About the Carlingford Comets
The only thing more exciting than a comet in the night sky is a Carlingford Comet on a netball court!
Carlingford Comets Netball Club started in 2009 with 3 teams. This year, 2011, we have 9 teams aged from 8 to 15. The phenomenal growth of the club is largely due to the "happiness factor" of our members who encourage friends to join us.
All teams practice on Tuesday afternoons at Dunrossil Avenue, Carlingford and play on Saturday mornings at either Brush Farm (10 and under) or Meadowbank Park (11 and over).
Carlingford Comets Netball Club is a member of the of Eastwood Ryde Netball Association (ERNA). Three of our coaches are involved at representative level and every year sees more of our girls taking up umpiring with many working toward national accreditations. We encourage our players to stand for representative selection and in 2011, we are very proud to have 11 of our girls wear an ERNA uniform.
Our uniform hire policy is designed to help alleviate some of the costs incurred by ever growing young girls so that parents don’t have to buy new uniforms every year.
Important information and weekly team reports are emailed to all members from our fantastic website. This ensures that everyone is kept up to date on club news, important events and all things relevant to Carlingford Comets.
We are a friendly and caring group of people who work together creating a positive environment to encourage, support and teach our members to strive toward their maximum potential in all aspects of their lives. Netball is a great way to learn important life skills like communication, problem solving, focus, working within a team and leadership, to name a few.
