Noosa hosts its largest netball carnival

The Pacific Ford Noosa Netball Club Carnival was held at Noosa District Netball Association in Tewantin on 6 August.

Seventy teams were present for the event, coming from as far away as Hervey Bay and Brisbane, making it the largest carnival Noosa Netball has ever held, with 720 junior players gracing the courts.

The event was fortunate enough to even have two Sunshine Coast Lightning players present, Reilley Batchelador and Charlie Bell, as well as two players from Thunder, Nat Sligar and Leilani Rohweder, signing autographs and taking photographs with the players.

The Carnival also had a number of welcome contributors, being provided a barbecue and beverages by the Tewantin Noosa Lions Club, and a number of other food vendors.

The Club sends a big Thank you to their sponsor on the day Pacific Ford, who had a Ford Ranger Wildtrak displayed at the carnival.

Medals were awarded to both runners-up and winners on the day, spread across twelve divisions.
