This year we re aiming to raise $250,000 towards community netball programs such as our Inclusion NetSetGO program and community introductory programs giving more than 5,000 young girls a chance that they wouldn t ordinarily have to play netball and thrive, both on and off the court.

3 ABOUT CONFIDENT GIRLS Confident Girls is the main grass roots campaign of the Netball Foundation the fundraising arm of Netball Australia and partner of the Australian Netball Diamonds team. We know that sport is a powerful tool in empowering girls to be happy and healthy. Every week, millions of girls around Australia walk off the netball court with the confidence that comes from being part of a team, enjoying the bond of a shared experience and the benefits of regular exercise. They also build the kind of resilience that is learnt from winning and losing, and taking the good with the bad. But for many reasons, not all girls have the chance to participate. In Australia, more than 600,000 children live below the poverty line and don t have the opportunity to be part of a sporting team. Many families cannot afford to pay sport fees, buy a uniform and shoes to play in, or get transport to sporting events. Some schools don t offer sports activities or have the money to buy equipment. And unfortunately, many girls lack the self-confidence to get involved or their cultural background doesn t encourage them to be physically active. In 2016 Confident Girls is aiming to raise $250,000 to give disadvantaged girls the opportunity to play netball. More importantly, we re giving girls a chance to have fun, make friends and be healthy, confident and resilient. So by supporting Confident Girls, you are giving more girls the chance to be the best they can, on and off the court. WHY GIVING MATTERS 602,604 children (17.7% of all children) live below the poverty line 14.7% of Australian women live in poverty Women are significantly more likely to experience poverty than men Obesity among girls is most common at ages 5 7 and More boys (70%) than girls (56%) participate in sports Women in Australia earn just 82 cents in the male dollar (17.9% less) Children born in Australia (73%) have higher sports participation rates than those born in non-english speaking countries (53%) Coverage of women in sport makes up 9% of all sports coverage Netball Foundation Fundraising Starter Kit 3

4 WHERE DOES THE MONEY RAISED GO? 100% of donated funds received by Confident Girls go towards funding netball programs, equipment and coaching in disadvantaged communities across Australia through programs such as Inclusion NetSetGO and community introductory programs. Here s how your donation can help: $ 15 Pays for a Participant pack, including a take-home netball. $ 25 Pays for a disadvantaged girl to try netball at an Inclusion NetSetGO clinic. $ 50 Pays for a coordinator to complete the Foundation Coaching Course. $ 200 Pays for a disadvantaged girl to try netball at an 8 to 10 week Inclusion NetSetGO or community program. $ 250 Pays for a coach to mentor community volunteers. $ 300 Buys all the balls and equipment for an Inclusion NetSetGO or community program for 40 disadvantaged girls.

