🏐 Aaaand that’s a wrap on our 2026 Blackwater Senior Mixed Netball season! 💙🩵🤍
Another season of questionable shooting, outstanding footwork 🥴, sore joints and just one more Tuesday has come to an end… 👀

Special thanks to:

* 🩵 Stacey for giving up her Tuesday nights to umpire despite not playing.
* 🩵 Shannon for umpiring, helping out our volunteer umpires and the extra behind-the-scenes work.
* 🌭 Kim Vaughan & Jack Danbury for stepping in at the last minute to run the sausage sizzle - legends 💪🏼
