CitySide Sports began as a humble two-night a week netball competition with only 28 teams in January of 2007. Since then, we have grown four-fold offering 7 Ladies Divisions and 23 Mixed Divisions across 4 nights with 132 teams including our new Mixed Competition at Richmond. We believe we offer the best combination of mixing together "Social Sport" and "Value For Money" giving you and your friends a professional standard! But most importantly - Our Umpires Care! Now is the most exciting time to get involved as we commence to branch out into more sports and venues, and offer junior programs and weekend tournaments!
Our Umpires
We believe we have the most advanced umpiring team of any social competition. Our umpiring panel is headed by our Head Umpire Supervisor, Geoff Taylor who is a National B Badge working towards his National A in the Victorian Netball League (State League Ladies) and is also the Victorian Mens Netball League Umpire Director. We have 5 National B Badged umpires, and all other umpires are C Badged or working towards their C Badge under the guidance of Geoff. CitySide Sports have a very simple philosophy when it comes to our umpires: "We look after our umpires and in return they look after us, not the other way round!" Happy umpires, means happy teams. Teams pay good money to play and should receive umpires who are involved and in the right position at all times to make the best possible decisions - it's what the players deserve!
Costs
It costs just $35 to register your team into a season. Every week your team pays $70 per team, per game (includes $24 Umpire & Administration Fee). We supply bibs and balls to those who do not have free of charge!
