2 Welcome to Pleiades Netball Club. Over the next few pages we will try and describe the club in more detail. You should find lists of who does what, which leagues we play in, when we train and how much it costs. As with any club there are a certain number of administrative rules and regulations which you will find described, including who the club officials are, and how we try and run things.
