1NETBALL WA 2010 ANNUAL REPORT

West Coast Fever had a challenging

season, with some extremely exciting

and intense matches against some of

the heavyweights of the competition.

Wins against the Tactix, Steel and

Thunderbirds along with narrow losses

against the Magic, Mystics, Swifts

and eventual champions the Firebirds

showed the potential of the team.

Following the ANZ Championship

season, Netball WA’s recruitment

of national coach, Norma Plummer,

was a massive coup for netball in our

state. A legend of the sport, Plummer

personifi es not only everything that

is netball, but has an extraordinary

record of success at all levels.

We look forward to her having an

effect on every level of the sport in

Western Australia.

At a grassroots level, the

Development department continues

to work tirelessly to develop players,

coaches and umpires across the

state. We experienced fantastic

growth in our programs, none more

so than in our Scoolnet NetSetGO!

and Step up clinics with participation

growing to 7,096 from 1,975 in 2010.

The State Netball Centre development

has been a long process, but through

the hard work of Scott Henderson

and his team, we are confi dent that by

the beginning of 2014, WA will have

a world class facility where we can

work to develop our players, coaches

and umpires.

We thank the State Government for

their support and look forward to

moving into the new home for netball

in our state.

From a fi nancial point of view, Netball

WA recorded a modest surplus of

$44,395. Netball continues to enjoy

a solid fi nancial position thanks in

no small part to our major funding

partners, Healthway and Lotterywest

through the Department of Sport and

Recreation’s sport fund. We are proud

of the way Netball has embraced the

healthy living message across every

level of our sport.

We also would like to thank our

commercial sponsors. In 2011, Telstra

become a national sponsor of netball

and we welcomed the Sunday Times

and PerthNow as a sponsor of the

West Coast Fever. Their support

means that the Fever was, for the fi rst

time, able to produce a surplus that we

could reinvest in our sport at a grass

roots level. Skywest provided a great

deal of support for our development

programs and we looking forward to

continuing this relationship.

In 2011 Netball WA saw some familiar

faces leave, but also some exciting

new faces arrive. I would like to

welcome High Performance Manager

and West Coast Fever Assistant Coach

- Stacey Rosman, Marketing Executive

- Emily Wise, High Performance

Analyst - Megan Lorains and Inclusion

Offi cer, Jamie-Leigh Strickland.

At a national level, we saw some

encouraging signs with both the 19U

State side and our newly christened

ANL team, the Western Sting both

fi nishing on the podium in 3rd place.

The Sting had a particularly successful

campaign, fi nishing the round

matches in 2nd place. Both the 21U

and 17U teams fi nished in 5th position

in very tight competitions.

The Smarter than Smoking State

Netball League was won by Coastal

Sharks, leaving Midland Brick Demons

without that elusive 5th championship

title in a row. Congratulations to Sally

Ironmonger and her team once again

for winning what was one of the most

hotly contested leagues in the history

of the competition.

The Netball WA Board continues to

work hard behind the scenes for the

good of the sport in WA. I would like

to thank them again for their time and

their expertise in guiding our sport.

Finally, and on behalf of the Netball

WA Board, I would like to take this

opportunity to thank the dedicated

volunteers who work tirelessly for this

great sport. It is often easy to overlook

those that give so much of their time

and energy, to ensure that netball

reaches the impressive heights that it

deserves. So to all those that do play,

coach, offi ciate, volunteer or support -

thank you. Without you, netball would

be nothing of what it is today.

President’s and CEO’s Report 2011

2011 was a fantastic year for netball. The World Championships in Singapore

highlighted the global aspect of the sport, and showcased the incredible talent that

Australia is producing. Our West Australian Diamonds, Susan Fuhrmann and Caitlin

Bassett continue to amaze and inspire, and we could not be more proud of them for

the gold medals that they bought back to the state.

Netball WA Staff

4 NETBALL WA 2011 ANNUAL REPORT

The 2011 season was the fourth

ANZ Championship the West Coast

Fever has participated in since the

competition’s launch in 2008. Fever

Coach Jane Searle was in her third

year at the helm, however there was

little change in the ANZ Championship

history, fi nishing in ninth place.

The performances of Caitlin Bassett,

Andrea Gilmore and Susan Fuhrmann

were highlights from the season.

