Tigers awarded Coach the Coach grant

Tigers Netball Club was recently successful in obtaining a Coach the Coach grant of $2,000 from the Bayside City Council. The first of these workshops will be held on Sunday April 18 at the Thomas Street Courts and will be run by Inspire Netball Group.

This is a significant achievement for our club, with the workshops designed to provide our volunteer coaches with the best possible coaching development opportunities so that they can continue their coaching for many years to come. The coaching workshops that will be run over the next few months will be:

• Space Awareness

• Footwork and Ball Handling Skills

• Goal Shooting and Goal Circle Movement

• Centre Pass Attack/Defence

• Defensive Skills

These workshops have been selected to cater for all age groups and abilities, and will require some players to take part so that the coaches can put their skills into action. We will send emails out to the appropriate teams looking for players as these workshops take place. The first workshop is designed to assist with our U11 players.

We would like to thank Bayside City Council for making this wonderful opportunity available to the Tigers Netball Club.

New Sportsmart Sponsorship for Tigers

We’re very excited to announce a new club sponsor – Sportsmart Moorabbin.

Sportsmart has a history of supporting community organisations, and we’re delighted to welcome them to our Tigers team. Their sponsorship will provide tremendous value to the club and our members:

• Sportsmart will be gifting $10 vouchers to distribute to our PLAYER OF THE MATCH each week for every team.

• Our club is now signed up to Sportsmart’s Team Smart program, which offers great benefits to us and our members. By quoting the Tigers Team Smart number – 800660 – every purchase you make comes with two great benefits:
  1. For you – an instant discount off the normal selling price
  2. For our club – your purchase will boost our club rebate (Tigers Netball Club gets 6% back in rebates so we can put this into the purchase of equipment and can reduce our running costs)

• In addition to your discount and our club rebate, Team Smart also gives Tigers members access to exclusive promotions, VIP nights and special offers.
  

We encourage you to support Sportsmart Moorabbin and thank them for their wonderful sponsorship. For more information on the Team Smart program please go to: teamsmart.sportsmart.com.au

Message from our President

To all our wonderful players, coaches and members I hope you and your family are well.

As most of you would have seen, Netball Victoria has now made a call to defer all community netball until May 31, with a provision to reassess at the end of April.

We encourage you all to remain active as this will be so important for all of our mental health through this time. We all know how our fitness can deteriorate very quickly - just think of the summer months when we’re not training.

You can maintain your fitness by simply doing a run around the block (while maintaining social distancing) and short sprints in your front/back yard or hallway. 

For goalers, make sure you practice your shooting as much as possible.

And for an awesome netball program from home, you can also follow - https://www.facebook.com/netfitnetball/

Please take care during this time, stay healthy and keep on practising. 

I look forward to seeing you all again on the netball court!
