AGM
This is held in conjunction with the Junior Prize Giving. Of the current 9 committee members, three
have indicated that they will be retiring at this AGM. Obviously we are on the lookout for some more
people to join us. Generally we meet once a month from January to September. We enjoy the
usual discussions and make the decisions that affect what happens to your daughter and her netball
team. We would love to hear from any of you interested in joining us for next season, particularly
from parents of the junior grades.
RETURNING YOUR STUFF
All players are required to return their playing bag and jacket to their coach in good and clean
condition. Any player not returning their gear will be considered unfinancial and will be ineligible to
play netball in 2010 for any club until the gear is returned in good condition or satisfactory
reimbursement is made to Technical.
Coaches should ensure that the player bags and jackets are returned along with the team gear bag
on Prize Giving day. Please make a list of the numbers for the jackets and player bags returned
so they can be easily checked off.
Contact Raewyn Pope [email protected]. if you have any problems.
Helping out – Website
We are still keen to set up a website for the club and are seeking some professional help to do so. We have
already registered a domain name. Please contact Elaine Higgs [email protected] if you can help.
