Weather Policy
We certainly got to test the Weather Policy on Saturday! Thanks to all players/coaches and to the Competition Coordinators who had to work their way through this policy in real time! Generally the plan is to avoid having to cancel any games however once a game has commenced outside they will not be brought inside to play. Competition Coordinators will attempt to make the call early but we also don’t want to play half games if we can get full games in so the preference is to play all games as per schedule.

Weather Policy
This is probably an opportune time to remind you all of the Weather Policy http://www.menanetball.com.au/files/42293/files/2019/20190528weatherpolicy.pdf
Now we have the luxury of indoor courts and the weather is forecast to be particularly horrible tomorrow! The important points to highlight:
All teams should report to the courts at their fixtured time and they will be notified of any rescheduling
Competition Coordinators in conjunction with Umpires Convenor will make decisions timeslot by timeslot
Our intention is to not cancel any games – they may be shortened to allow all to play indoors

Final round of grading for 11’s, 13’s, 15’s 17’s and Opens this week so there will be changes to fixtures early next week. We will do our best to have all changes finalised by Tuesday, 6th August, 5pm.
Feedback for Grading Committee
As noted previously this is due back to us on the attached form by 3pm Monday, 5th August. This is for all teams other than NetSetGo – grading for them will be completed on 24th August.
Ladders
Due to the grading games being different than normal round games we have to manually adjust all ladders. This will take some time to do so please be patient. We will aim to have all ladders up to date and accurate by Round 9.
