GENERAL BUSINESS 3 Donegal Tce Armidale NSW 2350 20th November 2012 The President Armidale District Netball Association P.O. Box 1209 ARMIDALE NSW 2350 Dear Madam RE: SUN PROTECTION POLICY AND UNIFORMS My daughter has played netball for 6 very enjoyable years with ADNA. The past two years she has played with CSC. The uniforms that CSC and various other teams in the senior divisions wear are the “bodysuit” style of uniform. As Armidale is situated 980 metres above sea level we are exposed to high levels of UV light. While my daughter wears sunscreen when she is playing netball I feel that the bodysuit uniform doesn’t protect her very well from sunburn. I have also written a letter to CSC asking them to consider a uniform change. Netball Australia has a Junior Netball Policy (5-17) which mentions under its environment section the following: Organisers of netball competitions and events have a responsibility to protect young people, to the greatest extent practical, from the dangers of sun exposure. Young people should be encouraged or obligated to wear appropriate clothing and soft brimmed visors, and apply a 30+ sunscreen on exposed skin. Netball organisers should also maximise the provision of shaded areas at venues and events, or even erect artificial shades. So I am writing to ask ADNA if they would consider introducing some Sunsmart policies to protect our children. I have enclosed a copy of the Sun Protection Policy for Sporting Groups from the NSW Cancer Council for you to consider. You may also like to consider using the Sun Sound is a short, catchy jingle designed to be played at regular intervals on loud speakers in outdoor areas, as a friendly reminder for young people to protect their skin with hats, sunscreen, sunglasses, clothing and finding shade.
