Lockyer Valley Netball Association Inc.

💛🖤 INTRODUCING OUR JUNIOR STATE AGE PLAYERS 🖤💛

Next Up, Ashleigh Zischke!

WORDS FROM THE COACH
After taking a break from netball Ash is back this year and she has hit the ground running in every sense of the word. Her work ethic is second to none and because of this she has improved out of sight this year. This work ethic and her excellent athleticism give her such a bright future with her netball, and I believe there truly is nothing she cannot achieve if she puts her mind to it.

Every week we give Ash a new challenge and every week she meets it head on and finds new ways to improve.

She is a driving force in our midcourt but more importantly I feel she is the glue that holds us all together. Even on days when she cannot play with the rest of the squad, she is always there in support and we’re always better for having her around. She is relentlessly bright and bubbly around our team and she brings a spark to every training and game day that cannot be replaced or replicated.

We’re very lucky to have you back Ash and we can’t wait to see what this year's carnival looks like with you as a part of it.

YASS QUEEN!

💛🖤 INTRODUCING OUR JUNIOR STATE AGE PLAYERS 🖤💛

Next Up, Maddison Cluff!

WORDS FROM THE COACH

On her second state age campaign this year Maddie is expanding her role this year and taking on the challenge as one of our primary circle defenders.

Her tenacity and determination making her a real pest for attackers from all over. She is extremely nimble and light on her feet and quick with her hands making her a dangerous combo with the rest of our defensive unit. While not coming in with a mountain of experience Maddie has developed extremely well this year and is excited to continue to expand her role within the team.

Off the court she is an absolute character. Always scheming and up to some sort of mischief with one of her many partners in crime. She brings a sense of joy and light heartedness to the team that helps to lighten the load when the days feel heavy for the rest of the team. Never taking herself too seriously she is always a timely reminder that netball is just as much about who you are off the court and not just while you’re playing.

It’s been a pleasure working with her so far and I’m excited to see how this year plays out on court for her after finding so much joy in her netball this year. Good Luck Maddie!

🖤💛 JUNIOR STATE AGE PRE CARNIVAL WRAP UP 🖤💛

The girls took to the courts in Toowoomba today in their final JSA pre carnival hit out. Up Against some very strong competition the girls got a real taste for Carnival intensity.

While the results for the day didn’t go our way. The commitment and passion that the girls displayed today showed us that netball is more about Friendship, Growth, Development and that trusting your teammates and working together to achieve your goals even when things don’t go your way is more important than the match results

This wonderful group of young ladies always give it everything and play with a smile on their face against any odds and every challenge.

The team did themselves and the Association proud today and we cannot wait to see how they apply the lessons learned today at the State Age Carnival in a few weeks.

Rest up ladies. Ice the bruises and get ready to do it all over again 🖤💛💪👸

Next Up, Savannah Chidlow!

WORDS FROM THE COACH
Holding things down in defence, Sav is an athletic powerhouse. Her incredible jumping ability, speed, and overall athleticism make her a dynamic and disruptive force on court.

She has an exceptional netball IQ and an impressive ability to read the play as it unfolds. The experience she gained from last year’s carnival has made her an invaluable asset to our team, while her versatility and midcourt experience give us a true “Swiss Army knife” player who can adapt to any challenge thrown our way.

Sav’s playful and relaxed personality helps her stay calm under pressure, and her willingness to take risks is one of my favourite parts of her game. She never backs down from a challenge and no obstacle is too large for her to overcome.

We’re incredibly excited to see what this year’s carnival has in store for her, and we’re expecting big things from her not only this year but in her netball journey for years to come.
