GRADING AND TEAM SELECTION

The Rossmoyne Netball Club has a 3 part process for team selection:

Part 1 – 2021 Player Observations
During the third round of matches and finals in 2021 members of the Grading and Team Selection committee observed all teams to gather additional player information for team selection.

Part 2 – 2021 Coach Reports
Consideration will be given to the previous season’s Coaches Report which will include comment on ball skills, footwork, court sense, athleticism, determination and attitude.

Part 3 – 2022 Grading Sessions
Players are required to attend 2-3 sessions of match play against participants of the same age group in February/March 2022. The full grading schedule is available here.

Attendance at the grading sessions is compulsory for all players and non-attendance will impact on team selection. Players will only be able to trial at grading if they have paid full registration fees for the 2022 season. The Grading and Team Selection committee retains the right to hold an additional grading session if required.

The Grading and Team Selection Committee will make the final decision on team selection from information gathered from the player observations, coaches’ reports and the grading sessions. Where a player is unable to attend any grading session, that player will be placed in a team at the discretion of the Committee.

Grading sessions are tailored to each age group and may incorporate players across two years of birth:

• Senior grades (born 2002 or earlier) – players are required to attend 3 grading sessions
• 19 & Under (born 2003 and 2004) – players are required to attend 3 grading sessions
• 17 & Under (born 2005 and 2006) – players are required to attend 3 grading sessions
• Junior A, B, C, D and E grades (born 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011) – players are required to attend 2-3 grading sessions with other players in their year of birth
• GO F and GO G grades (born 2012 and 2013) – players are required to attend a skills based assessment session rather than formal grading
• SET grades (born 2014 and 2015) – players may be required to attend a skills based assessment session rather than formal grading depending on registered numbers

*** Rossmoyne Netball Club is a grading-training-playing Club. The club selects teams based on playing ability and does not select teams based on friendship, social or transport requests. Players are expected to train and play on a regular basis. ***

TEAM ANNOUNCEMENTS

Team announcements will be made on our website in mid-March 2022. Please see the Team Announcements page of our website.

It is important to remember that no team selection process guarantees 100% satisfaction for all parties involved. However the Rossmoyne Netball Club will endeavour to do its best to place players in the most appropriate team to facilitate participation, enjoyment and skill development.

FUNDRAISING

As is standard, the club is planning one major fundraiser and a cake stall in 2022.

Annual major fundraiser to be held at a date to be advised in June 2022.

Cake stalls at FNA are now allocated on a rotational basis so there is no guarantee our club will be able to hold a stall in 2022. Further details will be available shortly.

A full list of club events scheduled for 2022 will be available shortly.
