You miss 100% of the shots you don't take
Welcome to our first quarterly newsletter! We have had feedback from members that the preferred method of communication is through email as well as on social media. So here we are with this newsletter as a way to keep in touch with as many members as possible!
The 2022/2023 summer season has been off to a strong start with the first seven rounds already under our belts. We have kept everyone updated on each team's weekly scores on Facebook, or they can be found on PlayHQ under Ladybirds Netball Club. We have had a busy few months, officially getting our new uniforms on the court, having a few weeks of practising the new club chant, putting together our strategic plan and celebrating 50 years of the Ladybirds Netball Club (check out our TikTok video of the night here: http://bit.ly/3Ejiu9i)

50 year celebration
We recently celebrated our 50th year as a club with a full club party! We had a BBQ, cake, balloons and a raffle (congratulations to all winners). Big thank you to all who attended and assisted in making this a great night for the club. Thanks to Bakery 77 for the cake and Jodielee Photography for the photos of the night. We hope to hold many more full club events at training in the future. It was great to celebrate with you all, here is to 50 more years!
Photo Night
Summer photo night will be on Thursday 8th December at SUNA

3. Click on the ‘club logo’ tab
4. Choose your preferred photos
5. Enter the player's first & last name and select your team from the drop-down menu (important: ensure the athlete’s name is input correctly, as this is what will appear on the photo).

- Individual portrait photos are 6 x 9 inch and landscape team photos are 12 x 8 inch
