The St Edward’s Netball Teams for the 2024 Winter Competition

Due to students relocating, we have had a couple of spots open up in the Suns and the Blazers team, so if anyone is interested in playing, please let us know. 

If you don’t have a St Edward's netball uniform, there is a small amount of second hand sets available at the Primary Canteen, or new uniforms can be purchased on Compass - in the canteen menu, go to uniforms. New uniforms cost $75.

Games will begin on Saturday 4th May 2024. 

The draw can be found on the Tamworth Netball Association Facebook page. 

Netball training is decided by coaches. 

Basketball Draw

Please read through some housekeeping for the current basketball season

1. Tamworth Sports Dome

Our wonderful facility is operated by the Tamworth Regional Council and Tamworth Basketball share this facility with other businesses and their clients. It is important that we do not have children running through the foyer area and playing on the stairs that lead up to Rural Fit. This is for the safety of the children, as well as the other users of the Sports Dome. We have also had some instances of young children being seen to be running around the car park area unsupervised. As you can appreciate, this is a major safety concern, and we ask all parents supervise their children whilst attending the Sports Dome. 

2.  Spectators

Tamworth Basketball and Tamworth Region Council provide seating for spectators to use whilst watching the games. We appreciate that at times this seating can be limited when we have an increased amount of spectators watching games but we ask that spectators do not sit on the Players/Coaches benches that are situated on either side of the score bench. These benches are specifically for the players and coaches, and we need to ensure that players and coaches have an adequate area to use during their game. We are in the process of acquiring additional seating.

Spectators are also reminded not to stand or sit directly behind the baskets at either end of the court. This is for the safety of all players, referees, court supervisors and spectators. If you are asked to move along by one of Court Supervisors, please do so as we would not like to see anyone become injured from standing or sitting in this area.

3.  2024 Competition Rules and Information

We have attached a copy of the 2024 Junior Competition Rules and Information. Please read them as it outlines information relating to scoring, players, fees and other matters that help us to operate our local competitions. 

St Edward's Representative Shirts

Please keep a lookout for these in your cupboards, school bags, dirty clothes baskets, even under beds. We are still missing a considerable amount of shirts which will be required to be handed back in this term.

Netball and Basketball Uniforms

You are able to order both the St Edward's Netball and St Edward's Basketball uniform by using the Compass app.

HOW TO ORDER:

1.Click on the Compass app

2. Select more (bottom right corner)

3. Select canteen

4. Select child

5. Select day (tomorrow's date)

6. Select uniform menu

Simply select size and the uniform will be handed to your child at school the day selected. Please keep all tags on until you are happy with the size after trying on to allow a simple exchange at the primary canteen. 

If your child is in Year 6 and does not have a sibling to hand their netball/basketball uniform to, could you consider donating or selling your uniform through the school? We are always looking for second hand uniforms for our new families and new students to the sport.  Please see Mrs Bridge in the Canteen for more information around this.
