NETBALL
Netball News
Dear Netball Families,
Thank you for a wonderful season. Our players played with sportsmanship and honed their skills along the way. A massive thanks to our coaches! Their ability to coach, umpire, ensure equal court time and encourage our players is nothing short of heroic. It's a tough job and I thank them so much. A big shout out to our parents who sacrifice their Saturdays on the side of a court. Thank you for bringing your child to netball- the greatest sport and beloved by many physiotherapists and knee/ankle surgeons around Australia.
On Friday 5/11/21, Mrs Elliott presented trophies to all of the teams. Kinder Skills received lolly bags. Coaches received thank you cards and little presents. Congratulations to the Year 5 teams who only had 8 players per team. St Nicholas Sapphires were the 11/12B Runner’s Up and St Nicholas Strikers were the 11/12C Winners. Woohoo!
Congratulations to:
Kinder Skills: Piper Bartlett , Georgia Cannon, Evie Cunningham & Sophia Wadwell
