Swannies
attend Umpiring Course
4
Swannies attended an Umpiring Course, (organised by Hants
Netball) last Saturday.
Sandy Miles, one of our Junior
Coaches, and
3 U15's, Rachel Carrick, Katie Ward
and Laura Rudland.
We're hoping that some mentoring for the umpires will take
place in the Spring, on Monday evenings to bring them up to
speed and help them through their Beginners Award.
It's very important that we continue to expand our gallant
bunch of umpires, as we need them to help support the ever
increasing demands on our current workforce!!

Report from
Nicole Pollock from the
South Region round of the
National Schools Tournament
on 30th January 2010,
at the Kingsmead Netball Centre, High Wycombe.
"On Saturday 30th January, Sarah
Bull and I played for the
Thornden School U16's in the South Region round of the National
Schools Competition.
It was a really thrilling and exhilerating tournament despite
the freezing weather. We played a total of eight matches,
seven minutes each way and the tournament went on all day.
I would say our greatest match was the semi-finals as it was
the most gripping and it was the first match in which we played
as a proper team. At the end of full time, we were drawing,
so we went on to play two minutes each way extra time.
It was at this point where we all realised how much we wanted
to win (especially the year 11's as it was their last year).
At the end of extra time we had won 4-0 and completely outplayed
them. We felt ecstatic! Although we did not win
the tournament, we came runners up and therefore
are through to represent the South Region (which was our ultimate
aim) in the finals of the National Schools Tournament to
be held at Roedean School on March 20th".
Congratulations
to Nicole and Sarah, and we wish Thornden
all the very best in the finals, whoich take place on 20th
March, at Rodean School, Brighton
Jilly
ran a "Taster Umpiring Course"
on Saturday.
20 players attended and all of them had the opportunity to
"blow the whistle", and sone of our U13's came along
to help play.
A
great introduction and it'll give them that extra bit of confidence
when they attend the Beginner's Course in March.
Big
thank you to everyone who came, and especially to Jilly.

Clubmark
Only clubs that are affiliated to a Sport England recognised national
governing body (NGB) can gain Clubmark accreditation.
Currently 30 national governing bodies of sport (NGBs) are
licensed to award Clubmark. These cover a diverse array of
sports from ball games such as cricket and rugby to watersports
like canoeing and rowing.
About
Clubmark
Sport England recognises and values the commitment made by
sports clubs to develop high quality, welcoming environments
for young participants. The development of clubs that encourage
young people to take-up sport, improve their talents, possibly
play a leadership role and give them the option to initiate
and maintain life-long participation in sport is an essential
part of supporting the sporting infrastructure in England.
Clubmark was introduced in 2002 by Sport England to:
• Ensure that accrediting partners apply core common
criteria to ensure that consistent good practice and minimum
operating standards are delivered through all club development
and accreditation schemes.
• To empower parent(s)/carer(s) when choosing a club
for their children.
• To ensure that Clubmark accredited clubs are recognised
through a common approach to branding.
• To provide a focus around which all organisations involved
in sport can come together to support good practice in sports
clubs working with children and young people.
Clubmark accreditation is awarded to clubs that comply with
minimum operating standards in four areas:
• The playing programme
• Duty of care and safeguarding and protecting children
and young people
• Sports equity and ethics
• Club management
Clubs working towards accreditation can receive support and
advice from their NGB and other partners such as county sports
partnerships (CSPs). Circumstances will vary between clubs
and sports but the process of accreditation is the same. There
is only one set of paperwork to complete and in general most
clubs are well on the way to achieving accreditation without
realising it.
MASSAGE
THERAPIST AVAILABLE
Dear netballer,
My name is Kim Skene and I play netball for JHC Netball Club
in the Southampton League. I also coach at local clubs including
Winchester NC, Slug and Lettuce NC, and 1st team Coach at
Peter Symonds College in Winchester as well as various schools.
I am a fully qualified Swedish Massage Therapist and am now
a fully qualified Sports Massage Therapist, so I can now specialise
in the treatment of sports people who have a particular interestin
netball.
Having learnt a whole range of techniques and methods on the
sports massage course, I am keen to bring these into my business
set up and to that end am looking for players who have particular
injuries or problems who feel that a sports massage would
give them a deeper, more specialised approach rather than
a general massage.
For people registered with the AENA – which is basically
all club members – I am offering a reduced rate for a
30 minute treatment of £20.00. There would be a full
consultation prior to the first treatment.
A bonus for clients is that I am able to travel to your home
to do the treatment, as well as you being able to come to
me. As long as the travelling distance is not too far –
I live in Fair Oak near Eastleigh – there will be no
extra charge for petrol.
If you would like to take advantage of this offer, or you
have any queries or questions regarding it, please contact
me on my mobile telephone or, preferably, email me as detailed
below.
Many thanks for your support in this new venture and I look
forward to hearing from you.
With kind regards,
Kim Skene

