BLUE RIBBON: HDFNL round 6 winners
The round 6 winner of the Horsham District Football Netball League Blue Ribbon Foundation Spirit of Netball award is Harrow Balmoral 17 and under netballer Mia Rees.
Horsham police officer and Harrow footballer Tim Crick presented the award on Saturday at the Balmoral netball courts.
Rees's enthusiasm for netball began when she started playing with Harrow Balmoral in the Moddies.
Her dedication and love for the sport are evident in her commitment to every aspect of the game, whether it’s training sessions, game days or taking every opportunity to improve her skills.
Rees proudly represents Horsham District in its interleague team and enjoys playing alongside her U17s team as well as being part of the A grade squad.
She says she looks forward to continuing her development with the Harrow Balmoral Football Netball Club and contributing to its ongoing success.
Football winner
Dunstan, was also congratulated by Detective Leading Senior Constable Crick at Balmoral on Saturday.
The presentation to Dunstan was carried out before his game.
The under 17s vice-captain, Dunstan is absolutely delighted to have returned to Harrow Balmoral Football and Netball Club this season.
His last years have included playing for Lexton, Lake Wendouree and Beaufort, with many match disruptions from COVID and injuries.
He missed out on being selected for the Horsham District interleague team but was honoured to have been nominated by his club.
Dunstan is top age in Under 17s, playing alongside his former Balmoral Community College cohort including captain Archer Cameron, Archie Wardlaw and Leslie Grey.
He also understands the challenges that clubs like Harrow Balmoral face each week in filling a junior side.
Dunstan relies on the club’s bus from Hamilton to training every Thursday, and he particularly enjoys the chats with the friendly club members who volunteer to drive the return journey.
