Coach nets a scholarship Southern River Stars and Crusaders Netball Club coach Blair Pasco is one of five winners of the inaugural Bette Allison coaching scholarships. 1 4th March 2017 The phone call that changed Australian Diamond Courtney Bruce’s life. This is Courtney Bruce’s story… Courtney Bruce tells me she doesn’t like phone calls all that much. As a stand-alone claim, this would be unremarkable, except for the fact we’re on the phone together when she tells me. I laugh, and point it out. Okay, she concedes, in the past she hasn’t liked them, but she’s getting better. And there’s probably a good reason why that is. At 23, Bruce is recognized as one of those cliched ‘up-and- comers’ on our Australian netball scene; a spotlight rests on her progress, expectations grow with every game she plays for Perth’s West Coast Fever. And she’s receiving call after call from selectors telling her good news. The first of these call-ups came from Australian Diamonds coach Lisa Alexander last year. She wanted Bruce on the Diamond’s national training camp in Canberra. “I hate talking on the phone,” Bruce reiterates. “It’s especially daunting talking to my Diamonds coach because I never know if it’ll be good or bad news.” It would be one of the most important phone calls the then 22-year-old would receive, a dream offer for any young netballer across the country. And it was one she didn’t want to pick up. “It was exciting, it was something I had wanted for a long time. I don’t remember much of the conversation, I just remember saying yes, yes, yes 100 times and thank you 100 times.” Bruce was born in Perth and has played netball “for as long as she can remember”. From the age of about six, her parents threw her and her two younger sisters into the game. It would come to be a very clever move. The gun defender’s break-out season came in 2016 when she managed to rattle some of the competition’s strongest goalies, earning her a spot in the Diamonds squad by the end of the year. But it was running out with the girls in Round One of the re-branded Suncorp Super League that was especially memorable for the 23-year-old. “It was a really good feeling,” she says, recalling those first few moments running onto the court. “It felt like a long time coming. There’s a lot of WA girls in the team and there was this big sense of pride, playing for our home state was so good.” 2 And she’s not wrong. The league has been a long time coming, as has the exposure it has inevitably brought. Channel Nine have jumped on board, and some of our nation’s best athletes are getting the kind of attention they’ve always deserved. And although women’s sport seems to be having a moment, it hasn’t always been the way “There’s been so much more exposure for us since Channel Nine came on board and since the league has been broadcast on free-to-air. The media has been more interested and that’s been huge.” In comparison to most women’s sport, netball has never been short of talent. And despite the poor pay and the poor exposure the sport has received in the past, young netballers have never been short of a role model growing up. “There were always some phenomenal athletes to look up to, so growing up and wanting to be a netballer was never a problem. “But for sure, it’s easier for young girls now, they know they can actually have a career in the sport, especially if it keeps going the way it is now.” It’s great, and indeed we are talking more and more about women’s sport, but the fact I have to ask Bruce how she juggles completing university playing sport for your country is telling. She’s currently trying to get through a psychology degree while trying to crack into the national team for one of the most popular sports in our country. Her answer is simple: there’s never been another option. “We’ve always been taught we have had to balance it all, even at the AIS (Australian Institute of Sport), because there’s no other option. I like having more on my plate, though. I don’t like having time to kill. “Since my time at the AIS, we always had sessions on time management teaching us how to balance these things. Obviously, netball has come a long way, but we’re still nowhere near where the men are at, so we’ve always had to balance doing more than one thing.” So now that so many more young girls will grow up believing they can play sport, what advice would she give them? “To have fun and enjoy it,” she says. “I play my best when I’m loving it.” Belinda Hare our UDO at Southern Districts along with Dean Probert were asked to umpire one of the West Coast Fever training session at the State Netball Centre. 3 1st – 31st March 7th of March registrations for Winter Competition recorded 204 teams. 28th of March - AGM EXECUTIVE President Jenny Maras Vice President Jayne Lill Competitions Sue Neal Development Liaison Officer Tania Walters Members Representative Jennifer Thompson Game Day Supervisor Kerry Dallimore Finance Mary Cash Grading Cassie McGann Property & Uniform Officer Caroline Southam APPOINTMENTS Development Officer Bev Gallager Umpires Development Officer Belinda Hares Administrator Nicole Prothero Cleaner/Office Assistant Lesley Staines 4 GRADING Grading Convenor Cassie McGann Committee Mary Cash - Crusaders Bev Jones - Harlequins Jacki Fair - Canning Vale Firebirds Julie How - Huntingdale Megan Logue - Zodiacs Carrie Harris - Bletchley Park Gavin Domjahn- Jetz COMPETITIONS Competitions Convenor Sue Neal Committee Senior Convenor - Kris Richardson Junior Convenor - Sian Jenkins-Bragg NSG Convenor - Marjion Vagg Fast 5 Convenor - Helen Robinson FINANCE Nicole Prothero, Mary Cash, Kim Prescott-Brown GAME DAY SUPERVISOR Supervisor Convenor Kerry Dallimore Committee Cindy Wells Shana Fitzgerald Kim Prescott-Brown - Resigned Carrie Harris Kylie Giles Jen Thompson UMPIRES COACHING Umpires Development Officer Belinda Hares Committee Natalie Robertson, Amy Harvey, Dean Probert MEMBERS REP Committee Cultural Liaison Officer Valerie Maxwell PROTEST & DISPUTES Helen Robinson – Chairperson Kim Prescott-Brown - Resigned Julie Pisani Bev Jones Irene McKay Helen Robinson 5 IRIS JAMES AWARD WINNER Nil LIFE MEMBERS Nil APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR AND PATRONESS Auditors John A Osborne Patronesses Helen Robinson and Helen Prince Squad Umpires - UDO Belinda Lloyd-Hares, Umpires Natalie Robertson, Lisa McDowell, Amy Harvey, Belinda Lloyd-Hares, Dean Probert, Kristen Lee Hosking, Lauren McLean, Meg McFetridge, Georgie Baxter, Tahlia Bennett.

    SCHOOL SPORT AUSTRALIA 12 & U and 15 & U NETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS HISTORY The championships had their origins in the Australian State Schools' Basketball Association developed originally for primary schools and played predominately on grass. Interstate carnivals commenced in 1923 and continued in 1924 when a number of exchanges between individual states occurred. In 1924 visiting teachers from Victoria, Queensland and South Australia to New South Wales made exhaustive inquiries into the question of girls’ games with the view to inaugurating interstate contests. In 1925 South Australia hosted New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland in both a junior and senior competition, one of the games attracted over 2000 spectators. South Australia was victorious in the junior section and South Australia and Victoria both finished in first place in the senior. This competition continued in 1926 in New South Wales and 1927 in Victoria. With the introduction of a perpetual trophy the first officially recognised Australian State Schoolgirls Basketball (Netball) Championship was played at the Practising School, Brisbane in 1928. The final, on the afternoon of the August 22nd, was before a large crowd. Victoria convincingly beat NSW 23 goals to 4 goals. Mr John Donald Howie donated the perpetual trophy following the win of Victoria. Mr Howie was a Victorian Councillor from 1922 – 1932 and Mayor of Camberwell in 1927 and 1928. Australian schoolgirls tournaments were organised to combine both a netball competition and an educational tour, When girls weren’t playing they attended lessons at the local school or made educational day trips. In Brisbane the girls visited Toowoomba, the Olympic Tyre and Rubber Works in Geebung and took a trip to the South Coast of Queensland.