Caitlin fi nished the year as the number

one shooter in the competition in

goals/attempts with 362 goals from

409 attempts at 88.5%. Caitlin was

awarded the Holden Grassroots

Best Player of the match 3 times

throughout the season. Wing defence,

Andrea Gilmore had a stellar year,

fi nishing in the top 10 for intercepts

and defl ections in the competition.

Goal keeper Susan Fuhrmann was in

the top 10 for rebounds in 2011.

Australian Diamond honours were

bestowed upon Caitlin Bassett

and Susan Fuhrmann, with both

completing the Gold medal

winning match at the World Netball

Championships held in Singapore.

Promising young Fever athlete,

Courtney Bruce, also donned the

green and gold after being selected in

the Australian 19U team.

The 2011 ANZ Championship started

earlier this year because of the World

Netball Championship in July. Despite

this challenge, TV audiences and

attendances at stadiums remained

consistent with previous years. In

general, the team has approximately

100,000 viewers per match and

around 2,000 spectators. The

members support at home remained

steady with 819 Fever members. Away

games continued to prove taxing with

the extensive air travel reaching over

53,000km covered in 2011, and those

athletes with Diamonds commitments

fl ying approximately 90,000km.

Fever athletes spent more time

playing in the State Netball League

competition during and at the

completion of the season to sustain

match fi tness. They spent time

engaging those in the netball

community by attending association

appearances at Southern Districts,

Perth, Fremantle, Joondalup,

Noranda, Foothills, Eastern Hills,

Kalamunda, Swan Districts, Belmont,

Rockingham, Mandurah, Success and

Wanneroo. Fever held Netball Clinics

at Wanneroo and Fremantle in 2011.

The Fever Athletes coached at these

clinics and 370 netballers attended

the clinics held in June and July.

National Teams

Three Western Australian athletes

were selected in the 2011 Australian

Diamonds Squad, these being Caitlin

Bassett and Susan Fuhrmann from

the West Coast Fever and Kate

Beveridge from the Melbourne Vixens.

In January 2011, the Diamonds

toured Jamaica. Beveridge and

Fuhrmann were named in this team,

where Australia won the fi rst game,

drew the second and lost the third

match of the series.

Bassett and Fuhrmann were named

in the Diamonds team that played two

test matches against the Silver Ferns

in June 2011 in the lead-up to the

2011 World Championships.

Both athletes were selected in the

Australian Diamonds Team for

the 2011 World Championships,

held in Singapore in July. After

a comprehensive round robin

competition, Australia faced a

determined Malawi team in the

quarter-fi nals, comprehensively beat

the Jamaican Sunshine Girls in the

semi-fi nal before beating the New

Zealand Silver Ferns by one goal in an

overtime heart stopper. Bassett shot

the winning goal for the Diamonds.

Following the World Championships,

Bassett and Fuhrmann were again

selected for the Diamonds to play in

the 2011 Holden Netball Test Series

in October against England and

New Zealand. Fuhrmann sustained

an ankle injury which prevented

her from playing the three tests

against England; however she was

included for the three tests against

New Zealand. Bassett played all six

matches against both teams. The

Diamonds won both test series.

Sarah East was selected in the 21U

Australian Team that toured New

Zealand in June 2011. Sarah, a 2011

AIS Scholarship Holder, also travelled

to Singapore with the AIS Squad

to train and play against several

international teams in the lead-up to

the World Championships.

West Coast Fever player and WAIS

scholarship holder, Courtney Bruce

was named in the 19U Australian

Netball Team.

Western Australian Institute of Sport

(WAIS) Program

The WAIS Netball Program provides

the daily training environment

and support services for Western

Australian athletes, either currently

in the National Program or identifi ed

as potential international or emerging

international athletes. World-class

coaching, training facilities and

support services in the areas of sport

science, sports medicine and athlete

education are offered to selected

athletes as they progress through the

elite pathway. The WAIS Program

is led by highly credentialed Head

Coach Michelle Wilkins; a former

Australian representative, AIS Head

Coach and High Performance Coach.

Australian National League -

Western Sting

Western Sting was Netball WA’s

representative in the 2011 Australian

National League (ANL). This

competition is an amateur open

aged round robin, home and away

competition consisting of preliminary

rounds and fi nals contested by every

state and territory. This competition

provides a crucial development

opportunity for those potential and

emerging international athletes looking

to gain selection into the West Coast

Fever team.

