Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Year 6 and Year 7-8 competition and games?

There are no more modified rules, longer games (15-minute quarters instead of 10), and more chances to shine on the court. 

How many players are in a team?

We aim to have 10 players per team. A maximum of 10 players may take the court each game.

Does my child need to come to training?

Yes. Attendance at all training sessions is mandatory unless the player is unwell. Players must be dressed appropriately for training, no jewellery is to be worn and nails must be cut short. If for some reason the player is unable to attend then they must notify the coach as soon as possible. We will train in rain (the games go on, so the players must get used to playing in the rain). However if it is severe weather or lightning we will cancel training (Extreme Weather Policy). You will be advised by the team on the WhatsApp group if training has been cancelled.

Does my child need to play every game?

Players are expected to attend all games unless unwell. Arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled start, ready to take the court (dressed and strapped) for warm-up. Wear the full uniform, remove all jewellery (PNA does not allow taped earrings), and keep nails short. If unable to attend due to holidays or school activities, notify the coach and/or team manager as early as possible.

Do I need to help out as a parent?

Yes. As a Club run by volunteers we would love you to help out in any way. If you would like to contribute then email our secretary secretary@dynamitesnetballclub.com.au.

As a minimum you will need to either score/time a game as per a roster made up by the team manager. In addition please bring some fruit and lollies for the players to share at half time. If you are not available on the day of your rostered parent duty it is your responsibility to advise the team manager and swap with another parent at least a week in advance.
