Kellyville Netball Club is a prominent sports club located in Sydney, Australia. With a rich history and a strong presence in the local netball community, the club welcomes players of all ages and skill levels, from 5-year-olds to seniors.
All games and training sessions take place at the Baulkham Hills Netball (BHN) Courts, situated at 1 Wellgate Ave in Kellyville. The club provides allocated training times which are determined by the availability of the coaches and will be communicated closer to the start of the season. It is mandatory for all players to attend their designated training and game sessions, which last for an hour.
Friday nights and Saturdays are reserved for playing matches, with the specific times and grades being set by the BHN association. These times and grades are not under the control of the club and cannot be altered, as they are based on the number of teams competing and the availability of courts. It is essential for players aged 7 and above to have and wear the official Kellyville Netball Club uniform when taking the court.
Grading sessions are compulsory for players between the ages of 9 and 15, as it helps determine their team placement. New players aged 15-19 will also need to attend grading unless they are already part of a registered team. The exact date and location of the grading will be announced once the number of registered players is known.
The registration process for different age groups varies. NET players (5-6 years) will participate in skills sessions throughout the season, with more information being provided closer to the start. SET players (7-8 years) typically have their training and games scheduled for Friday nights, while GO players (9 years) have the same on Friday nights as well. All players in the 9-14 age groups must attend grading.
Junior players aged 10-14 have their games on Saturday mornings, while intermediate, reserve, and senior players (15+) play on Saturday afternoons. Senior players are required to register as a team and submit their team list to the club's registrar prior to registration.
For players with disabilities, of any age, it is recommended to contact the registrar before registering to ensure appropriate arrangements can be made. Non-player registration is also available, with interested individuals encouraged to reach out to the registrar for more information.
Online registration is mandatory for all players, and payment is required at the time of registration to complete the process. The registration fees cover various components, including Netball Australia and Netball NSW fees, BHN registration, club administration and running costs, and the umpiring fee.
In the event that a player wishes to deregister, they must adhere to the guidelines set by BHSNA and Netball NSW. Written notification of the request should be sent to the club's registrar via email. If the deregistration is due to medical reasons, a medical certificate must be provided, and the player should not have participated in any matches during the season. Deregistration is ultimately handled at the association and Netball NSW level, and there may be an administration fee imposed by Kellyville Netball Club, although this fee can be waived at the discretion of the executive.
For any further information or inquiries, individuals are encouraged to visit the club's website or contact the registrar directly via email. With a commitment to fostering a love for netball and providing a supportive community for players, Kellyville Netball Club stands as a reputable and inclusive sports club in Sydney.
