Morena everyone,

Thank you for registering with our Premier and Premier Reserve Competition this year.  This year, we have seen some unprecedented and unexpected competition within the grading of our Premier and Premier Reserve competition.  

The grading committee have had some sleepless nights, some very long discussions that have covered multiple days, and have had to make some incredibly difficult decisions.  It was always going to be a challenge with 24 teams trying for a space in one of the 16 spots that we had available.  Unfortunately some teams have missed out. We also have 6 teams that will be entering the first round of competition in a grade or level that they were not expecting, we acknowledge that for these teams, this has also caused additional challenges.

PPTANC Grading Committee would like to thank each and every one of the teams that have tried out for the grade, but would like to make special mention to the teams that were unsuccessful.  You played hard and we watched some amazing netball, and none of us wanted you to miss out.  We wish you all the best for your season ahead, and if you are joining us in the Saturday competition, we look forward to seeing you there.

For the teams that were successful in gaining a spot in the Premier and Premier Reserve competition, Congratulations and good luck for your season ahead.

Grading committee will meet again at the completion of the Promotion Relegation round to determine if any grading movements will be required for the Competition Round.  (please note - this is movement between Prem and Prem Reserve only - not A Grade on Saturdays)
