It was very entertaining to watch such original dance moves from some of our division two girls. This week also saw for the first time this competition a couple of forfeits with numbers being low in both divisions.
With this in mind, could players please let coaches or Maree/Nic know if you will be away as this will make it easier to organise teams each Saturday.
We would like to thank all of our beautiful girls who sub up every week to help out other divisions run smoothly. Not only do you give up your time you show great sportsmanship towards the teams your involved with.
This weekend will be the last round before our three week break for school holidays. Netball will be back on Saturday, July 27
To all families who are travelling, stay safe on our roads and have a great holiday.
Good luck to the Parkes Representative girls heading off to Sydney next weekend for the NSW Junior State Titles.

Two shots for practice only. Our next shoot is at 10am Sunday, June 30 and will be at ordinary targets at both rangers. Before you can get a licence you must establish a genuine reason to hold same and the five common ones are, collecting and target shooting but you must be a member of a shooting club, recreational hunting but you must have written permission from a farmer, farming but you can't shoot off your farm on this licence and the last being employment. There are other rare reasons and for these you will have to ring the firearms registry to find out what they are.
