Keeping our communities active

Our continued support of local community clubs and organisations remains a crucial aspect of our business.

It’s been a tough year for everyone, and it’s great to hear how much of a difference our support makes.

We are grateful to our Melbourne friends at Wilson Storage Southern Saints for their kind Thank You letter, received today. To everyone at the team — you’re welcome, and all the best for 2021!

Dear Jon,

We wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and the team at Wilson Storage for your unwavering support of Wilson Storage Southern Saints in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The support of Wilson Storage has enabled us to continue to support our coaches and athletes during the Victorian lockdown – with on-going support of mental health now being at the forefront of our minds.

After a full pre-season of training, and 6 games for our development teams we were set for a big year on court in the VNL this year. That was temporarily ended during Stage 3.

lockdown in Victoria – though we did get back to training mid-year. Stage 4 lockdown ended our 2020 season for good. The pandemic has had a debilitating impact on netball, all community and elite sport actually.

At this time, we’ve begun preparations for 2021 – all our coaches have been re-appointed and we’re now working through the playing group. Our governing body Netball Victoria has engaged Clubs in preparing for 2021 – our President, Kane Fetterplace sits on the advisory board for this. We’re quietly confident of taking the court again soon.

Finally, to reiterate Wilson Storage’s continued to support has enabled the continued support of our athletes and coaches, and ensured we have a base to build upon in 2021.

Thank you,

Kate Gray
Head & Championship Coach

Kane Fetterplace
President
