It’s that time of year again when we can take a moment to celebrate and think about all those hours people within our clubs spend volunteering for netball.  It’s been two years since the last Oxfordshire Awards Evening, but it’s back this year on the 18th May 2012, and it should be better than ever!
So much has happened in the last two years, and it’s all thanks to the volunteers working within Oxfordshire (with a little help from England Netball, the South & our NDO’s!).  It’s great to recognise all the people that allow us to play, and that develop the game, and now is the time to say thank you in an evening of celebration.
The event is to be held at the Witney Lakes Resort, Downs Road, Witney, on Friday 18th May 2012.  The cost is £20 per person for a evening meal, with wine on the table, the awards and a disco to dance the night away – til 12pm anyway!  It’s a 7pm start for drinks before a 7.30pm dinner.
But for now all you need to do is put pen to paper & fill in the nomination forms for the volunteers in your club who make a great contribution to netball – you have just over a month to get your nominations in!
