John XXIII Netball Club
This is the last round of the 2023 Winter Netball Season.
I want to thank the coaches and managers for your time and effort this season.
I also want to thank all of the umpires who picked up a whistle and stepped up to court. It is a daunting task, and you did it magnificently.
Thank you to all of the players who stepped up to fill in for another team, you helped ensure those teams didn’t miss out on their game, and it is greatly appreciated by all of us.
Mental Health Awareness Round
This week is the Mental Health Awareness round. Players are encouraged to wear a blue armband to support this initiative. Blue tape will be put inside each team bag.
Finals
As we start to progress into finals, games can become intense. Please remember that the game is for the enjoyment of the players. Coaches' decisions are final and should be supported by parents and players. Umpires are human and someone’s daughter; be kind and supportive. If you have a concern with the opposition or the umpires, please get the coach or manager to call Milissa.

Positions Vacant
The Club cannot function without the volunteers that are on our Committee. We are very fortunate to have an amazing group of parents who have been long-standing volunteers over the last few years, but happily, children graduate, and sadly, families move on.
We are seeking parents to fill the following volunteer roles:
- Treasurer
The committee meets eight times yearly in a mixture of in-person and Zoom meetings.
If you would like more information on what the role entails, please email me at johnxxiiicnc@gmail.com

Please note that players are still registered with John XXIII Netball Club. Hence, the code of conduct and behaviour expectations for players and spectators of John XXIII College during the Spring competition are the same as the winter season.
Forfeit fees and other fines and penalties must be paid directly to PNA by the end of the spring season.
