THE Karuah Pearls Netball Club will participate as curtain-raisers for the Suncorp Super Netball Indigenous Round match between the NSW Swifts and Sunshine Coast Lightning on Saturday, 5 July.
The game will be played at Ken Rosewall Arena, Sydney Olympic Park.
The Pearls, members of the Port Stephens Netball Association, were invited to participate by Netball NSW and the Swifts.
“This opportunity is a testament to the club’s commitment to providing culturally supportive and inclusive pathways for young boys and girls in the Karuah community to engage actively in netball,” said Jodi Cassar PSM, President of the Port Stephens Netball Association.
“Under the dedicated leadership of President Pearl Manton, the club has been instrumental in fostering a sense of belonging and pride among its members.”
While the Pearls currently train at the Port Stephens Netball Association courts and Raymond Terrace, the club aspires to establish a full-sized, well-lit netball court in Karuah to better support their growing membership and the growing numbers of young families locally.
