The Flyers program focuses on the individual development of young players and providing them with an environment that helps build their skill base, resilience and passion for netball. The competition in Melbourne is a tool that we use to provide a challenging environment for growth and as such we do not focus on the wins/losses.
Having said that, we were are a tad… well a lot… excited that our Team 1 girls played in the Open Premier Div 2 Grand Final last night against the strong club of Westside. The girls left everything on the court, unfortunately going down 24 to 21.
Irrespective of the final result their achievement in making the grand final is a telling reflection of their commitment and determination throughout the season to improve as individuals and as a team. It is also a testament to the talented coaches and structured program they work many hours to deliver.
Selection to a VNL club is the main game but this grand final berth is something to celebrate and enjoy. Well done girls!
