Sydney City Redbacks – Response to COVID-19

 

Like everyone else, the committee has been keeping a close eye on the news regarding COVID-19 and the measures people should take to reduce spread of the disease. Though we don’t tend to see 500 people at our korfball activities (yet), we have decided to cancel the next 2 training sessions (till 31st of March) and to re-evaluate as more news comes out.
As your committee, we are committed to ensuring the health and safety of our members. Though the disease would only be mild- if you get it – as a young person, we believe it is better to prevent than to take the risk.
In the mean time, please make sure you follow the directions as per the NSW health department and make sure you notify us if you have been diagnosed with the Corona virus.
Please stay safe everyone and do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Let’s make sure we all look after ourselves an each other!
Kind regards,
Your Committee

SCRKC tackles SUPBall

Rain delays pushed the club’s Christmas party out into 2019 which turned out all for the better as the sun was shining and the water was perfect.

The Redbacks tackled (literally) a new sport – SUPball (Stand Up Paddle Ball) at Manly in Sydney and can safely say that we’ve caught the bug for this emerging sport! Described as a combination of netball, water polo, lacrosse and rugby(!) we certainly did plenty of throwing, paddling, falling and tackling.

We’ll certainly be back for another game before the end of summer!

Sunday’s sausage sizzle sells out!

1008 sausages on a 30deg day made for a very successful fundraiser to kickstart the club financially for next year.

Drum roll….thanks to a lot of sausage turning, drinks fishing and great tune selecting, we made a profit of $2,045.42! The single highest value ever made at an SCRKC fundraiser!

Massive thanks goes to Graham Morris, Victoria Wah, Tania Jorge, Sam Turtle, Ben King, Ben Mizzi, Jela Redulla, Jupiter Segall, Mark Zilm, Olivia Legrand, Ben Brazier, Marleen Jellema, Stacey Longley and Rob Allen for their time spent volunteering at Bunnings Alexandria. What an amazing club effort!
