Noosa Netball Association is about half way through it’s adjusted season and powering along under COVID-19 restrictions.
The juniors would normally be at the championship stage of the competition beginning in March but the shutdown of sport delayed the start of the season to just after the July school holidays with the finals in October.
Association president Beverly Bullivant said they had 36 teams competing across the Shire, playing on a Thursday night instead of Saturday mornings with the seniors playing Monday nights with 30 teams.
Beverly said while the association dropped a few teams because of COVID-19 and decided not to run the canteen which had reduced their financial income but players had quickly become accustomed to introduced COVID-safe practices and they were looking forward to upcoming championships.
“We have five teams competing at the State Age Championships in Maroochydore in September so we are all pretty excited that it has got off the ground after all of the uncertainty with COVID,” she said.
