVE THE DATE: The Bullants end of season CELEBRATION has been moved forward one week to WEDNESDAY September 16 as stage 1 of the SCNA court refurbishment means the courts will be closed immediately after the Grand final.  Teams who make the grand final will be offered an alternate night to train.  The Bullants Annual General Meeting is also being brought forward to coincide with the BBQ.  It will begin at 7:15 pm and everyone is welcome.  All positions will be vacated and this is your chance to have input into how the club is run.  It would be great to have a representative from each of our teams attending.
