Bendigo Strikers are official

Following this week's announcement that Bendigo Strikers will officially join the Victorian Netball League (VNL) in 2024, our interim Board were quick to get off the mark with a huge amount of work to be done before the season begins.

Starting a club from scratch is no mean feat, with a lot of work to be done securing coaches, selecting players and appointing staff for next year's Championship and 23 & Under divisions. The Board looks forward to bringing the community along on the journey and we aspire to get many people involved both on and off the court.

We have an experienced group of community members that make up the Bendigo Strikers interim Board. This group has worked tirelessly over the last few months to bring our submission to life, ensuring the desired outcome was achieved.

It is with great pleasure we introduce our interim Board, photographed inn the heart of Bendigo. Chair - Andrew Cooney; Vice Chair - Carol McKinstry; Secretary - Teigan Redwood; Treasurer - Anita Harrington; General Board Members - Ashleigh Jane-Thompson, Ben DeAraugo, Meagan Keating, Melinda Keighran, Melissa Ryan; Ex-officio - Marg O'Rourke.