Western Sting had many strong

performances in 2011 and fi nished

in 2nd place after the round robin

competition. Following a tough

encounter against Victoria Fury in the

semi-fi nal, they played Queensland

Fusion in the 3rd place fi nal. Western

Sting had a narrow 1-goal win

against the Fusion in the round

robin competition and had to fi ght

hard in the play-off to secure third

place overall.

Jon Fletcher was appointed coach

of the Sting in 2011 and was well

assisted by Michelle Wilkins.

State Teams

The 2011 17U and 19U National

Netball Championships were held

in Brisbane in April. The Western

Australian 17U Team was competitive

and fi nished the round games in equal

4th place. A lower percentage saw

the WA team relegated to the bottom

half of the draw for the play-offs and

they fi nished 5th after fi nals.

The 19U Team, showed huge

improvement in 2011 with some close

and inspiring wins during the round

robin competition. After a strong

showing against New South Wales in

the semi-fi nal, Western Australia met

South Australia in the play-off for third

place. In a convincing display, where

they led from start to fi nish, the 19U

Team fi nished in 3rd place overall.

The 2011 21U National Netball

Championships were held in Melbourne

in August and the Western Australian

21U Team, although determined, faced

some tough and tight competition

against other states and achieved a

creditable 5th placing.

National Selectors attended

all National Underage Netball

Championships and the following

Western Australian athletes were

selected in the 17U and 19U National

Squads to attend the National Talent

Camp at the AIS in May: Numi Tupaea

was selected in the 17U Squad and

Courtney Bruce and Denise Shepley

in the 19U Squad. Additionally Jessica

Penny and Kaylia Stanton participated

in the 17U National Talent Camp as

invitees and Ellie Smart was also an

invitee for the 19U camp.

Courtney Bruce was selected in the

21U Australian Squad named after the

completion of ANL.

Smarter than Smoking State

Netball League

The 2011 Smarter than Smoking

State Netball League (STSSNL) once

again proved to be a showcase for

Western Australia’s best netball talent.

8 of our 11 Regions were represented

across 3 Divisions - League, Reserves

and 18 & Under, with Coastal

Sharks, West Coast Falcons and

Midwest Tigers deservedly taking the

respective titles.

Games were played in Perth,

Geraldton, Eaton and Dongara, and

with games scheduled for Albany and

Northam in 2012, the competition has

become a truly statewide event.

2011 was a year of consolidation for

the STSSNL following on from the

many structural changes implemented

in 2010. However, it will most

certainly go down on record as one

of the most even and closely fought

competitions across all divisions, for

many years.

The STSSNL plays an integral role

in the Netball WA Development

pathway for Players, Coaches,

Umpires and Score Bench Offi cials.

There is a direct link from Association

Netball through to high performance

representation at State, ANL and ANZ

Championship level.

Smarter than Smoking

Association Championships

231 teams, comprising of 3465

athletes and offi cials, competed from

all over the State in 32 divisions, with

104 teams from country associations

and 127 from the metropolitan

associations. This event is the largest

held in WA for Netball and was

hosted by Perth Netball Association

in conjunction with Netball WA. Open

1 Division was won by Southern

Districts in a very close match vs

Fremantle. All Division 1 results are

listed in Section 2.

High Performance

7NETBALL WA 2010 ANNUAL REPORT


Academy Program

The 2011 Netball WA Regional

Academy Program continued to

provide a talent based tiered training

program, including off court education

modules for athletes 13-16 years

of age.

The Regional Academies incorporated

structured programs for coaches and

umpires which were run jointly by

Netball WA and the 11 metropolitan

and country netball regions forming a

state wide program.

The Netball WA Academy Cup held

in July 2011 at Arena Joondalup

provided the regions with the

opportunity to compete in a state

wide competition as a fi nale to their

involvement in the Regional Academy

Program. The competition provided the

athletes with the opportunity to gain

additional development and experience

at a state level as well as assisting in

their preparation in trialling for state

17U Phases. In addition the Academy

Cup provided a platform for mentoring

of WA’s up and coming coaches

and umpires and the opportunity for

selectors to view country athletes

and coaches for selection into the

Department of Sport and Recreation’s

Talent Development Program.

The Regional Umpire Academy

provides a pathway for talented

umpires into the Smarter than Smoking

State Netball League Squad or State

Academy, as well as providing the

opportunities to develop skills, gain

practical experience and be mentored

by some of the state’s best umpires.

