It certainly feels like we are into winter sports now. Please ensure you message your coach/manager or Rachel Phillips if your child is unable to make it to their game. We had lots of sickness affect our teams last week but we managed to find fill in players so no teams had to default. Thank you to all the players who stepped up and filled in.

Miniball:

Thank you to all the children who stepped up and played two games or filled in for other teams last week. We could have had all of our Year 5/6 teams defaulting but all everyone managed to get enough players to field a team. Well done!

The Taieri Miniball website has the draw each week:- https://www.sporty.co.nz/taieriminiball

The policy with SNOW DAYS for miniball is that if schools are closed on that day, there is NO Miniball for that day. If it is a late start, then miniball continues as normal after school.

ALL children NEED a mouth guard to play miniball, so please ensure you have this ready to go.
