John XXIII Netball Club

We were thrilled to have West Coast Fever represented at our Secondary grading sessions, with Jess Anstiss (Fever Captain) and Sasha Glasgow (Fever Shooter) lending their expertise to support player selection. Their involvement provided our players with a unique and inspiring opportunity to be assessed by elite‑level athletes. Jess and Sasha also led players through the warm‑up as the grading sessions commenced.

We were also delighted to welcome Fever Reserve player Kate Cunningham to our grading, who will continue her role as a coach within the Club for the 2026 season.

Secondary

All Secondary grading and play‑off matches have now been finalised, and players have commenced regular training with their appointed coaches.

Training times

Years 10 to 12: Tuesday, 3:30pm – 5:00pm
Years 7 to 9: Thursday, 3:30pm – 5:00pm

Primary

Primary teams have now been announced. Training will commence in Week 9 for teams that have elected to begin training before the holidays.

Uniforms

Netball hoodie samples are available to try on at the Uniform Shop. Please ensure students try on a sample before purchasing online through Slater Gartrell, as refunds for incorrect sizing will not be available. You can order them here.

Players are required to wear navy bloomers or navy bike shorts under their netball dresses. Black or any other colours are not permitted under any circumstances.

Season commencement

More information can be found via: 2026 PNA Winter Competition Dates | Perth Netball Association

Netball Club WhatsApp Community Hub

We are excited to introduce the Netball Club WhatsApp Community Hub, a new communication channel designed to keep our families and players updated throughout the season.

This WhatsApp hub will be used for:

Regular club updates / Important announcements
Grading and training reminders
Game‑day information
Weather or venue changes

The Community Hub allows us to share information quickly and efficiently, ensuring everyone stays informed and connected.

To join the John XXIII Netball Club WhatsApp Community Hub, please click the link: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GjybDB7NTag7Elq8X7if6M

Please note that the hub operates as a one‑way communication platform. Only administrators will be able to post, ensuring that all updates remain clear, organised, and free from message overload for families. The hub will be used exclusively for important announcements.

Player privacy will always remain a top priority. No personal details, team lists, or player‑specific information will be shared in this space.

If you need to contact me, all communication must be via email or by sending a message to the Netball Club mobile number. Please note that this device, and all Netball Club WhatsApp groups are monitored by the College.
