Werri netballers turning heads

Werri Beach 6 turned out in fine style and looked magnificent in their new uniform to provide one of the highlights of Kiama Netball on Saturday, having updated their shirt to enhance the already stylish skirt.

Once again this week, Grace Philips defended well in goal defence and Emily Tomkins played well in goal attack. Harper Martin was very busy in centre court playing wing attack.

Junior Netball Round 7

It is probably timely to remind parents of the need to contain their derogatory comments and not indulge in the childish behaviour of denigrating junior umpires.

The Kiama Netball Association takes a very dim view of some of the comments heard from grown ups who should know better.

Please remember that these juniors are doing their best and also acknowledge that they are doing the job and you’re not, which is probably even sadder because maybe you should be to realize what a thankless job it is and also remember that without them, we don’t have a game for your girls to play each week.

In the 10 years competition this week, Kiama Downs 8 defeated Werri Beach 5 by 5 goals to 2, and Gainsborough 17 defeated Gerringong 7 by 6 goals to 1 and in the final game in this division, Beachettes 11 defeated Kiama Central 12 by 12 goals to 5.
