👏🏼 A huge thank you to Tori and Carly for everything you contribute to netball!
And as we officially wrap up Volunteer Appreciation Round, one final THANK YOU to every single volunteer across our netball community. 💙
To our coaches, managers, committee members, umpires, mentors, scorers, timers, canteen helpers, coordinators, parents and all those people who simply put their hand up whenever something needs doing — our game does not happen without you. 🏐

Organised. Listening. Recognising.
😂 Favourite netball memory:
“I have so many!! Winning three back-to-back grand finals at a previous club has got to be up there!
But more recently, last year all my team’s shooters were away or injured, so I was put in GS… I am NOT a shooter 😂 But I got a goal!!! Did a little celebration out on court!”

💙🏐 VOLUNTEER SHOUTOUT – WEST NETBALL CLUB 🏐💙
Next up in our Volunteer Appreciation Round, we’re celebrating the mighty West Netball Club! 🙌🏼
As the biggest club in our competition, West has an incredible tribe of people behind the scenes who help keep their club strong, organised and thriving. 💙
West are fierce, competitive and passionate on the court — but behind every team is a huge network of dedicated volunteers who make it all possible.
From their committee members, coaches and team managers to umpires, scorers, timers, parents and all the helpers who jump in wherever they’re needed — thank you! 👏🏼
It takes a lot of people to keep a club of this size running, and West are incredibly lucky to have such a strong group of people willing to give their time and energy.
💙 Fierce. Competitive. United. 💙
A huge shoutout to the entire West Netball Club volunteer tribe — thank you for everything you do for your club and for our wider netball community! 🏐🙌🏼

Our next Volunteer Appreciation Round shoutout recognises two wonderful volunteers from West Netball Club – Sally Crispe and Sera Crichtonaita! 🙌

💙 SERA CRICHTONAITA
Sera has been a C Badge Umpire since 2024 and can be found with the whistle in hand across our competition, umpiring everything from Division 1 Reserves through to our junior games.
But Sera’s contribution goes well beyond umpiring. After being involved with Seasons Netball Club in 2024, she is now giving back as a West Netball Club Committee Member and an ASNA Committee Member in 2026. 🙌
When asked to describe West in three words, Sera chose:
❤️Supportive. Passionate. Resilient.
One of Sera’s proudest achievements was travelling to Queensland to umpire at Nations, where she umpired an incredible 11 games back-to-back, from juniors right through to seniors! 👏
And her funniest memory? Her very first Division 1 Reserves game! 😂
“I was dying miserably inside and kept telling myself, ‘Don’t you dare show you’re tired!’ I was laughing about it with my co-umpire… and I’ve loved Div 1 Reserves ever since.” 😂🏐
From coaching and umpiring to committee roles and leadership, Sally and Sera show just how many different ways our volunteers give back to our game.
Thank you, Sally and Sera, for the time, energy and passion you continue to give to West and our wider netball community. We appreciate you! ❤️💙🏐👏

🏐VOLUNTEER SHOUTOUT – WEST NETBALL CLUB 🏐
Our next Volunteer Appreciation Round shoutout recognises two wonderful volunteers from West Netball Club – Sally Crispe and Sera Crichtonaita! 🙌
❤️ SALLY CRISPE
Sally’s netball journey began at just 8 years old in the Adelaide Hills, and she has been part of West since 2013.
Sally is the current West Netball Club President, and during her time with the club she has done just about everything! She has coached seniors and juniors, umpired, and held every role on the committee. 🏐👏
When asked to describe West in three words, Sally chose:
❤️ Tough. Competitive. Inspiring.
One of Sally’s funniest memories comes from teaching the juniors the rules of netball, when a 6-year-old started peeling off her stick-on fingernails and handing them to Sally to hold — while casually telling her she’d had chocolate for breakfast, all as play continued around them! 😂🏐
💙
From coaching and umpiring to committee roles and leadership, Sally and Sera show just how many different ways our volunteers give back to our game.
Thank you, Sally and Sera, for the time, energy and passion you continue to give to West and our wider netball community. We appreciate you! ❤️💙🏐👏

