Banksia Park Netball Club
Yes we're a small club, but we're all connected and growing. We can send 3 teams into the finals and they will all win. Most of the coaches are parents, but that makes them more determined to win but also to improve the girls in their skills. The only issue is money, they are always asking for it and have many fundraisers. (Although this is because some people don't pay their dues.)
My daughter has played for Banksia for 6 seasons now and we love the family atmosphere here. Even their AGM includes everyone and isn't just some dull occasion. I'm always impressed at the turnout at their awards ceremonies too, even from the senior side. Coaches are encouraging and empowering. Parents and friends attend games, even if it's not 'their' team.
Half a star off because (probably mostly because they're small) their admin could do with a boost, can't believe the number of times they talk about people not paying or that we get late notifications. Of course I could always go on the committee if I were that annoyed - and they'd welcome me even more into the family, because that's what they do.
