Babble-on about the News!

Eyeball Nation work in conjunction with our good friends at Babble Management to find elite netball people who are not only willing but able to write for our famous newsletter. 2010 has begun in a big way with a great story in our Feb newsletter by Angus Harper on his introduction to Netball at High School level. Now with Babble co-founder Jane Altschwager playing with Central Pulse for 2010, we will find new and interesting tales coming from our Netball friends in New Zealand. So you'd better sign up or you'll miss out on all the action!

Taking it to the World

Caroline OBrien from Australian Group Travel Company has some wicked ideas about Netball Travel.  AGTC manages many cultural netball tours around the world per year and each one comes away a success story.  I was lucky enough to take a group of talented teen netballers to Singapore on one of her fabulous tours and Caroline was available 24/7 (even with the time differences) for any questions from the group or the parents back home.

This year she prepares to do the same with school netball tours to Canada and New Zealand and Eyeball Nation will be designing the teams T's and hoodies which they can then keep as mementos of their fantastic cultural and sporting experience.  They will have a GREAT time, Caroline will make sure of that!

To Market, to Market...

Eyeball had such a great time meeting so many netball enthusiasts at regional and metropolitan carnivals in NSW last year, that we are preparing to do it all again in 2010.  You will undoubtedly see us in the Netball Shop tent in NSW and we plan to attend a few Victorian carnivals as well. When we know EXACTLY when and where we will be we will let you know.  Can't wait to catch you're lovely smiling faces!