5 OUR SUCCESS STORIES Netball promotes teamwork in young students learning by distance 45 students from Northern Territory s distance education school Katherine School of the Air, played netball through Inclusion NetSetGO for the first time in Students were visited by the school s Netball Ambassador Leanne Bugg as part of their Health and P.E program, and participated in the program s activities in small groups of three to four. The Inclusion NetSetGO program was also undertaken during the four contact events throughout the year, when all students come together in town. The kids absolutely love netball, Bugg said. Many of them don t get to play team sports in our context very often. So to be able to be a part of a team and play sport that is so inclusive, we are able to build on their foundation skills. Bugg said the main reason the school wanted to implement netball was to allow students to explore the value of teamwork and working together to achieve something. In our context it was important to have that opportunity, Bugg said. It was really good because netball is a game that can be adjusted to include the real younger students with basic ball skills, the pre-schoolers, right up until the older ones, who were keen for a game. Netball helps attendance at Wugularr School Netball is helping the children at Wugularr School, about 120 kilometres south-east of Katherine, thrive thanks to teacher Sarah Mullucks. Teaching in a multi-year classroom of 20 upperprimary children, in a school with 110 students, Sarah introduced netball to a place where children knew only basketball and football. School attendance rates have increased for the students playing in the netball team, as well as for the younger students. Students in the lower primary classes see the enjoyment and success of the netball team and are keen to be involved themselves when they are in the upper primary class. Sarah has also seen improvement in the classroom with greater cooperation and teamwork, as well as increased confidence and leadership in the girls. The Wugularr team play in the Katherine Netball Association and two of the Wugularr girls have played at the NT Championships in the Katherine Netball Association representative team. The Katherine Netball Association competition has teams with both indigenous and non-indigenous players, all in the one integrated competition and Sarah Mullucks has been pivotal in the development of the inclusive ethos and culture at Katherine Netball Association. Sarah and the netball team have had an impact on both their community at Wugularr, as well as in Katherine and at Katherine Netball Association. Engaged students at Old Guildford Public School Old Guildford Public School has more than 400 students, including 98 per cent students from non-english speaking backgrounds. The School s underlying philosophy is that happy, engaged students are more likely to achieve their full potential. So when the opportunity to have an Inclusion NetSetGO program at the school came up, they grabbed it with both hands. "... it boosted their physical and mental health, provided fun and a sense of belonging." The netball program benefited the school s culturally and linguistically diverse students, breaking down language and cultural barriers. As the school s children discovered a love for the sport through the Inclusion NetSetGO program, it boosted their physical and mental health, provided fun and a sense of belonging.

6 MEET SOME OF OUR FUNDRAISERS The Confident Girls campaign has inspired some fantastic fundraising efforts in the netball community. Meet some of our 2015 best fundraisers: Young netballers unite for Confident Girls Teenager Caitlin Ardill and her netball club St Bernadette s in New South Wales raised $ for the Confident Girls campaign. Arena Jetz gather community to support Confident Girls Arena JETZ Netball Club in Melbourne s South East donated $1 for every registered player in their teams and raised more than $500 by donating the proceeds of a sausage sizzle and cake stall to the Confident Girls campaign. President Kerryn Weickhardt said, you develop lifelong friendships through netball and it s also a great network for women. Australian Netball Diamonds coach Lisa Alexander said success stories like Arena JETZ makes grass roots netball so strong. you develop lifelong friendships through netball and it s also a great network for women. It s fantastic to see local clubs like Arena JETZ getting behind the Confident Girls and giving their time to raise funds to allow their fellow netballers in disadvantaged communities to play and participate in the game that we all adore. Alexander said. Volunteers are the lifeblood of the Australian community and netballers, like those involved with running Arena JETZ, are special indeed. After seeing the campaign advertised on Facebook, 13-year-old Caitlin rallied her teammates and raised money through a combination of online donations and a raffle at the St Bernadette s junior presentation night. I wanted to raise money because I met a lot of my friends through netball..." Generous organisations, community members and Caitlin s teammates all donated items to be raffled on the night, creating a total of three prize packs with items including a pink game day pack, a signed and framed NSW Swifts poster and netballs. I wanted to raise money because I met a lot of my friends through netball and I wanted to give other girls the opportunity to meet new people and play netball too, fundraiser Caitlin Ardill said. I gained a lot from netball so it s nice to give it back to other people. Netball World Cup inspires Northern Suburbs Netball Association The Northern Suburbs Netball Association in New South Wales raised $2,950 for the Netball Foundation through the Confident Girls campaign. After hearing about the Foundation through the Netball World Cup, the Northern Suburbs Netball Association thought it was a great opportunity to align with the international tournament and raise money for netball. Through generous donations from sponsors and the local netball community, the Northern Suburbs Netball Association held an online auction that included items such as two Netball World Cup Gold Medal Match tickets, coaching sessions and items from local businesses. We rallied around and within 10 hours we had over items to auction on the day, Association Treasurer Renee Bates said. People should concentrate on the Netball Foundation so they understand what netball is about, and really not take for granted the opportunities that they have at their local netball club.

