Registration

Registration

Club registration is to be done via PlayHQ.
Registrations online will open on 1st January, 2024 and will close on Friday 29th February, 2024 so that we can grade the teams.

Note: Kids play in the age group for the age they are turning this year. eg. if you are 8 now and will turn 9 before the end of the year, then you will play in the 9 Years

New Players

We will be at Wests Bowling Club, Tauranga Road, New Lambton for all new players and players who have not registered online on the following date. If you come to the Bowling Club to register you must bring your Active Kids Rebate Voucher with you.  

Date: Saturday 3rd February, 2024
Time: 9am – 2pm
Venue: Wests Bowling Club

Active Kids Vouchers

As you would be aware the current Active Kids voucher program is expiring tonight, with the new program and eligibility requirements beginning on February 1st (tomorrow).

Eligible families can apply for the new Active and Creative Kids Vouchers from tomorrow given the following parameters: the child is a NSW resident and aged between 4.5 and 18 years old; and, the family receives:

  • Family Tax Benefit Part A, or
  • Family Tax Benefit Part B, or
  • Both Family Tax Benefit Part A and Family Tax Benefit Part B.

Netball NSW has been notified of a delay in the integration between the new program platform and PlayHQ.

This is a sport wide issue, not just affecting netball.

Functionality is expected to come online in the coming week, in the meantime could you please ask your members to follow the process listed below when registering.

When participants start the registration process, as an interim solution, they will be redirected to a google form within PlayHQ and asked to provide Netball NSW with their voucher number.

 Netball NSW will verify and redeem the Active and Creative Kids Voucher on the participants behalf, and in return will provide each participant with a Netball NSW voucher number to be used to finalise the registration process (reducing registration by $50) in PlayHQ.

Please note that manual redemption of Active and Creative Kids Vouchers after a PlayHQ registration has been completed, will NOT be available under the new Program.

This is a short term solution, and we appreciate your understanding.

If you have any questions, please reach out to registrar@newcastlenetball.com.au

Announcement Dates for Teams

All Teams will be announced at the West Leagues Netball Courts this year – Dates and Times listed below

This will allow all players to be advised what team they are in and to meet their coach and discuss training days etc. We ask that all Players and Parents attend on their designated day which is listed below.

This will ensure that all players and parents will be fully informed at the earliest time and all at once – this should reduce the number of individual phone calls enquiring after teams etc that we have had in the past.
