Crazy Hair And Socks At Netball

June 7, 2018 by Maggi Barnard

There were many creative dress ups at Saturday, 26th May’s netball competition, when the FNA players and committee members went ‘Crazy For The Kids Cancer Project’ fundraiser. This day is an annual event held across all netball associations in NSW, to raise much needed funds for the charity. Although the final figure is not known at this stage, players and committee members enjoyed the fun day of ‘Crazy Hair and Sock Day’. A huge thank you to Elsa Cusack who cooked magnificent cakes that were sold out very quickly.

Best dressed in NetSetGo were Zoe Amery and second Chloe Amery. Best dressed were Ella White in Giants and Tara Higgins in Possums. Well done to the Vixens and Joeys for best dressed teams. Elsa Cusack was awarded best dressed socks.

Friday Netball

Friday netball continues this week from 5pm until 6pm for any boys and girls who would like to learn more skills and have fun playing netball. Friday netball is free and players do not have to be registered or play in the Saturday competition to join in the fun.

Learning Umpires

Learning umpires are very welcome and any parents who would like to learn the rules or how to umpire should also come along to Friday netball or ask at Saturday competitions. It is very handy sometimes for parents to learn to umpire and help out if an established umpire is unavailable.

Canteen Duty

Thank you to the volunteers who have helped in the canteen. Everyone is reminded that orders for hot chips should be placed during the 11-10 round of games, so that the chips can be cooked and ready when games are finished.

Long Weekend

There will be no Saturday competition over the June long weekend

and no Friday netball either.
