Merry Christmas & Happy 2020

Hopefully you've all registered for next season already, but if not, please do so as soon as possible so that we know what vacancies need still to be filled. As you can see below, CDNA requires finalised team lists quite early in January so all registrations must be completed by the 15th January 2020.

Register Now

If you have decided not to re-register for 2020, please let your team manager, or registrations@stanthonysnetball.org.au know.

Below is the contents of the last email from CDNA for 2019

TRAINING COURTS - Please submit all training court requests (including re-applying for existing bookings) to secretary@stanthonysnetball.org.au ASAP

Requests have already started to come through for training court allocations next year. Please remember that we’re starting completely afresh, so all requests have to be made again. As per usual, they will be on a first come, first served basis and then I will be able to speak with you if needed.

PLEASE NOTE: The CDNA Rep team training has been moved to a Monday night next year, meaning there’s more opportunity for Sunday night trainings if clubs/teams want them. That does also mean there is less availability on Monday nights too though….

NEW DIVISIONS

As discussed previously, we’re proud to be offering mixed competitions for the 15/U and 17/U age groups next year and changing the 25/U age group to now be Open age. Just a reminder…

• Whilst we are offering the mixed divisions, it is not compulsory for clubs/teams to enter teams into these divisions if they don’t wish.
• Whilst these new divisions are getting up and running, we will be somewhat flexible with the number of boys playing in each team. Meaning we have temporarily made the minimum amount of boys required zero (0).
• We will be closely monitoring the entries into the Open competition and will be grading accordingly
• Please note the age requirements of each age group in our Bylaws

COURSES

We’d love to offer our members the opportunity to take part in various courses throughout next year, including coaching accreditation, coaches in the field and MyNetball training courses. Please be in touch if these are things you’d like to take part in.

BYLAWS

The CDNA By-Laws have been updated and will come into effect in 2020. You may send any comments via secretary@stanthonysnetball.org.au

NEW OFFICE HOURS

• Mondays (9am-4pm)
• Tuesdays (9am-3pm)
