Section B – Summer 2014
Westshore Netball Club was set up by a group of friends who used to
play netball together while at secondary school. A large number of club members
are between 35 and 45 years of age. They often have family and work commitments
which prevent them from playing on a regular basis. This is leaving the team
short of players for games. They used to win many tournaments and league titles
but are now less successful. They often concede late goals and also struggle to
rebound near the post.
Westshore Netball Club use a local community centre for their training
sessions and matches throughout the season. They are responsible for setting up
all of their own equipment. The club is struggling to survive financially.
Junior team training and matches have stopped through lack of volunteers to
coach and officiate.
Miss Tears, a new P.E teacher at Westshore High School, has recently
joined the club as a player. She is also a qualified netball coach and official
but has found that netball is not played at her school.
