Welcome to our June Newsletter,
A copy of this newsletter and those that follow monthly, are now available to read online, via our new Netball Northern Zone Website (www.netballnorthern.co.nz).
If you have additional staff you would like to add to our newsletter email list please contact
Trish Wilcox (Community Netball Manager) has been out on the road visiting centres, attending open days (Pukekohe, Manurewa) , Rep Tournaments (ANC, NNH) with a trip up north to Hibiscus Coast, Rodney and Kaipara. It was great to see all three centre Executives out on court playing,umpiring or coaching!
Thank you for your hospitality and look forward to another visit.
Hamish Barton (High Performance Manager) June has been a busy month for the U23 programme both teams have been training hard and competed in the ANC U23 tournament which was a great chance for both teams to have a good hit out. We facilitated 2 managers’ workshops at the beginning of the month which were fantastic and were well attended by the various Centre Managers.
Thank you to Lynette Brady (Netball North Harbour), Jill Clapcott (NZSS Manager) and Chris Tennant (Mystics Manager) for giving their time to come and chat to the managers.
Keep up the great work guys and all the best to those Centres around the Zone who are preparing for the NZAG Rep tournaments!
Tash Osborne (Marketing and Communications Manager) this month we are proud to see our new Netball Northern Zone Website go live this week. www.netballnorthern.co.nz .
We are adding to this daily, and thank you to those who are sending me in Tournament Flyers, or key dates you would like advertised on the site.
The aim is for the website to be the “hub” of all things netball in our zone, so please feel free to send me through your information.
Along with the website, we have a Northern Zone Facebook Page http://www.facebook.com/netballnorthernzone, again would be great if centres could “like” the page, which would enable me to share and promote your centres activities and news.
So another busy month, but with some great progress being made in all areas. Our Under 23 Teams have been selected, dresses designed, and trainings underway as they build up to the main competition in July.
It will be great to see how the teams perform this weekend in Tauranga for their first hit-out. It is fantastic to see young talent on display and structures and processes starting to get underway for the long term aim of high performance development being available for such talent. It’s also a busy time now with the LG Mystics 2013 season coming to a close. We are undertaking our usual full review of the team, players, and organisation over the next few weeks. It has most certainly been a challenging and difficult season for all involved, and while our on-court results have been disappointing, we have been able to take some really positive elements out of this season that will help put us in a good place moving in to 2014. We are also in the process of getting out to the centres to present the Zone strategic plan, so hope to see as many of you as possible over the next few weeks.
Thank you for taking the time to catch up on the Zone news - if you have any feedback or would like more (or less!) information, please let us know!
Kind Regards
Julie Paterson – CEO Netball Northern Zone
