Jewellery and Netball

This is a very early warning to all parents (and all players) regarding jewellery. Jewellery or any adornments cannot be worn when a player is playing
netball. There is no taping of jewellery, including earrings.

Parents please DO NOT get your children's ears pierced during the netball season. THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PLAY IF THEY CANNOT TAKE
THEIR EARRING OUT!

Cancellations:

Hibiscus Coast (HBC): Netball is only cancelled in extreme weather conditions, i.e. Thunder and lightning. The message on the HBC phone at the centre will be updated if there is a cancellation. So if you are concerned about the weather, please phone (09) 424-2318 as close as possible to game time, for an update. As far as possible, team coaches and/or managers will be notified as soon as cancellation notices are circulated.
Forfeits: If your team cannot play on the designated game time, it is imperative that the team coach/manager contacts Mrs Raelene Beguely to organise the cancellations with the centre and the affected opposition teams. It is very important to do this through the formal channels to ensure the communication is circulated to the correct parties.
