NOMINATION FEES SUMMER 2022/23

• At the start of 2022, there was a change in how Netball SA structured Player Membership fees.
• Netball SA now charge an annual membership fee which will be charged separately from a club Season Fee via the new PlayHQ program.
• As a result, cost of participation will be charged in a two-step process.
• At the time of Nomination to Trial, players will only pay the Club Summer Season 2022/2023 fee via the Contax website.
• If selected in a team, we will require you to accept your selection via PlayHQ and within this form there may be Netball SA & Netball Australia fee charged depending on whether you have already paid this fee earlier in the year or not.
• Note:- The Netball SA membership fee is now an annual fee, only required to be paid once during a year and valid for all competitions in SA from 1/4/2022 – 31/3/2023 therefore the Fee covers both AMND Winter and City Night Summer Season in the same year. Players that played in a country Competition throughout winter will be given specific instructions on how to register if selected in a team.
• Netball SA Annual Membership fees for 2022 (Seniors $110 plus GST, Juniors $85 plus GST) and Australian Netball – Digital systems and services fee $3.36 plus GST).

We highly recommend “Liking” our Facebook site as this way you will see instant updates or last-minute changes.
• Trialling does not guarantee selection due to large number of participants – Contax is committed to ensure all players are provided equal & fair opportunity during trials in all grades with highly experienced selectors. Each player will be treated with respect and will have a minimum of 2 court appearances with at least one in first preference position indicated.  Due to position choices, some players may get more court time to ensure team is fully fielded to provide each player with trial opportunities in preferred position at each trial.
• Selection in a Summer Competition Team DOES NOT mean automatic selection in a team for Winter competition OR an equivalent grading expectation for Winter as Summer grading. This because many Winter players do not participate in Summer Competition.
