All boys and girls wanting to play in the Saturday Junior Mixed Competition must have made contact with the committee, either by completing a "Friend form", or emailing Secretary Melissa email seretary.forbesnetball@gmail.com
Teams for the competition will be formed after this weekend's Gala Day.
Timeslots for Saturday netball are NetSetGo at 9-30 am and Divisions 1 and 2 will be at 10-30 am.
Divisions 1 and 2 are for boys and girls under 15 years, and players can ask to play with a friend in the same team in the competition.
Saturday netball is free to all the boys and girls, if they use their Active Kids Voucher of $100-00.
Registrations are open, and anyone needing help, should go to Forbes Netball Facebook page for directions, or come to the office on Saturday.
The new uniforms will be on display at the courts, with dresses for the girls and T shirts for the boys.
The uniforms are supplied free to all players while playing in the Saturday Mixed competition.
Thank you to the Forbes Services Memorial Club for donating $1000 towards the cost of the new uniforms.
Volunteers will be needed for the season to be successful.
Volunteer coaches for all the teams will be needed, from NetSetGo to the junior competition, and volunteer umpires will also be needed to umpire the games.
Volunteers will also be needed at the beginning of the day, to help with post pads, so the games can start on time.
Help will be given to anyone who would like to coach or umpire the junior teams.
Volunteers may put their name down at the office on Saturday, or email Melissa on the above contact.
Boys Gala Day today
A Boys Gala Day will be held today, Friday March 22, at the Forbes netball courts from 3-30 pm till 6 pm.
The Gala Day is free to all boys who would like to learn more skills and have fun at netball.
All participants will receive a free netball, to help them on their journey of playing netball.
Anyone who would like to participate in the Gala Day is asked to email Secretary, Melissa, on above contact, so numbers will be known, making the day run smoothly.
Thank you
The Committee would like to thank Sonia Dukes from Forbes Public School, for a fantastic Primary Schools Gala Day. Thank you to the volunteer teenagers from both Red Bend College and Forbes High School. Thank you to Forbes Shire Council, for marking out the grass courts for games to be played. Without these courts the boys and girls would have missed out on playing netball.
Susan Pettitt clinic
Australian goal shooter Susan Pettitt attended the Forbes netball courts last Sunday, to hold a General Skills day and her popular Goal Shooting academy.
The day was very popular.
