Return to Play Support to Grant

5/10/2020

 
In these ever changing and uncertain times, one thing that is certain, is that West Yorkshire Netball are here to support all its member Clubs and Teams.

Back in August we announced our support for England Netball’s #Rise Again campaign by providing an optional 25% discount on our County Membership Fees until 31st October 2020, which added to the 30% discount already offered by England Netball until the end of September. We are now delighted to announce further financial support for all West Yorkshire member Clubs and Teams to help with their ‘Return to Play’.
​
Clubs and Teams can apply for a Support Grant of £50.00 per team, providing they meet and are able to evidence, if requested, the following criteria:   :: CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION :: 

Latest updates - England Netball

25/9/2020

 
Just in case you haven't seen the recent communications from England Netball following the government announcements on Monday. EN released a statement which is below and also a follow up communication.

To sum it up it basically confirms that the rule of six now applies to netball indoors for adults, which means there can only be groups of six indoors, (and that isn't different bubbles of six), but just literally six people on a court indoors.

So essentially that means there is no indoor competition at all for those aged 18 or over, which could last six months.

I know we are all struggling to identify indoor courts to train anyway, but unfortunately this places more pressure on leagues being able to run, as if it continues, it will mean any leagues will need to be run outdoors. We aren't at a point as you know to resume our league, but just something to be aware of for those teams that are back doing some form of training, that unfortunately this will need to be outdoors if there are more than six of you.

When one of your teammates fall, you run to them, you put your arm around them and if they’re hurt, you help them. It’s not because you don’t care about all of your other teammates, it’s because in that moment, they need you.

West Yorkshire Netball is supporting England Netball’s stand against racism. We need to now, more than ever, support Black members of the Netball Family.

England Netball have been contacted by many incredible women who have spoken up about the need for them to be part of the change, and we agree. Over the last few weeks they have asked several of those amazing women to share their experiences and to review what they currently do as an organisation and help them to plan to do more. West Yorkshire Netball now want to hear about the experiences of women within our own county, so we can also plan to do more.

EN are listening and West Yorkshire recognises that we need to do too. We want to educate ourselves and our Netball Family and shout louder. As a next vital step, West Yorkshire Netball will be running a ‘Here to Listen’ Forum for the Netball Family in our county. It will allow us to come together and further explore the experiences of Black and Ethnic Minority communities in our sport. It will be a chance to have open and honest discussions and help us stand even stronger against racism.

Let’s do more, together.

Supporting England Netball’s stand against Racism - ‘Here to Listen’ Forum
When: Tuesday, 22nd September 2020 
Time: 7.00pm via Zoom Link

Message from Corrine Hudson

To my wonderful Walking Netballers and Back To Netballers,

I hope you are all very well and staying safe. Over the 6 weeks summer holiday England Netball usually pauses a number of its regular sessions while we move to a tailored summer programme. This year in particular we are getting busier than ever preparing for the exciting time soon when we will be back on court! We are doing lots of risk assessments, internal safety training, reviewing of suitable venues and more to make sure we can offer a fabulous but safe selection of sessions, whilst also covering some of our colleagues that are furloughed.

This years summer programme will look a little different to usual, however we do have some exciting options for you. Whichever works best for you, we look forward to when we can see you back on court:
Join as an England Netball B2N / WN subscriber and access subscriber sessions - its £20 per year for *online live sessions, category D insurance, a water bottle, regular digital newsletter and relevant discounts Enjoy your break and look out for our future programme of socially distanced back to netball / walking netball sessions.

There will be a Walking Netball session on Wednesday mornings at 10am and a Back to Netball session on Thursday evenings at 6.30pm.  There will also be other fun activities that you can get involved in after the session such as quizzes, scavenger hunts or just a cuppa and a chat….all with some brilliant coaches!

A Message to all Members of our Netball Family

1/6/2020

 
​I very much hope this message finds you all safe and well. We may still be in ‘lockdown’ but while we await the decision about when the Government will lift restrictions and the news from England Netball as to when community netball can safely ‘get back on court’, you can rest assured that behind the scenes we are regularly having discussions with England Netball and the Yorkshire Region and making tentative plans.

Being able to keep in touch with all our members is extremely important to us. One of the key ways we can do this is through the ENgage membership system, which you used to register your membership this season. Unfortunately, on checking, many of you did not ‘tick’ your communication preferences when completing your membership registration. This may have been an oversight, given that your key focus was in ensuring you became a member. I am aware some of you found this a very difficult process!

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, can I now ask you to ‘login’ to your ENgage page at: https://engage.englandnetball.co.uk/Account/Login
  • Enter your Membership number & your password. Don’t forget to tick the ‘I accept box’!
  • This will then take you to your Personal Details. Check that you have an email address and,
  • if not, ‘edit’ to include it. This may be a parent if you are a junior member.
  • Open the ‘Communications’ tab This is on the dropdown list on the left of the page
As you scroll down the page, you will see all the netball organisations that you are a member of. These should be:
  • Your Club(s)
  • Yorkshire West (your County)
  • Yorkshire (your Region)
  • England Netball (your National Governing Body)

​Each organisation has a choice of a minimum 3 tick boxes. You need to tick all your preferred preferences for each one, but as an absolute minimum can I request that you ‘tick’ the top one, as this will enable us to communicate any relevant netball specific messages directly to your email. Rest assured, it is not our intention to bombard you with lots of unwanted emails!

Your support in doing this will be much appreciated and will greatly help with our communications directly to you. Thank you! Likewise, if you have any questions or need support of any kind, we are here to help, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us directly via our West Yorkshire Netball website contact page: https://www.westyorkshirenetball.co.uk/contact-wycna.html

You can also find out lots of news, advise and support by visiting the England Netball website, including it’s COVID-19 page at: https://www.englandnetball.co.uk/about/covid-19-support/
You may even like to consider joining the new EN ‘Virtual Netball Club’ and the activities on offer. You can also find other netball activities available online being offered by lots of other organisations. There is something for everyone, whether a player, coach, umpire, etc that will give you your ‘netball fix’. Unfortunately for now, just not on court1

In the meantime, if you have any interesting or inspirational news stories about what you, your club or others are doing during ‘lockdown’ then please let us know. We’d love to hear from you. Please use the West Yorkshire contact page, as detailed above.

Most importantly
STAY SAFE & WELL; STAY ACTIVE
STAY CONNECTED;
and most importantly, make sure you
STAY IN TOUCH & LOOK AFTER ALL YOUR FRIENDS IN THE NETBALL FAMILY

We will get through this and at some point be back participating in the sport we love.
