    NETBALL HUTT VALLEY NETBALL HUTT VALLEY ANNUAL REPORT 2013 ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Notice of 2014 Annual General Meeting Notice of 2013 Annual General Meeting Agenda 2014 Annual General Meeting Agenda 2013 Annual General Meeting Minutes of the 2013 Annual General MeetingMinutes of the 2012 Annual General Meeting 2012 Annual Report 2013 Annual Report 1 FOREWORD FROM OUR MAYOR Grassroots sports is at the heart of what makes our community great – Saturday mornings spent playing or watching sport is a national pastime and one we’re lucky in Hutt City to be an integral part of. As Mayor I’m in the fortunate position of being able to ensure local sports have the good-quality local infrastructure they need to run successful clubs. This year that’s particularly true for Netball Hutt Valley as we’ve recently approved the budget re- quired to redevelop the Taita Netball Courts. The work to redevelop the Taita Netball Courts, which will be completed before the start of the 2014 season, will ensure we can accommodate current teams and offer more playing time. For example, upgrading the floodlights will open the opportunity of night competitions. Clubs like Netball Hutt Valley offer not only a place to exercise and develop sport skills but a chance to meet others socially and develop strong bonds between friends and neighbours, which is the foundation of strong communities. It is important to me that Council makes long-term investments in key community projects and the Taita Netball Courts is a great example of that. I look forward to continuing
