Rule of the month

 

All teams should be on court promptly. If, when the bell signals the start of the game, only one team is on court ready to play and the opposition does not arrive within five minutes, then that quarter will not be played and the team causing the delay shall concede ten goals. If they do arrive the game will start in quarter 2. 

 

If the team does not arrive by the start of quarter 2 the game is void, with 5 points awarded to the team present and a score of 20:0. The team not present will lose 20:0 and have to pay the late cancellation fine.

A plea from the committee

If you want to take photos or videos of netball matches, permission must first be sought from Yarborough Sports Centre. Permission must also be sought from any individuals (playing, umpiring, or spectating) that could be included in the film or photographs. Please also inform any of the committee members prior to using photography equipment. If any minors are involved, parental consent must also be sought. Once all that is done, you're good to go!

 

Alternatively, if you want to take team photos, do it in areas where there is no-one in the background :)

 

Lincoln Netball League takes safeguarding very seriously and therefore any team found to be in violation of this rule (i.e. taking photos and videos without permission and having people in the background) will receive a conduct warning.

About us

Lincoln Netball League was established over 25 years ago by the legend that is Joyce Smith, The league is run by a small team of dedicated netballers whose only purpose, once we finish coaching, mentoring, umpiring and playing, is to enable you to do the same. And hopefully enjoy it as much as we do! 

The league is made up of three divisions: Premier, Division 1 and Division 2. We run a summer and winter league every year, playing on the outdoor courts at Yarborough Leisure Centre. We also run two tournaments a year: St Barnabas - entry is as a team and all monies raised goes towards our local hospice, St Barnabas; and Versatility, where entry is as an individual and teams are generated from across all three divisions as well as new players. Lastly, there are a number of friendlies that are played between seasons.
