PLC Netball Club

The Club Annual General Meeting was held this week on Monday 22^nd July. Over the last 12 months, there has been significant change in the Club with us reaching our mandate of becoming a ‘Club for girls of all ages and all abilities’. This goal was achieved by fielding teams from Division 1 to U7 in the 2019 season and was achieved through the hard work and support of the College, Committee, coaches, team managers, parents and the players themselves.

Our committee for the 2020 season is:

• President / Secretary: Trevor Colton (Arabians)
• Treasurer / Vice-President: Christian Gorham (Thoroughbreds / Chargers)
• Registration Secretary: Jo Withnall (Unicorns / Pintos / Ponies)
• Assistant Registrar: Steve Rattey (Brumbies)
• Media Manager: Trisha McFadyen (Fillies)
• Social Events Coordinator: Lorraine Wilkie (Pintos)
• Equipment Manager: Kylie O’Rourke (Ponies)
• Community Liaison: Ann Johnston (Shetlands)
• Ladies Team Manager: Carrie Wortley (Palominos)
• Director of Coaching: Michelle Dufty
• Director of Umpiring: Tayla Gorham (Thoroughbreds)
• Club Captains: Ella Ousley (Arabians) and Amie Hague (Brumbies)

It is extremely pleasing to have achieved the following Committee outcomes:

• 10 of our 11 teams this year are represented by at least one Committee member;
• Three of our Junior players hold executive positions;
• The size and diversity of professional skills continues to mature; and
• We have two members from outside of the Pacific community.

An important addition to the team is the establishment of a Community Liaison Officer, Ann Johnston. Ann is a professional Social Worker specialising in Hospital Emergency and Paediatric related community support. Consequently, her professional expertise is a great asset to the Club. It is also important to note that the role has been established to facilitate resolutions. If you have any areas you would like to discuss with Ann, please contact her via: netballcommunity@pacluth.qld.edu.au.