24 Regional Academy Umpires were

invited to umpire at the Academy

Cup in which they received valuable

coaching from Umpire Panel

Members and Cadets. Regional

Umpiring Development Offi cers and

Association Umpiring Development

Offi cers were also invited to this event

to enhance their knowledge and skill-

set to assist with developing umpires

in their associations and regions.

The 17U and 19U State Academy

program provided an intensive

training program for the best 14 -18

age group athletes to help them

gain selection into the 17U and 19U

State Teams. The State Academy

program educates athletes on a

daily training environment and the

commitment, preparation, intensity

and performance it takes for them to

reach their potential.

The Netball WA State Umpire

Academy seeks to offer umpiring

opportunities, programs, theory

and coaching and mentoring from

members of the Umpire Panel with

a view to promoting these umpires

to the Smarter than Smoking State

Netball League matches. In 2011

we saw 10 umpires selected into

the State Academy with eight of

those being introduced onto the

Smarter than Smoking State Netball

League court.

Approximately 60 coaches,

330 athletes and 210 umpires were

involved in the Netball WA Academy

Program in 2011.

Department of Sport and Recreation

Regional Talent Development Program

The Department of Sport and

Recreation (DSR) Regional Talent

Development Program (RTDP) is

designed to offer talented athletes

residing outside the metropolitan

area development opportunities and

support as they progress through

the Netball WA Player Pathway.

The program aims to ensure that

these athletes have the opportunity

to continue their netball development

through the provision of appropriate

support and skills based programs

some of which is completed in their

home environment.

An important component of this

program is the future development of

local coaches by offering opportunities

for mentoring and assistance in

advancing in accreditation levels.

The DSR RTDP Network Coach

plays an important role in coaching

and mentoring as well as guiding the

development opportunities for athletes

and future coaches in country regions.

Fifteen athletes and fi ve coaches

were offered full scholarships for the

2010/11 scholarship round.

Four athletes from the DSR RTDP

Program were chosen to represent

Western Australia in the 17U State

Team - Charlotte Donovan, Maddison

Schultz, Kate Sidebottom and

Ashleigh Haydock. One athlete

from the Program was also chosen

to represent Western Australia in

the 19U State Team - Ingrid Colyer.

A further fi ve DSR RTDP athletes were

selected in the 17U and 19U State

Squads and one DSR RTDP coach

was appointed as an Apprentice

Coach to the 19U State Team.

Netball WA would like to thank

the Department of Sport and

Recreation for its continued support

of the program.

Indigenous Program, supported by


Netball WA continues to deliver

the Indigenous Netball Program to

support and assist community groups

in participating in netball within their

community. The program aims to

increase participation of Indigenous

players, coaches and umpires through

exposure to:

• Coach and Umpire

Education Courses

• Player, coach and umpire

pathways that lead into mainstream

competitions and programs

• Development and talent

identifi cation opportunities

• Up skilling of coaches, umpires and

other volunteers within their local

community

• Event and program coordination

Netball WA continues to foster and

strengthen relations with Indigenous

communities and organisations

such as the Department of Sport

and Recreation and indigenous

support agencies including the David

Wirrpanda Foundation and Nyoongar

Sports, to ensure a successful and

sustainable program.

Inclusion Program -

Disability

2011 saw Netball WA reconnect

with the Disability sector and take

the fi rst steps to having a sustainable

‘People with Disability’ program and

competition structure across the

State. Netball WA has taken the

approach to increase exposure of

children with a disability to netball

and to work on ensuring they also

have clear pathway into their local

association. Netball WA believes

that with increased interest and

a commitment from associations

on the importance of providing

a truly inclusive sport a player

pathway would emerge.

Netball WA rolled out the Inclusion

NetSetGO! Disability program to

13 Education Support Centres

across the state totalling in 325 new

NetSetGO! participants.

During the year Atwell College,

Endeavour Education Support Centre

and Rockingham Senior High School

Education Support Centre joined

together and took their NetSetGO!

students to Success Netball

Association for a NetSetGO! Fun Day.

A major component for the day was

a round robin competition allowing

for participants to get a sense of

what it might be like to play at a

netball association.

Endeavour Education Support

Centre were lucky enough to ‘Win a

Diamond Clinic’, with many fantastic

entries being received. The clinic saw

Caitlin Bassett and Susan Fuhrmann

conduct a fun and interactive clinic.

