Hart Senior State Titles.
11th June.
Day three recap:
Opens finished off the competition by playing a couple of teams in the top four.
After a few tough matches, they came away with three wins and three losses, leaving them in 7th position.

The Under 17s also experienced three wins and three losses on their last day of competition.
They kept their heads up high and should be proud of their effort.

The Under 15s had a couple of nail biting finishes in their games, coming away with one loss, three wins and two draws.
There was not much between the top of the leader board with the Under 15s ending up in a well deserved fourth place.

Well done to everyone for the effort put in over the whole weekend.
You gave it your all and left everything you had on the court. We could not be prouder.♡♡

       
   
   

Hart Senior State Titles.

Hart Senior State Titles.
9th June.
Day two recap:
The Opens team has continued their run with four wins, two losses and a bye today.
Manly Warringah, currently placed second on the ladder, proved too strong in the fifth game (again).
At the end of day two the Opens team is sitting in sixth position, with a spot in the top four still within reach.

The Under 17s came out with a point to prove today.
They came away with four wins, two losses and a draw.
At the end of day two the Under 17s team is sitting in the middle of the pack.
We will have to wait and see what tomorrow brings.

The Under 15s continued their winning streak today pulling five convincing wins, one draw and a bye.
They are currently sitting in fourth position on the ladder, due to play the teams ahead of them tomorrow.
They will no doubt have their sights set on finals.
We wish everyone the best of luck as they move into the final day!

       
   

Hart Senior State Titles.
8th June.
Day one recap:
The Open's team is off to a good start with five wins and one loss.
Randwick proved too strong in their fifth game, marking the only loss for the day.
A mixture of tight and comfortable margins does not necessarily reflect the calibre of the games being played.

The Under 17s had a rough start to the competition, playing a number of difficult games.
They experienced two wins and four losses, with some tight games that could've gone either way.

The Under 15s came out all guns blazing on day one, with four wins in a row.
Unfortunately Temora and Lakeside proved too strong in the last games of the day.

Net Set Go Red.
10th May.
Attention all Net Set Go Red participants, coaches and parents!!
Just a reminder that from round 8 (1 June 2019) some of the rules will change, as follows:
   Size of ball will be size 5 (currently can be either 4 or 5 as discussed with opposition).
   Held ball will convert to 3 second ruling (currently 4 seconds).
   Infringements such as short pass, replay, offside, contact, obstruction, footwork and breaking will be penalised
   by way of free or penalty passes, rather than per Net Set Go rules.
   We will continue to alternate centres, as well as not keeping a record of the score.
   You should also continue to rotate all players fairly through the positions.
   This rule will change once they are playing in the 10 years competition.
If you have any questions, please contact us.

Competition Starts.
9th April.
One thousand netballers aged five through to seniors took to the Charlestown Netball courts on Saturday for Round 1 of the 2018 winter competition.
On a warmish day it proved to be hard yakka for the older players, who had not been involved in regular training over the spring/summer months.
The newly completed courts at the southern end of the complex were not used, but according to Charlestown netball president, Di Pascoe, are only a week or two away from becoming operational.
The same goes for the new 40-space car park, which is due for completion shortly and will help to alleviate some of the congestion which takes place on Saturdays in the vicinity of the courts.