VOLUNTEERS ARE THE HEART OF OUR GAME! 🏐❤️

💙🏐 VOLUNTEER SHOUTOUT – GIANTS NETBALL CLUB 🏐💙
Next up for our Volunteer Appreciation Round, we’re celebrating our amazing Giants Netball Club volunteers! 💙
We may be one of the smallest clubs, but we certainly make up for it with passion, inclusiveness, team spirit and a strong family feel. 💙🙌🏼
Giants are incredibly lucky to have such a strong group of people who are always willing to put their hand up and help. From our hardworking committee members, coaches, team managers, scorers, umpires, parents and all of our wonderful helpers — every single one of you plays a part in making our club what it is.
Whether it’s helping behind the scenes, coaching our players, jumping in on game day, fundraising, organising events or simply being there whenever something needs doing — thank you! 🫶🏼
It takes a village to run a netball club, and we’re so proud of the little Giants family we have built. 💙
Small club. Big heart. Strong family. 💙🏐
Thank you to ALL of our Giants volunteers! 🙌🏼💙

🏐💙 VOLUNTEER SHOUTOUT – SARAH BONNEY 💙🏐
Our next Volunteer Appreciation Round shoutout recognises two incredible women who give so much of their time, energy and passion to the Alice Springs Netball Association – Deb Gray and Sarah Bonney! 👏🏐


💙 SARAH BONNEY – ASNA COMMITTEE MEMBER & ALL-ROUND SUPER VOLUNTEER
Sarah has been an ASNA Committee Member since 2021, and she is definitely one of those people who seems to have a hand in just about everything! 😂🏐
From Mixed Netball Facilitator, photographer and social media guru, to helping with policies, match reviews and game-day duties, Sarah is always willing to jump in wherever she is needed. And this year, she’s even back out on court playing Div 4 with Wests Netball Club! 🙌

When asked to describe ASNA in three words, Sarah gave us the perfect netball answer:
💫 “ASNA – centre start!” 😂🏐

One of Sarah’s most special netball experiences has been being part of Sundowners Netball Club, where she played from 2019 and had the privilege of serving as President from 2022–2025. For Sarah, watching the club’s juniors grow, develop each week and enjoy the game alongside their friends was incredibly rewarding. It has been particularly special this year seeing some of those players continue their netball journeys and shine at other clubs both in Alice Springs and beyond. 🩵💜🤍

Another highlight was being part of the inaugural Men’s Competition in 2022 – seeing so much talent on display and the men getting out on court and showing just how good men can be at netball! 🔥🙌
Sarah, thank you for everything you continue to give to our netball community – on court, behind the camera, on the committee, on game day and everywhere in between! 💙👏

🏐💙 Deb and Sarah, thank you both for the countless hours you give to ASNA and to netball in Alice Springs. So much of what happens within our association is only possible because people like you are willing to step up, take on the big jobs and keep showing up for our players, clubs and community.
We appreciate you both! 💙🏐👏

🏐💙 VOLUNTEER SHOUTOUT – DEB GRAY 💙🏐
Our next Volunteer Appreciation Round shoutout recognises two incredible women who give so much of their time, energy and passion to the Alice Springs Netball Association – Deb Gray and Sarah Bonney (NEXT POST! 👏🏐

💙 DEB GRAY – ASNA PRESIDENT & ACADEMY COACH
Being President of an entire association is one of the biggest volunteer roles there is. Behind every season, every round and every club is an enormous amount of coordination, communication and work. Deb helps bring all of our clubs together, supporting the people who make our competition possible and helping keep netball moving forward in Alice Springs.
And if that wasn’t enough, Deb also gives her time as an Academy Coach! 🙌

Deb has been involved in netball for an incredible 48 years – almost five decades of commitment to the sport and our netball community. What an achievement! 💙

When asked to describe ASNA in three words, Deb chose:
💙 Committed. Community. Passionate.

After 48 years, there are plenty of memories – including some funny ones! 😂 One of Deb’s favourites happened at the NSW State Age Championships, when she was so busy walking and talking that she walked straight into a netball post and split her eye open! 😳😂 Then there was the time she was watching Australia play in Brisbane and dreamt the team was a player short, so they called on Deb to fill in! 😂🏐🇦🇺

Deb, 48 years of giving back to netball is something truly worth celebrating. From coaching and developing players to leading our association and supporting our clubs, your contribution can be seen right across our netball community. Thank you for everything you continue to give. 💙👏

🏐💙 Deb and Sarah, thank you both for the countless hours you give to ASNA and to netball in Alice Springs. So much of what happens within our association is only possible because people like you are willing to step up, take on the big jobs and keep showing up for our players, clubs and community.
We appreciate you both! 💙🏐👏
