 WORKING BEE THANKYOU!
Thankyou to the 35 people that attended our working bee in February.
The attendance was pleasing to say the least. We managed to get our beautiful
Memorial Rose Garden complete and a lot of hedge pruning and tidying up done.
A special thankyou to Reg and Brad for their buying and organising of the timber
work. To Sue who selected and purchased an exquisite range of roses and other plants.
To Trevor for his expertise with the chain saw and to all of us labourers that piled
up the mountains of clippings and cuttings. All the champs are listed below. I think
you’ll agree it looks sensational.

STATE ASSOCIATION CHAMPIONSHIP COMES TO
DIAMOND CREEK.
Just a reminder that this will be held at Diamond Creek Force Netball Complex on Sunday 23rd May for
anyone interested in watching good netball games. Also it would great if you feel like cheering on our home
Tournament Rep this is your chance.

FORCE NEWS
For all game results and ladders see the notice board in the window of the clubrooms or The
Diamond Valley Leader.
State League hasn’t started yet but up until now the teams have been playing in the Pre
Season Cup. State League and Open teams play on Wednesday nights and start Wednesday
21st April.
17/U play on Tuesday nights and have started the season strongly.
15/U play on Thursday nights and have had some very close games.

Players! Players! Players! What is going on out there?
Last Saturday we had two players fall over in two separate incidents on the same court and both of
them broke their arms. May I take this opportunity to remind players that if we all lead for the same
pass on court we crowd each other and as a result we trip over each other and end up having
accidents on court. It is much better to find and lead  into open space on the court. Give it a try
today and spread play over the court. We most definitely don’t want a repeat of last Saturday.

Tournament Results
Last Sunday our tournament teams participated in our first tournament for the year at Vic Churches
Association at Heathmont. It was a good day with some excellent results.
