Netball News

May 24, 2018 by Maggi Barnard

The Saturday competition of the Forbes Netball Association (FNA) was in full swing last weekend when all players received their team uniforms. Coaches are still needed for all the teams and volunteers are asked to come forward. Thank you in anticipation.

New players are still welcome in all divisions and anyone interested in playing should send an email to secretary.forbesnetball@ gmail.com or come to the office on Saturday.

Friday Netball

Friday netball will be organised from 5pm till 6pm each week, through school terms. Friday netball is free to all boys and girls who would like to learn more skills and have fun playing netball.

Players do not have to be registered or play Saturday competition to join in. Anyone interested in volunteering help at Friday netball is very welcome. New coaches and new umpires wanting to learn should join in the session.

Regional Carnivals

There are two regional carnivals in the next two weeks where an 11 years team will be playing. Boys and girls turning 10 or 11 in 2018 can play in the teams. An 11 years team has been entered for the Dubbo regional carnival on 27th May. The first 10 players to nominate for each carnival will make up the team. Parents may email as above, or come to the office on Saturday to nominate.

A bus will be running to the carnivals and all players and parents

can travel on the bus provided. Parkes carnival will have private

transport. Volunteer umpires are needed for all carnivals.

Canteen Duty

Parents and teams are rostered to do canteen duty each week. The canteen is the main fundraiser of the FNA and thank you to the parents who have already volunteered working in the canteen.