11 PRICELESS EXPERIENCES Up close and personal Taryn Campbell was one of the Netball Foundation s lucky donor winners, winning four court-side tickets and a behind the scene tour on day six of Netball World Cup Sydney Being a lover of all things netball, Taryn had no hesitation in donating to the Netball Foundation. Netball teaches young girls team work, leadership and gets them outside. It teaches responsibility and accountability, plus it helps them learn how to be a good winner and a good loser, she said. Netball helps people come together to work towards a common goal. Taryn wanted to be involved in the Netball Foundation as she wanted to give back to young girls. We often forget that young girls really value guidance from older females and I think helping disadvantaged girls, and giving them a life skill is really important to help shape their future. Currently travelling, Taryn has become very aware of the poverty and disadvantage that can exist, highlighting how much we sometimes take for granted being out on a beautiful netball court. I am currently in Sri Lanka where everyone plays cricket. I went past a school where the kids were playing cricket with a plank of wood. Not even a real bat and were having a great time. It made me really appreciate how lucky we are to have access to simple things like a ball and a post, she said. Netball is a really fun team sport where you can make friends for life! In donating to the Netball Foundation, Taryn was able to take her friends, Simone, Cindy and Mandy on an amazing experience. Tossing happy Simply by supporting the Confident Girls campaign on social media, Dianne Sylvester won two tickets to the Australian Netball Diamonds game on day five of the 2015 Netball World Cup in Sydney. She was able to toss the coin and meet Diamonds captain Laura Geitz and England captain Geva Mentor. I love, love, loved the opportunity to toss the coin and be a part of the Diamonds match, she said. I watch crazy amounts of netball and know all the players, so it was really special. Dianne brought her husband Jason along to watch the game, enjoying every minute being part of the Diamonds match. I love, love, loved the opportunity to toss the coin and be a part of the Diamonds match, Dianne believes that the Netball Foundation is a great way to get girls involved in the game that she loves. I absolutely love netball, and most sport in general, and hope that more kids can get outside, learn to enjoy exercise and hopefully get involved in a team sport with equal opportunity, she said. A mother-daughter date to remember By adding on a donation to tickets purchased to the Netball World Cup SYDNEY 2015 through Ticketek, Justine Whiting was another one of the Netball Foundation s lucky donor winners. Not having much knowledge of the Netball Foundation, Justine simply thought donating was the right thing to do. Justine s excited 10 year old daughter Emily was able to present the match ball at the start of the game, handing it to Diamonds centre Kim Ravaillion. At the end of the game, Emily was given the match ball to keep. Coming back to our seats she had the hugest smile on her face. It was the happiest I ve ever seen her. She was excited to see the best players, especially Laura Geitz. Just the way they move around the court, they are amazing athletes. Emily loves playing netball because she loves playing with her friends and this is why Justine thinks the Netball Foundation is so important. The Netball Foundation is great because it is looking after girls at both ends of the spectrum. I think it is really important to support both of them. Justine loves seeing Emily thrive through her netball. We love her developing through a team sport and keeping fit while she is enjoying herself, she said.

The SEIFA was created by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and uses information such as low income, low education and occupational status as markers of disadvantage. The Netball Foundation uses this information to identify where we can help girls that are unable to participate in sporting activities due to where they live, the schools they attend, a lack of financial support and a number of other factors that unfortunately stop them from joining in on the fun of playing netball. Communities with no existing netball programs are prioritised. HOW DO I APPLY TO THE NETBALL FOUNDATION FOR SUPPORT?

Kathryn Harby- Williams I owe so much to netball. Having lost my father at a young age it provided me with a sense of belonging - a second family. Netball...it s more than just a game. Anne Sargeant OAM Every day I am reminded how netball has shaped my life and shaped me as a person... The extraordinary women I have played with and against, or been coached by, have become my mentors, and teammates have become lifelong friends and my extended family.
