Congratulations to Amy Fuller on her 200th game for Hamersley Netball Club. Amy has been playing netball with our wonderful club for the last 15 years from a junior all the way through to being one of our most respected senior players. Amy is a true team player; positive, encouraging and supportive. When she steps on the court her energy and tenacity are unstoppable. Her grit and determination to have an impact on the game is on display for all to see. Amy you are a huge asset to Hamersley Netball Club. You are the epitome of the Club’s motto "be the best you can be" and all that have played with you over the years know that you’re always there encouraging others to be the best they can be. 200 games is something to be very proud of and celebrated. Congratulations on this milestone Amy.

Sarah received this award along with Miriam Ifold for the stella work they did setting up WDNA's inaugural Indigenous Round in recognition of National NAIDOC Week. Have a look at our 2021 Hamlet Issue 1 and read about the amazing activities Sarah and Miriam organised including a Welcome to Country with a Smoking Ceremony, painting activities and Indigenous match balls.

Congratulations to Michelle Cox for achieving her 250 Game milestone for Hamersley Netball Club. Hard work, commitment, loyalty, passion, determination – these are just some of the words that spring to mind when explaining what Mich brings to our club... and that is just as a player! Mich’s involvement with Hamersley spans an amazing 25 years and even though 7 of these were spent in the UK, Michelle remained in touch with the Club and kept her promise to return - although it was a little longer than expected! Along with her commitment as a player, Mich has coached for 11 seasons and has not only guided most teams to finals, but 8 of them have achieved a grand final appearance. Anyone that has been lucky enough to play alongside or be coached by Mich have witnessed what dedication is all about. Mich has played an important part in developing many of our up and coming players and continues to be a wonderful role model both on and off the court. Thank you for all that you have done over the years. You are a true inspiration and we look forward to your continued involvement for many years to come.

Sadly our Club Treasurer Heidi Leaver will not be available next year and we are now looking for a member to help with this role. Do you have:

• Bookkeeping or accounting experience
• A willingness to learn and help others

Heidi will be available to train and mentor for the rest of this season to ensure a seamless handover of the role. If you are interested or would like further information, please contact Heidi.

Congratulations to Sarah Campbell for achieving her 200 Game milestone for Hamersley Netball Club. Sarah has been an active member of our Club for 19 years. She gives 100% to every game and takes the hard knocks in her stride. Sarah’s trademark game is always played with a big smile on her face whether that be while taking a flying intercept or ending up on the ground every game. She is a dedicated team member who brings out the best in others. Sarah, you bring something special to the Club with your passion and loyalty. You are a true representation of what our Club is all about. Congratulations on your 200 Game milestone.

Congratulations to the following teams that have gone straight through to the Grand Finals: 1, 3, 4, 8, 11, 13, 15, 21 & 23.

As we approach finals let's take a moment to reflect on Hamersley's Values. These values together with our Code of Conduct apply to all members whether they be players, parents, umpires, coaches, managers or committee. Belonging
Finals is a great opportunity to come together as a club and show our support by cheering from the sidelines. Court time is determined by our coaches and it's important to support all decisions. If you don't get the court time you were hoping for, remember that bench players are valuable members of the team, providing critical game analysis and lifting teammates with their 'x' factor cheers. Professionalism
Be prepared, arrive on time and in full Hamersley uniform, including socks! Players, parents, coaches and managers all have the opportunity to conduct themselves in a professional manner by listening, adjusting and respecting the umpires decisions, it is a thankless job and without them we would not have a game. Respect
As games get tighter and more passionate remember to show respect to the opposition and applaud sportsmanship at all times. Good luck everyone, let's all work together for a successful finals series.

Good luck to all members competing in semi finals on Saturday 4 September, an amazing 16 teams have qualified to play. Hamersley is very proud of all our teams and their efforts this season. We hope everyone was able to learn new skills, make new friends and wear the blue and red with pride. If you are not taking part in the finals we would love to see you all at the courts cheering our teams on and showing your support: 08:30am

Do you have a news story you want to share for our next Hamlet? It can be anything on or off the court such as fun at training, a sporting achievement outside of netball, a new baby announcement, an engagement or a wedding? Whatever it is we'd love to know! Please email any info to Annie McKendry, our Hamlet Coordinator.

Truly a day to celebrate! On Saturday 14 August our beloved Club Captain Janine Friday (aka Neen) stepped on court for her 400th Hamersley game and we celebrated this massive milestone in true Hammers style. In her 27 years with our club Neen has played with 113 teammates, coached 19 teams and belonged to 18 club committees. We know everyone who has had the opportunity to work alongside this amazing and inspiring club legend would have felt incredibly honoured and privileged to do so. Neen thank you for your role modelling, your selflessness to the game, the development of our young kids passing through your safe hands, your sportsmanship, your friendship, your values and your leadership. You really are a Triple Impact Competitor - you make yourself better - you make the team better - you make the game better. We are so proud to have you wearing the blue and red.

Helen's funeral service will be held 3pm on Friday 13 August at Pinnaroo Valley Memorial Park in the West Chapel. Club members wishing to attend the funeral are asked to wear Hamersley colours as a mark of respect, belonging and love from the club. On behalf of the Hamersley Netball Club Committee and members, we extend our sincere condolences to the Knight and Pope families and remember Helen as a Legend and all round fantastic member of our club. She will be forever remembered in the red, white and blue and sorely missed by us all. Please read our tribute to Helen, may you rest in peace.
