Blue Round This Weekend

We would like to remind everyone that this weekend of our competition is our Blue Round on both Friday night and Saturday!

Blue Round is to raise awareness and reduce the stigma around mental health by supporting Beyond Blue. At this very moment, over one million Australians are experiencing depression and two million are experiencing anxiety. After the last couple of challenging years really affecting everyone’s physical and mental wellbeing, what better and more powerful platform is there in our CDNA community than netball to connect and support each other on and off the court to make it an unashamed part of our everyday conversations.

We will be marking the day with decorations, blue netballs etc. We will also have a limited supply of blue hair ribbons to buy for $1 a ribbon.

We are encouraging clubs and members to wear a splash of blue on both days, be it hair ribbons, socks, bibs, etc. Wearing blue is a symbolic action letting everyone know that speaking up and seeking help is okay.

Please pass this information onto your members and don’t hesitate to be in touch if you have any questions.

We look forward to seeing you all on the weekend!

Regards
