At a recent WDNA Delegates Meeting it was decided there would be two days where spectators are able to take photos/videos throughout the day without adhering to the WDNA Photographic policy. WDNA Photography Policy Photos can be taken on other days adhering to this policy.

Congratulations to our own Sophie Barton, who was awarded her Umpiring “Gold Association Award” yesterday after completing her practical test.
Sophie has been working hard on her umpiring over the off season by attending the WDNA Umpiring Development Program and receiving extra mentoring at carnivals.
Great to see hard work being rewarded by being awarded the highest Association Award. Well done Soph!
Remember to thank all our umpires after the games – “It takes a lot of time and hard work to become a confident umpire and just a few inappropriate comments from the sideline to crush that enthusiasm”

After week 3 WDNA do a review of the teams to try to make the divisions as even as possible. This can result in some teams being moved or some divisions having a bye. The new draw is now on the WDNA website. There is a link on the right hand side of our website if you would like to check your team.
Check out our new Umpiring Assignment system. To see if you or your team is umpiring, hover over the top tab “Umpiring” and click on “Umpiring Assignment”. The dates for the games are down the bottom of the page.
Good luck tomorrow – GO RANGERS!

To recognise the important role umpires have in the game of netball, Wests are hosting an “Umpire Appreciation Day” this Saturday. The aim of this day is to raise the umpire profile at Wests and give our valued umpires some acknowledgement for their dedication, commitment and the courage they show in picking up a whistle and having a go to learn what is often a difficult and daunting task.
We aks all players, coaches and spectators to especially acknowledge umpires on Saturday. You do this by simply thanking your umpire after the game, or by showing appreciation in some other way.
Remember NO UMPIRE – NO GAME!

We have three more superstars who have received The Outdoor Club Graceville Core Value Awards;
- Georgia from Team 21 for demonstrating all of the Rangers Core Value traits, and applying advice from her coach onto the court.
- Adelaide from Team 14 for embodying the Rangers Core Values. She is such a hard worker, who always implements training & feedback into her game. Her attitude & growth mindset equips her with the skillset for whatever she sets her mind to achieve.
- Indianna from Team 33 for never giving up. Indi joined Team 33 for this COVID style season when her original team was dissolved. She joined a team that all played together last season as she loves her netball so much that she couldn’t give it up. We love your attitude Indi!
The Club is lucky to have the 3 of you, congrats ladies!
Thanks to The Outdoor Club Graceville for sponsoring our weekly awards 💚💛
Great netball club 💙

Please let your coach/team managers know if you’re unavailable to play.
It was difficult for Rangers 9 to choose just one winner for this week’s The Outdoor Club Graceville Core Value Award. The whole team is demonstrating such fabulous teamwork (even sending get well messages to their absent ill team member) and they all played amazing on Saturday.
It’s big congratulations though to Erryn who was awarded the certificate and voucher for great game play and demonstrating team spirit 💚💛
Congratulations to all the girls who trained and trialled for a position in one of the WDNA REPRESENTATIVE teams. The following "RANGERS GIRLS" have been successful in joining a 2020 Team! 💚💛 👏 #oneteamteamrangers
