Hyde Netball Club trials for the 2010/11 season are taking place on 10th, 17th and 24th June.

• All members are required to be at the club from 7pm – 10pm.
• Check the notices for when you are playing.
• Each member is responsible for warming up – lease remember to keep warm in between sessions!
• If you cannot make any of the trial dates let Sam know ASAP.

Good luck to all current and new members who will be trialing!

Reminder – Pontins

If you are going to Pontins in September Mandy needs the remaining monies this week!

We were contacted by the BBC recently to ask if we have any members who might want to take part in a new BBC3 programme.

Information about the documentary:

BBC 3 documentary about 16 – 25 year olds who are currently unemployed. A recent survey showed that one in five 16 – 25 year olds are not working right now and a third of men and a fifth of women aged between 20 and 34 currently live at home with their mums and dads – the highest level in 20 years.

We are looking for young people who would be willing to filmed during the process of looking for work. We hope to start filming soon, although there will be different starting dates for each person filmed. The length of time the person would be required is very much dependent on the candidates and what they are up to.

From the sounds of things the producers are after young people who fit a range of types  and perhaps they feel that someone from our club might fit the ’sporty’ category

So, whether you are a netball club member or not, if you are reading this and interested in taking part you should get in touch with the BBC using either of the methods below:

Telephone: 0208 008 5955 or 07539 860 860
Email: bbc3doc@bbc.co.uk

(Please do not contact the netball club)

If you play netball regularly you will be no stranger to sore feet. But there are ways that you can help prevent the common problems we encounter. There is a great resource on the England Netball website that gives tips on how to look after your feet before, after and in between playing netball.

Have you ever thought of covering the soles of your feet with vaseline? Take a look at Ten Tips for Fitter Feet to see if you are taking the proper precautions with your footies and tooties.

Hyde Netball Club is now in training and the dates have been set for trials which will take place on June 10th, 17th and 24th.

• It was mentioned that there are an increasing number of instances where players are not respecting the umpires decision in matches. This is across all clubs, not just Hyde. HNC would like to stress to members that disrespecting the umpire is not acceptable. Please set a good example in all future matches.
