patrons.
The parking spaces outside of the clubrooms is now allocated for committee only parking – this

house and assisting in us constantly trying to get Wellington Oval up to its best standards:

Committee 2017
The 2017 committee have been working incredibly hard to get this season up and running. It is
with these volunteers that we are able to have a netball association and games each week.
I would like to publically acknowledge the committee and thank them for all the hard work that
they have done so far this season. Whilst this is only the beginning, it is going to be a big year for
MIANA, and watch this space for upcoming works to the grounds.
The 2017 Committee are:
Julie Hutchinson, Barbara Baker, Nikki Barlow, Lenore Krutzfeldt, Faye Tapu, Hayley Drewe,
Danielle Philpot, Tamhara Holder, Pania Osborne, Wairita Emery and Kim Coghlan.
It is without these people behind me, the works and visions I have for this association could not
get done.
So thank you for the countless hours, endless emails, long days, and arduous tasks you may be
set. It is you who make this association what it is and I thank you for your assistance in all you do
in your roles.
Please do remember that the people who run the association week in, week out are all volunteer
with full time jobs. Whilst we endeavour to get back to you as quickly as we can, this can
sometimes take a day or two to respond.
Yours in Netball,
Mel Allen
MIANA President
SIGN ON DAY AND WAITANGI DAY EXHIBTION GAME
Thank you to all the club delegates, committee members and others whom spent the morning sitting
in the heat waiting for new players and interest. For those players who have just joined us welcome
we hope you have an enjoyable netball season.
Hayley Drewe (Club Delegate) Vixens Netball
Maddie Merret (Club Delegate) Rovers
Netball
A great effort from both teams who played in the Waitangi Day
exhibition game with Barb Baker and Ma Enoka umpiring. There
was great sportsmanship from both sides with the Kiwi team sharing
their players with the Rest of the World side to ease the pressure
from the scorching heat that did not ease. As a kiwi, I am grateful
that the Mount Isa community and netball association lets us
continue to celebrate this traditional game as part of our Waitangi
celebrations and culture.
NEW NETBALL CLUB
As club delegate, I would like to introduce our newly formed
club “Te Whanau Netball” which means “family and to be
united”. Most of our club members have merged over from long
standing club “Matariki”. We have seven teams in the
competition with three teams in the junior comp, four in the
senior comp with one of our junior teams playing up in the
senior division 4 also.
NetSetGo
Expression of Interest: Looking for an energetic, positive accredited
coach to take on the role of assisting ages 5-10 year players into an
introductory netball program, providing a friendly and fun
environment ensuring a quality experience for all participants. Please
forward your interest to [email protected]
2017 MIANA UNDER 13/15 YEARS REP TRIALS
Due to not enough numbers and interest we could not have rep trials at this time. With most of the
carnivals being earlier on in the year we hope to have other opportunities to enter into carnivals at a
later date.
GRADING WEEKS AND TEAM DIVISIONS
We have had to extend this to an extra week due to being rained out for the juniors and to ensure all
teams are playing in the correct division. All team delegates received an email regarding what
divisions the club teams are in. This list is also available on our Mount Isa Netball Association
facebook page. Thank you for your patience and co-operation during this time. If you have any
enquires please send an email to our grading selection team @ [email protected]
UMPIRES – From our Umpire Convenor Hayley Drewe
As the season is about to start this week ALL
UMPIRES are required to have completed the online
test or have a local/national badge.
*All umpires and scorers need to SIGN the umpiring
sheet to avoid delays.
*All umpires are to wear a white shirt and suitable
footwear.
*All posts on Facebook asking for umpires will be deleted by admin as all teams have nominated 2
umpires.
I am hoping to get a paid umpiring list out in the next few weeks for teams that are desperate. This is
the last resort.
The link below is for the rules of netball theory examination. Please send me a copy of your
certificate via email or drop it off at the canteen. [email protected]
