Each year, the Woolworths Pick Fresh Play Netball Grants support grassroots netball clubs and associations across the country. Since the launch of the program, Woolworths has provided funding to more than 311 netball clubs and associations, including Berwick Netball Club in Victoria. Club president Lani Mannays says the grants have made an invaluable contribution to support all members of the community to lead active lives and explore healthier nutrition. “The funds from the Woolworths Pick Fresh Play Fresh Netball Grants have had a huge impact on our club, helping us invest in new training equipment and kids; enhancing our facilities; and enabling us to run nutrition sessions for our junior and senior players,” says Lani. After winning the People’s Choice award in 2023 and earning a $20,000 grant, the club has invested in all new netballs, bibs, nets and a trolley to easily put netballs away after an action-packed game, allowing for more post-game bonding. They’ve also purchased an industrial blender, which Lani says gives the players “the right nutrition before and after games with healthy smoothies”, and freshened up the club’s facilities. “[We purchased] much needed aluminium seating and roller blinds for the club rooms to keep the heat out, and heaters for the winter to keep everyone warm,” says Lani. Clubs and associations with a Woolworths NetSetGO centre across the country are encouraged to apply at pickfreshplayfresh.com.au. Applications are open until 7 July 2024.
