Introducing our monthly newsletter with everything you need to know about Pewsey Netball Club. Full article available to download below. 

As voted by our members this year our Charity of the Year will be Julia's House. We will be raising money for them through our Charity Netball Tournament and our Ball. 

Today twelve of us went to a Technical Training Session with Team Bath's Kim Commane. We mainly focused on defence but also looked at centre passes and back line throws as well as lots of ball skills. Plenty to practice on Wednesday. We look forward to supporting Kim and Team Bath at future Superleague games. 

In support of England Netball's Couch to Court campaign this January Pewsey Netball Club are offering all new members two free sessions starting Wednesday 8th January. We are a friendly and sociable club with a mix of ages (16+) and abilities who are always looking for new members. 

If you would like more information or to let us know you're coming please get in touch via the 'Contact Us' page, email us at pewseynetball@gmail.com or visit our facebook page (www.facebook.com/pewseyvalenetball). We look forward to welcoming you.  

Saturday 7th December was the Pewsey Vale Rugby Ball. We had one table of netball ladies but many more were there too. A great night was had by all with a few of us feeling slightly worse for wear on Sunday! We're really looking forward to hosting our own ball on Saturday June 20th now, the planning has started already. More information to come in the new year. 

Weds 11th December was our annual Christmas Tournament. We had an amazing turn out with 4 teams made up of all Pewsey players competing in a round robin versatility tournament. We started the night with an obstacle race warm up. All teams then played each other. We finished off the evening with minced pies, mulled wine and hot chocolate but not before announcing the fancy dress winners. As always the fancy dress was very well contested but there could be only one winner...Jodie!! Closely followed by Sarah and Nicole. 

You may have seen England Netball announced their new campaign 'Couch to Court' this week which will start in January. It aims to remove some of the barriers stopping women from playing netball and encourage them to stay playing. 

We're supporting this campaign and as always welcome new players of any ability. More information will come after Christmas, link below for more information.

Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year all.

Carnival is a big thing in Pewsey: wine race, beer race and the main procession. This year 4 girls from Game Of Throws netball team in Manchester who we play against in Spain also joined us. While they were down we took the opportunity to organise Pewsey Whites first game on Saturday morning. A brilliant game with a close final score of 16-12 to G.O.T with Scarlet getting POM. 

Wine race was last weekend and saw us dressing up as Calendar girls with a netball twist. Tied together in teams of 3 or 4 you make your way around Pewsey drinking wine at each stop. We made it around in one piece minus Elaine's shoe! Beer race was next which involved decorating our wheelbarrow. Women In Sport was our theme for Beer race and Carnival with everyone taking a different sport. Sadly we have to wait until next year to do it all again, but no doubt they'll be another excuse soon enough for more fancy dress!