IMPORTANT
BITS FROM
UPDATE No.7
Talking
about snow and ice, that leads us onto......
ICE
Message from the Ambulance Service
The concept of ICE is catching
on quickly. It is a method of contact during emergency situations.
As mobile phones are carried by the majority of the population,
all you need to do is store the number of a contact person or
persons who should be contacted during an emergency
under the name ICE -
In Case of Emergency.
The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when he
went to the scenes of accidents there were always mobile phones
with patients but they didn't know which number to call.
He therefore thought it would be a good idea if there was a
nationally recognised name for this purpose.
In an emergency, the Emergency Services /hospital staff would
be able to quickly contact the right person by simply dialling
the number you have stored as
ICE.
For more than one contact, simply enter ICE1, ICE2

SUPPORTING
ALL OUR TEAMS
If you're playing early then we really do encourage you (whenever
possible) to support our later teams for at least 1/2 game and
if you're playing late then whenever possible do come early
and support our 10.30am team. Support is vital and really does
work its magic as everyone likes to hear lots of encouragement
and acknowledgement of good play. Our Regional team too appreciate
you being there for them, and play on Sundays. Their home games
are either at Crestwood or Wyvern so if you're able to come
along and watch some breathe taking netball then please do so.
Full details of who they are playing is on the website.
UNABLE
TO ATTEND TRAINING FOR ANY REASON??
Could you please ensure you continue to notify your league captain
if you are unable to attend training on Thursday evenings. Captains,
please keep an attendance log for us - many thanks.
MOBILE
PHONE PROJECT
Don't forget we are collecting old mobile phones for recycling
and would appreciate you rummaging around your drawers for old,
broken unwanted phones that we can turn into cash for the Club
- £3 per phone so this could buy some serious specialist
equipment for your benefit.

SWAN
BLACK
Swan
Black 18
v 17 Gems
This was certainly a game of two halves! We
won the first quarter 6 -2. Clare our coach said it was
the best she had seen us play. Tempting fate or what!!
The second quarter 9 - 9 ouch!
Third quarter pulled it back 11- 16 to us.
Forth quarter was tight 18 - 17 just a win to us.
STILL lots of things to work on; changing of pace and direction,
cutting back, intercepting and keeping hold of the ball!
SWAN
GOLD
Possibly
our last match of the Flood lit season, another cold night,
we arrived and upon checking the results so far saw that
we were lying 3rd in our group, so onwards with our next
match – "Girls with Balls" you start wondering
how they got that name, then decide that it’s best
not to analyse these things too much. They had first centre
pass which we turned over, and then went on to score 2 more
goals. The feeling of nerves start to drain away as we realised
that they are not as scary in real life as they sound, then
they scored 3 goals in a row and suddenly the nerves start
flooding back as you realise it’s not going to be a
push over. We then scored and are in the lead again as the
1st quarter finishes. We settled down in the 2nd quarter
and our passing becomes more accurate and fluid, Tricia
got a hard time as she was frequently double marked, and
their marking was very good but their passing and judgement
let them down and at the end of the 2nd quarter our lead
was widening. The third quarter seemed to get quite physical,
with lots of grappling with the ball on the floor, they
were starting to get a bit frustrated by now, but we weren’t
going to let up and with our Swan Gold determination finished
the quarter 12-7 to us, the final quarter produced the end
result of 13-9, a satisfying and well earned result to end
the season!
