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.

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.
