Feedback from the WY County AGM

Quick note to let club members know what happened at the AGM this week. There was a well done to everyone, a feeling that WY has had a good season in both club and school netball, and that Yorkshire has a number of athletes in the England system. Lots of this success for WY is through LANC, with many of the GSAL and Greenhead players, our success in national clubs finals and premier league, and most of those in the England system are LANC members. Well done.
There was rightly a huge thanks to all the volunteers and those who make the game happen, from administrators to umpires and of course the coaches. The county is trying to progress developments for athletes, umpires and clubs etc, so watch this space. In the junior meeting, the biggest pile of trophies was for Leeds, so I have u16, u14, u12 winner and runner up, and u11 medals! The only issue in the juniors was the number of points deducted for incorrect scorecards, especially u11. We weren't one of the worst offenders, but it's worth us noting so that we don't lose any points at all next year.
Watch this space for the big summer of netball, where England Netball are trying to increase participation in the 16-25 age range.
