Adopt a Falcon

ADOPT A WEST COAST FALCON

The West Coast Netball Region are giving primary schools and club teams with players aged from 7 to 12 the opportunity to adopt a West Coast Falcons player or players.

The cost of “adoption” is $200.00 per Falcons player. For this your team will receive:

 A West Coast Falcons player to attend 2 x 45 minute training sessions at either the team’s school training venue or their training venue at WDNA or JNA. The Falcons will deliver two training sessions that will be suitable for the age of the team.

 Your team is to supply the training equipment (balls, cones and bibs etc)

 Your “adopted” Falcons player will attend either JNA or WDNA to watch a full game played by the team – as a supporter and mentor to the players.

 The West Coast Netball Region will arrange for the team to attend a Smarter Than Smoking State Netball League game (either at Arena or Challenge Stadium). The team will sit with the Falcons players and have their photo taken with the players. The team will also receive an autographed laminated team poster.

This is a unique opportunity to have up close interaction between West Coast Falcons Players and grass roots netball.

For further information please contact WCNR Administrator Tricia Anderson on 94099705 or [email protected]

Please note that the cost is $200.00 for one team (i.e. up to 10 players).
