Club History
Tingara Netball Club was established in 1969 as a not-for-profit sporting organisation. The Committee members, coaches and managers are all volunteers. Our Club colours are black and white. The Club’s name was adopted from the HMAS Leeuwin training centre called "Tingara", situated in Bicton. In turn, the name Tingara at HMAS Leeuwin was taken from the name of the Australian navy's first training ship (in 1912) called "Tingira", which is an Aboriginal word for "open sea".
Over the past 45 years, the Tingara Netball Club has become one of the leading Clubs in the Fremantle Netball Competition (FNA). The Club teams train mid-week at Brentwood Primary school and compete in the FNA competition at Gibson Park in East Fremantle on Saturdays from May to September. Tingara is represented across a wide range of ages, with teams competing from Novice Nippers through to Seniors. All players are graded prior to commencement of competition. In 2014, we registered 385 players over 44 teams.
Back in 1969, the Club was called Tingara Women’s Basketball Club. The Club took on it's current name in 1972. The Club’s colours have always been black and white. For the fashion conscious readers, the Club's first uniform was a shift with an inverted pleat made from 1 cm black and white gingham. The wide sailor collar was white with black bias binding. Skirt length had to be 25 cms from the ground when kneeling, which was checked on grading day by an official using a wooden ruler. Black bloomers, white socks and black sandshoes completed the outfit. Players were fined 20 cents for not wearing correct uniform or playing without a number.
The Club was formed by Shirley Sutherland and Val Booth and the following year saw the first year of competition. The Club's inaugural President was Shirley Sutherland. In 1972 the presidency was taken up by Shirley Parker, who then went on to serve as President for 15 years and is still Tingara's longest serving president. Tingara's original player registration was 71 girls. In 2012, the uniform was changed to the current style. Since the 1970's, training has been held at Brentwood Primary School.
The Club has a proud tradition of producing State representatives. Anne Fisher (nee Lawson), was in the state Under 17 team in 1980 and continued to compete in various state teams. Anne also captained the State Senior team in 1987/88. Please refer to the list of Tingara's State reprentatives above.
The Club has experienced a massive growth phase in the last few years, with its playing numbers rising from 231 in 2009 to 385 in 2014. During this period, the Club adopted new playing and coach/supporter uniforms, a new set of By-laws and Constitution and an electronic registration system. It also adopted social media and other electronic formats as convenient forums for communicating with its members and vast numbers of its volunteers. Membership of the Club's Management Committee now number in the mid-20's. The Committee is consistently seeking to improve the Club's performance on and off the court. The Club's Mission Statement, which follows below, is consistently referred to by its Management Committee as a guide for the values and polices adopted by the Club.
