Bellingara Netball Courts
10yrs practical Grading
At 10 years old, players start playing full netball rules, so Sutherland Shire Netball Association (SSNA) hold a fun grading day!
Once every club forms their teams we submit it to SSNA in preparation for their 10yrs Practical Grading day. It's held at Bellingara. This is a relaxed, gala-style format.
Players just need to be in full Menai Hawks uniform. You will be told who your coaches is and your team manager will have kit bags ready.
It’s a great way for everyone to meet their team and get excited for the season!
Sutherland Shire Netball Association (SSNA) grade each team as whole.
