GRADING REQUESTS TO PLAY WITH FRIENDS

NETSETGO:

As NetSetGo 8s and 9s is not competitive we can easily group players together. We are an inclusive club and do not like to turn players away so we reserve the right to add players to a group in order to even out team numbers. All players must make the request when registering and parents cannot make requests on behalf of others.

JUNIORS:

Please note that netball is a graded, competitive sport from the age of 10 with multiple divisions in age groups and representative pathways. We grade players based on ability in order to maximise opportunities for players to develop and improve their skills as well as their enjoyment and love of the game. It works much better for everyone.

We have an equal court time policy at our club so friendship teams with a wide range of abilities are a real challenge to coach and difficult to provide a positive, confidence building experience to all players. Stronger players always enjoy the challenge of harder, faster competition and do not develop to their potential if graded lower to be kept with a friend. Less confident players do not always enjoy playing above their skill or experience level.

10 to 12 Years - change to Grading Policy from 2024

From 2024, for all 10 years to 12 years teams, we are moving back to our earlier Grading Policy of selecting teams based on playing ability and team balance. We have encountered too many issues trying to accommodate “friend group requests” in the 10s and 11s and later on forming teams in 12s when those friend or school group teams didn’t work. Practical grading (ie attendance at trial games where players are observed and assessed as individuals by RRNC Grading Committee selectors) is now compulsory for these ages. This is the fairest way to compare players so the RRNC Grading Committee can form balanced teams based on rankings with players of a similar standard so they can enjoy their netball, and develop to their potential. We encourage our players to accept their team and welcome making new friendships. The support of parents is greatly encouraged for this to occur smoothly.

If you have players within these age groups that do not want to be graded (eg you want to form your own team) we suggest that you inquire at smaller clubs that may be able to accommodate your request. Or it is easy to form your own club with Randwick Netball Association - we can advise you how if interested, for more information please contact Mary O'Connell E]

13 to 15 Years

We will consider “friend requests” from 13 years up for Division 3 and lower teams.You will be advised if required to attend grading. Division 1 & 2 team players must attend compulsory grading. Any player from Division 3 or lower looking to change teams can also attend grading.

INTERMEDIATES AND SENIORS

With Intermediates and Seniors make sure you list the friends you want to play with when you register. You will be advised if required to attend grading. Division 1 & 2 or A Grade team players must attend compulsory grading. Any player from lower divisions looking to change teams can also attend grading.
