1st Netball Team. 1968 - 1969 - from Phoenix 69 [undated - assumed post-October 1969]
This has been a disappointing season and perhaps one of the worst that I can remember.
The regular team members do their best, but as we are unable to field a second team, we have no regular reserves to call upon when they are needed. If all matches were to be played during the week, the number of players would not be so limited; we might then be able to field a very strong second team, as well as a first.
During the season we were very sad to lose such a dear friend as Frances Davey, who gave her support even when she was ailing. Needless to say, her place was never adequately filled.
I would like to thank all of the girls who played f or us throughout the season, especially the regular team members and wish them more luck in the future.
Lastly, of course, our thanks to Miss Cleary whose tolerance must be rapidly falling. Let us wish her luck with her forthcoming teams and hope that matches do not disappear, due to lack of support.