The current PWD competitions for

adults in Geraldton and Fremantle

are still going strong and with further

assistance will continue to grow.

Coach Education and Development

The Foundation, Development,

Advanced and Elite Coach

Accreditation Courses were delivered

in 2011 with good participation rates

across all courses. A few minor

changes to the accreditation courses

in 2011 saw course presenters

attend an up skilling day in October

with Carol Byers - Netball Australia

Coach & Athlete Development

Manager. The Intermediate course

was not delivered in 2011 however

participants who had commenced

courses in 2009 and 2010 completed

the fi nal units of the course gaining

their Intermediate Accreditation in

2011. The manuals, workbooks

and DVD resources provided by

Netball Australia for the Foundation,

Development and Advanced coaching

courses continue to be a valuable

coaching tool and provide great

references for the coaches.

The Down to Earth coach education

program was rolled out by Netball

Australia in 2010. Up-skilling of

presenters commenced in 2011

to enable delivery in 2012 of this

valuable coach education program

within the Associations and Regions.

The Coaches in the Field programs

continue to be delivered by the

Associations and the Regions.

Coach Education sessions

commenced in February with former

Australian captain and player Vicki

Wilson, AIS coach Sue Gaudion

and former Silver Ferns coach

Yvonne Willering visiting WA and

delivering some very interesting

sessions to the High Performance,

State, State Netball League and

Specialist School coaches. Netball

WA High Performance Manager

Jon Fletcher provided coach

education opportunities through

the Locker Room series at Fever

home games and April saw High

Performance Coach Lyn Pemberton

deliver a session on shooting

technique to the attendees at the

Netball WA AGM Conference. The

Smarter than Smoking Association

Championships in June provided

another coach education opportunity

for coaches and players alike,

having High Performance coaches

Jon Fletcher deliver sessions on

circle defence and Lyn Pemberton

deliver coach education sessions on

shooter movements and rotation.

Regional visits provided another

platform for the regional coaches

to get the opportunity for coach

education sessions.

State Netball League, High

Performance Coaches and State

Team coaches were invited to

attend sessions with Jill McIntosh in

September. The sessions covered

analysis of the Australia versus New

Zealand World Championship game,

The Art of Winning and Staying

Positive / Mental Toughness.

In November Glenn Stewart, High

Performance Manager of the West

Coast Eagles followed up on Jill’s

session on the Art of Winning

delivering a session on Good Player

or Good Coach. Jill also worked with

potential High Performance coaches

delivering a court session to the 19U

State Academy athletes and gave

the coaches valuable insight into the

requirements of the High Performance

Course on how to prepare themselves

for the course.

State Netball League Coaches, High

Performance Coaches, Netball WA

Specialist School Coaches, State

Team Coaches, Regional Development

Offi cers and Coaching Course

Presenters were invited to attend the

Netball WA professional development

weekend based around the

International Games in October.

This professional development

provided opportunity for our course

presenters and coaches to attend

presenter and coach up-skilling

sessions with Netball Australia,

Netball WA and Jill McIntosh.

Netball WA once again looks

forward to providing coach education

and accreditation opportunities for

members in 2012.

Scoolnet, supported by


ScoolNet has continued to maintain

its high profi le status as a sporting

program option in primary schools

within Western Australia. The program

has been able to directly infl uence

and expose thousands of Western

Australian primary school children

by promoting, developing and

providing access to netball in a fun

and safe environment. The ScoolNet

program continues to grow strongly,

with 12481 students participating

in the program through clinics

or competitions.

Through 2011 Netball WA has also

developed a strong relationship with

key disability support services such

as DSR-SportsCONNECT, Inclusion

WA, Therapy Focus and Disability

Services Commission.

A major focus for the future will be

the re-engagement of people with a

disability who have previously been

exposed to netball. To ensure the

program can take the next step we

believe that it is essential that we

support association and clubs to

be inclusive through training and

education. With the assistance

of Inclusion WA a Netball specifi c

“Disability Awareness” training package

will be developed and the NWA

Development Unit staff looks forward

to delivering this to associations and

clubs throughout 2012.

Thanks to the Department of Sport

and Recreation for their continued

support of this Program.


