The Melton Toyota Riddell District Football have, for the first time, entered teams in the 2014 Central Highlands Regional State League netball competition, which kicks off at Llanberis Netball Centre in Ballarat on Friday 7th February in both the Open and 17 & Under age groups.
The Central Highlands Regional State League (RSL) is a competition administered by Netball Victoria, which aims to showcase the talented athletes in regional Victoria and provide access to a high performance pathway for athletes, coaches, umpires and officials.
The seven week competition will run on Friday nights at Llanberis Netball Centre in Ballarat, featuring teams from the Riddell District FNL, Ballarat FNL, Maryborough & Castlemaine District FNL and Ballarat-based Eureka Netball Club.
The RDFNL’s 2014 Regional State League Open campaign will be coached by Melissa Climas, who has had a long association with the Macedon FNC, one of the most successful clubs since the RDFNL re-introduced netball in 2002.
The open side (listed below) will be very strong, with a large core of the side made up from players who represented the RDFNL in their extremely successful Worksafe AFL Victoria Country Championships campaign in 2013.
The RDFNL will also field a 17 & Under team, which will be coached by Eliza Thornton, with Michelle Rix assisting.
