Bullants Netball Club Inc.

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend off from netball last week. Our girls that play in U11 & U12’s reps had a busy weekend and played very well. This weekend the U13, 14 & 15’s have their turn so good luck to them.

Round 14 on the 31 August is the last week for our NetSetGo team and a special presentation for them will follow their game. For the teams that will not make the finals, this will also be your last game. The volunteer of the year awards will be presented after the junior games so please stay around to cheer for our Bullants nominees. Three weeks of finals follow.

Save the date for our end of year celebration…Wednesday September 25th at the Deakin netball courts. More details will follow in the next few weeks.

Summer netball will begin on Wednesday 16th October. When the details are available from SCNA we will pop them on the website. This 8 week competition is just for fun…no training. It is a great time to introduce new players to the game so if you have friends who are interested in playing, bring them along.

Training continues as usual (unless the coach has made alternate arrangements) so see you at the courts tonight.

Round 13 this Saturday has Commanche and Braves with the bye.

Team photos – we will try and get these done over the next two playing weeks. Can everyone make sure you are at the courts in full uniform at least 30 minutes before the game.

Volunteer awards – SCNA is seeking nominations for the 2013 volunteers awards. The categories are: senior volunteer, junior volunteer, coach of the year, umpire of the year. If you would like to nominate someone, please let me know.

See you at the courts.

Round 12 sees three Bullants teams having a rest: Shinook, Chiefs and Braves (through opposition forfeit).

Thanks so much for the fantastic response to my request for help on the BBQ.  It is great to have so many community minded parents.  Hopefully the weather will stay fine and we will have a successful cook up. 

A reminder that we do not play on the weekends of the 17 August and 24 August.  The last game of the season proper will be 31 August.  This will be the last week for the NetSetGo girls and then the finals begin for all other divisions on 7 September.

Today I got some really positive feedback about our teams ( and its not the first time I have heard this). One of the teams we played against said at the end of the game that it was always good playing against Bullants teams as they are such nice girls. So take a bow girls, you’re doing a fantastic job and obviously show great sportsmanship.

Round 11 and all Bullants teams are playing. Juniors div 4 and Inters div 4 will play a split round to make up for the missed game before the break.

Chickasaw and Chiefs are on canteen duty.

There will be a get well card circulating on Saturday for Jane Morris who had a horse riding accident last weekend and is recovering in hospital. Jane has been a key figure for many years in the continuance of Bullants as a club and we wish her a speedy recovery. Also needing our thoughts is her daughter Bronwen (Shawnee coach) as she offers support to Jane.

Also just a reminder that there are no games on the weekend of August 17 & 24 as our rep girls re playing championships. Training will continue as usual.

I hope everyone had a nice holiday break. Training starts again this evening. Make sure you are wearing warm clothing in layers as it is going to be chilly tonight.

See you at the courts.

Training is on as usual tonight. We will then break for the school holidays and resume on Wednesday 24th.
There are no Saturday games until Saturday the 27th of July. Juniors div 4 and inters div 4 will play a split round then to make up the game they missed last week due to rain.

Netball ACT will run a NetSetGo holiday program on July 17-18. More information can be found t their website NetSetGo holiday program

See you at the courts tonight.

Inters div 4 is postponed as the grass courts are very slippery. You will play a split round when we come back from holiday

It’s a little damp out there, but all games are still on. I will send updates if things change but remember they will be last minute decisions.
So rug up, bring a brolly and we will see you at the courts.

This Saturday is the last game before the school holiday break.

The following teams have byes:
NetSetGo – Shinook (the opposing team has forfeited)
Juniors – Sioux
Inters – Dakota

Shawnee is on canteen duty.

We will have training next Wednesday and then a break over the school holidays.

See you at the courts
