Forfeits: Teams do not forfeit unless agreed by the TIC or Sports Dept.
If your team cannot play on the designated game time, it is imperative that the team coach/manager contacts the TIC & KWS Sports Dept to organise the cancellations with the Netball centre and the affected opposition teams by no later 12:00 on game day. It is very important to do this through the formal channels to ensure the communication is circulated to the correct parties.

- Teams may not forfeit due to weather as netball is a winter sport.
- Players may be borrowed from a team in the grade below or equal but not from a team above. e.g a Year 5/2 team may not borrow a player from the Year 6/1 team.
