PLC Netball Club

Well done to all teams on another awesome week. Seeing the girls competing and enjoying themselves is a great reminder of the importance of club sport.

Last Saturday morning, this year’s junior umpiring course commenced. PLC Netball has 10 girls from our Arabians, Fillies and Brumby teams attending the course. As the smallest club within the association, it was a proud moment to see our girls making up one third of the entire course. The course runs until June at which time the girls will begin to officiate the association’s junior games. Umpiring, the role of Club Captain and coaching opportunities are aimed at developing and fostering leadership opportunities for the senior girls. We wish the girls success in the course and their future umpiring endeavours.       

Over the weekend there were a number of fine performances across all of the teams and the girls continue to develop and warm to the season ahead. Once again it was difficult to select our players of the week, however this week the recipients are:

• Unicorns – Emily Lengenberg for her enthusiasm and effort; 
• Mustangs – Zoe Woods for an awesome display;
• Ponies – Mia Hetherington for her all-round performance;
• Brumbies – Gabrielle Rattey for her improved foot work;
• Fillies – Jewel Jamison for her defensive play; and
• Arabians – Tayla Gorham for her a well-rounded performance.
