Netball letter for interested students

Monday 31^st March                            

Dear Parents/Caregivers

Your child has indicated an interest in playing Netball for the school in the Waitakere Netball Competition. 

Games will be played at the following locations:

·        At this stage I have not received any information regarding the organisation of Year 1-2 netball for this year.  I have heard that it will be played width wise across one third of a court and there will only be 4 players on the court at one time.  There will also be no set positions.  Please let me know your thoughts on whether you are happy to take part.  We have discussed having in-house practices and games for this age group at school following the traditional netball format. All games will be played on Thursday evenings from 4:20pm & 5:00pm

·        Games played at Te Pai Courts, Henderson on Thursday evenings from 4:20pm & 5:00pm for Year 3.

·        Games are played at Te Pai Courts, Henderson on Saturdays.

·        Year 4 Times: 8:30am & 9:20am

·        Year 5 Times: 9:20am, 10:10am & 11:00am

·        Year 6 Times: 11:50am, 12:40am & 1:30pm

Until the structure of the Year 1 and 2 netball season is confirmed I am unable to provide an indication of fees for the season.  The cost per player for Year 3 will be $50, for Year 4 the cost will be $60 and for Year 5 and 6 the cost will be $75.  The fees for Year 5 and 6 include the cost of hiring umpires for games.

We need keen people who would like to help by coaching and managing teams.  So, if your child would like to play and you are able to coach please complete the online registration form by going to the Arahoe School webpage and clicking on the netball registration button on the right hand side.  Registrations will close on Tuesday 8^th April.

Again this will only be possible with the support of parents.  If we do not get coaches and players for the different age groups then we will not be able to field teams. 

Thanks

Arron Leaity
