March Newsletter March Newsletter March 2015 Message from Julie Paterson, CEO Inside This Issue 1 Message from CEO Hi everyone - another month has flown by and we are already a quarter of the way through 2015! The last two weeks have been particularly busy in our 2 Community Netball office with two home games within seven days. Our first game was well 3 Coach Development attended, and while the second game was never going to be a large crowd - clashing with the last day of the World Cup Cricket final – I was pleasantly 4 Umpire Development surprised at how many did turn up. They all brought their voices and were a very vocal and supportive crowd. It was great to see another win on home 5 Performance ground and we managed to keep the Steel to well under 60 goals, which was 6 Mystics Update a first for them for some time. 7 Upcoming Events The turn-out for the Zone AGM was disappointing, and as we were given late notice of non-attendance, we were unable to field a quorum of the nine centres required, meaning the AGM will have to be scheduled again. We have decided to hold it prior to a home game on 3 May 2015 and official notification of this will be provided this week. We will provide two tickets to the game to delegates who attend the AGM. It was also proposed we amend the constitution to allow attendance by phone or skype to ensure we don’t encounter this unfortunate situation again. Thanks to all of those who did travel long distances and also to those due to poor weather conditions had to sit in traffic for hours - and we are all sorry we couldn’t complete the meeting. I hope you are all geared up for your netball seasons starting soon and I look forward to seeing you at the re-scheduled AGM - if not sooner. AND don’t forget to get along to a SKYCITY Mystics home game - there are only four remaining!! Julie Paterson CEO MARCH NEWSLETTER PAGE 2 Community Netball My first month as Community Netball Manager had been very exciting. In the first week I attended the NNZ council meeting where I was privileged to meet so many of you. Since Tia Winikerei and then I have visited a number of Centres. I have enjoyed meeting and listening to the stories Tania Heap joined us of challenge, enjoyment and growth that makes our game so special. I am still to make my this month at Netball way up to the Far North and one or two centres that are closer to my West Auckland base. Northern Zone In the next few weeks I will be looking for opportunities to come to you and your Centre. In the meantime please contact me with any queries or discussion you have to do with your community and Netball. Tia Winikerei Halberg Awards One of New Zealand’s longest serving umpires and administrators has been awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Halberg Awards in Auckland. Dawn Jones (OBE) has fostered a lifelong interest in Netball and has been involved at both national and international level for more than five decades. Dawn Jones was nominated for the Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of her service to Netball as one of the country’s top administrators and her involvement as a Netball umpire, one of the most Junior Netball Information decorated New Zealand has ever produced. courtside at Taster Days ANZ futureFERNS Pre-season Taster Days and Junior Workshops are underway. With most centres introducing the Year 3 & 4 programme for the first time, time certainly is precious with the additional workshops required for our netball communities. Papakura Netball Centre, Whangarei Netball Centre and the new satellite of Howick Pakuranga Netball Centre in the Maraetai/Beachlands area, “Coast Junior Netball”, have already enjoyed their workshops and Taster Days for the up and coming season. In embracing the ANZ futureFERNS program we share the following quote from page 4 “Changing the Game – The Parent’s Guide to Raising Happy, High-Performing Athletes and Giving Youth Sports Back to Our Kids” by John O’Sullivan Kim Beere Junior Development Officer Pohutukawa Netball Club and Michele Cadman ‘The innocence and joy of American youth sports has been corrupted. Rarely do kids just get President Pohutukawa Netball Club to “play” sports anymore. Instead, they get to “work” sports, a movement caused by the misguided notion that our kids need to specialize early and win at all costs to get that college scholarship and justify the investment made in youth athletics. The romance is gone, the fun is gone, and sports are no longer play. As a result, 70 percent of young athletes are dropping out of organized sports before they reach high school. Some children quit because of financial hardship, others because they acquire other interests, but many children quit because sports is no longer fun.’ Northland Centers are busy planning their competition structures for both Senior and Junior Competitions and it looks to be a cracking year for the North!! Junior workshops at Whangarei Netball Centre Whangarei Netball Centre have hosted a number of coaching modules over the past two months – these included modules for both junior netball and community coach award. We are encouraged by this and look forward to seeing these coaches progress through the coach development pathway. MARCH NEWSLETTER PAGE 3 Northern Wairoa Netball Centre are looking to introduce the ANZ futureFERNS Yr3-4 Program this year on Tuesday afternoons!! They also participated in the Sport Northland Sports Expo Have a Go Day with 130 children registering at their tent!! Netball Rodney Centre Junior Coordinator Lynette Gubb and new Coordinator Kasey attended the Junior Netball Workshops held in Whangarei recently. Lynette Gubb received her Lotto Sportsmaker Volunter Award from Sport Northland Community Sport Team leader Roxanne Kelly. Lynette has been part of Netball Rodney for over 25 years. Congratulations Lynette!!! Counties What a busy Month it has been in the Counties Manukau area with Noeline Taurua-Barnett holding a Coaching Session at Papakura Netball Centre, and Y3-4 Students at the Taster Day for Sir Edmond various NNZ Coaching Modules presented locally. Hillary Junior School We have seen a significant increase in popularity with the ANZ futureFERNS program through school netball delivery and the Active in Schools Program. Recently at Redoubt North School we had a family “Have a go Day”. This generated a lot of interest and it was great to see parents participating in the skills sessions and having as much fun as the children. We had our first Taster Day of the year at Sir Edmond Hillary College- Junior School Y3-4 where the children who had participated in the 4 week skill sessions were given the opportunity to be involved in the 5v5 Modified game. This provided a wonderful opportunity for them to display the skills learnt being executed on court. Congratulations to Therese Dixon on receiving The Netball NZ Service Award at the recent NNZ Council/ AGM for your relentless support and countless hours dedicated to Umpiring throughout the years. Coach Development Y3-4 Students at the Taster Day for Sir Edmond I am very excited about my new role as the Netball Northern Coach Hillary Junior School Development Officer. My first goal is to get out and about to your Centre, to introduce myself personally, have a chat about your coaching program and how I can support your Centre and coaches in this role. In the meantime if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting you.

  • Heart Work-Out Deep New Zealand Watching the Clouds Child Scientists a Word from the Dean
    May|June 2008 | Faculty of Science Alumni Magazine Issue 02 Heart Work-out Deep New Zealand Watching the clouds Child scientists A word from the Dean Election time looms: is there a technology-led future for our nation? As the election approaches, we have the opportunity to ask ourselves whether any of the major political parties do genuinely believe in a technology-led future for New Zealand. New Zealand is a small country and in many ways we do very well, punching above our weight internationally in certain areas (the dairy industry being the most obvious). But why do we have only one Fisher and Paykel Healthcare, one Raykon Industries and one Buckley Systems, when as a nation we have the expertise and potential to have so many more of these dynamic entities? Without growth and investment in the technology sector, we will continue to fall behind other nations. Currently, only the Government has the scale to prime the pump and invest heavily in a technology-led future for our nation. The Centres of Research Excellence and Partnership for Excellence programmes, both good ideas from the present Government, have focused research on potentially nation-altering science and technology. However, to kick-start early stage basic research, the HRC and Marsden funds need significantly more investment. The recently announced $700M Government Investment Fund is a good start, but this will yield only an additional ~$100 million per year, probably targeted at the land-based industries, of which dairy is by far the largest likely recipient. So where could the required increase in technology investment come from? At the moment, the Trustees invest most of our Superannuation Fund offshore, minimising risk but leaving New Zealand starved of investment.

  • Netball Northern Zone Map CONTENTS
    Netball Northern Zone Map CONTENTS From the Chair and CEO 4 Commercial Partners 6 Community Netball 7 Performance 13 SKYCITY Mystics 16 Results Northern Zone 20 Financials 21 From the CEO & Chair It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2015 Annual Report of the Netball Northern Zone. It has been another satisfying year with progress being shown in all aspects of the work we are involved in, from ANZ FutureFerns through to high performance (SKYCITY Mystics) . Netball New Zealand and the five Zones continued to refine our organization’s role and purpose through- out the year. We all have a very high commitment to alignment with the national Whole of Netball plan and linking closely with Netball NZ’s strategies. Targets were set by Netball New Zealand in consultation with each of the zones and focused largely on increasing player participation as well as coach and umpire numbers. We were successful in some areas, but also recognized that targets in some other areas were not realistic, so were able to review these number for the 2016 season. The CEO’s of the Zone and Netball New Zealand continue to have regular meetings as do the Community and Performance team nationally. National Chair meetings are also held twice per annum, usually alongside the CEO meeting. It was a good outcome for the Coach Development role to transition from Netball New Zealand into the Zones earlier this year. We now have very clear lines of accountability for outcomes in this area and we were fortunate to be able to secure Tania Heap with such a wealth of experience in coach development.
