Netball's Grand Day Out: A Spring Spectacular

Get ready for heart-stopping intercepts and swish nothing-but-net shots, a netball extravaganza is poised to launch, promising more fun than a bounce pass in the rain. It's not just any fundraiser; it's a passing parade, a contact collision, and an obstruction odyssey all rolled into one at A Spring Day on the Lawn - in aid of BNA’s Harvest Festival Queen Entrant, Dayna Linton.

This year, the event is spicing things up with a delightful twist, The Battle of the Balls. Imagine Rugby Union, Rugby League, and Football teams facing off against our local netball heroes – the old boys and the young guns, causing onlookers to barrack for their favourite ball carrier.

Be there when a lucky local will win $10K!

With two hundred club members participating, each netball player was assigned a unique number between 1 and 200. The lucky number will be drawn at the Spring Day on the Lawn netting its winner a very cool $10,000. It's a game of chance more thrilling than a perfectly timed interception.

For those looking to elevate their netball experience, the Spring Day on the Lawn Marquee awaits. Tickets to this exclusive event are a mere $40 and secure your spot at a shaded table. Expect delectable food, and DJ Brendan spinning tunes.

Tickets for the Netball Spectacular are conveniently available at the Clubhouse on Thursday and at NQIB in Young Street, Ayr. It promises to be a wonderful, laid-back day, and the organisers warmly encourage members to extend the invitation to their friends and fellow netball enthusiasts for a fantastic family day out.

The bar will be open, offering a variety of refreshing drinks, and the BBQ will be sizzling all day. As the sun sets and the netball action continues, DJ Brendan will ensure the mood remains upbeat well into the night. So why not make a plan to come along in the afternoon, stay for dinner, and enjoy a truly relaxed and entertaining day, surrounded by the spirit of camaraderie and netball passion?
