July Good News Month
Netball 2025 season is well into winter with Saturday games played under blue skies & sunshine, only a little rain, & the right amount of chilliness. All reasons players love outdoor netball!
Lovely Ladders - 5 of our 7 teams are sitting in the top 4 of their grade ladders, teams 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7. Everyone is very excited but not complacent. Games 11-14 follow a big break where traditionally “the wheels fall off” for many teams. Games have not all been won easily, so nothing is a given for the final series.
New National Umpires Badges – congratulations to our new National ‘B’ Badge awarded to Bridget Boyd and a National ‘C’ Badge awarded to Stephanie Davison. Both well earned!
Hart Senior State Titles - the Comets Connection
5 players - 3 in MWNA State U15s team Matilda Whitehead, Jessa Harpur and Tahlia Stone and 2 men from MWNA Men’s Div 1 team, Grant McLeod and Kyan McDougall.
4 umpires - Lisa Davison, National ‘B’ Badge, Comets Umpires' Convenor, umpired and mentored. Haydn Mackay, National ‘A’ Badge, mentoring. Katie Langsford, National ‘B’ Badge, who we recently welcomed back to our club, also umpired
1 Coach - Colette Longley Advanced Coaching accreditation, again coached her recently formed men’s team into 4th place in Div 1 against a stronger group than in 2024.
Final Series Ahead
With 4 weeks before the final series, teams looking to capitalise on their hard work, need reliability, amazing communication, and maintenance of fitness. Good luck helps too!
WELCOME TO COMETS NORTHERN BEACHES NETBALL CLUB
ABOUT US
Comets Northern Beaches Netball Club has been associated with MWNA for 40+ years. The first Comets team played in the Spring Comp of 1979. Our members were an Australian umpire, a retired international player, a mother of an Australian player, the Australian physiotherapist, a National ‘A’ Badge umpire and three Level 1 coaches. A club composed of so many stars needed a name to suit & Comets came to being.
Our teams train at Curl Curl, but we do not draw from any particular area. Our connections are our friends & those who come looking for something different. More recently, we became Comets Northern Beaches to separate us from other Comets clubs in nearby associations. Our draw card is positive experience. The stability of our teams provides for successful seasons; our reputation comes from that consistent success.
We are small enough for the personal touch, big enough to be competitive, a club with the depth of talent to be involved in many levels of the Association.
