Wellbeing

At Fawkner Netball Club, we believe that health and wellbeing are just as important as skill and performance on the court. We are committed to creating a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where all players, families, and community members can thrive.

We’re thrilled to introduce our new Wellbeing Officer, Nicole Payne, who brings a passion for fostering positive mental health and supporting the needs of our club community. Nicole will be working closely with members to ensure everyone feels valued and supported, both on and off the court.

Whether you need someone to talk to, resources for managing stress, or guidance on balancing life and sport, Nicole and the wellbeing team are here for you. Together, let’s build a club that champions connection, resilience, and a love for the game.

We pay our respects to Elders past, present and future, and also recognise the contribution that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people make to sport.
We also wish to highlight the power of Netball to promote reconciliation, enhance belonging and reduce inequality.
