Sydenham Kereru Softball - players wanted (u9 girls, u15 and u18 boys)
Hi,
Softball season is starting soon. Sydenham Kereru (based at Spreydon Domain) are looking for a few more players for some teams:
Due to an influx of girls, more under-9 t-ball girls are wanted to make a second t-ball team to allow everyone to get more time on the field. (Must be under 9 at 31 December 2019). Also looking for a couple more players for the under-15 boys and under-18 boys teams if anyone is interested. Games played on Saturday mornings (South Hagley Park for t-ball; Mizuno Ballpark in Pages Road for u-15 and u-18 boys teams). No prior experience necessary! Contact sksoftballclub@gmail.com for further info or to sign up.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
