PMNC 2018 President’s Report
2018 started on the back foot with the burglary of our clubhouse,
seeing our Defibrillator, much of our uniforms and a large amount
of other equipment stolen.
But the community rallied and we were able to secure our
insurance claim, an emergency grant and donations including
2.5K from Dad’s footy to cover our losses.
The event also made us known to our new sponsor, Silk Logistics
who came onboard with a 2.5K deal to be our latest uniform
sponsor.
After this distraction we were able to move on, liaising with
council to be a part of the South Melbourne Primary School
indoor sports hall trial, while we still negotiated with council
about obtaining lights.
Another mishap saw the SMPS gym put out of commission with
major water damage due to a burst pipe. We hope to rejoin the
trial in term 2 and 3 this year as well as continuing to investigate
other venues, while we continue to push for lighting at Julier
Reserve.
We had a midyear Christmas in July function which was
enthusiastically attended by many of our senior club members.
We used this as an opportunity to provide our senior members
with opportunities to socialise and celebrate their involvement in
our club.
We also continued to grow our wellness programs by offering
fitness training to our top under 15 side and a Yoga course to our
other members which has been keenly attended.
Our teams saw much success. We had runners up and winners in
under 15s, under 13s, social ladies and mixed and our under 11s
secured 4 players in the Parkville 11 and Under Rep team.
Considering our size and our young age this is no mean feat and it
proves what a strong foundation we have established at this club.
We saw many junior coaches and umpires join our club in 2018
and start their own coaching and umpiring careers. These juniors

are crucial to our current and ongoing success and I am very
proud of everything they have achieved. We continue to look for
ways to further support them on their journey by providing
structured programming, mentoring and access to theoretical
courses.
At our end of year function, we congratulated all our teams,
particularly our juniors, for a great year of netball. We announced
Bridget Slattery and Zara Burdett as our Spirit of Netball and
Senior Club Champion respectively and we saw Trish Oliver
inducted as our first life member. A well-deserved
acknowledgement for Trish and her countless hours of
volunteering.
We continue to look for ways to improve our club and our 2019 –
2021 strategic plan will build on the strong governance,
community and member focus we have instilled to date. We will
further focus on defining our club culture and developing high
performance netball in an effort to continue the success we have
seen to date and in order to be able to retain our talented players
through to older age groups and their continued pathways.
Finally I would like to thank the committee for their many hours
of service over the past 12 months. Thanks to Trish, Dan, Claire,
Midge, Vicki, Kate, Lisa and Bec. And a very special thank you
to our outgoing committee members Daniel Kogler, Lisa Burdett
and Claire Scott who have over the past years provided many
hours of volunteer service to the club, as well as much support to
Trish and to myself. We would not be the club we are without
you all.
Thanks