Specialist Schools

Netball WA in consultation with the

Department of Education (DoE)

continued to endorse four high

schools as Specialist Netball Schools.

These schools were Aranmore

Catholic College, Darling Range

Sports College, Melville Senior

High School and Warwick Senior

High School.

All schools were required to meet

specifi c standards and criteria set

by Netball WA and the DoE and

demonstrate that they could provide

a program that follows the Netball WA

athlete, coach and umpire pathways

and focuses on the holistic approach

to student development.

Additionally, the Specialist Netball

Schools received servicing from

Netball WA in the areas of athlete,

coach and umpire development and

were expected to establish links to

local clubs and associations and be

affi liated to Netball WA.

San Remo NetSetGO!

San Remo NetSetGO! has been

developed to provide children from

5 to 10 years with the best possible

learning and playing experience to

develop a positive introduction to

netball, ensuring enjoyment and

continued participation. Individuals

experience personal achievement in

terms of competence, enhanced self-

esteem, social co-operation and skill

development in a fun environment.

The San Remo NetSetGO! Program

continues to support the broader

community by offering Inclusion

NetSetGO! to CaLD, Disability and

Indigenous participants. The Inclusion

NSG! Program is funded by Australian

Sports Commission through Netball

Australia to increase the quality

of opportunity for marginalised

or disadvantaged groups to play

or volunteer in organised sports

such as netball.

Umpiring

The umpiring focus in 2011 was on

talent identifi cation throughout all

regions to increase the number of

umpire coaches, mentors and testers

across the state. During the season

a total of 50 umpires were talent

identifi ed. A total of 48 Umpires

have been invited to participate in

the Smarter than Smoking State

Netball League umpire squad in 2012

with a further 28 umpires invited to

participate in the 2012 Netball WA

State Academy.

2011 saw a marked increase in the

number of badges awarded across

the state, with a total of 158 umpires

receiving badges in 2011, compared

to 103 in 2010. This was a signifi cant

improvement and the Netball WA

Umpiring staff, Association and

Regional Umpire Development

Offi cers along with Netball WA’s High

Performance Umpire Panel should

be commended for the outstanding

efforts during the season.

The badges were as follows:

A Badge: 4 and 3 Endorsement

B Badge: 13

C Badge: 138

The Smarter than Smoking State

Netball League Squad achieved a

number of outstanding results in 2011

including successfully exposing a

number of new and young umpires

to the Smarter Than Smoking State

Netball League. Tara Crowley and

Gemma Nevin were selected to

umpire at the 17U and 19U National

Netball Championship in Brisbane in

April. A number of squad members

were also given the opportunity to

umpire during the Australian Netball

League; Jaclyn Berry, Nathan Cera,

Narelle Foster, Gemma Nevin, Laura

Payne and Chloe Thurkle. Narelle

Foster also travelled to Adelaide

to umpire in the Australian Netball

League. The Member Organisation

Exchange Program operated in 2011

with Chloe Thurkle and Gemma

Nevin given the opportunity to gain

experience by umpiring in Netball

South Australia’s State Netball

League Competition.

Jacqui Jashari and Paula Ferguson

umpired in the ANZ Championship.

Paula Ferguson umpired at the World

Netball Championships where she

was allocated the semi-fi nal match

between New Zealand and England.

Ferguson was also awarded the

Gibson and Gibson Offi cial of the Year

at the 2011 ANZ Sports Star Awards

in December.

Jashari was also a member of Netball

Australia’s Grading and Endorsement

Panel in 2011.

Green Shirt Program

Netball WA continued to facilitate

the Green Shirt Program, which was

developed and supported by the

Department of Sport and Recreation.

The Green Shirt Program identifi es

and promotes community awareness

of umpires, recognises new offi cials

and is used as an avenue to up

skill the Green Shirt Coordinators

within the associations. The program

provides a clear pathway for umpire

development and encourages

beginner umpires.

Umpires within this program were

encouraged to complete the Level 1

Umpires Course, Section 1 Theory

Exam and Rules in Action session.

A total of 31 netball associations took

part in the program in 2011, thus

representing an increase in both the

number of associations and umpires

participating in the program.

Country Umpire Advantage Program

The Country Umpire Advantage

Program saw eight identifi ed umpires

offered the opportunity to participate

in a specifi c development weekend

that included theory sessions and

practical umpiring at the Perth

Netball Association. Several of these

umpires were then invited to join the

2012 Smarter than Smoking State

Netball League and State Academy

Umpire Squads.

