Dear Surrey Netballers
In view of the ongoing public health situation with Covid-19, SCNA has taken the decision to suspend the County Adult and U16 Leagues. The Surrey Netball League has also suspended its fixtures and other leagues may follow. We will be referring to any decisions made by England Netball regarding promotion/relegation matters, but of course we would hope that we can finish this season's fixtures so that teams have the opportunity to celebrate success and go forward to seek entry into higher leagues. We will do what we can to achieve these aims.
Following the sessions this week (w/b 16 March) there will be no further Surrey U13 and U15 academy sessions taking place. Decisions will need to be made in due course about arrangements for trials for the academies for next season, and we will keep schools and clubs informed.
Other activities such as umpire courses and end of season rallies and tournaments will have to be decided on a case by case basis by the local organisers, but if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us at county, or your local leagues. We are monitoring the England Netball website and would expect that there will be further advice and guidance issued shortly. We hope to continue our county executive meetings by remote means, so that we can discuss issues and make future decisions, and we can keep everyone informed and up to date.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. The important thing is for all netballers, their families, supporters, coaches, officials and volunteers to be well and health, and be ready to resume netball when we are reassured it is safe to do so.
