Community Requests

Netball Queensland receives many Community Requests from within its own Community and the general public.

While Netball Queensland makes every effort to accommodate as many Community Requests as it possibly can, unfortunately, the reality is that not all requests received will be able to be met.

To assist in assessing this large number of Community Requests, please review the below guidelines and criteria before submitting your application.

Each completed Community Request will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by a staff member of Netball Queensland, and a response will be provided, once an outcome has been determined.

 

GUIDELINES

Please consider the following guidelines below, prior to submitting a Community Request:-

* Community Requests received from individuals or organisations based outside the areas and regions that Netball Queensland actively services, including those that fall within another Netball Australia Member Organisation's primary area of delivery, are unlikely to be successful.

* Requests for player appearances by the Queensland Firebirds' playing group are considered on a case-by-case basis.

* Netball Queensland does not provide tickets to Queensland Firebirds' matches or Queensland Firebirds' memberships.

* Netball Queensland does not provide monetary donations or sponsorship, irrespective of whether they are requested as 'in-kind' support or cash.

* Netball Queensland will not accept delivery of items at its Nissan Arena Offices to be signed by the Queensland Firebirds' playing group.

 

CRITERIA

1. Where your Community Request relates to a specific event, please ensure your request is submitted at least thirty (30) working days prior, with details of the event.

2. If the Community Request relates to a fundraising event, please provide detailed information on how the funds derived by items donated by Netball Queensland will be utilised as part of the application. Please note that a permit, may be required for your fundraising activities.

3. If the Community Request involves members of the Queensland Firebirds' playing group to attend, including, but not limited to, events, workshops, schools, please complete the appropriate webform. 

4. Schools making a Community Request should provide details on Netball Programs within the school, as part of the application, to assist Netball Queensland in making a determination.