Netball Australia - MO

Development Squad

Netball Australia identifi ed the

need to provide a nationally

consistent development program

at Member Organisation level to

increase the number of umpires

successfully progressing to higher

performance standards.

Up to ten umpires can be selected

in each MO and are provided with

practical and theoretical development

opportunities. Selected umpires may

be umpires already in the national

system working towards a higher

badge or umpires identifi ed with

the potential to be included in the

national system.

A senior mentor was appointed to

each squad and was responsible for

coordinating the Program on behalf of

Netball Australia. In 2011 this mentor

was Darlene Regali.

The 2011 Netball WA MO Umpire

Development Squad Umpires were:

• Tara Crowley

• Adriana Foster

• Abigal Garay

• Naomi Garay

• Gemma Nevin

• Chloe Thurkle

Note 1: Statement of Signifi cant Accounting Policies

This fi nancial report is a special purpose fi nancial report prepared in order to

satisfy the fi nancial reporting requirements of the Association’s Constitution.

The Board has determined that the Association is not a reporting entity.

The fi nancial report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements

of the following Australian Accounting Standards:

ASSB 1031: Materiality

No other Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements

of the Australian Accounting Standards Board have been applied.

The fi nancial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based

on historic costs and does not take into account changing money values,

or except where specifi cally stated, current valuations of non-current assets.

The following specifi c accounting policies, which are consistent with the

previous period unless otherwise stated, have been adopted in the preparation

of this fi nancial report.

(a) Income Tax

No provision for income tax has been raised as the Association is exempt from

income tax.

(b) Plant and equipment

Items of plant and equipment are measured at cost less

accumulated depreciation.

When parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives, they

are accounted for as separate items.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of plant and equipment are determined

by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of plant and

equipment and are recognised net within “other income” in profi t or loss.

Depreciation

Depreciation is recognised in profi t or loss on a straightline and

diminishing basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item

of plant and equipment.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are

as follows:

2011 2010

Plant and Equipment 3 years 3 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each

reporting date.



Notes to the Financial Statements Notes to the Financial Statements

Note 1: Statement of Signifi cant Accounting Policies (continued)

(c) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost

of inventories is based on the fi rstin fi rstout principle, and includes expenditure

incurred in acquiring the inventories and other costs incurred in bringing them to

their existing location and condition.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of

business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

(d) Employee benefi ts

Provision is made for the Association’s liability for employee benefi ts arising from

services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefi ts that are

expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts

expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefi ts payable later

than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future

cash outfl ows to be made for those benefi ts.

(e) Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Association has

a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and

it is probable that an outfl ow of economic benefi ts will be required to settle

the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future

cash fl ows that refl ects current market assessments of the time value of money

and the risks specifi c to the liability.

(f) Revenue

All revenue is recognised when received and is stated net of the amount of

goods and services tax (GST).

(g) Goods and services tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods

and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not

recoverable from the Australian Taxation Offi ce. In these circumstances, the

GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of

the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net

amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Offi ce is

included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet.

Cash fl ows are included in the statement of cash fl ows on a gross basis.

The GST components of cash fl ows arising from investing and fi nancing

activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classifi ed as

operating cash fl ows.

22 February 2012

Report on the Financial Report

We have audited the attached fi nancial report, being a special

purpose fi nancial report of Netball WA (Inc) for the fi nancial year

ended 31 December 2011 as set out on pages 36 to 44.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report

The Association’s Board is responsible for the preparation of the

fi nancial report and has determined that the basis of preparation

described in Note 1 to the fi nancial report is appropriate to

meet the requirements of the Association’s Constitution and is

appropriate to meet the needs of the members.

The Board’s responsibility also includes such internal as the

directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of a

fi nancial report that is free from material misstatement, whether

due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the fi nancial report

based on our audit. We have conducted our audit in accordance

with Australian Auditing Standards. Those Standards require

that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to

audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain

reasonable assurance whether the fi nancial report is free from

material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence

about the amounts and disclosures in the fi nancial report.

The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement,

including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement

of the fi nancial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making

those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control

relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the

fi nancial report in order to design audit procedures that are

appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of

expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal

control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of

accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting

estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall

presentation of the fi nancial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is suffi cient

and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
