NetSetGo, at 9.30am, is for all players aged from 5 years to 9/10 years to learn the skills of netball and have lots of fun.

Training for any players aged from 9/10 years to 13 years is held each Saturday at 10-30 am immediately after NSG. Players will learn skills at a more advanced session, and all boys and girls are welcome.

This session is also training for the carnival teams that are playing on Sundays.

Although players playing in the carnivals must be registered with NNSW, anyone can come along on Saturdays and try the programs before they register.

When players register, the registration will carry through to the Netball Forbes Junior Mixed Competition that will be played in the spring on Wednesday nights, in line with the very popular adult competitions.

Wednesdays will be a family affair, when players will join the Junior Mixed competition and play at 5 pm and 6 pm, and the adults will play in the usual timeslots of 6 pm, 7 pm and 8 pm. Parents have already volunteered to help run the Wednesday junior mixed competition.

Teams have been entered into the Parkes carnival on Sunday, players are asked to please check in with their team organisers.

The next carnival will be Bathurst on May 23, and entries close today (Friday). Dates for future carnivals after Bathurst are Dubbo May 30, and Orange or West Wyalong on June 6.

Parents are asked to please check with team organisers for nomination closing dates.
