COACHES

URGENT PLEA - we need coaches to come forward to coach teams for the 2011 Season (all age groups).

We have only had about 4-5 coaches come forward to coach teams this year - so we are pleading for more coaches to now come forward. (we had 16 junior and 3 senior teams last year - we are planning on more this year)

The Jerra Joeys will pay for your insurance and rego costs for coaching with QNA for the year, plus we provide you with your kit (balls, first aid kit & cones), plus a coaching manual to help you get started. (plus any advice and help from our coaching co-ordinator and committee)
It's really not that hard - please do think about giving it a go. We'd love to have you join our coaching team.

For more info please contact our Coaching Co-Ord - Judy - by email at

** Jerra Joeys Black Hoodie Jumper (no zipper) with 'Joeys' emblem embroidered on the front chest (large), Joeys kangaroo emlem on the sleeve - and the option to have a name or 'Coach' printed on the lower back (so it can be seen under the hood) - 7 letters maximum.

** Jerra Joeys Black Tracksuit Pants (parachute material with zip on sides) with 'Joeys' printed in teal down one leg.

** Complete New Uniforms for Cadets (13-17) and Seniors for 2011 - a matching black and teal skirt and sleeveless top. (very similar design to last years Cadet bodysuit)
The skirt has scungies attached - and both are made out of a fabric smiliar to the bodysuit (although a slightly heavier fabric)
Cost: $90.00 (for the set - top and skirt)

All players are now required to purchase their own uniforms, as the club can no longer keep a stock of uniforms to 'rent out' as we (as a club) grow larger and costs increase.

Keep an eye out for the uniform order form - to be loaded on this blog by the end of the week together with the Registration forms.

For any concerns or queries about any of the uniform changes/additions - please contact Nea - on email neawoods@bigpond.net.au - or Cheryl by clicking on the above 'Contact' tab.


CADETS (13-17 years)

Grading sessions for Cadets will be held at the QNA courts on the following days -

Monday 28th February - 5:30-7:00pm

Saturday 5th March - 10:00-11:30am

These sessions will allow the club to place players in the applicable grade - as Cadets are graded into 4 divisions in the QNA comp with girls from mixed ages within each team.

We require players to attend both session if possible, so that our selectors can get a good feel for player abilities, and to ensure that players are placed in the correct division.

Please contact Laura if you can not attend one or both of these sessions - on email laura.gow@ga.gov.au .

Please also note the news regarding Cadet uniform changes for 2011 in the Uniforms topic above.

At this stage we are planning to have all cadet teams train together on Wednesday evenings at the QNA courts. (more details when they are confirmed)


SENIORS (18+)

We are again hoping to grow stronger within the Seniors ranks at QNA - and are on the look out for more Senior players this year.
If you know of anyone that might be interested in playing for the Joeys this year - please pass on our information.

We are looking into getting coaches for the teams - and hopefully also some sponsorship deals for our Div 1 & 2 teams.

Please also note the news regarding Senior uniform changes for 2011 in the Uniforms topic above.

Grading dates and times will be advised as soon as possible.
