Colo Netball Club

Congratulations to Colo player Alyrah!!!!! Take a read of her amazing accomplishment!!!!

🌟 Congratulations to Alyrah Micallef! 🌟

Netball NSW Performance Coaching Staff attended the recent HART Junior State Titles, identifying talent in the 14 years divisions.9

We are so proud to share that a Hawkesbury athlete was among the players Talent Identified by Netball NSW for their outstanding performances throughout the tournament – a remarkable achievement and recognition of their hard work, dedication, and skill on the court.

To be recognised among the state's top emerging netball talent is an outstanding accomplishment and a testament to her commitment throughout the representative season. We are incredibly proud and look forward to watching her continued growth and success both on and off the court.

While every athlete's journey looks different, being Talent Identified by Netball NSW is a significant milestone and one that should be celebrated.

💙 Congratulations Alyrah – Hawkesbury is proud of you! 💙

💗🏐 CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR COLO REPRESENTATIVES! 🏐💗

What a fantastic weekend of netball at the Junior State Titles!

A huge congratulations to all of our Colo Netball Club members who proudly represented the Hawkesbury Netball Association over three days of outstanding competition. We are so proud of your commitment, teamwork and sportsmanship.

🎉 Final Results
🥉 12 Years – 3rd Place
💙 13 Years – 13th Place
💙 14 Years – 11th Place

An incredible achievement by all three teams!

A special congratulations also goes to every Colo player, coach, manager, umpire and committee member who represented Hawkesbury throughout the 2026 rep season.

Many of these incredible volunteers not only dedicate their weekends to coaching, managing and umpiring for our Colo teams, but also give up countless additional hours throughout the year to support and develop our representative players.

Your dedication to netball, your commitment to our players, and the time you so generously give to the sport is truly inspiring. We are incredibly proud to have you as part of the Colo Netball Club family. 💗🏐

🌟 Special Shout Out! 🌟

A huge congratulations to Lateisha Van Den Nieuwboer, one of our A1 players, and Michelle Robertson, one of our amazing Saturday umpires, who were part of the coaching team for the Baulkham Hills U14s, helping lead their team to an outstanding 🥇 1st Place finish!

What an incredible achievement and a wonderful reflection of the quality and passion of our Colo community.

Congratulations to everyone who represented Hawkesbury and beyond this weekend. Whether you were playing, coaching, managing, umpiring or supporting from the sidelines, you have done both Hawkesbury Netball Association and Colo Netball Club proud.

💗 Well done, everyone! We couldn't be prouder. 💙

💗 ⚠️ This is a long post... but if you've ever wondered how community clubs survive, it's worth the read. 💗

Community sporting clubs don't run on registration fees alone.

They run on volunteers giving up weekends.
They run on local businesses backing local kids.
They run on mums, dads, grandparents and friends grabbing dinner at a sponsor's venue, buying raffle tickets, attending events, donating prizes and saying "How can I help?"

That's what keeps clubs like Colo Netball Club going. 🩷🖤

Our club simply couldn't do what it does without the incredible support of our players, families, volunteers and local community.

Every time you use your Colo Netball Club RG McGees Card, you're helping our club grow.

There’s no better way to celebrate our RG McGees Team of the Week than hearing directly from their coach 💗

"I’d love to nominate my NSG team for team of the week. We had a tricky start to the season but have seen a shift in how the girls are turning up to training and games. We’ve been working hard on listening during training and taking on coach feedback. This is reflective in how they’re playing - they’ve had a few really great games in the past few weeks! We’ve seen some beautiful passes, intercepts, teamwork and, of course, some giggles on court. They had a great win this week 8-1, last time we played this team we had a close game so this is such a good reflection of the girls improvement."
