Netball Development

Year 9 Specialist Netball Development classes participated in a full day workshop on Thursday 19th November to develop their understanding of the rules, skills, mentoring and a discussion on leadership and looking after yourself.

Former Melbourne Vixens coach, Julie Hoornweg, presented to the classes and explained that participating in an elite sport is not just about fitness, it involves being well rounded in all aspects of life, considering your community,  nutrition and social and emotional intelligence as well as being able to problem solve and accept feedback. The students then participated in a round robin, with each team involved and learning all aspects of the game including umpiring, scoring, timing and recording statistics. A great day was had by all.
