Rodney netball winter competition cancelled

The Rodney Netball Centre in Wellsford has had to call time on its winter competition.

The Rodney Netball Centre winter competition has become the latest casualty of Covid-19.

The continued extension of Level 2.5 in Auckland means the competition cannot be completed in a reasonable timeframe.

“The committee has worked hard to look at options to allow some sort of season to continue,” the Centre said in a statement.

“However, after consultation with Northern Netball, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of the season.”

The statement said the centre committee would meet to discuss its financial situation and possible refunds.

It would also discuss holding a one-off tournament and possibly a summer league at the centre.

The centre committee said it was disappointed that it had not been able to finish the season the way they would have liked, and thanked everyone for their patience and commitment to netball.
